I can't imagine any vehicle that those wheels would look good on.

Jeez, I feel bad for the salesman that has to sell that thing. Someone on here should stop in at the dealership and act like they're interested in the car and see what they have to say.

Wow... and to think the owner picked those out and said to himself/herself, "Damn, that's hot!"...

Where on earth did you see this car?

BTW, djomlas, you're car is still doing that weird color changing thing and I'm pretty sure any marsupial turds and LSD that I may have had has worn off by now...
