I honestly can't understand why people would spend money on those. I'd rather have my car on bricks than on wheels like that.

It's a LS CL. looks like he has done a duel exhaust much the same as I have and obviosly a body kit which I think looks good in colorado red. He's put on chrome door handles to match the 19" rims and lowered it. I'm not too enthusiastic about the chome wheels either. However the car does stand out.

I dont quite fathom the appeal of up-ending an Autobarn catalogue onto one's car in the name of improving it.

I see it all the time, people just attach as mush shiny crap to their car as they can get their hands on.
The best cosmetic mods, IMO, are the subtle well thought out ones that improve on the original presentation of the car as a whole.

I think (and have done for quite some time) that Melbzetec's LR is a stellar example of this.

Your car beats this without a doubt in every single area. Everything on your car works together and it all suits.

Whats the point to this Daz? are you seeking the owner or just posting a pic of someones car so people can bag it out....as they are doing.
Each to their own but not everyone has the same taste.
No I have no idea who owns it.

3..2..........

Glad you asked this mate .. I just un-ignored you so i could read your post !!
I originally posted this picture because i thought it was an awsome looking car.. and i hadn't seen it on here before?
The Numberplates were very unique ?!
People want to bag out peoples cars as you say , that has nothing to do with me..
People starting crap like yourself to get a response does however get the attention it deserves.. Im sure this thread will be locked now thanks to your constructive journalism and i will simply ignore you again as you seem to have nothing i have read so far that contributes to this Forum in any helpful way at all !!

Good night and sleep tight ..xxx.. Daz.
