It's bastardized. Sounds like some kid selling it ...hopefully he'll find another kid to dump their money into it.

Sometimes it's better to have low class instead of no class.

"It does have some minor body damage around the hood scoop and side battery compartment."


I guess the minor damage to that horrendous scoop is what makes it a "must see" that is "definately (sic) worth it"....


I feel for the C4 guys as the values on C4's are terrible. This idiot I feel sorry for because he's an idiot....

Hmmm my jet ski broke.... it's too cool to throw away.... maybe I could flip it over and use the bottom for something......
bathtub?.... nahhh
giant shovel? sure, maybe...
Whoa! HOOD SCOOP!

Seriously though, I did some dumb things to cars when I was 17, so I suppose if I was 17 again I'd say "Whoa, HOOD SCOOP!"
