Somebody's a badge collector.

'least the body gaps are tight.
 
Is that really a Bentley? Jeez. :rolleyes:
 
It's kinda like the "Subaru WRX STi Impreza Integra Type-R GT-R". Which was, in fact, a regular, non-Evo Lancer.
 
I'll answer my own question... that is in fact a real Bentley it looks like.

Poor thing.

Kia really did copy it hard core though...

Lada or not, I thought this was awesome until I got to the back:

The lack of taillights adds 15 horsepower, yo.
 
Uh...seeing as that car has registered plates...how the hell did he get away with taking his taillights OUT?

The wing needs endplates...and a splitter up front. and more angle.

Also note what appears to be a "WRX" badge on the grille

You noticed that too? It looks like he even may have mounted it backwards (which I can understand to an extent, as its better than mounting it upsode down).
 
Loser Indeed! It doesn't even LOOK all that special. and a starting bid of $100?

(of course, looking through his parts list...perhaps those GT-R emblems are to fool the guy in the next lane...If he actually has those parts on there.)

Well damn! If he can go over 170 MPH with no fuel and with the revs under 1000 RPM it must be the fastest fuel saving car ever. Photographing the check engine light was really classy as well.

Actually I believe the Kia was out well before that Bentley came out.

you want to go fast?, it will (130mph plus, ).You want to corner?, it will out turn a Vette, you want to stop?, it will give you change

Where to start? How about 'you want to go fast?, it will (130mph plus, ) What will (130mph plus, ) I assume he means the cars top speed is over 130mph, if so, that's not really to fast, my moms old 1.8 Xantia could do that, remember that this is a Mustang GTR Street Racer folks. Secondly, he mentions that it will out corner a Corvette, big whoop, my dads Navara will do that with ease, and what the hell does 'you want to stop?, it will give you change' mean? It gives you change for pound/dollar notes? And don't get me started on how ugly that bodykit is

Indeed.

My dad's old 1.8 Mondeo said 140 on the speedo. And although it probably couldn't hit 140, his new V6 probably can.

Itll stop on a dime.

Id buy it for maybe 10--15 Gs? If he first took off the hood, spoiler and GTR badges.
 
Again: For a V6 (They go usually in the 1-3k range. 8-10 grand can get you a pretty good GT or a ratty SVT Cobra)?
 
Toronado
For a V6 Mustang?

Did you LOOK at the engine pictures? It's a V8...there are four spark plug wires per side. Looks like plenty of Bolt-ons, too. claims to have swapped heads and cams, done a lot of suspension work, too.

Geez, people need to read into these a little more before jumping to assumptions. The Body kit...the GT-R badges, Hideous. the rest...Seems legit.

If it is a V8 (and I'm not saying it isn't) Why does it have V6 rims?
 
I'm pretty sure its a V8 as well, because of the spark plug wiring. Rims can mean very little about what a car is. I have Sentra SE-R wheels on my MR2.... does that mean its a Nissan :P

Wheels are EASY to change around :P Wiring is a bit harder.

Once again, reading the description helped.

Drastic sounds about right. Seriously, fake wood panelling on a Soarer?

It may help actually looking at the wheels instead of reading the description. They're V6 Rims. These are V8s.
