Questionable modifications: pictures inside!

[buickgnx88]

Here is a "1970 Ford Lincoln Continental 460 7.0L" (Really a '72-'76 Lincoln Continental with a 460 7.5L) and it's apparently original... I thought maybe it was a special edition but I couldn't find anything on it.

Looks like pink was an option, at least on the '76.

Ok, I've calmed down a bit. It was only a CL500 that was murdered by a Lithuanian. I'm fine... I'm fine...
I'm not really fine

Neither am I. I will find the creator and I will kill him. (I am not Liam Neeson)

Again, varying degrees of questionable.

FD3S RX-7 modified by Scoot.

It's got two 2-rotor rotary engines bolted together, pumping out around 470bhp. That's brilliant, nothing questionable about that, but look how they did a complete transformation of its rear end.

And I kinda like it...


But I'm not into its butterfly doors:

The Merc-a-like rear-end really doesn't match up well with the front, though the rear corner shot is definitely the superior angle. Seeing an RX-7 front-end coupled with scissor doors always looks wrong to me, however.

And many will no doubt agree that it sounds better than it looks.

I want that RX-7 so bad! Partly so I can replace the doors but mainly for that video.

What actually is that? Is it even a vehicle?

Only in the loosest sense of the word.

I was looking at that too
I wonder if it actually works

 

[MedigoFlame]

I suppose the idea isn't bad...but Rinspeed has a modified Tesla Model S called the XchangE. And the outside is far from the inside.

 

[The Stig Farmer]

Ah Rinspeed, maker of the Bedouin...

...a confused 911 pickup.

The back folds out and everything.

LOOK AT THE JEWELS. AND THE GEARKNOBS ON THE WHEEL

It supposedly drives it self and has 20-way adjustable seats.

I'm trying to find a Top Gear GIF for this...

Looks like the edge of a bone:

Rinspeeds are always cool.

Wheee!

 

[Callum B]

That 944 looks major derp. It reminds me of a Slowpoke.

 

[NoobMan DS]

what the hell did the S-Class do to deserve this?

Umm...nothing, I guess.

Other than...being a slave to smug owners who buy it just to impress and...err..."look smart".
Of course, that could be a false stereotype, and in no way does the S-Class itself deserve such treatment.

It's simply like a middle finger to those people who advocate the S-Class as a fashion tool and nothing more than that. Yet it's also an unpleasant sight for any of us regardless of our thoughts on the car.

EDIT: Wait, I don't think that's actually an S-Class! Pay attention to the contours, the lines surrounding the windows and so on. It's another sedan with W220 taillights, I think.

 

[The Stig Farmer]

The Splash and the Scuba are cool. The Bedouin is just wrong.











Anyway, A WILD FIERO APPEARS

 

[Callum B]

It's like I'm back on NFSU2! Actually that's making me want to play it again...

 

[Aesthetics]

Um..

Some split hood openings:

Some split hood openings:

I'd happily forgotten these were a thing..

 

[Tornado]

That one with the hood scoop was cool in Underground 2. It looked reasonably low key and gave a massive boost to the car's visual rating.

Ahh the NFU2 visual rating - or "Your car must be this garish to enter"

Just remind yourself that it can look great on certain cars, if done correctly: (of course, this isn't a modification though)

 

[Sage Ages]

I always liked the first Underground better.

Same here. Could not get into the 2nd one as much.

 

[Slash]

Not me. 2 was the better one.
