so much so nice yet so much not even close to nice

damn, anyone have some chopsticks for that rice?
what a waste of money, with all the work done to that car its a shame they didnt choose to make it cool.
i hate the import look, especially on an american car
burn it to the ground

nasty..

he's been having trouble selling it if you can believe it That's the 2nd or 3rd time it's been up. Saw him at a couple shows in the past years and he can't go not get laughed at

The main problem is the body kit. The wheels would look nice if the spokes were painted gunmetal or black, and maybe go to a 19" front wheel. The hood, while creative, looks gay opening like that IMO. The lambo doors, once again, neat, but not my style. The TV's....i like the dash one, but the doors are a bit much. I like the mural on the side...if it were on the wall of my garage...I'm just not really feelin it on the side of the car...but it is great artwork. The center console needs to be painted back to black. The tails....no need to comment on those lol. Lose the steering wheel, shift knob, and floormats. I think if the above stuff was changed, it wouldn't look too bad (sorta long list though lol).

I do like his gauge setup...really clean.

Again, another case of people calling a car "rice" because a guy decided to be a bit different and go with more show than go

Personally, I don't like the front and rear bumpers, and the taillights could go

other than that, there's nothing on that car that other people (some very respected) on this board have done to their cars....

custom paint is just that, it's not a reason to call it rice....if the guy told everybody that his car could beat vipers all day long because of the front bumper allowing more airflow, THEN that guy, to me, would be considered a ricer

he's CUSTOMIZING people...it's not a crime. I'd love for somebody to tell me that OneBad's car is rice because he has an aftermarket body kit and lambo doors on his show winning 12 second AODE vert...

So it's not our cup of tea, that's fine....but that car is far from unsaveable. Putting a few bucks into it after purchase, to buy a more powerful engine and replace a FEW small things (taillights), could turn that vehicle into a perfect all around car for shows and racing.

Some people judge too quickly

I wrote that last rant before reading this....and you sound like you're on my level with it, so it wasn't directed towards you

It nice, but not my style. The things I DONT like: Hood flipped look rediculous, taillights. TV's (seriously, in the door?) and the front bumper. The rims are ok but would look better if, like someone else said, the front were 19's. And the horse on the side would look better if it were actually the running pony instead of a cartoonish one. And the shift knob dosent even go all the way on the threads. If you are going to spend THAT much money on a car, atlease get a shift knob that fits. And the steering wheel is hideous. I think it lights up like the halos on my headlights.

I wonder if the driver's side of the engine is stock since he could not get to anything on that side of the engine bay... Its one thing to try to make a car look different, but some people lack good tastes and practicality. I agree with most peeps on here about what could be changed to make it a reasonable car to have. I love the trunk setup and the gauge cluster. Also, that car probably weighs 4800lbs with all the useless TV screens in there
And whats with the super sparkly glittery paint used on the center console and dash? Its kinda gay...

The owner looks like the typical NY/NJ Guido with the blowout haircut and everything, so take that for what it's worth
