I don’t see the point of this stuff. Why have a fast car if it’s not hot? I wouldn’t want to drive that POS no matter what motor was under the hood. ---

> [@newman](#): > > disagree. I just don’t see this as appealing or useful for anything but winning burnout contests and giving Frankenstein-mechanics a boner. Now that I think about it, your little e30 project fits right in with this paradigm, but with a bit more polish. I guess as a hobbyists pursuit there is some value to piecing together strange/surprising combination. ---

The E30 should drive pretty hard though… It’s all there. ---

im surprised by all the hate over this truck. and those saying it looks like a piece of shit, i bet the underside of that is nicer then alot of cars out on the road that you would consider to be “hot”. you can tell looking at the firewall, underside is probably that lime green and all brand new. ---

I’m really in love with the rat rod look but it’s about to hit full blown popularity. ---
