I suppose you kinda messed up the quote stuff. That's okay.

And I suppose also reinforced my post in a way, those look better.

No. Way. I found a proper Del Sol.

I can clearly see that hood spacer on the hood but the mods? Jesus Christ, this guy chose bloody well. My new hero.

 

[Heldenzeit]

Not bad. I like the ARC pieces on the bottom bumper. ARC has always made nice things.

Not sure...

 

[Heldenzeit]

I appreciate the work, but I wouldn't call it tasteful. It's the automotive version of a tribal tattoo haha.

 

[Downhill Dino]

It's not the Sharpie'd Lamborghini which is a lot more creative than that.

 

[LivingWithGames]

Still not tasteful. Artistic though.

Inb4 someone create "The artistic cars thread"

I've never been an MGB fan, but that silver one with rubber filling the arches is hot.

I'm on the fence as to how people will receive this car, but I personally think it's tasteful (but pointless). It's a 300bhp MR Golf MK4.

Love it! Reminds me of the Group B cars, "let's take the engine and move it to the back!" Mid-engine hatches are awesome.

Early 70s Mercury Comet. 302 powered, stroked to 347ci (5.6L), full roller motor, has a Paxton supercharger on it. Has a 5 speed Tremec manual transmission.

YESSSSS.

Right?? That was exactly my reaction

I'd like a more subtle color, but damn that thing looks good. Getting one of these and doing a number on it has been on my mind for a while. Full road-race style, maybe IMSA flares, front snowplow and stuff. And ideally the stock 4.3 but fortified and turbocharged, altough I don't have the slightest idea if those can be made strong enough to withstand big power.

They came with quite a few engines, you guys got the 4.6L I6 too. Although some of these have 304s. I would imagine they are actually pretty stout since I've seen people put pretty built 360s in them.

No V8s at all in Mexico, so swapping one in would mean cross-polination or importing one, and I'm not paying for shipping a several-hundred-pound lump just to have a family-V8 in one. LSx/Hemi III here we go.

Doesn't surprise me. LSx are awesome but everyone runs them. But then again that's your best option. Definitely would be a sweet car regardless.

I don't think I've ever seen an LS swapped Spirit.

Just like this, only with modern rubber/wheels and more dramatic front and rear spoilers.

Oh my god yes. That is sexy.
