FD on the cover of turbo mag.

There's an FD on the cover of this months turbo magazine. Does it belong to anyone here? I think I've seen pics of it on the forum before.

Probably due to the lag time involved with putting the mag together, that picture was taken a month or 2 ago, before AA got caught doing whatever he was doing with other people's credit cards. Has he responded at all since they story broke?

actually i think his 300 is a showy non turbo.

its weird that they featured it though..
most cars that get in turbo have proven performance
which i don't beleive his did.

He's been on since that thread in the lounge. I guess he's just choosing not to respond to it which is probably a good idea if he's dealing with any legal issues.
