exactly. i just hate the bumper. ill take your word hes dropped alot of money in the motor and made it his baby.


being a person that really doesn't like a lot of Hyundai designs (i won't point them out), and just about all new car designs, and just about every bodykit out there, i for one believe that you have been misunderstood. i will say i don't like the look of something because it shouldn't be concealed. let's be real here, bodykits are not everyone's cup of tea regardless if the car is immaculate. the RM500's are incredibly modified, but it doesn't mean i am in love with how it looks.



it's one thing to say something looks a certain way, it's entirely another thing to say something doesn't move--two completely different things--one is art, the other is engineering. i thought this contest is about art, not engineering?

^ I think what pissed people off is how he called it a Mexican ride and bringing race into the equation. Had he just stated he didnt like the way the car looks instead of calling it Mexican, no one would be up in arms about it.

i agree. risky word choice that led to swampy territory! it's easy to say rice without thinking of the origins of the word, which is why although it is generally accepted it shares almost equal disadvantages. those words don't really hold their true meanings.

And of those two, one is turbogenesis himself, and the other is someone who didn't read the thread before voting and didn't realize there's a "delete my vote" button.
