Needs tint? A lot of tint...............

[csmiths]

car is for sale on ebay, that is where i saw it, gangster

[Z0_o6]

the wheels look to small.... or something. still a bad ass ride though

[Deke]

While I like the car and would drive the piss out of it, I've got to be honest. I think it would look better without the "widebody." I normally think widebody cars look really good. But those fender flares (particularly the front ones) just look really out of place on that car. They're so big it makes the wheels look tiny. Just my $.02

agreed.. its more like.. flared/murdered cts-v

[slowinmidga]

those rear rotors are huge!

[Black4DrEK]

I think it should have 19's in the rear!!

it would fill it out more!!!

the car is very sick tho...

[Elbow]

It looked hot until I saw the bubble flares...just looks stupid.

[Black4DrEK]

dAMN actually the flares do look like SHIT!!

[1SICKLEX]

Its like the wheel/tires are too thin.....Its a nice effort

[BKgen®]

UGH.... it would look sooooooooo much better with some more attention to wheel/tire choice and fitment....

[ATLSRT8]

I love CTS-Vs, but this one falls a little short. With a wide body kit I would expect a sick wheel/tire combo. And I can't call anything murdered out when the they are fish bowlin' with that tint.

[1MP0RTL0V3R]

i would agree with the others about the fender flairs but the car sounds sick as hell

[Drummerboy]

VoodooXII: YESSSSSS!

[NickD70s]

Needs tint? A lot of tint...............

[2turbo4u]

I was hoping it would've looked like the CTS-V from the LeMans series (speed world car challenge).

The wheels on this car is to small, with the size of the fender flares.

[Humphrizzle]

[Dville nismo]

[Glides]

Wheels are too small.

[Homer Simpson]

[bbuba]

[HypnoToad]

19s in front 20s in the back...
