I was greatly dissapointed in the autorox show! The show didn't even seem to take itself seriously. It basically had a bunch of hot exotic cars and even hotter women prancing around to divert your attention from the BS they were spraying! The catagory topics were pretty lame. The results the majority of time were even lamer!

What was with the stupid dance the girls would do next to the winning car? Did anyone else think that it was overkill to have them do that (besides the obvious eye candy)?

Considering how much advertisement Spike TV pushed for this "first car awards show" it in my opinion that it did not stack up to the hype. I would also like to say that considering some of the result of the voting (by people voting online) would indicate that the majority of the people who watch don't know what they are talking about (or even worse truly think an RSX tops an Evo or STI).

To make things worse...I am sure Spike TV will be showing reruns daily!

Heh... I love ignorant people. He owns mutiple american muscle cars of the 60s and 70s including a 600+whp 69 chevelle.


From an intervew with flex:

" love new cars and old cars. I have 'bout 20 in my collection, most of them from the '60s — a '66 Impala SS, '69 Chevelle SS, '67 Chevelle, '55 Chevy, '69 Charger RT, '69 GTO Judge, and of course I have a '72 Cutlass. (Laughs.) "

Sorry but any of his cars > any car anyone on here owns.

Why do you guys car so much everything was based on voting? When the EVO won some other magazine voting competition you guys couldn't stop praising the mag lol. Hypocrits for the win.

Notice what car got the biggest cheer when they introduced though? STi.

Actually I think we would still be saying the show sucked even if the Evo had won.

Instead the thread would have read like the following:
"That show really sucked!!!! -- The only thing they got right was the Evo!"

Yea SRT-4 won best bang for buck which I probably agree with. What I thought was crazy was the stupid *** "Mid life crisis award". They gave a Lambo the mid-life crisis award! Whats up with that bull? When I think of a mid-life crisis car i think of a corvette, porsche 911, BMW, Benz etc, not a freaking Lambo! Just my .02

Nothing says "I am in my 50s and insecure about my age" quite like the Corvette!
It is the epitome of the mid life crisis!

How many guys in their midlife crisis can afford a Lamborghini?

The Lamborghini is only a midlife crisis car if you are a Saudi sheik and you want to impress your fellow members of OPEC.

Funk master flex knows jack **** about nothing. I can have a long list of cars and pretend i know my **** too. Just because he owns a lot of own muscle cars, doesn't mean he knows cars period. I know people with corvettes and all they know about that car is that it has a great sound system. I own muscle cars. Everyone praise me and think i'm a car guy yo! The same people who think FMF is the **** are probably the same people that think the "sarge" and that ditzy girl and that "griff" guy on espn knows their **** too. SONY EXPLOD YO!

Your STI forum is doing the same thing (crying because the STI did NOT win).
