The special chameleon color looks amazing! I heard it made an appearance at the FNM last night (03.04). Wish I could've made it

Yup I'm still putting the finishing touches on the other ones actually. I'll update the thread when I feel they're ready.

Yup it was! that is actually when I took this picture. Guy moved it across a few spots and I setup and snapped a few shots.

If it's anything like most boosted show cars it's not actually meant to run boosted.

(The 250 from 4 or 5 years ago that was boosted with nitrous for example- they told everyone "385 hp" when it barely could idle and was never actually dynoed... likewise that foxmarketing supercharged 350C from SEMA claimed a big hp number without ever actually being dynoed and AFAIK nothing ever came of the "kit" from it)

As always I'll be pleasantly surprised to hear otherwise but it's pretty rare an aftermarket boosted show car is actually mechanically sound.
