Pleasing to the eye. this roadster has an elegant. understated presence when seen in person. Finished in a subtle Ferarri Grey. the taseful theme continues into the Leather Interior.

Modifications that contribute to the sleek lines aren't a secret. but they are extensive.

The wheels are Boyd F 22's with Firestone Tires. 17 x 7 in the front. and 20 x 10 in the rear.
