GOSH.
The one who get to buy this car must be a DIE-HARD fan which know nothing about car at all. (I don't know much about car myself, but at least I know if a car is bad)
Seriously. The car itself is not impressive at all. Some say that exterior is straight ugly. (While myself see it has kinda cool and intimidating look).
The performance is total meh. It has only 233 hp. It really don't deserve a 100k price tag, and all they did is give the car an EVA-themed paint job!! (which looks ugly even for me who love the series)
If the price is right, one could buy a GTR, 911, or -later- the new Acura NSX. Then, he could later add the paint job with better art.

I think it'd be cooler if they got a Nissan GTR with this paint job.

The orochi itself is kind of a crappy car, its one of those made to look sporty but with horrible performance or specs.

Then again car collector's pay millions for cars, so 130 grand isn't much.

I find the artwork is more attractive than the car itself.

Yeah a Nissan GTR would definitely be better suited, not only as a car, but its shape has a kind of angular mecha design already.
