Not too crazy about the styling but those exhaust tips are a great touch, makes the car look alot more aggressive.

Similar to the abominations Gemballa used to make out of Carrera gt's ( thats probably why he was shot! ) .

Taste is obviously a personal thing but to me they are repulsive , tasteless monstrosities that look like they were " styled " by a 5 year old .

( Sorry ) .

I agree, these cars are utterly disgusting. Completely overwrought, tasteless ostentatious and an epic fail

Reminds me of that old internet image of a graph with Taste on the y-axis and Disposable Income on the x-axis. It was a bell curve. I find their choice of name for their company HILARIOUS. If they had gone for a simple wide-body look, a la SLS GT3, I would probably be on board.
