I don't like it as it is. But take off the bling, change to 13" or 15" wheels, change the back axle and you could have a nice car.

In my opinion it is priced too high if you have to still do all that to make it nice.

I thought the M75 diffs were good? The engine seems nice and clean....

A bit OTT... But can be detuned. Sensible rims, I'd wrap the bonnet black, and put Can am rear spoiler. But not mad about dash. But a lot of car, performance and work for the selling price.

As a Chev man it pains me to say this, but R65 k to R75 k I'd rather buy that 69 Barracuda.......

Just being honest.....

I like the car. I dont like the wide stance at the back. I like the dash. I dont like the bling rims. I like the colour. I dont like the owner because that car in not in my garage ;) ;) ;) ;)

I think if you want do highway cruising a 3.7 ratio is a tad short.

Quite a bit of time, effort and money spent on this 4 door.In the big scheme, 65k isn't a lot of money for what you getting there.I think a can-am aerofoil would spoil it a bit for me.That 4 door has its own identity.I like it.

Overall it looks great. I just don't like the wheels. At all. :| The rest I can easily live with!
