New guess - it's a Nissan GTR. Has the traction needed for the Vancouver weather, and he has never posted about a Nissan before. His end game is 1000+ whp on a built, stroker motor and it's yellow!

So....when do I get the Bourbon?

He's thinking about going to the ArtCenter of College of Design in Pasadena, CA to study automotive design when he can afford to do so. We actually met him when he was only 17 in high school. and he got grounded by his parents for a few weeks for skipping church and going to Super Car Sunday lol. He really has a lot of knowledge and talent for his age and it's honestly so encouraging to see young people with so much enthusiasm for the auto industry and working in it.

I've included some pics of the end results and the work in progress. He mentioned that the Porsche badge on the hood was crooked and straightened it out for us.















That came out nicely, looks good!

Interesting reasoning - it does have superior traction, alas, the bourbon is still up for grabs...

^ Ok... I think he already has some kind of Subaru. Not going to be another P Car - already has a 996. Next guess is: Mercedes Benz turbo v8 AWD model sedan (he already has a big truck so no SUV).

Can we guess multiple times?
Figured it was one per per...
If so, I'll keep my thinking cap on.
