Questionable modifications: pictures inside!

[the Interceptor]

And why the hell does it say "Pontiac Fiero with Lamborghini body kit"?

 

[skip0110]

Oh yeah thats the stuff.

 

[Metar]

This is a ONE OF A KIND MUST SEE CAR and gets THE ATTENTION just as if it was the real thing.

The poor guy, he mistook the laughter and puzzled looks for the attention a real supercar gets...

and the chance of a lifetime to own what looks like a REAL Lamborgini for a fraction of the price.

Fraction of the price, yeah - but nothing "Like a REAL Lamborgini". Note the 'h' is lacking.

Its just about impossible to tell that it is a stock Fiero with the complete Fiero exterior body removed and a fiberglass replica of a Lamborghini Kit Car installed. All mechanical and engine is still the 86 Pontiac Fiero GT 3.0L V-6.

Yeah, it's impossible to tell it's a Fiero - but fact is, it's still a bone-stock V6 Automatic Fiero inside. And it looks HIDEOUS. And the bold text is to explain why he thinks it's a Lambo-kit:

Apparently, scissor-doors make every car a Lamborghini.

 

[McLaren]

Even Koenigseggs?! LOZOR!

Hideous, I don't even want to see what the rear looks like.

Nope, the Koenigsegg CCX (and I think the CCR, too) have "dihedral synchro-helix" (known as "Raptor" doors for ricers), which open out, and turn around. Similar, but not the same...


And a picture: Turns out this kind of crap actually drives at the 'Ring! It was shot at the 'Ring car-park, and it has a Ringers-sticker...

Notice the LOLZOR.

BTW, they don't turn around. They pop out, and turn upwards in a 90 degree angle. I have never heard them called Raptor doors. The full name is Dihedral Synchro-Helix Door Actuation.

 

[Carlos]

Arghgh that Renault is licensed Dutch, that car makes my country looks silly >_>

-_-' that bodykit is now seen on over a milion ricer cars..

damn ugly! gone way too far, but the idea was good:

 

[Encyclopedia]

Nothing wrong with the engine at least.

 

[GT40 MKII]

the engine is ok the car isn't i never wanna see a mazda RX-7 abused like that again
wtf, correct me if i'm wrong, isnt that an RB26 in that RX7?

 

[Holdenhsvgtsr]

looks like a supra engine to me,skylines twins are on the other side of the engine

Why couldn't have have just called it a bloody door?!?

 

[Jim Prower]

damn ugly! gone way too far, but the idea was good:

With that Cowl Induction hood, I thought he'd at LEAST put a Hillborn Injected Big Block Chevy in there. Perhaps a Twin-Turbo Smallblock, with the scoops.

but just a 2JZ? How dissappointing. We want you to install a bigger Katamari...err, engine.

 

[Metar]

but just a 2JZ? How dissappointing.

Just because it's got a different engine doesn't mean he's not allowed to rice it out additionally. He probably riced it out with that huge hood first, and then swapped the engine. The engine looks ok, though...

EDIT: I meant, that the engine could be nice and all, but the hood, after all, is still rice.

 

[Jim Prower]

Naw, the hood's for clearance, I was just picking on it because it looks like it belongs on a Twin-Turbo Camaro.

 

[Azuremen]

I'm kinda with Jim on this one. I saw that and thought "Oh, another V8 swaped RX-7.. with rice"

 

[ND4SPD]

Those poor rx7's.....

 

[GT40 MKII]

Those poor rx7's.....

someone needs to save all the poor abused RX-7's and give them a better life

 

[Carlos]

it's a poor supra engine

 

[GT4_Rule]

Actually, doesn't Mercedes call them coupes, despite being four door. Weren't they touted as being the first "four door coupe" or some junk.

At least it is a coupe like Benz wanted it

Thats the CLS-class. The S-class is the flagship luxury sedan.

Well, I hate the rims, hate the paint (on that car anyway), and hate the coupe conversion.

Sorry its sort of late, but Sakiale is right on. That's a S class. You can tell by the headlight too.

 

[Azuremen]

Mkay, I am not a big fan of Mercedes, so I just look at their fancish cars and go "meh, they all look too similar these days" Kinda like VW's and the Jetta and Passat deal.

 

[McLaren]

Please tell me what is so questionable about the SP Engineering Supra-7?

Esp. when it pushes 990Hp.

 

[slidesquad#1]

Turning a light nimble sportscar into your idea of a modern landyacht=Tool.

 

[Metar]

Power or not, it looks absolutely hideous. The hood is not needed - regular Supras and Modified Supras come along just fine with a regular-size hood. Perhaps a bulge for the bigger turbo, or a small scoop - but not this... creature.

 

[McLaren]

So, basically the hood is the only thing to ya'll? Yeah, it's a little fugly, but at least it's far from ricer status.

 

[Carlos]

rice:

and look at the pic I posted, look at the hood!! O_O

IMHO

 

[McLaren]

That's hardly rice, bud.

 

[toyomatt84]

Those Blitz Technospeed Z1's are definitely not rice.

 

[TheCracker]

Maybe not rice - but certainly questionable.

No rear spoiler = No rear grip

And where exactly are you going to be able to use that 990BHP?

And Supra engines belong in a Supra, not an RX-7

Would you stick a Nissan Skyline engine in a Ford Mustang?

 

[Tornado]

And where exactly are you going to be able to use that 990BHP?

I fail to see the relavence.

Where are you goig to use that 505 BHP?

Where are you going to use the 1000 BHP?

And Supra engines belong in a Supra, not an RX-7
Would you stick a Nissan Skyline engine in a Ford Mustang?

That depends:
This Mustang:

No way in hell.

Or This Mustang:

Why the hell not?


Either way, your assertion that Supra motors belong in Supra's is quite flawed, because the engine in it was used in pretty much every RWD car Toyota made in the 90's. And perhaps they wanted an engine in this RX-7 that wouldn't go off with the force of a low-yeild nuclear bomb if overstressed.
