I still don't see any VIP inspiration here. Is it just me?

There is a fine line between have a nice luxury sedan and a VIPstyled sedan. People may be hardcore VIP enthusiasts but without strict guidelines the trend will become diluted and it will just get out of control.

Now here is what I would call a VIP inspired, non-VIP platformed vehicle...

Default VIP Stlye

If any one wants to see VIP than Japan is the place to be. The place were we go on the weekend VIP is taken to the extreme. Also there Is another place just right down the road and we go there to watch street drifting. Right now I’m in the process of setting my car up to drift it. If there is any one here in Japan hit me up.

That SC has an agressive stance for sure. Love the Interior on the black body.

Suka4thong, you are on your way to be "styled" but in all truth its more than just a flushed slam on a newer car that would help with the classification.

Do they have widebody fenders for the 2IS yet, if so try some on, and go even wider, pull/roll the rears another inch, and then swap out the "tuner yellow" meshies for some Weds LXZ's with a BBK and much love will be sent your way.

My .02¢

Even if some don't consider it VIP styled, keep doing what you are doing. Looks better than a lot of so called wanna be VIP cars out there I think it is a great start to a car that still has the paper plates on it
I agree CK6speed here. VIP or NOT, that's a sick looking IS.
