This has SHOW INTERIOR, UNDERCARRIAGE, ENGINE COMPARTMENT. Handcrafted, exotic leathers and suede interior, custom finishes on plastics - absolutely gorgeous.
It's a joke, right? Who would do such a thing

Visiting the link and viewing the photo of his engine bay will give you all more latitude os judgement regarding the interior. His engine bay is so meticulously clean and perfect that it becomes obvious that his interior was done very meticulously as weel; Perhaps just not in a style many would choose.
It looks like he's covered the entire dash in suede or psuedo-suede.

Looks like alot of TLC went into it.
But let's all just bash it and laugh at it.

had he of picked one or two colors for the interior. it might look okay. but since he didnt. its my civic duty to point and laugh.

[nelson voice] HA-HA! [/nelson voice]

p.s. and wtf is up with the guitar picks on the steering wheel? looks like arts and crafts time.

It may very well be a miticulous and thoughtful job, but, it still does not change the fact that the sterring wheel looks like he black taped it...

To me that ruins the integraty of the hole comentarry and the pictures.

If the interior wasn't so godawful ugly then it would probably be a nice car. With the clean engine bay and everything. Its just the whole interior looks like he took it to preschool arts and crafts time.

The blue is cool looking and nicely done, the Marblized pruple is cool looking and nicely done. The white under dash is also cool looking and nicely done. But when you throw them all together it looks like a clown exploded......a clown that was carrying electrical tape i guess.

Give the man some credit: at least he style matched his electrical tape steering wheel to his electrical tape e-brake.

there is that Japanese techno mod color theme..that is in the animations that are popular these days..its very slick high techy, with purple/red/silver/black/purple, green/yellow.....I think that is what he was going after...it is really slick and done well.....just the colors are a definate sytle statement...but the wheel wraps, I dont think fit well....

the clown thing was funny

This person must of been bored and just wanted something different then the normal torn, fadded, crappy looking interior that is usual for this onld. For the tennis grip tape, mabye he was sick of the nasty torn up rubber crap they make the wheel out of to begin with. Also mind that this prolly looks alot better then 80% of you guys that are making fun of it, I know for damn sure its better then my interior because mine is absolute **** and cant be compared to anything but sun beat ****. Think about it next time a little, and how much money this person might have. The whole car might not be worth $500 for all we know.
