If they weren't "Bling Bling Chrome" and a better style and that car had slight drop, they'd make it look more interesting.. as for the ported and polished heads... he means housings hopefully!

But they are! It just saddens me to see that on any kind of performance car...maybe it's just me.


Edit: I'd still want my pop-ups too. <33

They think its like some high performance number... since a lot of the newer cars are coming out around 300hp, they feel that 100hp more means that is a smoking sports care? just a guess
