Its not a bad show, good for some ideas at times, just basic interesting stuff, not stufing a coffee maker into my centre console, I scored the complete season one on DVD from a mate in the states.

Is it a Robotic Wing or is it like the HELPME Silvia with the Hydraulic Boot and Wing...just a query cause the Boot on the Silvia looks sick...not sure bout Lambo doors on a Civic though but hey......To each his/her own

the only thing that really disturbed me of the show was the one where they put a fish tank in the car wif some fishes... i really hope there was a way of keeping the car cool all summer or i hope its easy to get the dead fish out... lol

i gotta agree that some of the things are good...... then some are bad

a fish tank in the back, coffee maker in the front, chandelier for the interior light, a clothes steamer and vanity mirror in the boot

the one i liked was the love truck (can exactly remember its name) . think it was blue and it had a torneo cover with raised vertically by remote.

i gotta say all their interior work looks great.

the one i like most was the one with the ping pong table at the back, that was mad.

yeah, the ping pong table one was alright.

but the thing is he is a auto parts driver, so i dont see how a ping pong table, game cube, seat, subs and amps are going to help him much

btw that episode has been on the past 2 weeks.... damn mtv

Yeah the chevy luv truck.."mikado" edition, what a beast for camping, yeah the funkstar of trim Ish he can do some awesome shit with interiors, and the ping pong table went into the ford ranger, I was into that tangello paint til I found out its almost as expensive as flip style paints

The crappiest one was when they scrapped some guys car and bought a new Kia SUV or something and just put a new stereo in it or some crap.

The best one was the 2 door gangster car. The paint job was awesome; candy apple fading from light to dark, and an awesome suede interior.

But every episode you have to say "Hey it looks good, but does it still drive like a piece of shit"

true that. they show them at the start bunny hoping, cruching gears and backfiring, but you never really see the car actually getting fixed

i gotta admit most of the things are creative and look good, but who in their right mind would put over $20k into a car that will still run like a bag of shit

some nice ideas, but some complete crap too hehehe
and i agree on the engine side.. they dont even paint the engine bay or detail the engine..

its like, mad car pulls up, pops the hood and its all dusty and oily with wires going everywhere and its a different colour to the body.. wtf??

but the mikado was awesome..

I watch that show a lot. I tried to apply to be on it but you have to live in southern California to qualify. They need to do a Pulsar dammit! They've never had one on there and they almost never have ANY Nissans on there. Cool show though. I'm always laughing though because these cars look so good but most are total crap mechanical wise. Then again if someone dumped 20-30 thousand dollars into my car I think I'd go ahead and spend the cash for another engine and transmission and get the whole car done. One of the funniest ones was when they brought in a Ford Escort, arguably one of the crappiest cars ever made, and turned it into a BMW clone.
