That is a Japanese car no one in the states.
It would not work as he probably messed with the fenders. Ok it kinda looks cool.

that's what I thought. the way he said it made it sound like they were affiliated.

In all seriousness though, I think Giovanna's main issue is a result of its marketing campaign, while many enthsuiasts would rather walk than ride on their wheels, they have the celebrity, and popular markets sewed up!! The problem is, when they finally make a really nice decent quality wheel, (like the GFG line), the intended market (enthusiasts) doesnt take them seriously, AND because they overpriced their bling bling stuff, the high end stuff is REALLY expensive (like 1200 per wheel average for 20's). Other companies are going to face this same dilema as they attempt to enter the multi-piece forged genre (Diablo, TIS, etc).
In the past I have had many a person ask me, "I saw some Giovannas on a Bentley, if someone put them on a Bentley they HAVE to be good right?" To which my answer is usually "If choose to wear Payless shoes with a Versace suit, does that mean I HAVE to be well dressed? I mean c'mon the suit is Versace right? lol
