Calling this car the evolution could not be truer; it dates from 2003 and looks better now than it did when it first came off the production line. The car is owned by Damian Cahill from Columbia, MD and this is a car that has a fair amount of work done to it.
The basic car would have a two litre, but this has had got the benefit of a CBRD custom hybrid turbo and a Turbo XS front mounted intercooler etc. with plenty of Greddy piping and the SMC alcohol injection kit this is a car ready to rock and roll.
We like the way that car although clearly the result of a build, still has most of its shape and lines from the original design, of course there are the essential fibre accents and fenders, this is finished off with a beautiful custom chameleon paintwork.
