Kill if it's a repost, but I couldn't find it.

can appreciate the work, but why make it look like something its not?


it would have been better if they custom did a one off front end.

I kinda like the side view

Put some proper wheels on it, and it might look like a factory effort. Front end is beyond saving though. I'll take a stock Civic, please.

^About all I can say, as well. Although I did find it interesting that Bugatti actually has a color called "Rape Yellow".

There was a lot of work that went into that car, and I would like it if it weren't a hatchback.

I have seen FAR FAR worse. In person. Not to mention the internet and the infamous riceboy page from 10+ years ago.

I agree. Take a cruise through Perth Amboy NJ and you'll see far worse than *.

You don't even have to look at the dates, the layout of that site speaks for itself.
