Adam, I reckon your car would look great with Guy's black bonnet and black eyelids.
Anyone good with photoshop who could doctor one up ???

Can't agree on the history comment. Love their look and engineering with forged alloy suspension, recessed engine etc.

Question for Adam, what's the NC-V8 mean? You got my interest...

"I think history will judge the NC's quite harshly and deservingly so. Big, heavy, boulevard cruisers for middle aged people are what first comes to mind"

Numbers dont lie Sunbaker when you look at what they are doing around the track in stock form :D

And how many aftermarket options were available for the NA while it was still in production? Not many I'd say. As the ND takes over and the cardigans upgrade, the NC will become an afordable and modifyable option for many and the aftermarket will grow substantially.

What a load of condescending Bullshit, there are plenty of options available for NC's, from superchargers right through to exhaust tips and a lot of stuff in between including the interior,suspension and brakes.

No idea what he's talking about. From literally the first image that came up when I searched of 'NC modification options' I found three different styles of cardigans in the one image!

Keep it up Adam :)
