I don't think it looks bad at all, very few imports can pull this look off. tC is one of them.

You'd think if you're trying to sell a car on ebay, you'd post better pictures. Only one of them is big enough to see anything.

^^ yeah.. the mustang GT is so slow with its mid 13's STOCK

now neons.. not only unreliable.. but yes, slow.

The only cars I like racing stripes on are older, larger muscle cars. 60's camaros, GTO, etc. They should leave them off newer cars.

racing stripes belong in underwear not on cars. especially not on a tC.

yeah yeah very funny

thats not when i ment you guys...

i mentioned those cars cuz i usially saw the stripes on them and i had in mind the older mustangs and SRT-4 neons...although i dont like the stpires in general, they look somewhat reasonable on them cuz they are faster than a stock TC

ive seen so many dealerships trying to do hip, trendy, and visually appealing "MODS", but 75% of them dont look right. up until i found this on e-bay, i had yet to see a tc that made me laugh and make a funny face. for my tastes, if they had stuck it on the drivers side and left out the rear portion of the stripe, it would only be half as silly. also if they toss a set of trd springs on it would look way better. but thats just me.

You guys are missing the whole point of the stripe!!!!!!!!!! The car may be stock but that stripe just added 25 HP. Compare that to only 15 HP from flames on the sides!!

But seriously, I think the stripe looks ok but I wouldn't call it a racing stripe, more of an accent piece!
