although in my defense I was attempting to build a show car (now abandoned, I have NO plans on doing anything like this to my 8) and thats before the vented CF hood and shaved doors...
but I still liked it :p

i would have to say that is one of the ugliest stock cars ever made, they actually made it look better.

Ok, this is more of a what NOT to buy for a car. the Nissan Sentra, I work at a Nissan Dealership and had to drive the SER package. Garbage. And the no shift shock transmission SUCKS. I got motion sickness because I'm familiar with the shock, and it was garbage. 60mph sounded like 120. IT SUCKED

umm.lotttaaa civics..

Those rear wheels are on airbags right? they couldn't possibly drive around like that.

I guess it's a neat piece of mechanical engineering, but i don't think any of those bits belongs on a civic.

^^^ Everything is automated on that honda.
The rear doors spin, the hood and trunk are automated. . . .

Too much money spent on a Honda

If he made that thing with his own two hands, mad props to him and I have serious respect.

If he paid a shop to do it. Who the hell cares. You can pay a shop to do damn near anything to your car. It doesn't prove anything.

speeddemon32 02-08-2008 02:57 PM

to much money spent for something that is "just kinda cool"

its not show car worthy (the car as a whole).
the rear wheels look retarded.

to each his own though right?
I know I have been "picked on" for some of my mods. but I liked them and that all that mattered..... I guess

its an accord, not a civic. not that it makes it any better.

saw this goof ball on my way home yesterday, I had to sit next to it in the creep for 15 minutes. i was laughing the whole time.

speeddemon32 02-09-2008 09:37 AM

HAHA, I had not noticed that, I was blinded by the wing and the shine off the chromed taillights.

So I think I've witnessed the solution to the headroom problem that a few of us have. I got this inspiration while working in a Vancouver shipyard in November.

Pure genius!

The great thing is that it doesn't take away from the overall look of the car!

WOW!

I kinda like the wing. S2000s look good with it, and it adds to the appearance of the car.

And it looks like it might be functional.
