    Like it, but I am a fan of green cars.

    But c’mon! What other color would match that Gucci interior. I like it just because they stuffed the 360 in there. I liked my little hornet but every time i saw my reflection driving past a storefront or something a couldn’t help but think of “Wayne’s World”. That 360 would give me a little more confidence

    Green isn't necessarily my FAVORITE color, but I could live with this.....
    Bidding's already up to $15k. Still has 6 days to go. I'd say that engine upgrade is proving quite profitable.....

    I always wonder why people buy these on BAT and then turn around 6-8 months and resell them. Do they just want a cool driver for a little bit? Are they hoping to flip it and turn a profit? Was the thought of driving the car better than the actual experience?

    It looks like this guy did a fair amount of work to the car. I'm still not seeing a $22k car anywhere in there though.
