I hate when people put racing mirrors on their car. There is no advantage aerodynamically (for a street car), and it doesn't give you any sort of useful view.
 
I only dislike it if the car never gets on a track.
 
Here's a questionable Pontiac mod:

So, why did they make that thing?
 
Probably drunk. I'm more surprised people actually BOUGHT them.

At least it's gone now....















It is gone, right?

Uhh, it's clearly a replica of the Prodrive WRC wing... on a non WRC, bone stock WRX STi... Do I need to say more?
 
Speaking of Pontiacs! It's a Caddy Aztec!



This is pretty hilarious. Working in downtown Oakland, CA, I see many crappy modifications like this(Bentley Grill + emblem on a Chrysler 300C, anyone?). I'll have to snap pictures of them when I see them, because they're everywhere.

I believe you've totally failed to grasp PR's point.

Wow, I used to think that companys that built wings like that were stupid, but I guess its the customers that are even stupider.

Oh look! The spaceship from Star Trek!

Oh no...that was the car's wing :indiff:
 
PERFECT BALANCE
The stabilizer things look like they are made of cardboard or something, they are all bent and stuff.

EDIT: I saw this at a store close to my house. Pontiac Enzo? Ferrari Sunfire?



I guess it doesnt look TOO bad, but talk about questionable...........he had sports seats for the BACK of the car too..

You know what's sad. I think I actually like that. :scared: Minus the roof scoop and make the hood scoop functional. It's better than what it looks stock and its better than any other body kit I've seen on a SunFire.

Well, I have to agree it looks pretty darn good for a sunfire, but again, this is the questionable modifications thread, and that car certainly qualifies.
 
The modification? Not questionable. The question is, why, WHY on a Sunfire?!
If it had a midengine and functional scoops, and was in black, Id definitely go for that.

Oh yea it's definately questionable. I would say it was questionable to by that over a Cavalier which isnt much better on the eyes but it is better none the less. I was just sayin for some reason I like it.

The fact that it is a Sunfire makes it questionable.

Would look even better if it didn't have panel gaps the size of a small galaxy.

That was my point. Sorry about your broken GT4 disc, but better than not having system or game. 'til I get GT Mobile if it ever comes out...
 
Haha, the lower turn signals on the front of that Sunfire are from a MR2.
 
OMG It's the Nissan Enzo Ferrari 360 Challenge F430!

Oh and don't tell me they done that to a real Type X. :(
 
The owners are stupid when they try to manipulate their cars into supercars.
The people who believe them...well, you guys can decide that.

I say this because I was recently asked about the TestaSupra (or whatever the hell that yellow Supra Ferrari was called) being a real Ferrari.

My honest reply was, "No comment."
 
Hey under18carbon, thanks for making me revisit the taste of my lunch. :yuck:
 
Seriously, what type of douchebag does it take to build one of those kit cars?

What do you say when people ask you what it is?! Do you even show them the motor.

"DUUDE, I got this KILLER ka24de under the hood...add some more sticker and some NAAAAWZ and it will kill any lamborghini!"
