At least until some doofus loads a bunch of concrete behind the tires, lifting the front wheels off the ground.

Assuming whatever jackass weldjob they did to the frame doesn't just break in half.

Or they take any turn next to another car and sideswipe it since the rear wheels are now so far forward of the back.

edit: also, I really don't want to bother walking outside for this, but right now outside my office is a Toyota Solara convertible with a hood scoop. Not one of those tape-on walmart fake hood scoops, like a whole replacement aftermarket hood with an air intake, which I assume is non-funtional. It also features aftermarket rims and a Mac sticker in the window.

I thought that too, but the lights look a little too big to be 90s GM. Pretty sure those are actually mid 00s Dodge lights.

The curve at the top is wrong, and the backup light lens is too tall for the late 80s-mid 90s GMC/Chevy I was thinking of.

That cut line at the bottom is way too accurate to be anything but the same bed.

Someone should report them to Rolls Royce, that grille shape is trademarked. Not sure of the exact details but I think it has to do with the angular top and vertical bars. Basically if it looks like a Rolls grille it's a violation.

according to the comments the camera is a Blackvue 600-series. Pretty unobtrusive - especially when you just wanna go for a quick blast.

The most amazing thing about that to me is that even in loving Russia, a high-speed freeway chase doesn't end with any guns pulled. In the USA there'd be four cop cars, a helicopter, assault rifles everywhere, the driver handcuffed and beaten up with a boot on his face.
