ALL SHOW OR ALL GO??????

[Turbodude06]

Ok If you had to choose one or the other which would you choose, all show or all go. I mean my car has a little bit of both, I like having a nice car but I also love blowing the doors off of other people too. But if I had to choose I think I would go for all show just cause I like when people are looking at my car, it just makes me feel good I guess, thats probably why I never went for the sleeper look. whats your choice??????????????-

[PSINXS]

what makes me feel good is when ppl go home crying when they get beat by my POS 240. ahh feels so good. all go, all the time.

[Georgia_boy]

all go or all show, such an age old question.

I think I agree w/ psinxs
just makes you feel like a billy bad ass
when it happens, but when it dosent
what can you say then??

[blacknightteg]

eh in my opinion a lil bit a both, make your car look clean but not CRAZY and then blow everyones doors off

[AE86 Dorifto]

All go.... What's the point in have a car that looks fast but is not? I know some kid with a 96 civic coupe. It has a full body kit, carbon fiber hood, aluminum spoiler, a new intake cone, and a catback exhaust. The thing sounds like a beast. You know how much power it has? 94 and it's automatic. What's the point in that? I like old normal looking cars that can beat Diablos anyday of the month. (A good example is this 80's Toyota Tercel stationwagon with a 4-rotor doing 8 second quartermiles at the drag strip. You people have probably seen/heard of it before.)

[wantboost]

all go-10 all show-0 on IA thats surprising

[B16a2 Civic]

cant answer it,
thats why i have a b16 civic with bolt ons and with show mods.

[bigdare23]

All Go!!!

[BABY J]

hmmm

[BluesClues]

I like both. I want my car to look good, but be fast at the same time. I hate getting punked out by people on the highway just because I have mods. NEWS FLASH: My car is still slow. Just wait til' I get that b18

[Mdeezy]

Everyone want to have a nice looking car, everyone wants to have a scary fast car.

Happiest medium is in the middle. Keep the ride clean with some cosmetics here and there, then all some bolt ons.

[BABY J]

Yeah, but the thread asks people to make the choice between the 2. :)

all go-10 all show-0 on IA thats surprising



Is a new breed of IAers. IA is no longer just a car show site =]
Gotta luv it though.

Already did the car show thing.
Now is all about having a fun car to drive with some powa !! :D

[Red]

If I had to chose it'd be All GO! But I do like a little mix of both.

[Julio]

Honestly, your car is one of the best and also prime example of how a car should be built. Show and Go.. great mix. :goodjob:

[TheSnail]

All go. I havent washed any of my cars in two years.

[NinjaHobo]

mos def all go. who cares wtf your car looks like if your roasting ppl.

[Sticky]

of coarse all go..... it feels good when you own someone else on the rd

[Kalifornia087]

All Go If i had to choose between the two. But i like to look nice also.

-Austin

[HyPer50]

if i had to choose one or the other, definatly all go. i like to have atleast a decent looking platform tho, but ya, I'd rather drive a 11sec rustbucket than a show winning accord.

[japan4racing]

everyone likes to have something nice. but you dont need fiberglass melted space ship looking shit all over your car. all you need is good paint and a set of wheels. my belief has always been: if you dont like the way a car looks when you you buy it...why buy it? i liked the civic. i bought one. if i put all these different bumpers and retarded wings on it, its not a civic anymore.

all go no doubt. if you dont like the way my cars looks thats fine..you can look at the back of it while im leaving your ass. paint dont make you faster, bodykits dont make you no faster, and that wing damn sure dont make you no faster.

[YokotaS13]

all go

[AnthonyF]

I can't vote b/c there was no both. I care about a car looking good and going fast. No need to spend money on body kits and shit. But they should take the time to make the car look smooth with no dents and a nice decent paintjob. But of course, my daily driver is my race car. So I like it to look good. If I had a pos, then i'd make it fast as shit. IMO.

[BTEC]

all show or all go?
what is show?
ne questions.
DAMN, that was gay. :gay:

[dereksi]

yes,yes it was. Lol

[Fuster_Cluck]

EG gutted & dropped on OEM (blades & LS mesh) wheels, soon to be K20 powered. I like show! Showing someone I can leave there 40k sports car wayyyyy behind in a civic :goodjob:

[BTEC]

yes,yes it was. Lol
ur jsut mad bc my car aint as slow as urs.

