Sadly, that car is about five miles from me. I've seen it on the road once. It looks as retarded on the road as it does in the photos.

Well kids as "youngers" get a hold of theses buggies they will reflect the times.
IMO a pimped out buggy is better than a buggy rotting out somewhere. For what it is its a nice street buggy. Not my taste but it's nice.

The best part is the word "Manx" never appeared in the ad to help the sell. That in itself is refreshing.

Get ready more of theses on the way.

Sell the wheels, speakers and maybe some other stuff unseen, then choose the Gray or Blue to make it a single color ..it will lower the cost and probably make someone happy.

The guy that rides it looks just like him, too, right down to the jewelry.

aside from the wheels, front bumper and speaker placement, I have no problem with it. The paint looks good to me, someone obviously put a lot of TLC into it. (Time and Lots of Cash)

He picked wheels, tunes and bling over power. To each his own.

Yep. This vehicle is in a very depressed urban location. The bling is all about the "street cred" so engine choice is secondary.

He probably spent over $5K on wheels and tires and $5K on a stereo, no cash left for motor. That poor motor........

Different strokes for different folks.

The paint is not horrible. $13,000 ? Not a chance . But not the worst thing I have ever seen
