haha, this is the robot:

"Hehe, i'm supercharged, with a 5.7 litre Corvette Engine"

They should take that gay spoiler off and put a smaller one on and remove those graphics, then you have an amazing sleeper. Its gotta be about 1000 lbs less than a corvette, no one would ever know what you've got. Its a GA lol.

That spoiler isn't too bad if they've got the HP to back it up. It looks like the Cobra R style. At least it isn't just sheet metal or carbon fiber.

It would look alot better if it were just not as tall. It's bigger than the 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner lol.

Know why the Roadrunner had that tall wing? It was so you could see out the back window. That's probably the reason this one is so tall.

Really? I never knew that. weird, I would have thought for a performance machine they would have sacrificed looking out the back window. I know I would rather use my side mirrors than have that big thing on my trunk.

that wing on that GA is from RKsport...I think they sell it for the pontiac SunFire...I suppose you canget awaywith a wing likethat when youre packing V8 power.


and Herc, the wing on the Roadrunner Superbird wasnt raised so high for visibility, it was raised for trunklid clearance lol

I saw an interview from one of the designers and he mentioned they could have mounted it to the trunk lid but the visibility sucked so they pushed it way up.

I thought so, there is a yellow sunfire around my town here that has one, its about half the height though. still looks outrageously huge ha.

I like both of them minus the wing but I wouldn't mind the wing since its a v8.
