designer/builder??

last time i checked design was by Butzi not friggin ThunderRanch

considering they bloody discount em 50% , it's easy to tell how much markup they charge for the final series at 100K a pop: well over 50%
suckers born every minute...


the only good thing i can think off, is that it's not based on a Pontiac Fiero...

Smells like a company in deep doo doo. You don't do stuff like like with cash in the bank and a healthy order book.

See if Mr. McBurnie will secure your deposit with his house.
