ghetto fabulous.

Someone should message the seller and ask how much added HP all his mods added... I bet he'd say it's close to the ISF's 416HP. hahaha

Oh you haven't heard of the F-Sport computer upgrade? It is good for at least 25hp to the wheels.

Everybody is entitled to modify their cars in whichever way that they choose. Stop giving this guy so much crap because it's not the "norm" around here.

Most performance car forums would give you guys crap for running rubber band stretched tires with "ghetto" wheel fitment 3 inches too wide or offsets 50mm too agressive...

I bet none of you guys would like for your cars to be posted on another forum and made fun of because it's not the way they would modify it. Grow up...

Yes, but everyone has about the same taste when modifying their car. Would you do that to your nice SC? Probably not.

There are some nice mods on that car, such as the system in the trunk and headrest monitors. Unfortunately, the paint, wheels, tints, etc just screams tacky.

It's a good thing the owner didn't spend time on CL - he/she would have been flamed mercilessly.

That couldn't be further from the truth.... everybody has the same taste? What is that? I would modify my SC different than I would modify my GS430, just like I would modify a bicycle in a different fashion. The point being made here is not how I would modify anything..... it's not my car. If this fella modified it doing a two-tone, it's because "HE" thought it was a good idea, and if he is happy with the outcome, that is all that matters at the end of the day.

When people go out of their way to make threads about others' peoples cars, clearly for other members to bash them, it degrades this beautiful community.
