i like his setup minus the extra injectors in the intake. It looks like it would be a badass car. Its part lexus but the drivetrain is basically all supra.

Its a nice looking car, but I'd rather have Mcnelson's turbo gs.

Mcnelson's looks mean and more of a sports car. This GS looks too luxurious and the color doesn't flow well for a car with turbo. The interior should be darker and the front headlight should be cleared.

Default Why?

Strange, I mean Mcnelsons car does look like a race car, but whether you are a fan of chrome or the aluminum look, black wheels just don't look right on a lexus IMO, that green GS seems to be done right reguardless and worth the money, and it is soo clean(obviously cause of the new paint), but Mcnelsons has that low front clip and it being black definatly shows the chips and stuff

Both cars have alot of work done to them and I credit them for that, but also I find it very strange that unless you have money to just burn why would you put all those crazy mods on a car and sell it, its not like your investment will be returned.

Green is strange but black is a pain ahahahhahaha

Black cars are the best looking cars when waxed and taken care of.

That is true, but for a daily driver thats a hard tast, and I hate those damn little rock chips on the hood and all over front bumper from rocks on the highway.

Yeah black does look damn good when clean, but it is so hard to keep that way, if you just keep the car in the garage and don't drive it everyday then you can keep it nice but I drive mine everyday so the rock chips and the constant washing (swirls) would drive me crazy. My other car drives me up the wall because of its dark pearl color, in a daily driver its a no no. If I by a strictly transportation mobile I would consider a black car for sure.

My point was look at both of the recent pics of those 2 cars and the mods done...I don't think the color should base a decision between the 2....
