I think I have seen that car.

When I saw one (either it or its twin), at a DE at HPT, it had a 3.2L engine.

All it needed was neon lamps under it and gas shocks or air springs or whatever
they use to make the "low riders" go bouncy, bouncy.

I think it must have been built for a Miami Pimp......not that I know any.

That car is the new hotness from the M-I-A. You had better realize that this is the real deal. New battery and non-practical top. You Porsche snobs don't know a rocket when you see it.

I've been thinking of welding an ironing board to my rear deck. What are the aerodynamic properties of ironing boards in this application and at what angle should I mount it?

IT'S TOO BAD THERE AREN'T MORE TWELVE-YEAR-OLDS WITH $20,000 TO BLOW ON THESE CARS.

IS THIS POST MORE EMPHATIC AND CONVINCING, BEING IN ALL CAPS? DOES IT READ LIKE I'M YELLING IT, SLOWLY, AT YOU?

EVIDENTLY THIS IS HOW YOU SELL CRASS ABOMINATIONS OF AUTOMOBILES.

That car thar is the 305 representin'

Total Hotness, I can see it turning heads as it cruises the strip in the Fort at midnight on a Saturday night.

A Porch snob could not appreciate all the hard work and thought that went into this fine example.
