oh borsty, dont lie to us. we know that's what your plans are for your car eventually. you dont need to hide it.

y'know, minus the nasty blue (yes, all of it) and ugly ass body kit, it's actually a pretty clean car... minus the crap

Such is the definition of clean...A car without all the crap on it.

I mean, technically you could say that about every car you have ever seen. "Wow, that Civic is really clean. Minus the 14" rims, the 2' spoiler, the broken, homemade, fiberglass body kit, and the rattle can paint job. Yeah, other then all that stuff, it's pretty clean."

P.S. I am just bustin your balls.

Without all the blue, and some new wheels I could tolerate it

$25,000, it's a little much.

The kit and the tails aren't my taste, but W/E... I'd rock it for half the price.

H e lists a Boost Gauge, yet nothing is "boosted" except the winning bid.

I think what he meant was the car is in good shape. When you see a civic thats a 99 or so and you say its clean its usually done right. When you see an older trans am or F-body for that matter. When people say its clean they usually mean its in good shape. Because those cars are beat on a lot and tend to be a lot older. So a clean car would be something with hardly any if any dents scratches etc..

I know you're just giving him a hard time but I wanted to say that I know what he meant =P

I just think its funny . . . So the guy put on a bodykit and some blue. That car is pushing more then enough power to smoke any Cavalier or Cobalt SS around here , yet he is a "ricer" cause he did some visual upgrades. Gotta love kids. . .

Whats so gaudy about it? I think the tail light covers are nasty and the racing seats don't look all that great, but the rest is good. Don't get me wrong though, I think $25K for that is RIDICULOUSLY over priced, but its still pushing a great amount of power.

^^^ Was meaning to show you that link for a while, Borsty... It's a Firebird underneath

That's the only body kit (other than the Firehawk one) that looks good on the 3rd Gens.
