New School Sexyness & Old School ugliness

[KevRC4130]

Beautiful calypso. M-tec II wing would look tits, ala that bronzit with merely rims and a wing.

No no! Don't do this! One of the best parts of the calypso is how clean and simple it looks without any wings or anything else.

I beg to differ, a mtech II wing would look tits on the calypso.

These pics are a perfect comparison of old school versus new school styling. I personally think new school is a stunning victory but that is just me. Andy's car is probably one of my top 3 favorites on this site. It's just gorgeous.

Say Andy's car had stock springs.
Let's just suppose.
And suppose Chris's iS had the full MTech1 works---do you still feel the same TJ?

I think all an early model needs is plastic bumpers to look equally as cool, sometimes euro bumpers pull that off, too. Especially body-colored ones.

I'm a bigger fan of the early tails too, but it depends on the car.

It would draw it in a lot but I still prefer the late model body and "new style" wheels over the RZ's.

I agree with Josh though, I like some aspects of the early models such as the tails and rear fender arches. Jordan really had the right idea by combining the best of both worlds, but he went in the wrong direction with a lot of his parts.

The beauty I see in Andy's car is the pure simplicity of the upgrades/mods. Its clean, yet not overdone, but still different.

My car on the other hand, will have a lot more asthetics done to it, just to make it look "decent". Given the path I chose to go with body mods, a newer style wheel just wouldnt flow. On Andy's the SSR's fit perfect. I mounted his SSR's on my car about 2 years ago, and it looked great, just not right.

Either way... Andy's trounces mine, its faster, cleaner, and better paint!!!

Is that a stock rear seat in Andy's Calypso?

[Bimmerfanatik]

Hey, fuck you both for not calling me! Some sort of elite rt. 1a e30 cruising going on without me? Thanks a bunch!

Cars look great guys. Andy - bout time you got it back. Chris - doesn't look like you r3ved the car as you led us to believe...

Both look awesome. That hounds sport interior is pimp.

Looks M3 to me.

I just decided that iS side skirts are perfect.

[M42Technik]

I hate Andy for new Calypso paint.

I hate Chris for his interior.

I love both cars.

And Andy, how much was the paintjob?
