That shift knob is stupid looking. Otherwise...pretty sick car. I'd bid, but will not likely be able to pay what the car will ultimately sell for.

I think it would be interesting to see this car roll through Barrett Jackson.

Nobody will ever complete a sale for this prize on Ebay. I always wonder why people invest so much time and $$ in a car like this and then try to sell. Money and alcohol makes us do crazy things. Good luck with sale.

Looks like something that was built by a ricer that grew up and won the lotto to me. I've been told I have weird tastes at times and I like to complain so take it for what its worth. lol

There was definitively a lot of money invested in this car. I like most of the mods

I think most of it is pretty horrid, especially the seats and floor mats. But whatever.

First off...a girl did this? Friggin' awesome period. I don't personally *like* the billet work...but it's still bad ***. I'm not a fan of the seats...other interior components either...but I respect them. I can't find a hot girl in Atlanta that can change a tire. So I go for the hot ones and change them for them.

The exterior...however....I love. That is BRUTAL and dialed in. Remove a few decals...done. I absolutely love it. NASTY!

I like the exaggerated mod prices.

They may have just waaaaay overspent on the modifications. Let me rephrase that. The owner overspent on this car regardless.

I like the exterior but the interior, in my opinion, is absolutely horrid. It would take a lot of money to get the interior to a palatable level.

Car's like these you just keep. It's obvious the owner spent a lot of time and money in this car. At the end of the day, any dealer will look at it as an 03 SL with 90K miles..

I would strip all the crap off it and pant it BLACK. Murder out the interior and the wheels, and slam it. Then we can talk about $45K!

Tasteful modifications was not their strong point.
