If a Pontiac is a plastic covered Chevrolet, what would this be? The plastic behind the front wheel well looks like it was designed by the same person that designed the Chevy Avalanche! The 20 inch wheels would be for show only - they probably wouldn't last 1000 miles on the road.

Some of the cars I have seen don't 'light my fire'. The Fabulous however does not even inspire me to get the box of matches.

How much is the conversion?

Talking Conversion Cost

I believe the conversion cost for Fabulous runs above $3K (not including tires). Japanese style. Hm... no one can say that it won't become popular in the future. It totally depends on how distributors market the product.

that is by far the ugliest E class I have seen so far. Maybe its just because I like my cars mostly stock, unless it were to be brabus.
