Someone with an artistic flair got carried away.
With the right color paint, it could be a show stopper.
We have all seen worse.

That definitely looks like someone tried to copy at least part of the Corvette Summer car...then they just got plumb silly with it!(as IF)

I bet there's 50 pounds of bondo on that thing!

The one in Mike's post ain't all that bad...just needs a little wax, that's all...

Man somebody really wanted their spoilers SUPERSIZED. I just wonder if at some point a blower was supposed to be or had been peeking out of that hood...?

Actually, except for the wing, i kinda like what was done to the rear.  I have never been a fan of that style of headlights myself, but then again I also didnt like the Duntov Turbo headlights either, so beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I also thought it looked a bit like the Corvette Summer car.   He just went a bit overboard with the spoilers!
