Default Jimmie Johnson Monte Carlo

I was looking around on ebay and came across this. im not gonna lie, i like it. Put a set of black nacar style wheels on it and id pimp it. He did manage to spell Jimmie Johnson wrong even though its written on his roof.

I don't know if I'm in to it, but it would kinda be cool to see it with some black NASCAR styled wheels.

I think the only NASCAR brand / image that could ever pull that off is the black #3. To me that race car looked good from any angle, especially with tinted windows.

Can't see trashing my $28,000 car to advertise for anyone unless it was owned by that company.

If I saw that on the road I'd think redneck.

^ I agree. I think a Dale Sr. done just like this would look great, and I'd actually drive it around. I'd be afraid to actually park it somewhere and be away from it for a while, but I think it would make a nice conversation piece at the least.

I'm a Kyle Busch fan and I think a M&Ms or Snickers Camry would be badass on the street
