What's with those seats. Everything else is beautiful but those seats would get ditched as soon as I bought it, extra padding or not.

Who could honestly work on it if it breaks would be my concern.

Completely right on the seats - only mistake on the car that's visible. I just wonder what mistakes lie under that hood once you pay for it, like tjbourgoyne said. Drive back to texas for service when I find out the 3rd rotor is really decorative? haha...

I'd be more interested in buying the mechanic then haggling over the car's price.

I like his comment about this taking 153 hours of work. I could just about write off 153 hours for wax jobs over the past couple years, and would be seriously concerned about the quality of wok if that's all the time it took! No explanation why the DSC doesn't work. Needs the money to put into a strip club. Sounds like more trouble than its worth.

if you can pull 350rwhp Plus, why would you even botther doing such of time consuming project. for 250rwhp, for that i rather install greddy turbo kit.

Only reason I can see for getting a 3 rotor is if you are going for upwards of 400whp. For anything underneath that, I'd stick with the Renesis.

DSC doesnt work cause it is running a stand alone ecu. Stock computer that controls the DSC has been taken out.

IF I was able to do my own work, I MIGHT consider something like this. It looks well done though. I wonder if the jar of Vaseline is for the Engine or the Strip Club endeavor.
