It makes no difference is there is more blood sweat and tears in that car. It is garbage, it has no style, no taste, IT HAS BLATANT BODY DAMAGE, an intercooler WITH NO TURBO, wheels that DO NOT FIT, and a terrible looking interior. There is no professional craftsmanship in this car at all, and I would be embarrased if my car looked like this. Building a show car takes planning, and quality work, and this car exhibits none of the above. I still do not understand how HIN allowed this car to be in it. This car show is supposed to be the best of the best, and this car honestly embarrassed Scion.

 

here is a pic of the brackets.

 

how does it have no style and taste? does your stock car with a factory option lip kit have more style!?!?

and why on earth do you keep saying the wheels dont fit, they are tucked perfectly on the car!

 

of course i saw the brackets, why else would i have commented on how CRAPPY they look.

If the wheels fit, they wouldnt be pushing the bumper off the car. I saw the car coming off the trailer and I was watching the wheel push the bumper off.

regardless, the bumper is cracked and they decided to do the riciest thing possible; use stickers to cover up the huge crack.

the car is crap dude, just accept it. It has a bunch of mods that werent planned well and werent installed well either.

 

What does my car have to do this with this thread? If you want to make a separate thread about it then go ahead

 

I have to agree with quietthings. car was poorly preped and setup. The carpet was scattered with dirt. Car had a full stereo setup in the rear, so it wasn't a race car or anything, so no excuse for the body to be damaged. its in a national competition not a local dealership show.

 

I was actually more disappointed that memphis audio didn't have their xD there. I really wanted to see that one

 

exactly, just because it has a lot of blood, sweat, and tears behind it does not mean its show-worthy or that it has more taste and style than even a factory car. i could spend countless hours attaching a cardboard body kit to my car with gold rivets - that doesnt make it any cooler than when it was stock. id rather look at a mostly stock car with nice wheels, lip kit, lowered, and tint than to have to see such an embarassment.

 

well after seeing the rear quarter pic, it looks more like the bumper just doesn't fit well. but thats me...sorry I posted this car

 

dont be sorry... not all of us could make it to HIN to see this piece of work.

 

heh

 

no worries jim, its just like fools gold

and lucifer, any reputable body shop should be able to weld a set of brackets for some buckets if u need.

 

looks lame.... and i thought MY mods were stupid...

 

Wow... that car is HORRIBLE.

There is no reason a sponsor who cares about their image would let a car like that leave their shop! I've never cared for HIN, but this... is awful. Ghetto HIN or something? That might explain the crappy quality of that xD.

It looks decent from far away, but definitely not close up.

 

^ I believe the phrase is "Good from far, but far from good."
(although i think its at very least good, but def not great)

 

I wonder if that penny is on heads? That's good luck you know!

 

my BBQ has some brackets similair to that to hold one some of the shelving up.

 

I have to say, I love the paint... that satin black is sex.

Wow that video... I'm still scratching my head at that one. hahahaha. That guy has lots of "boys". I wonder how many are ACTUALLY his 'boys'. What a winner. Yeah he flubbed up on the 2007 xD. *rolls eyes*

 

Yeah... this tC? The SEMA tC and the winner of Wild Scion at HIN Minneapolis in 2007?








TOTAL crap because it had a 2" long crack in the body kit the night it was unveiled. It was so low to the ground that when the driver crept it off the trailer, it cracked.

Sorry, I had to! hahahaha


Not everything is going to please the tastes of everyone else.

 

that wheel/tire setup is TERRIBLE
