I've seen others that looked a lot worse. The graphics remind me of the 50th anniversary pace car package you could get.

Compared to most other cars like this one, I actually think this one isn't that bad. I wouldn't buy it, but I've definitely seen worse.

Think of all the work that went into the shine on that car, aside from the graphics.

are you saying that doesn't look good? I love that look? I don't typically like black wheels but the orange color and understated ground effects I think look AMAZING. Do you have any more details on this car?

Hideous in every way.

The "lambo doors" are the icing on the cake of this disgusting car.

There is something i like about both. These are just interesting cars...the first due to its elaborate mods and the red one is a c5 with c6 front and rear...intresting out of the normal mods found on craigslist. Like or not is your choice...
