Best Show Car out there

ok everyone, i wanna know, in your opinion, the best SHOW car or truck out there. Im not talking about best track times or best driving cars.Im talkin about the best car to buy and turn into an all around show car inlcuding exterior interior and in-car entertainment.

personally, i love to see a s-10 extreme bagged and shaved with a sweet setup in the bed

whats your favorite show car?

Re: Best Show Car out there

i guess any exotic or nice looking car
supra, viper, vette, z, nsx, vette, muscle cars, ferraris ect.

i hate suvs and especially the idiots who put rims on them and 5000 dollars worth of usless speakers and tvs. they are so gay. i dispise the escalade because everyone who buys one puts 24s on them, why put 24s on an off road vehicle, thats defeats the purpose. suvs that are not used for offroading are for wannabes, soccer moms, and spoiled teenagers with rich mommies and daddies.

Why the hell would you make any of those cars into a show car? All the above cars mentioned are made to go fast, not show!

I think its more pracitcal to put big rims and speakers/tvs on a big SUV than in a car.

Umm, no. Escalades are not off-road vehicles, they are a full size luxury SUV. an off-road SUV would be a Nissan Xterra/Pathfinder, etc. Get your facts straight before you post.

Re: Best Show Car out there

suvs were all supposed to be offroad a luxury suv is just stupid. a suvb that doesnt go offroad is no diffrent than a minivan.

its not practical to put oversize rims on any car and an expensive stereo system is just stupid anyways and a waste of money. a nice system with a couple 10s or 12s is allright but when you oveerdue it its just dumb.

what kind of car do you make into a show car anyways. a car can be fast and a showcar but if its ugly it will never make a good show car. any good looking car has potential as a show car. its totally opinion though.

Of course its not practical, its not suppose to be practical, its all about showcaseing one persons or one install shop's skill and talent and creativity. being able to hook up 7 or 8+ tv's in a car takes alot of creativity to find room, and new places to put all of it. A ferrari is not a show car, its an exotic race car, its still beautiful but in a much different way then an escalade that has barely nothing stock becuase its been modded so much. that takes more to put together then your giving credit for.

ps. did you actually think an escalade was created for offroading??

And with some cars, unless you have clutch, discs, and a flywheel made out of Atomantium a sequntial or automatic transmission may be better in the long run.

Re: Best Show Car out there

im sayin suvs in general were designed for offroading and the escalade has deveated from that purpose and became no more than a souped up minivan.

Not all SUV's are designed for off-roading. The Escalades/Navigators are designed for comfort and luxury and hauling people around, hence the 3 rows of seating. You dont see big 38" dirt tires on Esc's/Nav's now do you? Now if you want an off-road SUV, your best bet is a Nissan Xterra/Pathfinder, Ford Bronco, etc.

Just let it go already, this thread's getting pointless.
