It looks like a Honda Civic from "Da FaZt n DA FerrIuz" with a Camaro conversion kit... ugh... not my style, but whatever floats your boat.

That Pro-Rodz is a sad, sorry excuse for a Camaro in 1:24 scale. I actually find the Dubs "Big Time Muscle" to be much more tastefully done; I have quite a few of 'em. But the Pro-Rodz...Just can't do it. The 1:18 in black isn't bad, and they have some decent other cars (Impala maybe?) but the 1:24 Camaro...it's just sad.

To much bling-bling. Nice idea though on Maisto's part putting in a corvette motor. I agree with the others, the car is beautiful, but the rims are horrid. Maybe you should make it a real drag car. Fatties in the rear and skinnies in the front, now that would be cool.

And actual tires! Those rubber bands are a joke.
