Nice looking car but that's a tough pill to swallow.
$49K and it probably no faster/marginally faster than a stock GT (20" wheels cancel out some of the gains from the FR exhaust and cold air kit)
I do like the hood (available through CDC) and the upper grille.
That paint job for less than $5K seems reasonable too.

Paying for looks, name, and exclusivity...my car is faster/handles better for half the price, but which will be worth more money 20 years from now? Which one will get more attention? For some these things are more important. I enjoy my "plain old" GT.

Some times too much attention is not a good thing, know what I mean.

Barrett,
Nice pics, I came up and looked at it last week. I was really suprised there are no performance mods on the car. Looked sweet, but you are right about our cars out performing it.

PACETTR - thanks for posting the pics - guess someone will buy that - but I have to be honest - not one aspect of that car is appealing to me.....looks like a poser car if there every was one - especially since there isn't any additional power to back it up....not flaming....JMO

I wonder what that front bumper would look like with a chin spoiler? Hmm. Hey Pacetter can you do some investigating for me? See what the availability of that front bumper is. That is if you get a free moment some day.

This car is no different than a Stage 2 Roush or a Saleen...Small hp gain, better suspension, and LOOKS! I wonder how collectible this car will be in the future. Chip Foose is HOT right now; seems everything he touches is cool. Glad you all are enjoying the pics!

As already mentioned, 49k way too much! Roush, or perferably Saleen, would be my choice for that much money. Don't get me wrong, I like Foose- Love the TV show OverHaul, but $49,000 American money- NO WAY!

Not available as of yet, but they are discussing the possibility of selling them.
