Replying to: boomchek (Nov 03, 2008 1:31 pm) Here's a good example of grille star badness, from CL...this one is noteworthy as it has the grille star and still has the hood star.

Yeah, well, me neither until I googled it. Anyway, last weekend out in Missouri wine country (no jokes please), I'd just come around a corner and saw what my instant impression said was a F50, except, well, shrunk. After I came to my senses I realized I didn't know what the hell it was but luckily turned into the same parking lot as this guy and was able to get a good look at it. It's pretty much styled like your 8th-grade-boy-fantasy-car-to-get-the-chick-with-big-boobs drawings I made in math class. However, after looking it up and seeing that it does 0-60 in 3.2 and costs under $80 large, I'm intrigued. You do however have to put it together yourself...

| A nice gunmetal grey late series SWB W126 just drove by my window...still looking pretty good for a nearly 30 year old design. | |
