Wasn't this guy recently on here showing off this car? (and rightly so of course!)

Puts mine to shame really! Well, in the performance mods anyway! I still love my blue lit TV dash interior and I prefer my bodykit!

Awesome car. Someone will be showing off in this soon! Whoever buys it, I hope joins this great forum. If the current owner is reading this, please tell the buyer about this site!

Because it's crap?

Thats a bit harsh! Its not my cup of tea on the inside admittedly, but its certainly different! I like to see something different. I think the exterior could be improved on but its just taste. It needs chrome. I'm sure my CC gets harsh comments too but its all down to taste (although I got a free car wash at a garage yesterday as the owner like my car, so it does have some advantages!)

Each to their own, but I think it's disgusting

Well, its different. I hate the interior as I said and I think the dials are over kill, but i like things that stand out, even if i hate them. Does that makes sense?! I think the engine mods are terrific and something I would like to do to mine one day, but i go for looks over muscle and thats what i tried to achieve with mine. I think this one went for muscle over looks.

I would love to know why he is selling it. It was only recently that he posted on here saying it was finished so why spend all that money then sell it?

I wholeheartedly agree!

Looks like the general consensus is that its disgusting as it didn't sell! I'm in contact with the owner and he has now put it in Auto Trader for 10k and if it doesn't sell, he will keep it. Must be a nightmate to spend 15k on mods and lose the investment. I told him I didn't like the look of the car, but I thought the performance mods were good. I think if whoever designed the visual mods made an effort to actually make them nice looking, he would have sold it. Looks over muscle every time for me.

the exterior would be fine if not for the splitter which ruins it in my opinion...after all it's basically the GT front/rear bumpers and ecosse spoiler! the interior is a bit...well personal taste hehe

engine mods are very impressive

to be fair it'd be a good investment for someone who wanted a modded cc, personally I'd buy it, change the interior and lose the splitter and I think it'd be a nice car

I agree. Whoever buys it will have a nice project on their hands with absolutely nothing to do with the engine or mechanics. I'd say a hell of a lot needs to be done on the exterior and interior, and also new wheels. The ones on there are not only too small, but look awful. This could be the most stunning CC on the road if the next owner has style!

Personally, i'd say put this guys peformance and mechanical mods in my car and you've got the ulitmate in CC's! Biased maybe, but possibly true...

The engine mods are completely pointless. I'd bet it doesn't have any more power than a standard car - it's on standard induction for a start!

Why does it need transmission coolers? Either the owner is short of something to do or a tuning company have been taking the p*** with the owners chequebook!

Maybe I'm just being a girl - but what's with all the dials? It's like a mad professors hideout!!!

Frosty · Post by **Frosty** » Mon Jul 24, 2006 12:35 am

Maybe it would generate more buyer interest if they publicised that the interior mods were designed by Setvie Wonder. Who wouldn't believe it!

I saw it back on eBay and I know he has lowered the reserve to 10k but its still not met the reserve yet. One thing I did notice, why are all the dials where the stereo should be all put in lop sided? I mean, personally, i wouldn't have moved the stereo anyway, but whats the deal with putting them at a daft angle like that?
