This is not a "HIN Event" for crying out loud.... This is SEMA.. Look it up!!

People in this sector don't expect to see whats already out there..
They expect to see NEW concepts and NEW Innovative ideas...

Javy - Great pictures and the WoW factor on this car is even more amazing in my opinion!!!

Love the new set of pics!!!

Thank you

Joe Z
Some stuff I agree with, some I don't.
A one-off car is more than a car with a kit and body mods. It's a complete take-off, the donor car being hardly recognizable.
I agree that something like this is exactly what was expected when the car was donated. Something expressive. That goal was achieved.
Look, the car is exciting to look at but I mainly like cars that although different, can be driven everyday without making a spectacle of itself or it's owner. I shouldn't have thought of it that way when it wasn't meant to be that. It's a show car. A good one cause I'd gawk at it for hours.

In my opinion, it looks Great & they did exactly what they were set out to do..!!

Yes....I think we realize that it's not a HIN event, but the lines just don't accentuate the lines of the car. The exhaust looks kinda funky too. You can produce something way out....and still keep the flow of the original car.

Just my $.02

Alot of you may say that its overdone. But that is exactly it. This car is meant to be over the top and crazy. They have come up with something that looks fantastic, just like the new Reventon that Lambo has built. But personally, every part on this car looks infinitely better than the ones on the IS-F.
