    C'mon, Srsly man? If you have a decent car then why the fuck would you do something like this to it? It ain't rocket science here.

      Honest to god it is a well done kit. Props for the craftsman with what money he has to do it. But a cougar? lol

      Up close anyone would know it is a knock off, but passing on the highway no would would have time to think otherwise IMO. Front flares are too tall, rearend and flanks are all off. Interior is an honest ugly mess. But it has the shape and I guess if people buy a knock off Rolex...then why not a Veyron?

        Paying any amount of money to do that to a Cougar is stupid.

          What a shame... everyone has been asking me about this at the dealership lately and it's making me cringe that someone would do this...

            at this point a PRIUS would be cooler...maybe even faster.

              Shoulda just done a 1994 Integra/Civic.

              Shit, does it really matter what he started with? He probably had a shitbox Cougar sitting around and got to looking on Yahoo News where the guys in Malaysia are doing the same shit and decided he would do one.

              Like me saying I think I'll make one of my parts e30s into a Rolls Royce just 'cause I have it laying around. I'm not going to buy a car with the intentions of doing this. I'm going to use what I have. Already gonna be spending way more than the car is worth doing this.

                  the only way it would be cooler if he'd used a Prius is because he'd have destroyed a Prius. :p

                    That is the most intelligent piece of information in this thread.
                    If I was capable of building this, I would exclusively sell these (probably a less durable version) to filming companies and profit in a huge way.

                      I don't get it.
                      I would love to hear from a person who is legitimately into replicas.
                      There seems to be a market for that sort of thing:

                          This guy isn't the only one doing it to cougars



                          Another cougar transformed into an r8








                          These kit car guys do put a lot of work into it though....check out this

                          It's been a long, arduous three years since V8 Archie kicked off his Pontiac Fiero-based Lamborghini Miura replica project, and hell if he's not all done with it. Risking cries of vehicular blasphemy, we say this thing looks damn good.

                            Irrespective of the fact that he does this on POS cars, the man has some talent.
