That's nice for a theme car, but a little too busy for me.

Re: Captain America Themed Thirdgen...

Not my taste, but would look good in a 4th of July parade.
At least it's well executed, and sort of goes with the car, but "subtle" certainly wasn't in the plan.

Re: Captain America Themed Thirdgen...

I wish that along with the car they would show a picture of the people that did the work. Be interesting to slap an eye ball on them.

Re: Captain America Themed Thirdgen...

Looks like they put allot of time and money into it. Not much of what's on or in that car is cheap. They even have a Steel 2in Goodmark or similar hood on it.
Its to bad they were obsessed with Captain America because that could have been one beautiful Third Gen.

If you are telling me that you are not implying racism or discrimination, that simply tells me that you are either immature, ignorant, or lacking self awareness; Therefore you want to point fingers and not take responsibility for your actions or implications.

This is a tech site, and my posts nor your posts are tech related, therefore I will not be replying. Our posts concern a moral and ethical issue. So reply however you would like, just know that depending on if/how you reply, will allow others to see where you stand ethically and morally, entitling them to judge your character.

Re: Captain America Themed Thirdgen...

Myself being curios, I was just wondering what the peps looked like and didn't imply any racism what so ever. Just would like to see who put that much money and work into the car.

Re: Captain America Themed Thirdgen...

I don't even want to think about all the money that was put into that thing. It's depressing seeing so much wasted potential. It wouldn't be so bad with a few changes. The paint job isn't…horrible, so that can stay. rims no larger than 18's please. Keep the interior tasteful, two tone at the most and use a neutral color like black with an accent of blue or red and you'd have a pretty decent ride.
