Was cool and made me buy one!

Im so terribly confused by that. I see lots of cool parts that would go together for a very nice result, the ducktail, NACA duct, the big rivetted arches... And then you look at the whole and its just WTF confused
I can´t see one cool part on it.

Shane Lynch's one?



Built by Z Cars, but the interior was re-trimmed by Kahn...



...and then Huxley Motorsport made the new arches for it.



I particularly like the CNC'd Spirit of Ecstacy hydraulic handbrake!

The problem is that all the decent modifications have been done to death, so in an attempt to be original the yutes of today are doing the only thing that is left. The only thing that is left if stupid and ridiculous and boy are they embracing it!
