    Personally, my eyes hurt but that's me. Obviously other folks like this. I hate to know how much $$$ went into it. It's a Hemmings ad with many photos. There are some issues with the car too which are shown in the photos. Interesting to share if you haven't seen it.

    This is a winning show car? There is no accounting for taste.

    The bottom of the listing sums it up:
    "Questions for Seller: 0"
    "Comments: 0"
    The most interesting item to me was the quarter panel rust. Gives the car that certain "patina".

    Do you think the bees were a little too busy under the hood?

    The owner is only asking $34,000 for this 2012 Challenger with 93,000 miles. So, you're not going to bid on it?

    I looked at a regular 2012 Yellow Jacket (like the pic of the original car in the ad) before I bought the car I have now, and that was too much for me. Guess I just don’t want to stand out that much.

    I agree. I had a project car I restified from 1999-04 that was a "Top Banana" 72 Challenger. Under those circumstances it was okay. Now I'm 61 years old and have a 2019 SXT in granite and I like that low profile as it is my daily driver. Not looking to attract attention.
