Luxo CB7? Pulling...it...off!!! I would love to see the interior.

Big wheels =/= Luxury

Those wheels...

Big wheels =/= Luxury

Big wheels ≠ the only modification.

There looks to be no luxury item on the whole car.

Doesn't mean it doesn't stick out like a sore, harsh-riding thumb.

Haven't you said functional isn't tasteful? Why would tasteful have to be functional? Just saying... And since we're getting technical about what is or isn't luxury, I'll point out that I never technically said "luxury" in the post.

It'd help your case if that car was actually tasteful.

and, what does this mean?

Luxury is usually associated with comfort. I'm just trying making a point. Never said anything about being tasteful.

 

[Castle Bravo]

What's tasteful or not is going to vary from person to person, just as the willingness to point out any lack is dependant on one's prerogative. As for the definition of "luxo": http://www.latin-dictionary.org/luxo/. Take from that what you will, I really don't give a damn.

Your logic is hipocritical.

As for the definition of "luxo": http://www.latin-dictionary.org/luxo/URL]. Take from that what you will, I really don't give a damn.

There is none according to that site, but that site is for Latin. I don't see your point...

He's tried to translate "I don't give a damn", that's why.

Also, speaking Latin, the only Latin translation for "luxo" would be a derivative of brightness.

Huh... That's odd.

Thank god we're speaking English then. That car isn't bright

I like to dance around in a three sizes too small pink polkadot leotard.

Taking quotes out of context and reversing their order isn't too far off of making them up completely.

Right... I still don't see your logic.

 

[Sage Ages]

All I ever said was that it didn't fit as being "luxorious".

Silvia with an RB? Check. JZ? Check. LS? Check. Unoriginal.

VK56DE is a swap I hadn't heard of before.

I have but usually a sponsor is paying for it and it's ending up in a drift car. The only other swap I've found more interesting is the 1UZ and 2UZ swaps into Supras

Big wheels ≠ the only modification.

While it may not be the only modification it surely is the one that made it a candidate for the questionable mods thread and not the tasteful one.

 

[ImaRobot]

I like it. Dont see much problems with it if it's just for cruising.

Considering its one of Hondas luxury vehicles, why wouldnt it be?

I wouldn't consider the Accord a luxury vehicle, but I think it looks pretty swell too.

I'm not going to comment on the rest and I'll come right and say that I don't like this one either, but thank all that is holy they're not RSs.

That Civic has knockoff wheels.

Uhm, I see lug nuts.

 

[Sage Ages]

My bad; knockoff wheels.

 

[TexRex]

Oooohhhh, fake!!!

Obviously that's not where my mind goes when I read something like that.

And here's my attempt to save the page.

Reduce wheel diameter by 2-3 inches while keeping the same tire diameter and it's a big yes from me.
