Yeah, I agree with what seems to be the minority here that the car would look fine with some minor adjustments. Basically, get rid of the humongous wing and every scoop that is on it. I know at leaste the scoops on the hood are functional, but it would look better getting rid of those and replacing them with louvered sections (similar to some of the Rousch setups). The scoops on the rear windows are pointless unless you're trying to look retro (clearly this isn't) so ditch em. The scoops on the side panels near the door... unless they pass through to cool the brakes, are pointless.. so let's ditch those. And then the wing on the back makes it look the rice-iest so get rid of that. What you're left with isn't so bad. Does it have a side exhaust or are the holes on the skirts purely cosmetic? If it's cosmetic, those aren't needed either.

I like it.....I definately wouldnt mess with it.....

I just think they're missing something under the hood, doesn't seem like they have enough stuff in there, maybe they should consider putting a couple more power adders in there....and take off those hideous looking turbo with all that chrome and give them to me

I dont like the outside of the car but the twin turbo setup is awesome and I would love to have it.

I'm surprised no one's mentioned that scary *** front bumper assembly...looks like ants' jaws. The turbo ducting sticking through the hood reminds me of maybe the owner of this atrocity being handicapped and his/her wheel chair doesn't fit in the trunk so they shoved it in the engine compartment. Well, with 900 claimed ponies, I guess they can choose whatever look they please. Yes it's very unappealing to me, but I'm sure there's uglier ones still to come.
