Oh yeah, lemme tell ya.

There's nothing wrong with being impressed by a clean execution like this. Sorry man, but you really are coming off as an elitist douchebag.

I'm gonna agree that that muffler is far from subtle the way it hangs down and pokes out. Maybe more subtle that the 4" tips poking out from under most cars on IA, but its still an eyesore. I bet it sounds like a pickled fart too. :ninja:

We get it. How many different ways can you quantify that you don't like the car and that it is not up to your standards?

fOR THE style that he/she was trying to accomplish (obviously bippu), I think the execution was really spot on, exterior wise. Not sure about the interior. As afar as it being a Kia, so what. There isn't a car made (that any of us own) that hasn't been called "just a _________" by someone. So, if they like, kudos. I like the BIPPU style, so I think it's a nice looking car. Nothing I would do to my dd, but nice nonethe less.

Damn, he is proud it's a Kia too.

Any other person would've debadged that shit.

As many times as someone wants to quote my post.

For the record: I'm not impressed by the KIA. I think the the comments on the first two pages where a bit over the top for the car pictured.

hahaha its still a kia

I think the issue is the muffler is the right size for maybe a Q45 and even on that car the tips come out and swing up some. This post is just more proof on how wheel choice and offset can completely change the car, love the deep blue as well.

I don't really have anything to say. I just wanted to quote your post to keep you going. It's interesting reading. :D

How about WTF? Its a $2,500 car with wheels and exhaust.

Congrats on your new 166 piece Craftsman tool kit. You can now bolt on a bunch of shit from ebay.

Nice find!

lol so since when has that been a crime? If that bothers you that much, than your definatly in the wrong place.

lol im willing to bet money that that muffler makes less noise than yours... :goodjob: Subtle exhaust is not what you go for with a car that style.

its amazing when people like to downplay a nicely put together car, just because of who made it.

And for the de-badging remarks.... you dont de-badge a vip styled car, if anything badges are added.

Never said it was a crime. I said that the comments on page one and two were bullshit and if people really thought that that car was amazing, this place was going to hell. Your comment of me being in the wrong place only supports my claim.

BTW, definatly is defiantly spelled wrong.

based on your comment about a 2500$ car being modded, than you might be in the wrong place. most cars on the site were about 2500$ when they got them. If they think the car is amazing..whats the issue? i think the car is pretty amazing..ive never seen a optima modified like that. And it amazes me..the creativity of people..with an open mind...so that makes is amazing!

Its a Kia - why bother?

"Dressing up" a shitty car hardly makes it any more desirable.

What a waste. Thats like a chic with a bunch of makeup to make herself look good.

ugly.

Ken (Sirius R) whats up man? long time no see.. hahah, I see you are dropping some knowledge on some...

FYI SIRIUS R is one old school show car builder had one of the nicest Galants back in the day with one of the baddest stereo in the Southeast back then..
And is a big wig at SIRIUS satellite radio..

Just incase some of you thought you were talking to a chump.

So if this car had a $5000 sound system and Sirius radio he'd probably like it? :lmao:

$5000? I think it would take more then a 5k System to impress Sirius R . Shit, With his old system , you could probably by 3 new Kia's..

Me knowing Ken.. Dude is a perfectionist (sc) Even if it had Sirius in this Kia picture in this thread, Im sure he would still think the same.

Hell yes! I freakin love it......lolol

I've never understood the sound system thing myself. Good headunit, good speakers, an auxilary jack and I'm done. I guess we all have our vices.

i know who he is..lol and just because of his background doesnt mean his opinion is worth anymore than anybody elses. And i remember the galant, and im sure a galant with 10k+ worth of audio in it is just as pointless to some as this kia is to you. I mean you say its "knowledge", i will say its a opinion, dude hasnt said anything we didnt know already..

Probably so because I have a dual pattern cam an exhaust leak between the manifold and downpipe, my muffler is about 90% rusted out, and I have coat hangers holding up my exhaust. :goodjob:

This whole thread is nothing more than opinion. To many, any import is just a P.O.S. car with stuff done to it. To some fans of imports, Any American car is just a P.O.S. with stuff done to it. To some people, exotic cars are just...expensive cars that any prick with money can buy.
