You asked so...

the photography isn't bad. The car, on the other hand, is awful. I'd hold that up as a prime example of how someone spent a grip of money and absolutely ruined a car. Not my cup of tea at all.

Yakuza members really know how to ride in style. I love the pics. I give the owner lots of credit for keeping the Yakuza style to the T.

Good thing I'm going to school to Not become a photographer.

And you're entitled to your opinion but its actually pretty conservative and one of the best examples of a bippu styled car here in the states.

Then I'd hate to see one that is a bad example.

The VIP scene is pretty big in Hawaii. The first car will seem pretty tame compared to these next two...

This girl's IS is pretty extreme. Huge body kit and very very agressive stance.






Same goes for this aristo that includes swapping out Q45 headlights.




Or maybe since you're a honda guy, how about a VIP tsx?






Now that thing is a money pit. Genuine mugen everything. Its show and go.

Thanks! And the Y34 platform is pretty rarely done up here because it wasn't a huge seller. But they do look much better all Bippu'd out.

Not to be mean, but this looks like a 4 door scion TC

[bling]

Have to give credit to the photographic skills and the attention to detail of how the car is being done...

However, the VIP style is just not my cup of tea, just way overkill...given the fact that I am living in Tokyo.

i can live with the body kit and even the wheels... but I loathe that "slammed" look that tucks wheels up into the fenders. The car would look so much better at a normal dropped height.

The interior... ummm... no comment. Its bordering on riced out... I mean i get the VIP thing... but still.



That being said... very nice photos!!!

I don't get it, would somebody explain what "VIP" and "hippu'd" or whatever means?
