Anyone know whose car this is?

I'm wondering if they're one of us from the forum.

I love that they have a tow hitch attached.

Maybe they have a BZP aerodynamic trailer to go along with it!

nice, could use sharper transitions on the rear roundy corner bits for cleaner separation, but otherwise nice. Are the mirrors miniaturized?

It could be a lurker by the username funkhoss. He is from Virginia and owns a Metro. There are no pics though
