    But he built an R56 cop car for a TV show that tanked after 2 episodes! Not to mention he offered absolutely NOTHING in the way of parts or tuning.

    It's amazing how someone who "acquired" so many ideas from so many accomplished so little.

    It works for both.

    New entry into the English language:

    An M7 Fireball--Many great ideas taken from others and combined in such a way that their sum total is much less than the individual parts.

    Example: Take a MINI that makes 179 WHP, ad a bunch of mods, so it now makes 158WHP.

    Then in your best "Larry the Cable Guy" voice, you say, "That right there is a M7 Fireball!!!"
