Call me crazy, but I only like stockish looking cars with clean looking new rims on them. Maybe its just my admiration of the "sleeper effect", but damn I think that thing is ugly. Red interior?

Despite the fact that the nose of the car might not be the prettiest, it was designed to make the car more aerodynamic. Obviously, looks were a secondary consideration, as lowered drag and front end downforce were the prime considerations. Secondly, although you scoff at 500hp today, back when that car was new, that was a lot of power.

That car is a rare piece of 4th gen history....

DJ&F international. This what you are talking about as it really does not look that different from a stock TA Vert (except for the vert cover/spoiler of course)?
