Thoughts on this Renntech e55

Just found this on Ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...&category=6335

No offense if this anybody on here's car, but man those wheels are fugly. Other then that I don't know what to think of the car. A ton of money spent on go fast parts, but the car just doesn't look to very clean.

hmm. car looks ok, minor body work needs to be done. but stage 5 is just sick. I wonder if that car was involved in accident. Kind of too cheap, fully loaded(keyless,navi,cooling) with low mileage only $33k. Probably that car was raped badly by an owner and now he wants to get rid off, just a guess..

Your worst nightmare...
If not mistaken this car was sold at a salvage auction, I think they put it together and now they are selling a bottle of Lube to go along with it.

Talk about the front not lining up...where do you get these people.
