It was and the car is going back to the body shop. ED basically forced them to take her all apart again and fix her at no cost and provide me a rental. My car should be back and looking great!!!

In that shot I was going 155MPH also

I don't understand the thought process to come up with that paint scheme!

Reeder. Its' been there forever; how long does it take to pick up a new car? Maybe the buyer sobered up and changed his mind.

I know I am the minority, but almost any Vette with red interior is awful. Granted, the C5 oxblood red isn't nearly as bad at the C4 red was.

You ever hear the old saying, "Not just no, but HELL NO!"?

That would apply here. Toque won't put his BSM's back on, much less paint them that horrific color, and I'd pull mine off and set them on fire first.
