    Question ALL SHOW OR ALL GO??????

    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??????????????-

    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.)

    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

    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.

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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
