Here, this is a car i consider clean...

No need for stupid **** all over the windows or wheels that blind when reflecting light. And my tail lights are true "Euro style" because they were actually made in Europe..

Im not trying to be high and mighty or anything, and Im not trying to say 'oooh ooh my car is better!' because im not like that. The guy wanted comments and I gave them, now I'm being chastised for being honest.

Sweet ride. My fathers friend has a 951 porche, all white.

What person in the right mind doesn't like Porshe. It screams adventurous and wealth all in one.

About the car shows, your 951 and his pro would be in 2 totally different classes. (I meant your pro v his pro.) PPL would crowd your 951 for all performance and PPL would crowd his car for looks. Knowing me, if I was at a show with both cars, yours and his would be in stored in my camera.

But seriously other that GT, who would throw decals and a high spoiler on a porche . These 2 cars are beautiful, but in there own class.

well, here's my modded jap-box, since it would be in the same class as his protege. The only performance mod is a 98' h22a engine swap, completely stock.

He wanted comments or criticism about his car not his way of being or thinking. The name of the game at car shows is DIFFERENT and in that is expensive unecessary stuff. For example: how many TV screens you can fit in a car? Why would you put a screen in the trunk lid? If you do then why not put it in the engine bay? Why put them in the headrests of the last row of seats? So the cargo or the car behind you can watch TV?

My 2 cents

ok...I have been reading this thread for a couple of days now, and i believe it is time for me to say something to iibbmm. Look man, he asked for comments not for YOU to bash his car every 2 seconds you get. ok we all get the point! you hate his car you think it is silly you think it is stupid you think it is ricedout... bla bla bla bla and the list goes on and on. You have made your comment you have given your opinion. I don't see you bashing anyone else. So leave.. how many more times must we read how much you don't like his windows, wheels, and wing??? You say you don't understand why he does what he does to his car, well you know what..I don't understand why there's people running around shooting people for no reason at all... but they do it!!! And i really don't think your so called opinions are going to do any affect on him or change his mind at all about his car. So what is your goal here? Why are you still on this thread? if you want the image out of your head so bad, why do you come back every second of the day? It must not be so bad if you can look at it as much as you do. It must not rub you so much in the wrong way if all you can do is think of nothing but his car and ponder all day on what your next bashing comment is going to be. You say you are still on this thread to see comments from other people about your post, so are you just waiting and hoping someone hates his car just as bad as you do? And really iibbmm, why does his car bother you so much? You have made your comment so get over it. I am going to be 100% honest with you. After looking at your car and looking at his car. I strongly suggest you put your tail between your legs and run. MY OPINION IS... your pro doesn't compare to his car. I rather see something off the wall, creative, an eye catching car than some car that is basicly stock that looks like every other one. A car like his shows Character and creativity and defintly makes it DIFFERENT. And in a car show, His car would defintly get my vote. So come on now, lets face the facts here. You have nothing to gain by bashing his car over and over. So save it, for someone who really cares what you have to say. And before you are going to quote what he has to say about his wing. how about you quote the whole sentence next time. He didn't say that he got the wing JUST BECAUSE he wanted a wing.. his exact words were.
"the wing-- im not crazy bout it either but i wanted a wing, and not one that is on every honda running around town,"
so you see, he didn't want one that every honda has running around town so therefore he got something DIFFERENT! And if he wants to be DIFFERENT i believe that is his buisness not yours! Everyone has their own opinions, everyone has their own interest, just because you don't like something doesn't mean it is RICE! I strongly believe you stand alone on saying his car is ricedout. Sorry if i am a little blunt. But iibbmm, to me, looking in from the outside, it appears to me that you are alittle jealous of his car. And maybe your not, maybe you are. But really why don't you find something better to occupy your time with. Find something productive. Well, as of now I believe that is all I have to say to you.
And bman, I love your car. I thinks it looks great and you did a wonderful job. I would love to see your car riding around my town. And goodluck at your shows. Take home the trophies. You deserve them. it takes hard work and determination to do what you have done and what you will do to your car. keep up the good work.

Yeah. Anytime you go to shows "I want pics. I demand them."
So far I've gotten one 1st place trophy for 'Best Mazda' catagory this past summer. That was my first and only car show so far. I'm exspecting more. To me, your car looks a lot better than mines so I know you'll win a lot. Keep up the good work. BTW, your fiance doesn't mind you putting all this money into your car?

