The car is called the Scorpion.

Hrrmmm, HHO injection? Sounds familiar.

Is this a unique chasis? Couldn't tell from the article but the peanut gallery had something about a Honda S2000. Truth?

If that's an S2000 the plastic surgeon did some great work on the sheet metal. Curves in all the right places. :twisted:

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

Sorry to jump in late on this. At school, we have a convertible Beetle that features both Nitrous and HHO. And it's this color...
