This should finally put to rest the frquent threads asking if this thing is real.

For the windows, I would go with a long window similar to the style in the last image that stretches from front to back.

And then ditch the rear spoiler.

id also look into adding another door on the drivers side, the whole side looks too empty.

I saw this thing at Hot Import Nights in Ft. Lauderdale 2 years ago. I can't belive you guys did that to a FD3S but, the car is original and if you're going for fastest limo then that's kinda cool.

How come it wasnt included in 2F2F when they were filming in Maimi? It could have been Ludicris' ride.

I would make one long window with a. angled C-pillar matching the front and back. It really needs doors to qualify as a real limo if you are shooting for a record.

Maybe Godzilla can explain how it was made from 2 wrecked cars so people stop thinking how horrible this is over having them in the junkyard.

I have interior pictures, yes i need to resize them. Ok what they did is they took a fd that was hit from behind and cut it in half and took one hit in front and cut in half and cam spent alot of time and designed way to maintain the unibody frame. The door on the one side in my opinion is pretty cheesy looking. Cam told me to go get sponsors and for the big sponsor, wed like to go after coors or a big beer company.. somone with some cash to back the car and they will do anything to it the company wants. We dont really care what type of company it is that becomes main sponsor we just need one. We would like to put the 20b in the car, but as of right now we need a sponsor for airbag suspension, carbon driveshafts, interior stuff like seating, electronics ect. I will post up some pics in a few.

Well, the big silver driver's side does remind me of the silver Coors can! Or Barq's!

I'm actually impressed how the FD curves and bubble top were retained... that HAD to take some work.

my opinion is the rear windows would look good if they were the same shape. But using a stock door on the back is awesome. So if you could fanagle a oval shaped window into the stock door, it would take care of that sharp angle.
