Somewhere in between for me.

Something that looks neat and straight yet goes like a shower of sh!t, handles great and pulls up even better. Keep the big chrome rims and kit's for the Factory spec builds or ricers with their Lancers and Excels.

If it come down to it I'd never be able to drive something that's all show, to me that's just a statement. I see this VT dropped with big rims every few days with the sticker "Image is Everything" To me that's BS

Then again I've always loved sleepers- the quiet achievers that don't scream "LOOK AT ME"

Id have to say goes hard an looks neat

(not a beat up rust bucket that goes like a bat out of hell)

Id rather buy a stock v8 commy and spend **** loads on running gear

(no kit maybe big wheels no chrome ones if any thing big 19” Holden stocky’s. if any thin re trimmed seats nothing over the top still keeping the stock look )

I wouldn’t go out and waste my money buying a brand new clubsport or what not I would rather have people turn their heads because they herd something off tap than seeing a little jap car with a big kit an air brushing all over it

Ya' gotta build something that look's good and goes well. Whats the point in spending $90,000 dollars on doing up a car and not driving it for fear of scratching it or dirtying the undercarage

Buy what you want, do it up how you want, and drive it like you stole it!
