yeah i saw it too. its from west coast auto works in seattle. the lights are..custom, non professional custom. and the wing is big.. the car is LOW.. i test drove it, and it was kinda ehhh. but it has 13k in receipts from an engine transplant and work so its not slow, but its kinda half assed in parts.. like the intake manifold is like spraypainted chrome or something instead of being polished.. i dunno who bought it. i think some high schooler because a buddy of mine was tellling me he was at tri tech with it.

Is he doing your fuel system too. How much does he charge. cause the RX7store fuel system is only 800 bucks.
