I have no idea how long this has been out. My friend Brian sent me photos of the one he bought. I went to the M2 website and they also have a "chaser" version which I assume is rare. It has gold plated trim instead of chrome

We haven't had many Acadian's featured in the last few months so I'd be nice to have one or two lined up for the months ahead. If you own an Acadian (any body style) shoot me a private message. They don't have to be tr...

At 50 mph on the speedometer my GPS indicates about 52 mph. I figured the odometer would register low as well but yesterday I tracked a tr...

I saw this on Facebook this morning. An Acadian wth a Corvair roof and "Impala Inspired" quarter panel bulge. It appears the quarter panel is one from a Corvair as well.
