Why Would You Do This to an Innocent Ford Mustang?





I can never figure out how people determine values for their "custom" creations. With the car you see here, it was probably through a heavy dose of LSD.

This monstrosity used to be a Mustang. However, by the looks of it, this “car” should be inhabiting your local aquarium. It’s strangely fish-like, but not in a good, slick kind of way. It’s more like an ugly grouper or some weird fish that lives at the bottom of the ocean and never sees the light of day.

However, I digress. This “custom” Mustang is called the MUIA. I have no idea what that stands for. Maybe “Massively Ugly in Appearance”? Anyway, the owner of this lovely creation wants a staggering $28,500 for it, and says it (somehow) has an appraised value of $75,000. Sure it does.

People, if you are going to create some one-off thing that’s built just for you, remember that you’ll sell it for a tenth of the car’s original value. Not more. You’ll never get more.

While that is fugly as hell, the front end looks relatively well done. Though its hard to tell from just a few pictures, it looks like the front end took a pretty good amount of fabrication skills to get good, clean, symmetrical lines and curves. The rear end looks like he said "f it, I just want to get this thing done."

Looks like something out of a cartoon. What moron would do that to a Mustang? What is it a Lotustang? Someone needs to be slapped up side of the head.

You must be the builder. Cause that child would only be beautiful in its fathers/mother eyes.


I do appreciate the amount of work that went into it, but I wouldn't have done it.


But ya ok Kudos to the builder :-)