[dereksi]

ur jsut mad bc my car aint as slow as urs.
J ur just mad to be mad. lol

[BTEC]

J ur just mad to be mad. lol
and ur point is what? :D

[dereksi]

no point. lol

[BABY J]

no point. lol

HMM... lol

[Turbodude06]

ok well I guess everyone just likes to blow the doors off of other people so far theirs only been 4 for all show and 40 for all go. damn don't any of you people like when others just stare at your car, but your right it is fun to piss people off too and make them go cry home to thier mommys. I figured this was going to be a more even number of people, so far I was way wrong. lol ...........

[NinjaHobo]

I don't think ur completely wrong. I think people like to drive a high speeds more than they like to look at cars. High speed driving is fun.

[devin]

all go

[Cool Cat GTR]

ok well I guess everyone just likes to blow the doors off of other people so far theirs only been 4 for all show and 40 for all go. damn don't any of you people like when others just stare at your car, but your right it is fun to piss people off too and make them go cry home to thier mommys.

There is no reason why you can't have a very nice looking car with minimal "show" mods that hauls ass. I personally build my cars to my taste and I don't care what anybody else thinks. Performance is mandatory.

The reason the score is 40 to 4 in favor of go is hysterical and I'm laughing my ass off. This site is predominately Honda drivers and Hondas by nature are ugly little cars so show is out of the question. Then these Honda drivers vote for go but 99 percent of them are ricers with fart cannons that wouldn't pull a greasy string out of a chickens ass. Honda = Slow/Ugly. Sorry but the facts don't lie.

[Mr_Mischif]

my belief has always been: if you dont like the way a car looks when you you buy it...why buy it?

b/c it's fast as fuck!!!

[SLow_POke]

if had to choose b4 and it was always all go my 4 door looking llike crap made me some money though, engine bay dirty on purpose of course;)

[bdydrpdmazda]

if your all go it wont look so bad if you get beat, when cars with rediculous body kits get beat its funnier cause those are the guys who think they are the shizzle.

[an0therh22]

id say all go and just get some jdm knick knacks here and there

[secondgencamaro]

Go before show, but no need to drive an ugly ass car. Paint doesn't costs that much. I understand driving a project car though. My CRX has got an unpainted bumper fender and is in very mucy need of some good body work. Then again, it only has a mini-me without VTEC wired so it doesn't exactly fall into the 'go' category either, lol.

[typerek]

easy my ls/vtec hatch after it got stripped was UGLY!!!! when i went to the street races in ct they would tell me to get off the line but i would go anyways i smoked an h22 accord, b16 hatch, single vtec hatch with juice, gsr coupe. nobody wanted none of my hatch but they still talked shit cause it was ugly. paint was faded and had a stock muffler.400 dollars later i was the one laughing though!hahahahahahahahahaha

[typerek]

oh yeah i did bark 4th in that car!!!

[typerek]

another thing is an ugly car is less likely to get stolen. unless your one of those retards who pops vtec near your house or brags and pops your hood for anyone who asks.

[an0therh22]

hahha yea i think croooks are all the all show guys there just after some rims or ur kit i don think they gunna mess with u if ur car looks like shiet like mine been sitting at the apartment for 5 months never move one bit primered no alarm or anything i guess they never noctice my evo2 catback

[B16a2 Civic]

yeahh.....show cars are gttin stolen so they can have the body kits LIRL

[B16a2 Civic]

go cars are gettin stolen for motor parts, harder to locate and you cant just say " hey, it sounds liek you have my motor in ya car, pop your hood" where as if someone stole ya rims or bodykit, you can accuse them right away, its more visible then motor parts

[an0therh22]

well i mean if u wasnt redlining in the neighborhood or doin mad burnouts then nobody would know u got something under the hood but they can just loook at a riced out car and say oh shiet it look so pretty lets steal it tonight

[Reaper]

I love to go fast, but Id rather have a better looking car first..then worry about how fast the car is

[StupidBikerBoy]

deffinately all go

[admedlin]

Who cares how your car looks? I mean if you pull up at a stop light and some dude in a sexy supra revs at your ugly, rusted 240sx with an RB26 and lots of work, think about the surprise on his face when you rape him. Thats how I see it if I HAD to choose between the two. But thats not the case :)

[StupidBikerBoy]

lol

Theres deffinately a limit to the ugly part though for me!

Luckily, I don't have to pick between the 2 either.

[Turbodude06]

Thats true about the show cars getting stolen no one ever steals the shity ass looking cars.

[VTECin5th]

LOL ^^^

[Outphase]

ALL SUSPENSION!!!!

