Looks like a late 60's era Ford falcon on that site?
500 HP got my attention. Be a lotta of fun at the drag strip.

hp stands for hit points right?  maybe add spinning rims to add +5 speed.

today i was at the garden state plaza and while we were waiting for the people who stopped in the middle of the intersection to move forward i heard rap music.  dont want to start a music debate but when music is played loud enough for someone to hear through who is pretty far enough away listening to their own music its ridiculous.

well anyway the three of us in the car started talking about speakers and how they might have them inside the trunk jokeingly (seems stupid since the trunk would muffle the sound) and i said they should have them on their wheels.  its kinda like my idea for spinning rims that go counterclockwise so the car appears to not be moving (wheels anyway).

on the subject of military why not the air force?  then you could trick out a 50 million dollar plane.  you could add neon lights for the nighttime raids.

Putting speakers in the trunk is fairly common practice in high end car audio.  It will not muffle the sound if done right, although most times you see a cheap speaker box thrown in the back of a Civic by some idiot 17yr old.  It's a very common practice however.

Also, they have wheels that appear not to move while the car is in motion.  They are weighted spinners and allow the "spinning" section to remain still while the car is in motion.  It's basically a reverse spinner that allows the bearings to spin the wheel and tire while the center area remains motionless.   They are stupid, extremely heavy, and insanely expensive.

They don't have a "counterclockwise" motion though.  The amount of effort and electronics that would be needed to correctly spin a spinner in the equal and opposite direction of the tire would be silly.  At least when you consider how it can be done otherwise.

I'd never bother with subs. Good speakers in the rear deck give great bass by themselves
