uncool. It's a bit like idiots here running with no springs and stupid stretched tyres.

They just look so wrong.

Lovely work and finished nicely as teh Americans often do with the modified stuff but gayer than a row of bright pink tents with gay men in them having sex with each other.

You gotta love some of the comments on here.
Obviously something with a ford badge and a turbo is so much "cooler" than a vehicle with thousands of dollars worth of body engine and suspension modification work carried out
Different horses for different courses i guess, but if you parked one of these up at a show next to a focus an escort and a sierra i think we all know which one would get the most attention and that is all these type of vehicles are built for.

agreed brad, they are built for attention, but do you not think that they are slightly over the top????????

So do you build or own your car to please a bunch of spastics at a car show ? Or in a magazine ?

Or do you build your car for yourself, and dont give a flying fuck what other people think ?

The latter does make more sense. If all you seek is attention, then really you arent into the whole thing anyway.

Im not saying those cars dont deserve respect for the amount of time and effort that goes into them. But really....a car scraping the ground like that is just shit, regardless of how shiny it is.
It probably would be better suited to a static show.

What a load of shite.

It's bad enough that the 'Euro' fuckwits think this sort of thing is cool running cars so low and with stupidly stretched tyres removing any sense of practicality but without any gains whatsoever - no it doesn't look good and it's most definitely not even vaguely 'cool'.
