Questionable modifications: pictures inside!

[motortrend]

No, this is how you fill a car with money. Well, gold

 

[Tornado]

No. The proper way is to use these:

 

[motortrend]

I knew someone would say that. I love the original's intro with the miura. I would like to re-create that in GT5.

 

[Revelation1115]

Apparently this is the latest modifying trend:

That's one hell of a piggy bank!

 

[Prince.M5]

^^ Is that guy with the Lambo... XZIBIT?!!? Looks like him

 

[Joey D]

It's 50 Cent.

 

[Prince.M5]

It's 50 Cent.

Thanks for clearing it up mate, I forgot to ''check'' the image link

Volkswagen New Beetle with rocket boosters. Or, sort of:

Pink Bugatti Veyron EB 16.4:

And..oh my, oh my, such sacrilege...well, don't you think so?

Who needs portable scaffolding?

 

[Delphic Reason]

It looks like a Jungle Gym...

Real men don't need stairways! They climb up on the tires!

Besides, that'll drag once you get into the pit. Stucksville every time. At least when you drag axle, you have an excuse.

Typical Mega Truck Entrance
1. Climb up on 44"+ tires
2. Transfer to tiny side steps standard step bars, Hood, bed, etc., and shimmy to door
3. Cling to side as you open door and step in.
4. Start engine and immediately clear out the throttle to make people forget how awkward step 1-3 were

Optional: cut hatch in cab floor and climb in via cradle and 4-links. Works best with full tube-frame chassis.

Then, of course, there's the utter lack of Deuce-and-a-half, the unequal-length four-links, world's worst designed panhard-bar system...and unnecessary, since you can easily triangulate the setup and eliminate that thing.

Why did i open this thread.

Volkswagen New Beetle with rocket boosters. Or, sort of:

Not sort of, the thing is real:

also, the Hello Kitty Testarossa is awesome.

 

[Jim Prower]

Eh...I think the wheels could have been something other than spray-bombed...

 

[Crash]

And..oh my, oh my, such sacrilege...well, don't you think so?

In a way, the hello kitty is awesome, and I can see why someone would do this, but with this, I am embarrassed about my people...

 

[Jim Prower]

Dude, If you knew how often I was embarrassed by my people....

but that's a subject for the Debate forum. and I ain't goin' in there.

 

[vfrmaverick]

too bad the exterior is a really bad p-chop

 

[orimarc]

Er, "thanks" to Ebay Motors:

Whoa...thanks for informing. That's awesome!
I said 'sort of' not because I was exactly sure that it's a mock-up though, just wondering whether it's real or not...now I know, thanks

I also do appreciate the owner's love for Hello Kitty.

It's just that for me...I think it's a bit inappropriate to do that kind of design on a Ferrari, kinda ruins its authentic beauty...it's fine if the design is on something like a Volkswagen Golf, Honda Civic, or any 'everyday car.' Still an opinion, though.

Not that I'm the kind of person who hates any modified European exotics that change the whole character of the car.

Say...I really love the Gemballa MIG-U1, a futuristically modified Enzo Ferrari with jet-like personality. It's got some epic sci-fi feel!

 

[Prince.M5]

I was looking for something but not this:

 

[Ibonibo]

what's an airbag?

though could be hard to push down the triggers

 

[Jim Prower]

Yeah. Should've been a PS3.

((They see me trollin', they hatin'....)) X3

 

[Tornado]

That 360 is so going to catch on fire.

 

[Delphic Reason]

If it gets the Red Ring of Death, does Microsoft replace the whole car?

"Yo dawg, I heard you like driving games, so we put a game pad in your wheel, so you can drive while you drive!"

To celebrate 626 pages of thread, I give you 626:

Yes... it's a car so obscure, even the pictures are tiny.

 

[Joker-GTBR]

Not so obscure, i saw some 626's in Brazil (actually they're the most popular Mazda here after the MX3. Some people say there are Miatas here, but i never even knew about it)

For a second, I thought it was a Grand Prix.

 

[Jim Prower]

They're not widespread, but I see a few now and again, yeah. Even more obscure would be the Millennia...

 

[mustangGT90210]

Millenia are obscure? Those are nice cars, been in a few (yes, multiple )
