Nope he has different wheels and less (way less) miles on his, I think he bought it with 1200 miles. Or maybe it was 12k, don't remember.

That was my first thought when I saw the rear tail pipes - then I read the milage.
You are thinking of Mark Robinson.

Great looking car. What's special about the exhaust? Also has it been lowered or something? I love the way it looks. Jason

It has two after market mufflers hanging down BELOW the bumper cover ... like they do not fit ! and does look like it has been adjusted a bit lower.
