2015 card[]
From the back of the 2015 card:
Born: 2015
Birthplace: El Segundo, CA USA
Designer: Hot Wheels®
Specialty: Here's a drift car with a wide body aero, roof rack, and an exposed intercooler for its twin turbo engine. The front bumper is missing from cutting the corners too close. Downshift, kick the clutch, and drift sideways!
