I think it's stupid....who is going to watch the tv in the doors when you can't even sit back there? 30 speakers? Where will the sound stage be at. The amount of money this guy wasted on that car he could have use that money and moved into a better house.

There's done well, and there's overdone.

It could have been tastefully pulled together, but I guess the creators wanted over-the-top.

This is what happens when you have too much money to spend, and none of that money was spent in art school...

"I like my music"

I would've never guessed that in a million years

Not really my style but it is crazy. The only thing that bothers me is that he spent all that money on audio and he went with a cheap bodykit from a knock off company

Atrocious... For the money that was spent on that, that GS could be something fierce.... Although, it wouldn't surprise me if all that audio equipment turned out to be junk brands that could be bought with a few hundred dollars...

That thing is terrible. Kit, rims, door panels all trash. He has loads of money tied up in there and probably knows his audio equip, but thats no substitution for taste.

I am actually pretty disapointed that I didn't see any TV's under the hood, what are you supposed to look at when you are working on the car?

I actually think it is a feat in engineering and am quite impressed. I know how hard it can be to get stuff like that in your car and make it look good.
