Wow, um...not sure what to say about that other than I guess the paint job is ok. $20,000 dollars worth of ok, no.

Long live the C4!

Leader? You put a little somethin' extry in yer coffee this morning? That paint job is hideous. Your red beast and all you have done to it is where it's at.

Looks like the idea was to (a) remove the original logo to (b) match the wheel logos.
OK - saw the C5 nose and tail... no thanx.

The car needs more logos other than the C4 logo. Fail!

They just misplaced a decimal. They're only asking $2190 for it. Even then......

True beauty is skin deep but ugly is to the bone.

Maybe, just maybe they did the paint job themselves, and if asked to do it on your car, they'd want $20,000? But no, doesn't float my boat.

The best part of the ad is "people are always stopping and asking to take pictures". I bet they are right after they say to themselves "WTF? I need to get a picture of this Nobody will believe this mess if I just tell them!"

Probably better of buying a C5 rather than converting a C4 to look like one. Ill pass on this one.
