Default Pimp My Ride: 1989 Mustang lx Convertible

Hey I just caught an episode of pimp my ride that about made me grit my teeth. We all know the cheezy tv show Pimp My Ride, where music sensation Xzibit and G.A.S put some shiny rims and flashy paint on crappy cars right? Well this episode featured a White 89 Mustang lx Convertible; owning a 89 mustang lx convertible myself I really hated see'n that beautiful fox being "pimped". They put a gold convertible top on it, a stupid paint job along with lace accents, and bubbles out of the rear bumper! what!? yes, bubbles out of the rear bumper.

What do you guys think of this? Does anyone find this as rediculously stupid as me?

Every car that comes out of there is ridiculous. Overwhelmingly tacky, which isnt a strong enough word to describe it. Ive seen them take a Ford Escort and put a BMW body kit on it.

I've seen a movie PROJECTOR be installed in the trunk along with a flip up trunk lid, and a popcorn popper in the back seat.

If they ever make one that has a stripper & a brass pole pop out of the trunk, then I'll give them some credit!

That's actually not too terrible of an idea, I take my laptop out to the car when I'm doing something that I need to follow the instructions that someone has posted. Would be easier than having to roll the creeper back out from underneath to scroll down the screen.

it sounds like a bunch of ghetto wannabe mechanics thought they could make a fox body look better and be unique. But there is one thing that bothers me.... who would drive such a abomination and still have dignity left.

yeah have you guys seen the idiots who work on the cars? they have like mowarks and goofy hair cuts and say stupid things like they know what there talking about.

Oh yeah and on top of the stupid ridiculous things they do to these cars they do absolutly nothing to the engine/drivetrain. They just polish a terd.

Altough one episode I saw they "rebuilt" an engine, and they considered rebuilding it an oil change and a chrome valve cover.. hahahahah
