Caddilac 'vic
It looks like a car I created in Tokyo Extreme racer
I think it is nice, except I would replace the Cady badge with a Honda emblem

Rep Power: 351 no the funny part is, they say it has a turbo with a injen intake. 
Power is put to the massive front wheels via a force-fed Honda 1.7L engine. Using some custom fabrication work, a GReddy turbocharger was successfully integrated into the system along with a GReddy front-mount intercooler and blow-off valve. An Injen intake provides an increase in air supply while a set of AEM Tru Time adjustable cam gears dial the factory camshafts in. A GReddy turbo timer was installed to ensure that the engine is properly cooled down after those driving sessions.

Rep Power: 417 damn that was fast... here's a reply from the guy who wrote it...
wonder why he removed it.. unless if it was a cover up for lying about a turbo he never had
The turbo system was removed before the photo shoot.
I guess the editors didn't catch that my story didn't match the photos.
Good eye.

The sad thing about it is he probably spent as much money making it look like a real cadi when he could have bought a real one. Even with a turbo it still wont be as fast as a real one. But it looks like real good work though. Props to him for all the time and money he spent on that thing

Rep Power: 0 I was wondering where the hell the IC and turbo was. And I was reading, like why the hell do they say aem intake, and intercooler all that crap, but never even states turbo. Than I looked, no intercooler. How gay. I like the look of it, just a big waste of money though.
