The pic with the engine on show was the took at Japshow last year car was 95% completed very late the night before Spot turned up and got in the awards without the car being 100% finished.
Just to put it in perspective the car looks a lot better in the flesh as the colour is actually quite a deep kandy red |

Nice car! I like the color. What is that little square piece by the key, under the windshield wiper stalk? And is there one specific v6 that everyone is swapping into their cars or just picking and choosing? Anyway... I love the interior of your car. Keep up the good work!
