I actually posted a topic about "post the nicest looking rx8 you've ever seen". They had similar threads on ClubCivic and it was a cool place to look for the cleanest Civics.

I don't like the idea. Things like this causes jealousy and drama on the site. And it's immature.

because it just becomes a popularity contest not neccessarily for the car but for the personality behind the car,,,

Kinda touching on what TopGear said, most of the contests that have happened that you refuse to go and study to see why they failed, became **** slingling contest and more often than not were filled with people sayin ", "need a drop", "put clear corners on" "ehhh not my cup of tea" cliched statements,,,
Everyone has an opinion and in this circumstance those opinions are best left out of it,,,

Popularity contest are for prom queens,,,

Not to mention there is not enough good examples of 8s to keep this going. But who knows this could motivate people to add tasteful mods.

I'm with the majority on this one. Most of the time, the car of the month looks just like the previous car of the month, just a different color. Usually it's all the same cars that are in the "Aggressive Wheels" thread that every site has as well. I like the multiple random galleries better.

I agree i like the random pics of everybodies cars. Car of the week might be better so it has to not be the same cars but different colors or whatever. I just think car of the month will be a popularity contest and people will post look at my car its the best and people will get annoyed. Just a thought ha ha

I am not going to try and bash you for starting the thread, cause it doesn't hurt to brainstorm with other members. After debating the pros and cons, I think it would just end up creating problems. We already have enough drama on here:
