Wow, for that kind of money you could buy a world-class exotic. Or you could jerry-rig a 20,000 passenger car like this guy did. I'm impressed only by the foolishness of the person who would buy that car at that price.

I seen the car and took pictures at Norwalk FFW last weekend and it looks good and very well designed. I think as SuperCars go this would make exotic car owners wanting one.

Yeah those are Welds. I have yet to find a place that sells them. But I did find out that they are custom offsets to make up for the size. 20 x 10 fronts and 20 x 11 rears. As I understand it they are over 1K per wheel.

Yea I am hearing that too with the over $1k per wheel. Forget that price.

I haven't seen any specs as far as HP and tourque yet.

The engine looks awsome besides those down draft tubes into the intake protruding really high out of the hood. Cut them down quite a bit and get a raised hood and that would be one insane sleeper. That sort of reminds me of that Civic CRX that had the turbo sitting 3' in the air out of the hood on the net. The rims look excellent along with the brakes.