[Ran]

All Go, No Show

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v92/Nismosis/Miata/Datsun/Z4.jpg

[babowc]

definitely all go, but you HAVE to have some cleanliness to the car..
i wouldnt care if the car hung with ferraris if it were a rustbucket thats just waiting to fall apart.

all go on a CLEAN stock body FTMFW!

[atl530i]

What the hell is the point of all show? To look like a retard? I mean it brings back ideas from the late 70's. Cars with 350 V8s and 155HP but they have more decals then a race car?

All go fo sho!

[R_Rated]

all show = teh ricer

[R_Rated]

definitely all go, but you HAVE to have some cleanliness to the car..

I hearby dub thee, the Millenium Falcon!

[N/A EK]

Voted-
All go!

[VTECin5th]

All GO

[souldigger]

All go here. My go is the show ;).

-Jason

[SloWRX]

Definently ALL GO!

[g-ridda]

i vote all show!my slow ass car looking fast is my reason not to race that ugly honda.i jus make it seem like its a waste of my time its all mind games:goodjob:

[Bballjamal]

I always thought if someone thought a body kit made a car look fast..........they needed help....

I like both, but if I had the money, and had to choose, all go would win it!

[R_Rated]

i vote all show!my slow ass car looking fast is my reason not to race that ugly honda.i jus make it seem like its a waste of my time its all mind games:goodjob:

boo! if you want some thing to sit on and look good.... redo your living room.

+1 though for knowing that a show car does not make you fast.

[soplocar]

i like a little bit of both, make it look clean, the era of the body kits and spoilers is gone, trow some of your money in a nice lip, a good suspension set up, a nice paint job, and spend the rest of your savings in the engine bay. make it all go but keep the car clean.

[worldchamp]

little of both! if you have the money why not.....:taun:

[CivicHB93JDM]

I like a little of both. But I see that most on here are all about power.

[Turbodude06]

damn this thread is still going I think everyone on IA has posted on this KEEP IT COMING PEOPLE

[Allstar3.8T]

If you are "All show" and you wanna win, you still must have alot of go. Look at Red, Tim W, Marsh, even Jeff G, you gotta do the engine to win consistently. A shiny stock motor is OK, but you need boost, juice, or a swap to win even locally now.
You can be "All go" and get away w/ a thrashed car, but it better be FAST. The difference is simply proof of power in a show winner (which some still have in Dyno sheets and time slips ....Props to Red again) and the All go has an excuse why his car is beat up, even though alot of fast cars look good. The ISP integra is so cool lookin as an example.
Neither is easy nor cheap to build, in the all show, you see where its goin, in the all go, its internals and such. Neither is easy, both deserve respect.
Thats my $.02

[AlliRae]

all go.... end of story

[Turbodude06]

over 6 months now, and its still at the top. SWEEEEEEET.... Keep the votes coming

[Turbodude06]

i vote all show!my slow ass car looking fast is my reason not to race that ugly honda.i jus make it seem like its a waste of my time its all mind games:goodjob:

I like his ^^^ theory to the all SHOW :goodjob: everyone else knows the all GO theory...

[BluesClues]

So I kept my word about my car not only beeing show, but go too. I bought myself a jdm gsr clip. Hopefully I will have it in soon

[Z33_kid]

ALL daily driven lol all go soon i need a swap and boost lmao

[JstAneon]

All go. <3 sleepers

[ct9a gsr]

I'm all about the show and go. I think its awesome taking a slow piece of shit like a Lancer Ralliart and making it be able to beat stock Evo's from a roll. My bodykit is so well fabricated that people swear I drive an Evo until I do some crazy FWD burnouts and drifts.

/boredom

[atl gts-t]

y not just make your all go clean...id rather look at a clean{well mantained,no wires flopen everywhere,good paint,and quality upgrades..no autozone special}fast car than a fiberglassed up thumpin rollen vidio audio store of a car...but thats just me

[Turbodude06]

I need some reps for this thread. LOL....

[Verik]

wow this is back from the dead... wth lol.

lol @ verik

[Sol-Badguy]

Wow.

Brought it back just to try to get reps..

[_Christian_]

all go. most ppl who have a true passion for cars agree. i like a clean fast car. all show is rice. it's just a little fad. let's see how many aftermarket things i can put on my ride to make it dope yo.:rolleyes: i rarely see a show car that isn' rice unless it is a super expensive car and then usually it has the go to back it up. i just crack up when i see rice boys with their "show cars".

[oasis0124]

depends.. if you like showing off your car to the guys then all-go. but if u want to impress the ladies, all-show
