Clearly, no one asked himself, "Just because I can, does it mean I should?"

How do you think he feels about being supported by an argument as intellectually riveting as, "I know you are, but what am I?"

^^ none of them are really.... If you have to take your eyes off the road to check them then they are propb not well palced. With that many gauges though there isnt much you can do.

Thats why I got a Zeitronix ..........

www.Gruppe-s.com sells a pod in 60 mm, but it isn't carbon fiber.

It's my car. It's also a shop demonstrator car, to show off products and installation options.

Swing by the shop, I'd be happy to show you how fully visible and functional the gauges are.

Oh, and it's also in the coming-out-now September issue of Modified Magazine.

As opposed to the spartan interior of an RS. What's the analogy there? A cross between the honeymoon suite at the insane asylum and a vanilla ice cream factory? To each his own, some of us don't think less is more and don't spend our time practicing the timeless art of hater-ade sales.

Just picked up my copy in the mail, unpeeled the plastic wrap, and read-reread the article on your shop Evo, very nice!

The article itself has a nice closeup shot of the CF gauge console, but any chance of you telling us where we could buy one? I tried your site but couldn't find anything either.

The RS' interior is the same as any other Evo, unless you think that a few shiny dash trim pieces actually make for an appreciable difference in perception. My comment wasn't driven by the sheer existence of interior add-ons, rather it was aimed at way they were configured and the quantity of gadgets, lights, and displays. It's the difference between clown make-up and a fine application of cosmetics.

(Edit: So there's no misunderstanding, I think the interior in the pic does make sense as a demonstration of the available options, not unlike a soundboard in a stereo store.)


To each his own, some of us don't think less is more and don't spend our time practicing the timeless art of hater-ade sales.
Even though I have no idea what "hater-ade" means in English, it's easy to see that you're unhappy with my comment. Please consider how exiting virtual discourse could become if pats on the back were the only things posted in response.

1. Haterade: a figurative drink representing a modality of thought. those who consume it are themselves consumed by the negativity which with they speak.

Thank you!

I love the examples of (errr...) word usage that follow:

"damn bro, quit doming yourself on haterade."

...and...

"Damn, B, quit hittin' on dat haterade and let a playa' play."

Please excuse me while I try to find some fashion accessories and a ride to match.

I am enthralled by your apparent disdain for views other than your own, yet choose to espouse yours as though they are beyond reproach and to be taken as gospel. Your capricious approach, wavering from an unacceptable execution as a daily form of transportation, yet somehow more credible as a tool of trade only validates my view that your vaunt is simply you being verbose (there, I'm done with the V's). Actually, I'm not. If you are going to challenge the veracity of someone's opining through the vengeful and venomous vernacular you choose to use, you should pause before claiming victory and realize that variety is what makes our cars great. They hold a unique value to each of us and our posting is done with the hope of validation from our peers, not vexing views. And I didn't even say haterade again. Snob.

p.s. V is for Vendetta comes out this week on video. I can't wait!
