Musta copied that idea from that calendar of those all chrome Mercedes cars. If I wanted a flashy paint job though, I'd want a chrome finish like that tho.

Very cool, but it sits way too high. I think the chrome-ness is cool, but the body kit itself (specifically the vents over the wheels....) are a little too ricey. If it was done on a stock, or a subtle body kit, it would be really awesome. Those rims look amazing too.

As I was reading the posts, it said that the car was sitting high because they did not want to scratch it when they load it up for transport. My french is a little rusty, but thats what I read.

Yeah, I'm not liking that front fascia. I think it cheapens the look of the car. More stock looking body-wise would have been better, but I'm just not a fan of non-OEM "body kits." That paint is definitely amazing, though. I can honestly say I've never seen anything like that before.

This guy will probably end up having as much money in this car as I will have in my medical school education. [8)]

skandalous, thanks for that link, it's nice to actually read what's going on, rather than reading the french..

i can't wait to see the finished one w/ engine and all.

This is a work in progress - there is NO engine at the time of those pictures. thats why it sits high.
i think the color is bad ass but would NOT be appropriate on any lesser of a car. I think it needs a proper wing and hood with some crazy tuned v10 bmw engine to finish it all off. Guy probably spent upwards of $28,000 on body mods and paint.

hahahah, that thing is so but ugly. what a disgrace to the roundel. someone tell that guy that the X5 shock/spring swap isn't working out too well.




mercede's did some chrome cars, they looked pretty neat, but i'd never own one.
