Frankenstein MG...with Boxster headlights!
This is rather cringe-worthy. This car is a hodgepodge of parts from just about everywhere, to include a pair of Boxster headlights that look very awkward in this setup.

For $13,900, Get Ferrari Exclusivity In The MG Price Range!

It's like when Lotus was using grey Trans-Am steering wheels in all Esprits regardless of interior color, and the taillights from an '86 Corolla...in 1995. The only difference there is that car actually looked good.

I don't enjoy someone else feeling my pain, but at least I know I'm not alone.
