I cant imagine the amount of time/money he has in that mess

LOL, but could be worse. IMO a Z4 is BMW's "Aztec" anyway.

 

This!

Very "Mad Max."

Interesting... crew cab?

 

Cheap photo chop

 

The rx8 is real. Posted from a while back.

 

 

I gurss he can only afford to get 1 wheel at a time.

 

sonic what was mike thinking lol

 

there is alot more that is wrong with that car then just the one wheel


he must be jealous of his neighbor

 

It's VIP yo!

 

 

 

Probably scraped the fender up pushing it back into the garage for the umpteenth time.
That should buff right out.

 

Not a purist. Other than needing a belly pan, what I can see looks fine to me. Fender is another issue, but is repairable, unlike other cars in this thread.

 

Also, the insulation under the hood rubbing will either burn or eventually wear away, either damaging the hood and/or paint, don't have to be a purist to see that.

 

lol, really? Under hood insulation IYO puts this car in the same class of these other automotive failures?
And most under-hood insulation is pretty inflammable. I think most are actually designed to fall in the event of an engine fire and (hopefully) smother it. Regardless, that would hardly qualify that car for this thread IMO. My personal experience with the rotary goes back to 1981, and I still have and enjoy them. But well done LSX swaps are fine with me.

 

Well done swaps are fine with me. This car is not that. Sure it has potential, but in the meantime it looks like that and doesn't run.

 

Well, if it's a swap that's just started, & it's already done that, what do you think a few thousand miles will do with constant rubbing?
The thought is probably that it's the Billy Joe Jim Bob's problem that's dumb enough to buy it.

 

Sounds like you have some additional information. Your post just had a picture of the car... nothing about it not running. I agree the car looks like it needs some TLC, but if you and BigCajun want to hang your hat on the fender being scuffed on a 6 or 8 yr old car, you'll have to include the pictures of a lot of other member's cars on this forum.

No. Fragile under-hood insulation that's been knackered up doesn't qualify for this thread. And again, if that and a scuffed fender are qualifiers, ALOT more of your fellow members are probably on their way to making this thread. If you don't like swaps, that's one thing, but that's reaching thin. And it has no practical or moral equivalent to a RX8 with a grafted pickup bed, or huge tasteless ill-fitting body kit panels of varying colors.

I have no idea who the owner is. But my sense is that both of you have some additional knowledge of this car, maybe from another thread that MIGHT qualify it? If so, lets see it so I can get on that bandwagon. But 9k's picture alone doesn't do it for me.

 

It's titled "What not to do to your car!",
Not "What ridiculously stupid tacky thing not to do..."
I wouldn't do it, so it qualifies by my parameters.
