First, it isn't real, it's a parody of aftermarket tuning for real cars... and if you hop around to some sites regarding that topic, I think you'll find that $6499.00 is a reasonable price for a complete twin-turbo kit :) J (25 years ago, 27-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build, lugnet.technic)

Hi, I just finished off my first Ninja-themed building. It actually ended up being the largest building in my city (at 13 stories). Here is a picture: (URL) is a link to my main web page: (URL) me know what you think! Brad (25 years ago, 27-Apr-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build, lugnet.town)

Is that price right? $6499? Or should that be, maybe, $64.99...? Just wondering, not criticizing, yah? I don't have a super-car, so I don't count anyhow ;-) -Shiri (25 years ago, 27-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build, lugnet.technic)
