Interesting colour combination. Not for me, but each to their own.
I take it they ran out of money and couldn't afford to do the boot?

Bodykit Manual Extractors Wheels maybe... Just the rest needs burning.

Dont forget if it goes above $1800 you get a t70 turbo and manifold..
MN, turbo is prob why it has had battery moved to boot.. I actually reckon it would look pretty sweet in that colour.. Yes it is the BA colour.. Pics just dont do it justice.. Cheers, Nik

Seen worse, it just needs some work to bring it up nice.
I reckon the engine is on an angle because he just revved it, there must be over 400kw in that beast! Interior and engine bay look pox tho.
