Hmm Vulgar? well I don't know, the rims definitely aren't to my taste and I really think that the bonnet could of being moulded or shaped to hide the engine protrusion. But seriously can you imagine this monster at WOT!
One thing and I realise that mics and cameras don't tell the full picture but the sound that baby makes is awesome, I wish I could get mine to sound like that!
I don't go much on heart transplants in these cars, I think that your taking away a thoroughbred to replace with a donkey in a lot of cases, but at least its another British V12 in this one!

That is not a V12, it is a Chevy 502 with Merlin heads.

My " I like how he kept the V-12 emblem on it" was being sarcastic. Definitely a GM based V8

+1 on the vulgar. Ugly wheels, trashed unfinished hood, boy racers gauges, and a lump. EDIT; oh yeah, loud. All it's missing is some flames.
