Sean Phillips 33, Aurora, auto detailer for Distinctive Auto Appearance in Montgomery.
How long have you owned it?
“I bought it in July, put 20,000 miles on it and tore it apart.”
Feature you’re most proud of:
“The main feature of the whole car is the middle waterfall that completely drops from the ceiling and pushes out 1,800 gallons of water per hour. And to go with that waterfall, there’s a home theater projector to project images [from] all my sponsors onto the waterfalls.”
Ever put it in shows?
“I will drive it once the weather breaks. … [We] just finished the car for the Consumer Electronic Show in Las Vegas, the No. 1 show in the world for car audio. It’s gonna be on display at all types of shows. I do a lot of traveling with it out of state.”
How much money have you put into it?
“Right now it’s sitting at about $275,000. The project that we have into it right now is 15 weeks with 2,200 hours.”
Do you own another vehicle?
“I have a motorcycle that I used to show that’s still in my possession, a 1994 Honda CDR 900. My daily is a Ford F-350.”
If you could trade up to another vehicle, what would it be?
“That’s a hard question. The price that I put into my vehicle, I could go out and buy a Ferrari, but that’s no fun. I like to be different.”
