This car has been for sale at various locations for a few years. The recent 
owner used to call it a rare "C74" version or something like that. He was 
questioned by someone about the claims and got all bitter( I believe this 
was on the PI board). This is a poor install of modified GR4 flares and 
front spoiler with bulls%*t stories to go with it.
