I debated but i think the monetary value of this vehicle should keep it out, plus it doesnt look hideous like most of the cars in there

At least if Liberace were still alive someone would still be willing to make him a car.




I was actually looking for a "Major League" reference but I failed at google.

It's actually not that bad. Pretty clean look to me. BTW: They look like puddle lights to me.

Looks okay to me. Revise the front bumper and remove the body claddings and you'll have a fine ride.

I'm much too old to know the technicalities between puddle lights and neon lights, but the premise remains the same and I think they're gay.

As for the ride, IMO no car should be modified to look like something it isn't. Cars get flamed every day for that - How many lame ass "Type S" badges have we seen on cars which never even had a Type S? Same holds true with all the ricers throwing a "Turbo" emblem on their ride when it's a 120 HP 4-cylinder with no mods other than the gull wing rear spoiler, oil can muffler and the turbo emblem.

If it's an Escalade - keep it Escalade-like. Feel free to rework the interior, add some dubs, tint the glass, etc...; however, throwing a Phantom front end on it is "WTF" all the way - regardless of how much it costs.

this just shows why "Starbury" is one of the most overpaid players in the NBA
