I've heard of mods, but those yellow racing stripes look stupid!

I think that 'less is more' body kit looks pretty mean. Probably brings the weight down under 3000lbs

Seen it? Ducky, I lived that middle one (front impact) and met my driver's airbag for bonus. Fortunately, a 200lb doe isn't as hard on the car (or driver) as impacting the concrete slab so car and I are both good as new.

I second the good ratings from the dot. It's all well and good to believe the video, but when you've been the crash-test dummy you don't believe, you know.
