I just finally realized how atrocious the control setup is on the CTS. The radio looks like it's hanging off the ceiling. What a terrible look - but then again, you can't beat a GM interior!

Those used to be the shit in the 60's.
Kennedy was shot in a Continental convertible...a 4 door. Those cars are awsome.

This is why rappers and rookie NBA players should have financial consultants assigned to them the second they get the first check. Additionally, they should have to have this person grant permission before each cent is spent.

I don't know... I've seen worse, even on this site.

Like CL's with 20's (if not bigger) and enough ground clearance to be allowed entry into a monster truck event.

The conversion looks well done. I don't care for spinners, but once changed, it's a damn nice 4dr convertible. Talk about "unique".

The question is: did they reinforce the chassis? What happens in an accident where the car rolls over?
