OH NO!! They paint it one really ugly sparkly color!
I cant wait to see how long it takes for him to blow up the 13b. Its to bad that they chopped up a really clean looking FC. At least it was a vert w/blue interior. UGH not a fan of either.

Oh my god it looks like a chicano ghetto ride!!! LOL. They get busted on the beach at night for being too loud! Gotta love the rotary with no mufflers. 300 hp w/ nitrous?! Still a rotary though! The nitrous is installed by 2 guys who have never used nitrous before. This should be good.

When you lose the race to 2 real dune buggies just pull out the good old 30 cal gatling gun and destroy it! That was a good car when they started the project. Its just scrap now. He said it was a bad car to start with. As much as I love the RX-7 I have to admit that that was the wrong car to use for a dunebuggy. May the 7 R.I.P.

A shame considering it was in such good condition. However, I will have to agree that at least it was a vert. Still a shame though

What a freakin' tragedy. I almost cried! It looked like a pretty clean car when they started. I used to like this show, it was funny when they ruined other cars. Nothin' funny about ruining one of the nicest cars ever made...
