Topless Spyder
This Mitsubishi leaves its opponent with a lethal bite.By Marco Patiño
Photography: Marco PatiñoAndrew Abraham has created a monster in this '98 Mitsubishi Spyder and the pictures tell the story all too well. Looking at this car is a source of wonder, amazement and frustration, especially when you consider that it was done in 18 months. The really sick part of it all is that Andrew's not done, so just when you thought that you were running up on his heels he takes another giant step forward. Add in the fact that Andrew is a pre-med student at UC-Irvine and it's hard not to take a drink from your Super Gulp of Hatorade.
The Spyder already had nice lines but with the additional bodywork and conversions the ride takes on a long and slinky look reminiscent of a fine Italian automobile. The Neeper wheels pull it all together like a hot pair of kicks with your favorite outfit. The interior is certainly something out of a techno pop video with enough TVs to make any household jealous, and with the combination of suede seating you know that you're rollin' first class.
Andrew says that working on the car is his "destresser" from all of the work and studying that trying to become doctor involves and that he has fun attending shows. This is Andrew's first custom and you know that he went big dog for the first time out of the gate, having MIC of Anaheim, California, handle the suspension. Reptilian is the only way to describe the way that it lays and it's certainly a head turner and show stopper at the shows.
If you think that this car is all show and no go you're in for a rude awakening in a stop light brawl. This massaged motor is pumping out a cool 400hp, enough power to bring most confrontations to a quick and definitive end with this Spyder leaving its opponent with a lethal bite. So check out the pics and you can see that it's all there... good looks, muscle and all the "bling" that you could want in a ride.
