    If someone spent even $60,000 making a 1995 Civic look like a 2009 Civic all of you would call that person a dipshit. I fail to see the difference here... and if you still can't comprehend what I'm trying to say, then I'm fairly certain you're a special needs child, thus out of respect I'll yield the argument to you. Good day.
    I don't think she was trying to replicate anything actually it looks like she was just trying to make a car as unique and as close to her preferences as she could and it looks like she did a damn good job. If I were in a position where I was going to be changing a car up that much I wouldn't use a brand new car as a base either, I would either buy a salvaged SL or an old SL like she did because since 90% of the car is being swapped out anyway what is the point in buying a brand new car?

    IMHO I never liked this car. But I respect what she did with it. GLWS. And can't wait to see what's next

    true enough, but look what that does for the business. buying a higher mileage car for the build allows for more money to be spent on making a truly car which is what they are all about

    The link that he posted was for an SL 63 stock, for $150k. I'd much rather have the SL666. 750HP/800ftlbs on a custom supercharged engine + widebody kit. Now the interior definitely isn't my taste, but the wheels, stance, engine, and body... Yea, better than a stock SL63 that looks like an upgraded Boxster...
