This one is not all THAT special. still some major ricage going on here.

Note the side skirts that looks like it was hot glued onto the car. I'm sure it was fiberglass but you should see how bad it is. it looks like my cat threw u pon it.

Why would anyone put side skirts on a car, but not a rear bmper? "lets make this part of the car look low, but lets keep this part of the car looking like a 4x4."

big *** tach... oh yeah, goin back to the 90's yo.

What is it with these type of cars and their owners that makes them put company advertising on them like that?

I think that TSX is a driving school car...and what a strong mind to put stickers and rice up a car targetted to high school aged, beginning drivers. Heck, I think I would have asked my mom to sign me up for that driving school...alot better than learning to drive in a Corolla or a Fit.

I hear those GT-R's made by Ford are a lot faster then the ones made by Nissan. I think they put a hemi in it.

I had to learn in a Geo Metro. It was only running on 3 cylinders.

I saw the Mustang on I 84 W just west of Newburgh, NY. Note the gaudy paint, and terrible ricer wing. Also, the front had a chrome hood scoop and a bright yellow emblem.

The poor MX6 was in the Old PX lot at West Point. It had awful headlight covers and it was missing some lights.
