| Quote: | | Listen its pretty disgusting the things people are saying, everybody has there owns styles, lifted trucks with mud tires, lifted cars with big wheels, lowered cars, racing riding lawnmowers, clothing, hair, etc. To judge a car with such ignorance is disgusting. If you really no what it takes to build a car and your a fan of cars you would respect every custom car for the time, effort and style that,that person came up with even its not your style. Building cars is a hobby for people PEOPLE DONT BUILD CARS TO MAKE ANOTHER PERSON HAPPY they build it to there own style and what they want. |
This was a quote from the linked article made by the owner of the shop that built the car. I agree with him. It rubs me the wrong way when someone hates on someone else's car. For every car that I look at and dismiss out of hand there's a guy somewhere looking at a picture of a track-ready Camaro and doing the same. It's 100% opinion.
<-- The guy with the "unloved" early Z28 GFX and no plans to change it because... it is my favorite.

The shop owner was only doing what he was paid to do, he doesn't have to like it either. I read his quote and I do agree with it, he posted it on his shop's Facebook page because of all the negative comments about the build.
The motor in that car can never see its full potential because of other options the car has. |

Let's be honest Al, most 5thgens never see their potential because of driver incompetencies.

You're dumb. 
But seriously the car is not great. And the internet wastes my time. I'm gonna go out and be active!

The internet is only a waste of time for you because you spend all day inside using it. When you're outside all day, sitting inside drinking and laughing at morons on the internet starts to become much more appealing. 
This is just another tasteless show car. They are dime a dozen. Hell, there are entire companies dedicated to making tasteless overpriced show cars. It's nothing new. |

Nonsense. There are no awards for effort, only results. Unless you work for the government or public school systems. |

Yep, I can get behind that. 9 hours at work sitting behind a desk on a computer makes me want to do physical things in the evening. Just got back from a 25-mile bike ride actually.
