He was a jerk! He acted nasty because they decided to do mild graphics on the car.....come on dude...it's Chip Foose! Has he ever done anything that looked cheezy? NOT YET!

Great Car.....most ungrateful inside person. His actions took away from how excited I was for his wife.

Yup and he was also banned from another forum for scamming a sale (stock lights I believe).

they do screen but in this case the guys best friend works at Chicane and he asked if he could get the car on the show, some calls were made and there you are, the friend was shown being one of the rental guys giving the wife grief about the damage, so she was acting, because she obviously knew who the guy was, the whole thing was staged, the only one that wasnt in on it was Foose and thats why he was shocked to see a new car, Foose I am told hated working with the guy because he was ungrateful and hard to work with, as for the car, it has been detuned to running only 5lbs of boost (it was too fast for her), the ride height was raised (it was too low for her), the exhaust was changed (too loud), and something else was changed that I cant think of right now, and the car doesnt look that good in person.

OK that explains a lot right there, thanks for the info! I remember reading a big long thread on svtperformance.com I think and the husband said the car was picked for reasons he couldn't say. What a load of garbage. I was waiting for them to say something about how or why she was picked on the show, but they never said a word (like maybe she was recovering from cancer or something). I knew the guy was an idiot when he started complaining about graphics or whatever...where's Chuck Norris when you need him?! Roundhouse kick to the head!

What a shock! good thing she's got a day job, because she sure as heck can't act.

Someone who can afford an 05 GT and a 03-04 Vert Cobra does not seem very deserving to me. The tool of a husband was driving the Cobra… you will see it when you watch the show. I thought the show was for people that were down on their luck and more deserving. I only continue to watch the show because I'm a big fan of Foose.

I would like to hear what Foose has to say about the whole situation. I would be pretty angry if I was Foose and was left in the dark about the whole thing.
