Not my favorite, but damn ( said in best will smith voice )
That car if its still a car is just FUBAR,
I hate tacky which might be subjective to personal tastes but if its held on with double sided tape its not my cup o tea,
If a modification doesnt flow and or have a function,
Its not my cup o tea,
I see lots of customs i just dont want to own but might have fun driving to a cruise this thing i would actually be embarassed to stand next to,
But in the end im super flattered you though of me...

I thought you'd like this as we've gone back and forth on customs in the past. I was looking for a good C3 Split Window conversion picture when I came across this and immediately thought of you.

The prancing horse tips the car's identity and all of you should be ashamed for not catching this- it's obviously a spy shot of the latest Ferrari!

I'm sure the guy who built it is very proud of it. Imagine how scary it would be to see inside this guy's mind!

Maybe his goal in creating the car was to make it look stupid and get a laugh?
