Well, That's... Different. $40k?



Saw this on Ebay. Basically a stock FR-S (says Raven Black) but completely covered in chrome wrap. $40k seem a bit excessive? I have no idea, but if you want to attract attention, good and bad, this is a quick solution. Thoughts?

i have to admit...I like it. For 40k I was expecting see a FBM turbo under the hood as well. some dumb ass will buy it though.


EDIT: oh snap it has TRD wheels. now I understand why it's 40k
