Definitely one of the more insane vids I've seen lately:

Magnus Walker was the deciding tie breaker and he picked Ricks car.
The car is 1 of 18 finalists that go to SEMA now. Winner is picked a Sema and then a production Hot Wheel is made of the winners car.

Best part of it is that 100 perecnt of the car was hand built by Rick in his garage.

At this point in my life the only Hot Wheels car I own is a couple of the Lancia Stratos releases (all-time favorite car) - but this might get parked next to it on the counter... I lived a lot in Germany growing up and there were plenty of cool Opels around and I miss them!

I've been waiting for someone to say something along those lines, as I didn't want to be the first to say it.

I love these ridiculous slammed vehicles where the average mall speed bump will stop it dead in its tracks. Coupled with that god-awful 70's inspired paint job, that thing can go right to the nearest car crusher.

I am not a fan of the "everything has to be lowered to be cool" design theory which seems so prevalent these days. I think that thing from SEMA is butt ugly.

Yeah. "slammed" and "murdered out" are design sellouts. Shows lack of imagination IMO.

Oh yeah, agree with that too.

The other I can't stand is the jacked up truck with wheel spacers which I see all over now. Can't park in normal spots, don't seem stable at highway speeds, and tends to attract a certain type individual as drivers/owners.

That's why I threw it up there - thought it was a brand new release...
