Now I'm in a 92 Firebird.

 

Unfortunatly I had to sell a 69 Dodge Coronet when I moved down to AZ. Basically built up as a Super Bee clone minus the 6 pack :cries:

 

Heres what it looked like except mine was lime green.

I don't have any pictures, but I drive a 2000 Saturn SL2. It's Silver. (Its awsome with the rising gas prices)

 

I once saw a VW Bettle made to look like Picachoo(sp). It had wings and everything, just driving around town.

 

I remember when Batman, the first one by Tim Burton, came out. They had a contest to win the Batmobile..... I've always wondered if someone was driving around in THE BATMOBILE. That would be a sight.mecha_cow10.gif

I have a 2003 Honda Accord ES. I wish I could say that it was my first new car, but it is the first car that I owned that was less than 3 years old. And it will be paid off next month :bounce1:

I'm actually supposed to inherit my dad's dent-mobile of a red '87 Ford Ranger.

i drive a 2000 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 V6.

 

its been modified a bit with a cold-air kit (with a K&N filter), a replacement Flowmaster muffler, Bilstein shocks, and a couple of my own additions from my off-road excurisions in the form of dings and dents. and i love beating out those stupid Civics at the stoplights that only have a little fart-cannon on the back. :D

 

my Dad gave it to me last year when i started commuting to college, and he gave me the title to it for my birthday back in June.

 

i'd give you a pic, but i don't have a camera on hand....

MDK, it appears you have the makings of a fine pimp mobile, so uh, GET IT PIMPED OUT MAN!!!

 

I have a 1998 Dodge Neon Sport Four door with a four cylinder engine not worth discussion:D it takes forever to over 100 but has the best handling of anything I've ever driven, I'd recommend it if you've got to get a car under $5000, but if you want to get a neon with a little more moneys worth I'd go with one of those ones that has the Viper engine :drool1:

I know! I have always said that the guys at West Coast Customs would love to get hold of this car for Pimp My Ride, but I am on the opposite coast and I don't meet the age requirements for consideration for the show. However, I wouldn't want some of what they put on the cars in my vehicle (such as 20" chrome rims). I have done some work on my car since that photo was taken. That pic is almost 10 years old. The most notable difference is the front seats. I replaced the stock buckets with custom upholstered 2-tone red & white classic Recaro racing seats with the GP logo embroidered on both sides of each headrest. I have a Pontiac 400ci engine (thats 6.6 litre to all you import fans out there ;)) that I plan on rebuilding to replace my stock 301ci engine. The car really needs to be repainted and equiped with duel exhaust and a shift kit for the Turbo 400 Pontiac transmission. Hopefully, one of these days, I will be able to replace the entire suspension and install a posi rearend. Can you tell I like muscle cars? I want this Grand Prix to be able to spank a Mustang at the red light (just because they are overrated).

You should get Overhauled!!! They do much better work than WCC. Plus, they actually work on the engine. I don't think West Coast Customs does anything to the engine unless the car dosn't run, unless you count bubbles comming from the tail pipe.

 

I love Pimp My Ride, but THE FOOSE is classic. He could make your car, or any car really, the best car in town. Foose's worst work beats the best work WCC does. Maybe thats just me.

 

Pimp My Ride= fun, but superficial

THE FOOSE = Classic, total overhaul!

@MDK- nice choice of engines. most people i know would have just gone for a 350 or a 502 out of a crate, but a rebuilt 400, that's a nice pick. hey, good luck with the build, man. :D

I thoroughly agree! Foose it great! He is about the only person I would allow to replace my classic Pontiac Rally II wheels with chrome rims. His designs are tasteful and not too over-the-top. The only problem is that you have to have a really good friend or loved one fill out an application without your prior knowledge. Maybe someone has done that for me, but I certainly don't know about it. :wishing:

 

Speaking of Pimp My Ride, they do work on the engines too, they just don't highlight that part of the build very often. On one episode, Xzibit (sp?) said that a lot of people ask "what do you do to the motor?" so he made a point to pop the hood. Pretty sweet!
