The ride would be worse than a Nissan Z. I would get a headache in just 10 minutes.

The gold stands out a tad too much, needs to be more of a subtle gold like noble gold color, that just looks more like anodized orange almost, overall looks good.

Car looks sick man, great job. Ilike the color combo. Im sure you get tired of everyone talking about pot holes and tires and how its gonna be tough to drive. Im sure if you have 22" rims that you have enough since to know how to ride and drive with them.
