"Wait...could be a third thing. They are making a Jurassic Park 4 and they want to use that car instead of the similar painted explorers."
HAHA. That is a good one, and the golf ball one. Of course if I did something like that I would end up hitting one of my neighbors in the head with the ball like in Happy Gilmore

Ok, originality, I'll give him that, THAT'S IT!!!!!!!! I knew a guy how riced out a 4th gen Trans Am. Needless to say, IT self destructed on the highway, no, it didn't blow up, but the engine compartment caught on fire (talk about Pearl Harbor). I guess the car said "WTF is this Japanese crap under my hood, oh well..... self-destruct mode... activated... LATER!!!!!!!!!"
IMO that car is pretty sweet on the outside, I know its a thirdgen and the guy made it look "non thirdgen" but it worked, and I think it worked well. The only thing I dont like on the outside is that wing, I think it would look fine with a lower wing tho,
I totally agree on the engine compartment/interior side that most people have in this thread. I also dont like the exhaust tips on this particular style of the car, (maybe a 4.5 inch coffee can? jk) I think it does look like ****, but it still looks good, next thing that car needs is a 6 speed LT1 swap, and a trendy ***** interior.
