How Not to Mod a Car: Del Sol A-Wing Edition

At first glance, this vehicle might look like something from "Fast and Furios Gone Wrong", but in reality it's just a modded Honda Civic Del Sol. One more picture after the jump.
Good thing the Del Sol is only a two-seater because there would be no way to haul around all of the babes in this ride

Not a fan boy of Star Wars, but I saw a thorough web page of the mods this guy did to his Civic. As a whole, its very good. He's got a variety of mods in the interior, all worked pretty well, including the lightsaber gear shifter (or was it the power brake). Anyone have that URL?

[...] This would be the coolest car ever.   By a little more effort, I mean if he trimmed the front down a bit, and maybe added little pseudo wings on the side. I can’t imagine much cooler for a Star Wars Nerd, since an X-wing/any of the TIEs would be ridiculous with the wings, and B-wings are gay. This is tight beyond reason…maybe little blasters on the sides? or fake exhaust in the back….like between the license plate and lights…oh man. Why am I posting this? I don’t know, it’s awesome, and I’m tired, and wanted to share this with the wonderful world. After all, it does defy all known boundaries of ownage. Meh, whatever, I want a Star Wars style vehicle.

It looks like "Back to the Future" Japanese version.

Reading the site that Chad gave, he totaled the car going at 30mph. So the car doesn't look like the pics anymore.

[...] Besides that, things have died down after the holidays.  I’m still playing Zelda, though nearing the end.  I’m still playing hockey.  We are still going to have a kid.  People are still using there time constructively by modifying their cars to look like A-Wings.  I’m still trying to over come my incredible desire to procrastinate at work.  We are still planning on going to London in 3+ weeks.  People are once again looking for alternative energy sources.  I wonder how much putting a geothermal heat pump into our condo would cost?  Hmm…                 [...]

This car is NOT awesome. It is a piece of crap. I'm glad the guy totalled it, it probably looks better now. Fark this car.

Sadly, there's another one that's almost identical in Plano, Texas.

I would drive it. Around here (Michigan) there is this one car that is completely covered in computer chips. Even the side of the tires have them.

Oh, this is hilarious. I actually saw this car several years ago on the road near the Fry's Electronics in Manhattan Beach and tripped out. Didn't think I'd actually ever find it on the 'net.
