Boredom, bad taste and bucks is a dangerous mix... especially when there's a can of bondo and extra pipe nearby... :lol:

LOL, i thought the japanese were immune to rice?
Some of the spoilers on those cars are so big they dont look driveable.

Or at least not parkable! I REALLY hope that those people are doing this out of a sense of irony. It's horrible work too, not a trace of quality workmanship (hey you can still take a bad idea and execute it well). But then if it is an irony thing maybe that's the point.

It could be a contest, or just devoted fans of particular Anime movie or cartoons. They do look very cartoony

What a collection of sh*tters (with the exception of photos 3 to 6) :blink:
Makes some of the muppet 'chav' motors over here look normal!
Surely most of those must be plywood bolt-ons as a piss-take?

Well the cars themselves arent anything to be proud of performance wise. And most of the mods they put on are just idiotic. Who the hell would drive a car with a 12foot exaust going through the back? I prefer a nice clean car with posibly a 427 and some forced induction.... C5 lingenfelter anyone? 0-60 in less than 2secnds and a 1/4mile under 9. Now thats a sick machine.

^ agree... Plant 802hp to the pavement and reach 60mph within 1.97 secs without wheel spin? Tricky to say the least

aks and ye shall recive. http://www.lingenfelter.com/img/press/lpe%20-%208%20sec%20Vette.mov
thats a 1/4mile under 9seconds.
The lpe vette has more that meets the eye, it is not only a simple engine swap and forced induction setup (mild induction setup may I add at only about 15psi) it is a super car in disguise.

I would be had it not been for the fact that every professional sportsman and his wife in this country owns one :rant:
So for me it'd have to be a DB9 or the new Vantage V8
