I like the color, but not the stripes.  I also think the decal thing looks tacky.

Guys I have to disagree I love that color.  I would love to see it on a challenger with that off color as a bumble bee stripe and tan int.

 :bananasmi i personally think that color is amazing, it is only the stripes that make it too different and give it a look that only some would like, in my opinion if the car was to have the color it is but with a factory hockey stick in nearly any color, it would take on a whole new look and would look real tuff.   The seats are iffy but really functional, all in all it is still an outstanding car. :2thumbs: :2cents:

I just cant walk out of there without buying something :clapping:  thats the blue cuda I was talking about, very cool.  The owner was a real cool guy and talked to me about e-bodys for around 20 minutes.

Foose is THE MAN. I just dont dig the browns to much, the car is a beautiful site regardless.  I was watching his show the other day.  They video'd him sleeping in his truck....and I thought he is truely a regular guy like us(but with more talent)

 :eek7:   If it didn't have a "Foose" plate on the back I would have thought it was a "Pimp My Ride" car.

Sorry, never been a Foose fan.

Nice car. I agree, the stripes are terrible looking and the wheels are hideous IMO.

Definitely a quality job, but too much "Bling" for me. Too much gold. Foose does some awesome work & not to take away from his talent, but this car to me is just butt ugly!!

Apparently the color was dreamed up by the owner, to match the face of some watch that he had.  Here's a quick story about it.  Since the color was close to terracota, they called the car the TerraCuda.  Sucks that they used a Ford 9".  I guess the stripes are Chip's design.
