That scoop or whatever the heck it's supposed to be looks like the CDC Gauge pod.

Glad it's just it's 'attack mode' configuration.

What's with those wheels?

I see they have a crystal ball on the dash. Should have used it to see how badly this mode sucks! I agree Scott...they did so good with Heroes and now this.

The Mustang II now has a rival for the ugliest Mustang in its history.

Did the guy(s) that designed that even look at a single picture of a cool car first? Honestly i've seen Cub Scouts enter cars that looked 100 times better than that in soapbox derby races....

Anybody else get the impression somebody was trying to add a bit of a Mad Max vibe to the car?

1: Classic (if overdone) 'big and little' tire arrangement in an era when 'big and little' tire arrangements are hardly considered cutting edge.

2: A 'bug catcher' in an era when 'bug catchers' generally aren't found on anything not relegated soley to the strip or built after 1932.

They didn't do a very good job of it to say the least, but I think this might actually be someones idea of what a 21st century 'Interceptor' would look like. My take.....whoever came up with said idea should keep their ideas to themselves in the future.

I'm gonna still watch it to give it a chance, but Jesus what are they thinking? Why do they even have a stupid attack mode anyways. Just leave it as a stock KR. This whole CGI thing blows. I really liked that the old show actually showed how the car transformed. With CGI they just make it turn into whatever they want. There is just no imagination in that. The original kit didn't have an attack mode in the first few years. Years later they added super pursuit mode. Why have it now?

This pizzez me off. WTF is wrong with people??? This site is evidence of all the great work people can put into a car with a limited budget and have spectacularly customized their cars, and now NBC w/ deeper pockets than any of us puts together that monstrosity???
Jeesh, they've got to be making fun of us on the Honda boards now. :disgust: ... we need a new emoticon to express this situation - worse than the puking or head shaking.
Lambo doors and a bleacher seat on the back??? Seriously??? No only is the hood ugly, but it doesn't even fit properly.
Any idea why they dremeled the center stack and put those slots in there?
Please, make it stop, no more pics please.
