Default This could get Amusing. *S2K Content Inside*

When I went to the 5&A Dime First Annual Motor Union back in October I got to meet the owner of this car, Nick. He seemed like a really nice guy so I asked if he would want to go do a shoot. He said he was down for it so after some rough weather and planning as my trip to San Diego was coming to a close we finally made it out. The weather was still a little crappy but got a little better as the shoot went on. Hope you enjoy!











Info on the car and more pictures can be found here:

Do not like. Not my car though so my opinion really doesn't matter.

Something just doesn't look right, maybe its the widebody, or the gap between the front fender and door.

Maybe the doors being "sunken" in? Lots of work in the car, but just doesn't look good/right.

People are so critical... The car looks great, love the color combo. Are you considering a wing?

It really is a love/hate thing. You are either going to love it, or you are going to hate it. The fact of the matter is that the Amuse kit is actually made to be functionable and he does track the car. It is not a garage queen/hard parker. It does get driven which you have to give some respect for because the Amuse kit is not cheap.

Mega Ugly.

I'd rather drive a stock S2K with dents, scratches, and rust.

very nice car. I do enjoy the Amuse kit, but in my opinion it NEEDS a GT wing to complete the look. without it, it just looks like something's missing.

Seriously? You can have your opinion, but you seem to have gone overboard to agree with the majority that you don't like it.

Anyone with any sense would take this over what you describe.


I respect the work done to the car. If it is tracked, that gets even more props from me. The #1 rule in this game is to make sure that you, the owner, are happy with the car. Everyone else can hate all day for whatever reason they choose. Forums are full of empty and uninformed opinions that are based on nothing more than what is "in".
