So why is your friend so down on his car? Seems like a decent car to me. It could be a heck of a lot worse. It's not an Aztek or Hyiandai(sp) or worse a Corvair. Those would be cars to be down on.

(no-one will, so noone gets a cookie) LOL.


Heres his end of the deal, if he gets props, he will join CL. he likes the lexus brand but as of yet, knows little about them, this is my way of getting him hooked, so without further ado, his car:





and this was taken on a trip to vegas last year:



His mods are:

-k&n ru-3530 mated to a custom maf adapter.
-alumnium intake tube.
-sho-shop y pipe.
-nitto 455 tires.
-limo tint back three windows, 20% front two.
-door bezels painted body color.
-93 Cobra "SVT" badge on moonroof cover.
-MN Autosports Blue anodized underdrive Pulley kit (not installed).
-Roush Performance 2" Lowering springs (not installed).
-Kenwood Exceleon HU.
-Alpine Type S's in doors and rear deck (6 total).
-Infinity Tweeters.
-Subs coming soon.
-Cougar Leather and Aluminum Shift ****.
-Door Ding Gaurds Removed.
-Sylvania Silverstars High and Low beams.
-hella optilux driving lights.



So, what do you guys think? basically he doenst think his car can get props on a lexus site, he doesnt think its worthy LOL. Im tired of it, hes a car enthusiast too as we all are,he deserves props, so lets hear your thoughts and opinions!

and the guesser of the YEAR make and model still gets a cookie, except for AJ cause he already knows.

That is a rare bird, a Countor SVT. He is more than welcome here, we enjoy the diversity. This car got solid reviews when it debuted.

Im not really sure reggie, i think it migth be jealousy that my ford gets props on a lexus site. i wanted to show him that CL is such a great group, ANY car can get props here if modded tastefully or not at all depending on the model (there are some cars i just wouldnt give props to stock, asstech is one of them). he is coming from a forum where trolls are looked at very badly and not welcome. we dont care here, the more the merrier!
