Then you probably shouldn't have misled us by stressing that it's "not the color silver but MADE OF SILVER", as if it were the truth.
Engine:
Between the cylinder heads of the 4,2 litres V8-aggregate a compressor is put. Thus a performance of ca. 450hp and a torque of 530 Nm is reached which is leading to excellent driving performance.
4.2L V8 pushing 450hp... That's even more aggressive than the RS4. Now if Audi put that 450hp V8 into the RS4 perhaps the insane $80,000 price tag (C&D's estimate) is slightly more justified.

There is a tattoo shop owner in the Sacramento area that has a Viper with the same look. He drives it to the Kings games once in a while. He has a few eye-catching cars (classics and customs).

I'll see if I can snap some shots the next time I see some of them. He has a page on his website that has some pics. Unfortunately, my communist work is blocking his site so I can't check to see if the Viper pic is there. If someone else wants to check...

I'd hate to be next to or behind that car on a sunny day with no sunglasses

First thats a stupid idea to chrome the whole car.
Second how the heck can you drive that on a sunny day when the sun is hitting the hood.
