Wow is that ugly or what? If you want to stress your originality and non-conformity, wear red socks. Why take it out on that nice car

*Gags*. I NEVER understood why people put both the hood ornament and the the 3 pointed star on the grill at the same time. Pick one or the other! Those white rims are nasty too.

I'm sure when I was 8 I would have thought that thing looked sick. Definitely a go for those who want to protect their virginity.

I wouldn't really call it "heavily modded". It looks like a nice white S with awful wheels and grille inserts. They could do worse.
