Here is my take:

I like VIP style and definitely appreciate it. VIP'ers take some bold moves, yet execute it in a very clean way. While I appreciate it and am learning more about it, it isn't for everyone. I'm not going to take my car that route even though I like it. I would rather style it after my own tastes while incorporating ideas from VIP, EXE or even "tuner" if you will.

Each car should represent the individual who owns it.

hmm , I didn't vote cuz I can't say I don't like it and I can't say that I do but than again I can't say I don't care or don't know. Maybe add a somehwre inbetween option to the poll.. I like VIP cars like TLW's but I'm not a fan of that extreme VIP with widebody,curtains,and crazy stretched tires with crazy negative camber. I like a car dropped but I'm not a big fan of how it looks slammed to the floor. So I guess I'm inbetween.

Wow you read my mind. I like to add sublte vip touches to my car but overall I'm more for the tuner sleek look.

I Think Me And Bluelex Are On The Same Page. I Couldn't Roll Like That. I'd Have No Front Or Rear Bumper, Tail Pipes Or Probably Car For That Matter. I'll Leave That To You California And Florida Peoples With Your Nicely Paved Roads. I Prefer The Sporty, Classy Look. Nothing Too Aggressive But Not Too Subtle Either.

I like it to but like other have said its too impractical for me. Mine is a daily driver. I respect their vision though, reminds me of the illustrated cars you see on t-shirts and what not with crazy slammed cars with cool wheels and all. Oooops I forgot to vote.

I like VIP style....but thats not very practical for daily driving. Im going for middle ground...a sport luxury style.
