Wonder how long before they find out they made a mistake, and take the loss. I do ponder how much there selling it for.

I give it credit for the quality of install and clean look. I do like the way the the front end, wheels, and calipers look but I think the complete package (especially the roof) is a bit much for me but I would have loved that look when I was too young to afford such a car.

Looks like that color should be on a small coupe.

How is a dealership allowed to sell a car, where the windows are obviously illegally tinted? The windshield has a layer of 20%, it looks like to me. The black windows make the car look even worse.

Taking a look at it again made me realize the repressed pimp in me came out lol. It is too bright a red to be on this car.

I love it. We looked at matte red originally but went with "mint" green.

It shows the lines of the car nicely. But what a vulgar destroying of what was otherwise a very beautiful car. I have to sometimes wonder what goes through people's heads...

Does anyone think insurance could declare the car a total loss? LOL

meh, someone will buy it. and if not, they'll just take off the wrap and take the loss. they prob got some deal for the wrap anyway so the loss is chump change for a dealership if they go that route. but if they sell it for a premium...they'd make a pretty penny off this. high risk high reward i suppose.

Does it have a Cabernet interior? If so, then I dig it, haha. Needs some wheels and a drop to pull off that wild color though!

Nicely job done although I don't like the color.
