Pimp My Ride - Opinions Thread

[Scooby]

i dont mind the show... i just hate the cars.

[Pope John]

I want MTV to pimp my ride.

[tex]

i dont like the shit they do to the cars, most of it is tacky as hell
and i know they're fucked to a degree because of marketing (ie the brands they use)

but i have mad respect for their install skills, the guys are really damn good at what they do

[Sparky]

I want MTV to play more god damn music and stop airing these stupid reality shows. That or they shold change their name to reflect the change of broadcasting.

[NoseMaster]

They usually put completely worthless shit in the cars. Like one of the only episodes I saw they turned this guys trunk into a fucking conveyor belt with 3 PSPs going back and forth on it. Because he worked at an airport. What the hell good is that?

[ward]

i dont mind it i just hate watching it for more than 5 minutes

[Binman]

Ditto. 99% of the custom cars I see look tacky and cheap looking. And generally there are annoying people driving them, blasting their damn music in my ear. It irritates me when people install stereo equipment who's intended audience isn't sitting in the car...

I just think the concept of pimping anyone's car is stupid.

If you don't like the car that you bought, then sell and buy one that you will like.

That's like putting big-ass exhaust on shitty little ricers or something. If you want a car that SOUNDS like it has power, buy a car that has the power to begin with. Like a Mustang or Charger.

Nosemaster, you hit the nail on the head, that's exactly why i started this thread.

Xzibit: "Well, Mike works a ice skating rink, so we decided to hook him up for his very own ICE maker, check it out, 400 LB of ICE fits in this trailer, SICK OR WHAT"

NO Xzibit, that's gay, now shut the fuck up, and stop flailing your arms around my TV screen :\ Everytime this guy says one word, he starts moving his arms around like he's on stage RAPPING. Ho-Mo.

[Pope John]

They have nice rims though.

...Rims.

[Da Lucky 1]

I really hate the stereo thing too. gives it a bad name.

No stock car can come close to my audio/entertainment setup, and none of the stuff is even top of the line. You can't get a lot of stuff factory. and with the whole ricer thing, its ricer when its a near factory civic w/ an exhaust that can hold a small child. Its completely different when its a 10 second supra. (don't start a imports vs domestics war you jackass. your probably one of those wankers who bitches about outsourcing too)

[hans5849]

i remember once they did this azn kids car and he had nothing done to the motor and it was all body work, fucking stupid if you ask me. Preformance then Style (if you can call it that).

On the subject go over to gearhead garage and make a suggestion for my muffler so i don't sound like a ricer.

How about not watching it instead of bitching?

Simple concept if you think about it.

There's no such thing as a 10-second Supra. Haven't you ever heard the joke, what's the difference between a 500HP BPU+ Supra and an 800HP BPU+++ Supra? They both run 11 seconds in the 1/4 mile. :P

...and yeah, Pimp My ride is stupid. Overhaulin' on TLC is 10 times better.
