Thats what I could never figure out. I guess its a need for individuality--to be different than everyone else. I went to High School with a kid who put about 20 Grand into his Civic.
Yes and No. The parents bought him the car, but he worked all through High School to buy the parts and Mods. Guess when you dont have any other bills you can afford that.
You see, the difference is that those Stangs were fast to BEGIN with, and brother InFlames has shown us what happens when Ricer boys get enough money to move up on the food chain. They end up ****ing up even proud Stallions. And in all actuality, this one below ISN'T a Ricerstang. Ma man's got this bad boy set up for circuit racing. You don't find Hoosiers on a ricer, and the rollcage suggest that this machine has some MAJOR giddyup. Unlike the ricers, the ground effects on the car actually serve a purpose.
well...this thing is flat out mean lookin im a live and let live kinda guy. dont mind souped up imports though id never own one. a stock stang convertible with the slow engine is fine by me too... but i appreciate your consistency and selectivity Pagan
Thanx man...I'm more for go than show. Don't get me wrong, I want the car to look nice, but I like the fact that my car still looks basically stock. Spider to the fly, ya know? And I'm sorry, but that Batmobile on Steroids looking thing made me laugh! Any minute now I expect the Lord Humongous to open the door and step out! "Just walk away...."
well perhaps Charlie Sheen and "the Wraith" didn't have the same impact on you, as it did me actually , its the rims that got me. pretty cool.
Man, wish I had a pic but I went to the bank a while back and there was this older car (might have been a honda) and it was pimped out with a GIANT rear wing. Made out of plywood. I just shook my head.
Are you really saying the it's not cool to have a tail bigger than the car? Crap, there go my plans for this weekend....
I don't understand why people try to sup up those cars. It's pretty sad actually!! And what is up with those mufflers that sound like a pregnant bumblebee?
I just don't get it. If people want the world to laugh at them, why not just buy a clown suit? Gotta be much cheaper.
LOL! A guy that runs the detail shop I used to be a regular at put over 20K into his Civic as well. The thing was ridiculously fast, he thought he was the ****. Until he got caught street racing, had his car impounded, taken apart and sold at auction by the BC government.
