Why would you film a car with a collapsed rear suspension surely it would have looked better with that fixed.

Wheels in the arches - epic fail!

It's an Accord with a set of wheels that don't fit properly and hydraulic suspension. Nothing VIP or gangster about it in the slightest. If it was a BMW, Merc or Audi then he might have been onto something but I doubt it.

And remember folks - Bitches love switches!

Lol you guys never stop making me laugh. Remember that the VIP look isnt very big here yet (its not Euro look as thats just shit) He's done all the interior to make it feel like a Merc or Audi just like we try make our cars go as fast as Mercs and Audis. Whats VIP or 'Gangster' about a Accord? Whats special about Focuses or Escorts? Its all about what you like. I prefer fast Fords just like you guys but I respect what he's trying to do

It's not the fact that it is disliked because it isn't a Ford, it is disliked because it is shit.

If it was the equivalent Mondeo, then it would still be shit.

They think its 'cool' to have their car looking like that

Horse for courses and whatnot, but to me if you are going to modify a car it should make it better in some way - I.E. faster, stop better, handle better etc.

They do things that make no sense at all

Having daft camber int VIP cause I'm sure maybachs, phantoms don't look like that and making the interior nicer I can under stand that but it's basically euro'd car with fucked camber and a nicer interior. No camber would look tidy

Who said Focuses and Escorts are special? I'm sure most of the people who have said this Honda is shit would say the same about a Ford that has had the same "VIP" treatment... You asked for peoples opinions, thats what you got.
I've seen some pictures of these japanese "VIP" style cars, and they all seem to be based on a big barge like a Lexus LS400 or something among those lines, which have a bit of luxury to start with. Unlike a Honda Accord Luxury cars and other vehicles that are made for comfort have air suspension, so why use hydraulic?

I don't understand all the talk of "inspiration" and "changing certain aspects of the car"?!

Air ride, a set of wheels and holes for upside down champagne flutes?!

I'm sure it doesn't roll around on the streets with that camber setup the hydraulics are adjusted to a much more road going level when driven just sits like that when parked or at shows. Don't hate it or ridicule it like some other responses but then again not my cup of tea either.
