Default What do you think of my camaro? (56k no way)

Okay, let me first start off with this. The car is very unique, so I know alot of you are going to either hate it, or like it. Honest oppinions are welcome, but please no bashing. This car has been 100% done by me, and will continue to be.

NOTE: The hood and whole car is going to be painted in the next couple months, leaving the sides of the cowl in carbon fiber, and I am currently trying to find someone to make me a carbon fiber berger panel to match the car. The sponsorship stickers will be removed (I got the sparco seat for near free for having them on there) so, take this all into account.

Looks good. The only thing I am not feeling is the hood. An SS hood would look better in my opinion.

Row calls are for ricers, the carbon fiber hood is not my forte, neither are the hood pins. The body kit looks bad on all camaros so I'd take that off too. Not a big fan, but there are different strokes for different folks

It may be a v6, but its soon to be turbo'd, and well.. check out my cardomain in my sig for the rest , its a peppy v6, put it that way.

Guess Im not really a fan of it primarily because of all those ricerific stickers. I dont like the hood pins, and your hood could be aligned much better. The car has too many ricer things going for it right now, V6, huge tach, stickers, carbon fiber, hood pins... No comment on the interior.

What is rice about a v6?

Granted, our platform is typically based out of a v8, and when most people look at a camaro or fbody, they think of a v8, but I dont see how thats rice.

I honestly like having a v6, and im hoping to get into the low 11's with my 'rice v6'.

Of course the V6 itself isnt rice, its the V6 paired with all the other things I pointed out that makes it rice, once you get the turbo Ill retract my statement, about the V6 anyway. The other stuff I mentioned isnt what I would call tasteful on a Camaro, course that is my opinion, and we all have one.

Everyone has their oppinion, it doesnt bother me really. I just wanted to see a general concenus of what people thought (granted im on an LS1 forum, so most everyone here has the same taste).

If you'll look at my cardomain though, this isnt your normal unmodded v6 with a ton of exterior mods. You dont see many cammed, heads, sprayed, geared v6's around...

I know my taste is quite different than the typical fbody owner, and the car is changing, what it will end up being I dont even know. But I think its 'tasteful' meaning it doesnt look like it was done halfassed. The hood alignment bothers me, but I dont think there is anything I can do about that honestly.

I would take off the gfx, the decals, get a diff. hood and remove the hood pins. The inside, well im not really feeling it, but thats just me.

You could of had a V8 for the money you've put into it. Not my cup of tea but some of the mods look good.

Lose the hood pins, that V6 isn't gonna jump out of the hood. The exterior looks pretty good, but the interior is a whole different story.
