    I love this - "The dash is cracked (easily fixed by a $35 dash cover)." For that kind of fix, you could advertise a $0.01 strip of masking tape that would "fix" the crack as well as throwing a cover on it.

    Hmmm, gotta wonder about the mechanicals and engineering when the creator considers a fix throwing a cover on to hide something...... and even then doesn't bother to do it, but just talks about it

    Obviously a car this sophisticated and exclusive is not for everyone. I wonder why the car has had seven documented owners? Seems like if the car was so great, maybe somebody would want to keep it?

    Hate on this dude all you want. He's done a great service to humanity. He's inspired me to stop posting on message boards and get back to work...so I can make huge piles of money and become an eccentric millionaire...the kind who buys a car for the sole purpose of lighting it on fire and rolling it off a cliff...later sending the video to the seller.

    It is tough to sell a Camaro that has dented fenders, a cracked front fascia, and busted tail lights. But cover it in hand-formed sheet metal and suddenly you have an "exotic" car. I think it is brilliant! Personally, I would have covered the seats and the dash in aluminum foil to complete the look.

    Not aluminum foil but rather exotic crinkled metalic finish.
