Yeah it isn't my thing either, however, it shows what you could possibly do with time and money. They need to change the seat color to a gold or something because the red does not match the car. But hey, I wouldn't mind driving that thing around.

keith is actually a really cool guy and i kinda like his car although the color isnt my cup of tea being a chick and all...gotta have my purple.
but def. a lot of work into this car and the RHD alone turns a lot of heads...if only i could afford the conversion....<sigh> oh well another year. it just sucks im going to have to compete against his monster at every HIN and Funk Flex show i go to.

those pics really don't do it any justice. you have to see this thing, then you'll really be blown away. especially now that he's got the Twin-charge system on it. then engine bay alone is spectacular

I like the trunk lid conversion. It makes access to the trunk a lot easier. they really didnt give us a big enough opening to load stuff when they built the car.

well i thought we would be complete by May 20th for the HIN show that was this past weekend but we ran into a few problems with transportation to the show and the trailer and truck as well as a seized engine on kennys daily driver so we needed all friday to finish and that didnt happen. BUT....i got another new surprise for the trunk so its all good.

if i was to go to that show it would have been without my audio/visual working and that probably would not have made me a happy camper. the cars looking real good. just some minor little things here and there . i promise not to miss any more shows.

I'm Sorry But I Feel This Is Way Over Done... Its One Thing To Build A Sema Show Car... But Its Another Thing To Know Your Limitations On Things... It Almost Reminds Me Of Bob Mullss(sp) Eviil Z... At First I Thought This Was Jame's Howards 02 Mercury Cougar That Has Been In The Body Shop For Some Time Now As Far As I Know... Infact Even Though The Cougar Has Been Discontinued I See Alot Of Similar Characteristics Between The Two Cars...

some good work put into that car but it really shows how overkill alot of show cars are. i don't even think you can categorize that as a car anymore, its just a big entertainment center in a car shell.

i would **** bricks if i ever saw anything like that touch more than a car show floor and trailer.

To tell you the truth. Losier has drivin every car he has ever built including last years ION. I saw him out at cruise night a couple times with it. I don't know if the Cobalt has ever been out though. I wouldn't be suprised to see it one weekend here in the falls.

I am not a fan of the wild show cars anymore. I am more a fan of speed and performance. That being said though, you can't take anything away from this car, it is an amazing piece of art.

I still remember Low Talon- Keiths first real project car..you gotta give the guy credit he's come a long way and seems to be at the top of the game for sure as far as wild build ups go. This car is GM's way of saying to all the people who go to these shows and don't know much ..hey look at me I'm a crazy car come see me..and what kind of car is it "cobalt" pick one up at your dealer today.

And Mulls Z..a work of art also in my opinion, I would love to have the resources available to try to build one of these top show cars.

its definately hard to come up with something no one else has seen. this car really pushes the limits in every aspect. there is nothing he hasnt thought up to do. trying to play catch up to a car this crazy is hard too because every idea i had for my car seems like it was already done.
the point is, you have to dare to be different when you decide to do a show car. why be ordinary.
with all the negativity im actually afraid what everyone will think when i am done with my car. just keep in mind, the amount of time and money and dedication put into a car no matter what you might think of it, good or bad should be commended.
he went where not many have gone before and if anything we should really be happy he brought that sort of attention to the cobalt.

^^^agreed^^^
the problem is most people look at it and for get that the car was made for a specific purpose.
of corse it's not practical, of corse it's "overdone" maybe for a street car, but not for a show and track car.
the beuty of something like this car It's not all show and no go.
When I talked with him he said the goal was to break 12 with all the equipment, then 11s
