Well, he's right. The pictures do speak for themselves. I particularly like the coat-hanger roll hoops.

Hey, have you never watched roller derby??? Some of those fat chicks can skate!! I bet the car doesn't handle that well....
That is exactly what I just said when I looked at the pictures... they really do speak for themselves!

I think they left the decimal point out from between the 5 and the first zero.

$75.00

Just one word! Why?

Its a shame most of these porsche knock offs are glass. If they were steel at least they would be good for scrap

Not to prolong the agony of looking at this thing, but does anyone see any air inlets (or outlets) anywhere on the body? If there's a radiator in the front I don't know how it is supposed to work.

He says it's been a while since he's driven it and also that it spent its whole life in a trailer. Go figure.

Given the VW genesis, I assume the body kit was designed to accommodate a VW engine and that the V6 was an "option" so it was up to the builder to put in the vents - front and/or rear. I wonder if the engine was ever fired up in the chassis.

I wonder how that VW transaxle will hold up to the torque from the 3800 engine ... I don't recall the tranny in my bug of old being very sturdy at all, and I just had a 1650cc in it. Sure is likely to have "entertaining handling" at any rate, which will remove it from the street in no time...

Elliot Spitzers expenditure was about the same. I no longer think he overspent.

If they were going to put a 231 V6 in there, why not at least make it a Grand National engine? Same exact engine just with the turbochargers & strengthened internals. It'd easily have fit and those things can make silly power.
