Pretty impressive effort. Looks good, but it ain't getting near 260 mph...

I can imagine that car at a red light ready to race, and the honda civic next to it blowing the doors off it, I want one.

Amazing work, but I would think that after all that he might have done a bit
more with the drive train, like a 351 worked to deliver 500+ hp to make it
move a little better. I am sure he would have less trouble getting his money
out of it with some performance available. Look out for his next car!

I can appreciate the work that went into it. It would be nice if it had more oomph though!

Too bad about the underpinnings, but it sure looks good. He could just cruise around coppin' an attitude like racing mediocre, mere-mortal cars is way beneath him and his supercar. If he scoffs, rolls his eyes and shakes his finger at all the plebian peon stoplight challengers, no one will ever be the wiser as long as he never pulls up anywhere for real close scrutiny.
