I just hope this guy doesn't run into difficulties with an insurance company that might claim ownership of the car if he was paid any sort of claim for the loss. It wouldn't be the first time.

You know, because this one doesn't cost six goddamn figures.

Rip out that bullshit powertrain and put a motorcycle engine inside, and now we're talking.

Although the example you gave is a pretty good one, i respectfully disagree.
