personally like the car ,hope he gets on to these forums to get a few more ideas.
engine mods and new bodykit maybe.nice paint jod and must turn heads when its on the street.i know people use the expression all show and now go but um its a car show to show off your car not race ,thats what a race meet is for,besides engine mods these days are useless unless you are actually racing.i understand its nice to have plenty of power under the hood and id like to have it too but 0 to 60 in 5 secs vrs 0 to 60 in 9 aint gunna get you to work any faster or safer.
keep the peace in the forums
the world needs critics and fans(stole that from this thread)

I posted a pic of this car not too long ago in another thread. I think it looks great. It seems like a lot of people don't like the "show" aspect of the tuner scene. I see so many nicely done show cars get flamed hardcore on these and other forums as well. I know there are a lot of people that like show cars but I guess the flamers are the ones that do all the posting, because it seems like show cars get a lot more bad comments than good most of the time. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, which is why no matter what anyone says, there will always be cars with all show and no go, as well as cars with all go and no show, and there will always be someone there to hate on both. It's just a fact of life we all have to accept I guess. But I do know that if you show your car, a car like the one pictured in this thread will win every time over a car that has a fully built motor, but is mostly stock othewise. But at the same time, in a race the show car will lose every time. So the point is, build your car to your standards! Don't do what others are doing, or what you see in the movies. If you like speed, build for speed. If you like show, build for show. And if you're like me, do both! And most of all, ignore haters! All the best show and race cars got to be the best by seeing what others are doing and going in a different direction! Props to the owner of this car for doing what he wanted and ending up with a great setup.

Like the paint job, but have question... anyone have any idea of what headers he's running there. Is it a older RRM? It has that rainbow effect in that last photo.

well if it's a show car, it's pretty much all about the "blingage"

It's an alright looking car. I do give the owner credit for doing everything that he or she did with the car.
