Default Look at all these tastelessly modded GS4xx in my area...

I was bored so I searched auto trader for GS400 and 430s within 200 miles of my area just to see what's out there. I was amazed at how many tastelessly modified cars there were. hopefully they don't belong to anyone here.( I really doubt it)check them out....

I think the last one looks fine actually...

I can't believe the top one is asking 21k for a car with that high of mileage.

The wheels I see on some cars just amaze me. Do you think they actually ask for the ugliest wheels in the store or just get lucky
