Atleast they dident use all APC stuff. They made a few cool cars in PMR.
The Beatles outside was kinda cool, and it was cool that they put a new motor in it, which was kinda neat. Also that Hydrojet or whatever that lil van was, that was kinda cool. |

if i get pinked, cest la vei im not glad a forum member won. for numerous reasons. im not sure if i believe some of the sob stories ive seen on that show, but the kid who got a new xb sure deserved it. i feel like you took advantage. maybe you dont have the cash to mod it yourself or build it how you wanted. maybe im totally wrong... it also means even less to me that someone else had to build your car for you. kinda like cheating. i might feel bad if youre really really poor, then again if youre really really poor you shouldnt be online or spending cash on car shit. let alone a computer to look at zilvia |

i somewhat agree at what u guys are saying, since the kid already had his own body kit, seat, steering wheel in the car before they choose it, i think there are more unfortunite 240s out there... but to each his own... I'll just wait for the episode to come out.
A nother idea, would be to sell the car after its pimped, I bet people would buy it for alot being it was on tv.. then get another s13 and do what u really want.

I wouldent let those guys touch my car, thats for sure.
but thats weird, I always thought they pimp less fortunate peoples rides......but that overhaulin show comes to mind when they over haul lance arm strongs beater, so I guess they are trying something different now days by pimping fortunate peoples rides. tell you the truth I rather see less fortunate people get chosen.

to be honest i do agree that i like it when they pimp junkers for the people with some big issues and just no money. The vw bus was done awesome and id own that thing and love it. wcc does alot of stupid cheesy ricey crappy things on there, but there is alot of creativity and its usually not done half assed so I can appreciate a job well done even if the car looks like "nuclear anus". i always wanted them to pimp my car, id love every inch of it because it would be on ebay the next week and id be illegally importing a skyline in from canada with the cash and bondo stamping a 240 coupe vin on :-) calling it a day lol. their goals on wcc can make them look bad though. remmeber the guy bitching about it not having a good transmission and a having weak motor? what did they do they filled the car with heavy wheels, battery draining stuff and extra batteries and not so much as an intake filter. if i wasnt gonna touch the motor i wouldnt have put in the part with the kid talkin about it barely getting out of its own way. what about the kid who needed his truck to carry parts in the back for work? they filled the bed with bondo and video games hows he gonna put parts in there now?

Damnit! This post should exist AFTER the show airs, not BEFORE. Now instead of being ridiculed, it becomes anticipated. Which means, instead of people missing it, and making fun of it, everyone will now give more power to MTV by watching it.
Thanks for keeping this POS show alive! ![]()

I think pimp my ride is an awesome show. I watch it because i enjoy the craftsmanship put into the cars. Even if the end result isnt what you like, you gotta admit those guys are creative and they do really good work. I dream of owning a shop like that one day(after i own a performance shop of course)

If that was me, I would turn around and sell the car on ebay for 20 or 30k, just like that one guy did. Someone will buy it, no doubt. (or if I really really liked it, i'd keep it, at least for a little while)

k; we're gonna pimp this ride out and give it some bling...
"we're gonna use giovanni wheels on this hoe"... god could they get any cheaper? that show is an insult... its funny watching the guys at the end freaking out... if they did that to my car, i'd be freaking out too; but i'd have my 45 in my left hand and a sawed-off 10gauge in the other... and about 10 sec later the world would have about 5-10 less toolboxes to deal with...

I'm surprised they don't slap some 18" Giovanna chrome wheels on the 240 like they do with everything else.

so....i dont get it, i wouldnt apply to win either way..Having some guys "pimp my ride" would make me feel like i cant build my own car. fom what i get MTV picks the stuff that goes on the car?
i personally wouldnt want some white guy who wears FuBu and talks with a ghetto accent to paint my car... I wonder if they will put somthing stupid in this one...Kinda like the Fire place? I wouldnt want tv's and subs and shit like that, weight, weight weight. is this BrokeAss240 kid a show car kinda person? Lime green? Aluminum wang? Neons? sounds like TF&F strikes again |

that blue that they put on the legend was pretty cool...as was the green on the vw bus. people need to lighten up. everyone isn't as serious about this car thing as some of you are. the show is no reason to get your panties in a bunch.

Seriously, yes it sucks that they are going to (probably) rice out a S13, but if that's what the kid wants, more power to him. |

the show doesn't get retarded until they're at that table, then you hear good 'ol "magic mike" blurt out his utter fucking stupidity just one more time. well Q, i was looking at this 240 and have figured out what its missing...so we're gonna hook james and his ride up with a portable table for russian roulette and we're gonna PUT A MOTHERFUCKING FIREPLACE IN HIS ENGINE. god i hate that stupid sack of shit. 2shea the painter, kept it og on the vw van, definitely got my respect there.

the making of PMR shows them at the table and they're like, "this is the hardest part...we dont actually go through this...and usually we would NEVER do the thigns we do on the show to a customers car"

i grew up in the ghetto... I dont use ebonics.
And i wasnt talking down on him if he is a show car kinda guy, its a general question to better understand if he wants it to have tv's and subs. Calm down little guy but what do i know, ive only been doing this for 7 years |
