under the hood is fine... the wheels are gorgeous. all you who hate chrome. not me. the other add ons have to go. even the seats suck, but you guys are very good at turning a car like this into a masterpiece so at this price someone is gonna have a lot of cash leftover to unbend her... i am all tied up at the moment otherwise...

Though both are ugly, the orange one is clean and well done.

Yes the owner must be saying "Dear Santa I would Like ......." or maybe Santa did not deliver for him last year hence why he is trying to sell

I'd give it F for Fail - what a load of S41T

I have to say though, the quality of the work done to that 928 is spectacular, even if hideous. I like a few of the lines, but overall...........ehhhh........

Well it's not a fair contest. The 928 started as........ well.......... a 928........ It's like spraying cologne on a piece of turd. It's still a turd. Albeit, a Creed Green Irish Tweed wearing turd, but a turd nonetheless.


Just poking fun, carry on

I read a funny short story by Kurt Vonnegut about buying an envelope. His wife urged him to order a big pack of them and have them sent to their house, but he decided to walk to the store and buy a single envelope. He runs into an old friend on the way and chats with a young lady, and then goes home with his one envelope, richer from the experience of leaving to buy it. I thought about how I get movies off Netflix now instead of engaging in human interactions at the video store, and for one moment missed that I used to go out to pickup movies. Then in the next second I remembered that nothing good ever happens when I go to the video store. The only thing waiting for me at the rental store is a shortage of parking and a clerk who tells me that I have late fees on Blade and Blade II.

Why take a well designed Porsche and make it look like a Toyota or Honda? Buy the damn Japan product and rice it out.

Maybe the Civic was too much to buy up front!
