When the SRT-4 neon came out it was rated the fastes car under 20k. I have seen a bone stock SRT run a 13.7 in the quarter mile.

A guy that works in my town has a Veyron. It is his sunny day driver. On the bad days he only drives a Maserati, f50, GTS Viper, or some AMG Mercedes.

Here are some pictures of the Veyron that I stole from another site. He actually passed me once while I was driving the Charger last Christmas Eve. And it's a Viper GTS-R white with a blue stripe not a GTS.

My Brother In Law calls me from time to time to help install stuff in exotics because they can be such a pain in the rear for one guy alone to mess with.

I learned one cool thing working on this car.

Carbon fiber panels conduct electricity!

Actually we just put a wire to it to complete a ground path for fun just for test purposes, sure enough the circuit was complete.

I got a chance to work on one of the Eleanor mustangs that was used in the movie gone in 60 sec's.
It took a year to fix all the movie damage and get it back to normal.

There are some pretty wealthy dudes here in Atlanta, but most of them are cool that can afford stuff like the Veyron.

People often ask if I get nervous working on cars like that Veyron that the owner payed 1.5 million for all said and done, but it's just another car to me, although I take my time, pay attention and try not to nick any paint.

We've worked on cars for Elton John, never met him, always sent his little boys down...yuk.
Ted Turner,a few rappers, tons of pro ball players, Morris Day, Bobby Brown, and some no name high rollers with some really wild car collections.
Alot of the high dollar cars we've done belong to black church pastors who are living pretty well while ripping off their congregations.
Atlanta is full of sheisters like this....go figure.
