Came across this car in an article on the Paris Tuning & Racing Show 2008 and then found the car on the web. Click here for the full photo gallery.
Unfortunately no list of mods... no doubt the modding experts out there will spot whats what!
There are parts of the car I love, parts I don't. I like the cleaned up trunk, but imagining it without the number plate - even though it looks as though something is missing! Also love the slammed air ride look
I personally think they lost it on the choice of seat and insert materials, but the colours work well. All in all a very clean and slick ride. What do you think?
Here are some random pics - enjoy...

After snkpkp's airco comment, I just noticed that they didn't even fit new pedals!
I agree, they really lost it in places.
Shame really, because some mods do look great IMHO. I like the recovered dash and black trim combo... but then they ruin it IMHO with those fugly seat and arm rest covers

Looks like an air ride system to me, which can be adjusted at each wheel by using four switches they built into the air rest compartment -- maybe someone else knows more about these systems...?? Are they only good for show cars or can they be used as daily drivers?
