    Based on frequency of sightings, I'd say that there are about half a dozen in my area. I made a run to the grocery store a few minutes ago for my wife, and I saw one on my way that was painted matte black.

    We also see McLaren's, Lamborghini's, Ferrari's, Maserati's, and Porsche's occasionally. There are several Dallas Cowboys and other professional athletes who live in the area.

    Looks like some frat's science project.


    Riots are like sports, it's better to watch it on TV at home.

    There are a few near me. The guy in my neighborhood has his painted or wrapped black. If looks better black. Not good, just not as bad.

    I laugh my ass off every time I see one. That said, they are kind of intriguing….

    The more I see them on the road, the more I’m souring to them. With that said, imagine this, cyber truck wrapped in matte black or a dark green, replace all lights inside and out with IR equivalents. I know the electric motors are capable of running more quietly, so revert them to that, and toss a crew served in the bed. Now granted, I’ll still take a hilux over it any day of the week, but it could make for a pretty stealthy urban assault vehicle, couple it with some similarly modified model Ys with their gull wing doors.

    There is one in my area, but I have only seen it once or twice.

    Just saw one today in Denver. It was wrapped in like a paisley print pattern. Really weird. Even my daughter thought it was very ugly.

    Unwrapped they just remind me of a kitchen refrigerator on wheels. Just because you’re different doesn’t mean you’re better.

    It's that simple.

    Holy shit. That's it! It looks exactly like commercial kitchen equipment on wheels. You hit the nail on the head there!

    Now that he mentions it. Given what they probably cost, I can probably think of a dozen cars I'd rather have. When I lived in South Florida I saw everything. The most exotics of the exotic, you say "hey look at that" and then it becomes commonplace again. Seeing a 1967 convertible corvette was far more uncommon than lambos and ferrari's.
