saw this car the night before Import Alliance downtown Nashville(where I live). There was only one other thing that got EVERYONES attention, and that was one of my buddies chasing (on foot)trying to whoop one guys *** for running up and down the parking lot revving, squealing tires and trying to "drift" his 4 door ricer accord with people hanging out the sunroof, around a lot of expensive cars!

car looks awesome in person and sounds even better!

No that isn't bill goldberg...he's not one of those shorty celebs like sylvester stallone...he's 6'4 after I did a google search and I'm pretty sure he has no tattoo on the back of his right arm. The guy does look familiar and I know I've seen his show on spike, I just don't know the dude's name or show he is on?

What's in the trunk, everyone's all crowded around?

Reminds me of chief wiggum....http://www.moviewavs.com/php/sounds/...&file=show.wav
