Cool technical feat, but why? To give a prospective owner a tour of the car?

Meko, that maser sounds SICK....for some reason I dont like the styling on the QT....I like the GT a lot though....

there is a guy in my subdivision who has a QT...another guy in the neighborhood (I think he works at the same company I do as well) has a GT....a white one....I have seen his car at work and seen him driving in the neighborhood....sounds intoxicating (in a good way)....
