Quote: "For your viewing pleasure." Hmmmmmmm........ five seconds into it I had to hit the Mute button. Definitely NO LISTENING PLEASURE. In fact, the "music" is s#*t, IMHO, but to each his own.

Nice looking car though, everything looks good. from the paint to the funny wheels. All the "floating" wheels I've seen before looked like crap, but these are quite different. Not that I'd do it to my car, but this is a tasteful customising job.

Regards from Down Under.

Viewing pleasure???? Not for me. Listening pleasure??? Not for me either. I hit the mute immediately too. I did however watch the entire video through. Had a good laugh. At the end, there are other videos that come up and spent some time watching those too. There is a new Mustang painted slime green that has 30" wheels on it. I did not link to it because of the language. Kids with pockets full of money.

Eddie, I thought I was about see a new video of your car, but instead I see a
lime green clown car, I thought for sure I was about to witness 26 clowns
climbing out of the box in the back. LOL

How about a real nice video of your car out on one of these nice warm spring days.

Riggs.

I guess I should have named it something different. Maybe Displeasure.

Maybe we should start a thread with the LS Swap cars running in it.

I wouldn't be able to participate in the LS video, because I still haven't gotten it to start yet, maybe after I get the ECU back from the tuner.

Not for me either.
I hate the music (shut it off).
I CAN deal with the color (after all it's not my car).
I CAN deal with the wheels painted to match.
I CAN'T deal with 26" the large diameter wheels (but I could if they were only 20s).
I CAN'T deal with the wheel design (it looks like it came off the ceiling of a mid '70s "disco").
Porsche builds the GT3rs in a color that's close to "antifreeze green" and it's "hot" so it's not the color. It's the execution.

Dats funny, Riggs and agree. Eddie's car plays real music and looks much better.

The car has "RIP" on both seats with different names. Gee, wonder how those fine upstanding individuals could have met such an early demise?
