That guy would be no problem for our E. All racin' is over once the negotiations are over (don't you watch MTV). We'd get at least 2 or 3 car lengths plus the start. He'd never catch up.

It might be fast, but you can't polish a turd.

That car is from my city. The owner used to own the local Hyundai dealer and a motorcycle dealership. I think they sold off the Hyundai dealership since it has a different name now. I agree with the "you can't polish a turd" comment, but its still damned impressive.

Dude,

Don't you get it? All you have to do is install a Hunyndai engine in the glove box, divert a drive train to the front wheels and you're in!
