Has anyone seen that gawd awful show "Unique Whips" on Speed about Unique Auto Sports owned by Will Castro???
Man, nothing like slapping together some cheap ass stereo boxes. Then throwing in as many TV's as you can. Put on the biggest, shiniest spinner wheels you can find. All for big name sports/music stars whou wouldn't know what good taste is if you showed it to them.
Never fails to amaze me... money does not = good taste

Serg - I'm guilty of watching that show once or twice...with all the reality shows on TV today, it doesn't surprise me to see Unique Whips on the Speed Channel. Nothing like watching a bunch of Babies working and constantly fighting with each other...Not the kinda place I'd want to bring my car... Unless I wanted to ruin a brand new Bentley then again I could always call "Pimp My Ride"

I just dont watch TV. I have started to call it the Shit-box. Nothing but crap comes outta that thing! Im tired of all those "reality shows". I totally agree with Serg about the Good Taste thing. If i had as much money as one of those VIPs, i would have a HUUUUUUUUUUUGE Brick-walled Garage with nothing but American Muscle Cars, and ANYYY Pre-1988 through early1900s European Cars!

The guys at "Pimp My Ride" do a MUCH better job than "Uniqe Whips"...
I actually like watching "Pimp My Ride" as the come up with some off the wall original ideas.
I just shrug when I see people who never had a dime in their life (and more importantly have ZERO money management skills) make it big and start buying the blingiest crap you can think of... sad really. Good taste is hard to come by , it seems.
No one gets a "financial education" when they are growing up, unless their parents teach them good fiscal skills.

how front and rear lamborgini doors, they open like up like lambo doors but they open like suicide doors where they face each other when they open? I wonder if that'd be ok to take off-roading.
Isn't that a picture of the RR Sport concept before they went 4 door? Or is it the Stormer? Hmmm, I also wonder if that is a BMW or Ford design? Either way I'm glad they went back to the drawing board for the RR Sport - It looks very nice! I just got the April issue of Land Rover Magazine and they had a 31 page mini mag ALL about the RR Sport. Can't wait to read all about it. Maybe I'll be able to get one in about....hmmm 8-10 years.

Land Rover cars with gull wing doors,,, where are we going as a humanity? We still can't buy an American market Defender but we'll soon have a Rover sedan that will probably share the same production platform as a Contour. I share everyone's enthusiasm for "all things Rover" but am I the only one who thinks LRs moving in the wrong direction,,,or, at least, that there's still room for true off-road vehicles in Rovers line-up? Or am I just out of touch?
