WOW...a car so super duper fast that it needs two sets of exhaust pipes.

Car looks great and I love the wheels. Enjoy!

Looks very nice....

Interesting concept with the third brake light.

I do have one question... When do you get to drive? Looks like the passenger gets to drive and you sit back and enjoy the view..

Those seats look interesting too -- traditional look with headrests (a la late model AC version). Can you post more pictures?

And does the manufacturer have a web site?

Nice ride, Alvin.

I think you should stick with the wire wheels,
Every man and his dog have Haliband replica rims.
It nice to see something different.
