    I dont see anything that resimbles a honda accord. I actually like it, though it is purely for show. Everything there is custom, grill bumpers, dash, seat, EVERYTHING.

    I wouldnt do that to my car though. I wonder what his engine looks like? I would have spent it on a hummer and put tv's in it lol, or got a toyota SR% with the TRD package lifted it on some 44" and ran over all the ricers...lol

    after $100K spent I'd hope it doesnt look like an Accord! Lexus SC430 front and Mercedes SLK rear. but WHY spend $100K on an accord when you could buy the real car for half that?

    i see that car ALL the time, its absolutely flawless to be honest, i dont know how he doesnt have more best of show awards, he's up in NY/NJ wit that car club Low Mentality, its mostly indian guys in that club, thye also got a sick toyota 4 runner in that club. In person it looks A LOT nicer, it has a pearl orange paint that is shinier then michael jordans head. Here are several pics i took of their car club at a car show last year......

    ok now we all love customizing our cars, but $100k into an 11 year old accord?!? That's fucking stupid. What does this guy do that he can afford to put that kind of money into a car? And WHY?!?!??

    Not only that - though there is a lot of very high quality work on there, I think $100k is REALLY pushing it. I don't think the work done there is worth 40x as much as the car itself. It's either BS or the guy got the hard shaft triple time up the ass with no lube.

    And my GOD, that GS - 4 runner thing is quite possibly the god-awful ass-ugliest thing I have ever seen someone do to a car. Absolutely fucking hideous. My eyes hurt from looking at that fucking thing.

    these are all out show cars, if u've been in the show scene u would understand, their not tryin to race ferrari's or vettes on the road. Also that car has far beyond 100k put into it, the parts alone for just the exterior can buy u a new car already, plus paint, interior, and actual body work. Although i would never spend that much on a car, i respect all the hardwork done to it cuz he turned down numerous sponsors and had all the work done by his crew out of their own garage

    yea, they got some serious cash in those rides... and phoze is right, unless u've been a part of the show scene, tunerz might not understand the philosophy... here we go though, a simple taste, a lil less dollar figure though...

    if ur a tuner, and u got $25g's to through down on ur ride.. what are you gonna do.. maybe make your car kinda nice to look at (rims, lower, maybe some tv's, maybe some decent audio), but mostly, ur gonna want to make your ride fast as hell.. someone may wonder why u spending $25g's on a corolla, they'll say "go buy a real car and be done with it." even if u get your 4 banger to break the double century mark, out-running a ferrari enzo to boot (btw, $25k would not be sufficient to do that), u'd still have ur critics... the addiction is speed is the same addiction to building one off show cars, its like being addicted to crack.. its a combination of pride, wanting to be original, and being competitive. so...

    that accord is bad ass... though i still wonder where in the hell he got $100+ g's to do that. hell, living in NYC is expensive enough...

    and that 4-runner, it'd look better if he got some wheels that'd actually extend to the edge of the fenders. that 1 thing, would dramastically alter the appearance.. and the fish tank, pimp, very pimp. xhibit would be proud ;-)

    All I know is that:

    1. Extremely fucking ghey :D me no like but w/e flipz his ghetto boat.
    2. Only a dumbass would spend 100K in a damn Honda.
    3. All that bling ghetto un-faboulous crap just killed the re-sale price by like 150%... most that he would get for that car IF he ever sells it is like 20 g's TOPS.

    I dk I don't like the car, too much crap I would rather spend that kind of money in a damn house :D

    just playing devil's advocate here, but likewise couldnt the "show" people say the same thing about tuners? if they asked me: "why did you spend $2000 to get rims, suspension, and other crap on your COROLLA?" id probably say "just because", because honestly...this is a corolla forum after all guys...:p

    who knows, maybe the guy doesnt need the 100k and already has a house or apartment. different people = different priorities in life.

    u guys just dont know how to appreciate hard work, everybody says they rather use the money spent on a car to get a better car, then why are we all at a COROLLA forum spending money on our cars? why dont we all go out and buy better cars?
