That's right, they had the guys from Pimp My Ride work on it, no wonder it has that horrendous spoiler though okay that's more to blame for whomever really ordered it... But Ford gave them six? Well we know three of them and one is probably more for in car camera shots along with one being a uhhh "chase" car (the one with the guy driving that's on the roof) and probably one of those is also another "Attack KITT" for stunts, maybe?

Why did they lower the suspension? Reenforcement is understandable but I doubt it'll mean the car doing any kind of jumps ala Turbo Boost... Hmm... They even got the parts from Ford's catalog.... Ugh.

I wondered why the looks on this car wasn't impressing me much, now I know. Heck, they should've taken the car somewhere else to be outfitted better. The hubcaps are one of the reasons why the K3000 are a big turnoff for me. And I really didn't noticed the spoiler. But, in my opinion there is really no need to lower the suspension on the car. It would've looked fine without that.

Yeah, those rims have to go too or at least changed on the Hero car.... Hopefully if this makes it to a series they'll be allowed to do a lot of work on the car. That is if Ford actually allows it and NBC cares enough to.

I still don't know how I feel about the whole "transformation" thing either, it gives me Viper flashbacks with how it's being done.