well thank you redrims and mazdaman2.
such kind words.
i refuse to bother with the sarcasm iibbmm, i dont want to play your little reindeer games, im a 25 year old mature person.
i totally respect you and your opinon, and everybody elses.
i didnt post my pics because i thought i had the best lookin pro, and demand that you or any one like it. i am stoked that most of the people that replied liked it. and i dont understand where the porshe crap even came in at, that porshe is by far way better than my car. i dont even think that porshe could keep up with your mouth.and you are crazy if you think my car is ricedout. you may think its ugly fine but come on now.
like you dont understand why i got my wing, i dont understand how seem to thrive on talking so much smack about my car.
im not disrespecting you!
why arent you on a prelude club or porshe club.com
if you really get so much enjoyment out of people replying to you, start your very own thread and stop filling this one up with stubbornness and negativity!i like my car, and maybe one day you wont think its rice any more, maybe it will be tofu. rice is such a overly abused term, what happen to good ole fashion ugly or stupid! FINEYOU THINK MY CAR IS STUPID AND UGLY, YOU WIN CONGRATS TO IIBBM. no one hates my car as much as you HOO-RA!! now let it go.
hey redrims my fiance loves me, so she lets me!
i even got her some of that ugly yellow and black tribal tint for her yellow 99 convertable mustang. and she loves it. plus i just bought her a 4,000 ricedout engagement ring and paid a airplaine a bunch of bucks to fly over the beach where we met and propose to her(that helped)!
and my first show is in a couple of months, i should have some more riced out mods done by then, i will send you and anyone else that wants some via e-mail. i dont want to go through this garbage again!! but thanks again for the compliments and encouragement to those who have been respectful and mature.

I like it. Only thing though, you need bigger wheels. There's nothing wrong with the style of them, just the size. Personally, I like chrome wheels so I give you your props. Other than that, VERY nice.

Sheesh, some of you are incapable of comprehending a damned thing.

The reason I continue to post in this thread is the same reason redrims continues to post. I am replying. I posted my feelings, and when I checked my User page the next time I came, there was a reply. SHould i simply not reply when someone replys to my posts?

Who says Im not on prelude or porsche club sites? I own a protege5, so I post here as well. And my Protege is stock for a reason, I already have my fun cars.

Anyone who drives that car is not a mature adult, sorry!

I don't bash his car every chance I get, I gave my opinion, like he asked us to, and I backed my opinion up when it was called upon. Bottom line, you don't want to hear negative comments, don't ask for honest opinions. It's a shame that not everyone on the planet has the same taste as you, but there is no reason to be a crybaby because of it.

I'm playing no games, I find it ammusing that such simple logic is completely lost upon some of you. All I've done this entire thread is give my single opinion, then have to reiterrate it over and over again when people just don't understand.

If I posted asking for opinions on my cars, and I received negative feedback, I'd take it for what it is, someone else's opinions. I'm certainly not going to run with my tail between my legs though, simply because my protege is stock and his is some funky looking ricebox. Judging from the reactions of the other people I've shown this thread to from other less ricey boards (sorry it's true, this place is pretty bad), I'm not alone in my opinions.

I own 5 cars currently to whomever asked, and thanks for the good comments about the prelude and the 951. The prelude is currently totaled after some moron stole it and took it on a high speed pursuit. Getting spike stripped while doing in excess of 120mph was not good for my baby. He's currently service a 10 year sentence. The prelude is being replaced by a 280sx which will be made into a '63 Ferrari 250gto, 350ci chevy small block powered.

I'm sure I'll be chastised for replying to this thread again, even though I was asked to

Keep modding your protege if it makes you happy, obviously the people on this board love it so it must be a good thing to some people.

5 years ago I would have liked it too, im sure. I'm just not the ricer I used to be.

Think of it this way. It is a car...yes he wanted opinions but to sit here and argue about it is kinda pointless. Yes we saw your opinion and thanks for answering his post, (though it isnt my place to give thanks) but compared to all of the other problems in this world wether or not people understand what you are trying to get at is a small matter.
The only reason I argued my reasoning (that was a dumb sentence) is that people started bombarding me with **** for giving my opinion. I wouldnt have even posted again if people had not given me **** for doing EXACTLY what was asked of me.

And for the record, I am the biggest problem in the world.

ring ring.

Well, you are right iibbmm, he asked for comments and you gave it. But i myself and i believe there are others that are sick of hearing you cry like a baby about how much you don't like his car.
And excuse me but i think he takes the criticism quite well. And its a shame you can't respect and nicely done up car. Driving a car like his does not make you immature in anyway. How about you go to a couple car shows and look at the cars in the wild catagory and you will find people old enough to be your dad. And bmans car would fit right in in that catagory. You say your protege is basicly stock for a reason.. you have your fun cars? I haven't seen you do anything special or outstanding to your prelude and 951. Excuse me for saying but like you and some others might like the basicly stock look. Well bman, I, and some others like the wild eye catching mouth dropping look. That is just a matter of taste. His car is not your taste because your taste is boring. my point is we already know you don't like his car. so how about you shut your mouth now.
oh by the way sorry for being 2 blunt! its my nature
