+1 on NOT being VIP.

iS's are sport luxury vehicles.

VIP style is basically PURE inspired luxury vehicles.
VIP style usually is more extreme designs.
Slammed with wheels that have FAT lip and possibly a kit for example.

EXE style is based upon simple clean luxury designs.
Low but with wheels (18,19,20 inch usually) that are clean and simple that is realistic to daily driving conditions. Also could have a simple body kit or lip kit.

There is nothing VIP about the car. It looks like another regular boy-racer car. He needs to research on what makes a VIP car "VIP".

thank u. i have done alot of research on vip myself because i find it to be a very clean car style. i may never own one but i will always like and respect them.

and just to be clear i really like his IS, i just dont like him saying that its vip when i knew it wasnt
