Which Stanced folk did this?

I think it's a cool picture. I want to park my Jeep on top of that X5 though. That would make it even more fun.

Thanks for the cool starry bra...swapping a tranny is talent?

Is rusting an e28 and dubbing it "rusty", or any other car for that matter a talent? No? Then why is it treated like it? Hell, if thats the case, 99% of the Midwest is "talented" I guess.

While changing a transmission may not actually be a talent, it is a skill. A useful and purposeful one at that, unlike M B's rusty pos.

I can dig it. I am assuming that E39 was already screwed up.

The e39 is just a parts car that Fluid had laying around. No harm done ;)

First off how did you get on the topic of Rusty? I was talking about the X5 that is of focus here... Welding is harder than unscrewing bolts(tranny). Thus my example of talent is the custom parts that went into building it. THAT is what I LOVE about the X5. It is not just another bolt on build like most of what you see. It is dripping in cool bits and touches.

Now at the Rusty comment: If you think Rusty is a POS then you are being ignorant. I love how people bash something they cannot pull off. But then they come back with "I would never make something that dumb and useless" It is not how practical the car is built for, it is the factor of work and little touches that went into it. Did you ever read the whole build thread for Rusty? If not it is worth going though and seeing the amount of work they all put into it.

Does not matter to me if it is stance'd, rusted, race, looks or show. Everything done with effort and care is worth admiring. I personally would never do that to my car but I respect the work in Rusty.

But I guess this is the norm for r3v: 24v swap(god forbid non-bmw), plastic bumpers and more stance(but NOT TOO low). I say fuck the haters and build what makes you smile. Prime example is that kid with the rattle can lime green wheels with poke and stickers. I honestly would NEVER in a million years put a sticker on my car but to each their own. He got a SHIT ton of flame for his build. But unlike most he stuck with it and made something very cool. Sure it did not have custom shit out the ass or rare parts to get your E-dick hard. But I loved that he expressed himself though his car. THAT is what building a car is all about; not to impress interwebz morons.
