I love the performance but damn is that thing ugly as hell.

danielw · 01-03-2011, 07:44 AM

I really don't understand why people say this car is ugly. It's a little over the top, but it's a show car and its executed perfectly. And for the record we don't know how it performs yet. Can't wait to see vids.

RCZ · 01-03-2011, 08:46 AM

Its the wheels man, everything is great and then the wheels come out of nowhere. I guess that's the point? To be shocking? You can be shocking and look good though...IMO they stick out too much and the color is just wrong. If they did the same wheels in gunmetal or maybe even another bright color or ,hell, maybe even in neochro it might work. Gunmetal with a neochro lip. I don't know. I don't mean to be a debbie downer, but its an awesome build except for the wheels.

I guess if you look at it from the point of view that the car has to be striking and memorable to be a good show car then they definitely got the job done.

KaienZ34 · 01-03-2011, 09:06 AM

He'll have new wheels on it soon enough.

Chris_1 · 01-03-2011, 10:45 AM

Some serious performance, great to see it on the mag but I agree on the wheels. They are great wheels, just color is mehhh. Bullitt, I swear if you dont have one vid of you just smoking the tires when that car is running, I will hunt you down.

That car is waiting to be beaten on when its done, dont let it be a show car only PLEASE.
