That isn't a picture of my actual car, but mine is exactly the same, minus the pretty spray job. Mine is just plain orange (hence the reason I chose this photo), with a big orange front window sticker.

Everything else is the same. The alloys, the spoiler, the hood vents, the general bodykit etc. all comes with the car.

I love you! :love: :kiss: Death, you sure do have an excellent sense of style when it comes to vehicles.:fuzwink:

I was fortunate to recieve large sums of money from a very rich uncle at the age of 15. I saved it for about 4 years until I left home. I spent alot of money on the house and invested in a business that I knew would be booming by the time my money starts running out. Thanks to sound financial planning, I can now afford things like cool cars and big guns! :D

Trust me, all the boring stuff you learn on a business course in college is well worth it. All you need is a few thousand pounds/dollars/yen/whatever and a good business to invest in.

oddguy 08-27-2003 01:16 AM

Yeah, I'm aiming to start a film company with sort of an "out of the box" quality to the projects that are chosen. New movies with new ideas......not the same old stock characters in different situations.

My parents are in the film industry and have a tv series that major networks are looking at right now. When things take off, my parents are going to pay me for all the helpfull work I've provided the past years......and well, I want to be smart and save it up so I can start that company I've always dreamed of and more.

Thats a pretty neat idea.

Me and a freind want to start a house building business. We have found a place that sells houses for almost 10 times more than what it costs to build. For instance, a £50,000 house will sell there for £500,000.

oddguy 08-27-2003 01:55 AM

House Building Business is where all the money lies my friend. Good choice.:fuzwink: I have a friend who's dad is in house development and he's so rich that when people get him a gift, no matter what it is, he allready has it.

Why don't you custom paint it like that! It looks so cool!

oddguy 08-27-2003 01:57 PM

The flying person on that paintjob looks stupid though.:fuzsad:

Codek 08-27-2003 04:21 PM

I was actually thinking of getting a spray job something similar to that. Any ideas?

GrigtheSlig 08-27-2003 04:47 PM

You could get this really cool blue flames on the front of your car...or you could put Abe and Munch on the front of your car...or whatever you like! I'm thinkin' that orange car with blue flames would be so cool!:fuzwink: :fuzcool: :D

Codek 08-27-2003 05:08 PM

I like the idea of your XBOX abe and munch spray job. I might just do that.

Yeah my freind has blue flames, so I would kinda look a bit lame if I got them too. It would look neat but, you know how it is.

GrigtheSlig 08-27-2003 05:17 PM

Yeah, it'd be like, "Hey, I got Blue flames too!" That'd be really lame! But the XBOX thing would be cool! XBOX,Oddworld and cars would mix very well!

Codek 08-27-2003 05:24 PM

A big XBOX "X" on the front hood would be cool. With Abe and Munch on the side...

I'll take her down to the local garage next week and find out if they can do it.

GrigtheSlig 08-27-2003 05:30 PM

They probably could, you'd just have to provide the pics of Abe and Munch, and the X! Then when it's done, you'll have to take pics for us to see your car! I'd have Abe on the driver side door, Munch on the passenger side, the big X on the hood, and Steef on the trunk! Sounds good! But you'd have to save some room for the rest of the quintology characters!

oddguy 08-28-2003 05:17 AM

Which Abe and Munch pics would you use, death?
This is so exciting!

-oddguy:fuzcool:

PinkHaired Mudokon CWR 08-28-2003 12:57 PM

Mercedes Benz, Mustang, and a BMW oh yeah baby!

GrigtheSlig 08-28-2003 02:31 PM

*gives hi five to pinky* Goin' for the expencive cars I see, they're the best!

Codek 08-28-2003 06:37 PM

I think I will use the pic of abe folding his arms, and munch in behind next to him...

Fez 08-28-2003 06:43 PM

pugeot (spelling!?) 206 CC for me

Excellent choice!:D I hope it works out so you can paint your car like that.

Facsimile 08-29-2003 08:52 AM

Don't do it Death. You will regret it one day. If I had gone and gotten my car all 'Odded up' I would sit it on the train tracks.

oddguy 08-29-2003 01:21 PM

If he regrets it later, I'm sure he can just get a new paint job. Death is wealthy enough.:fuzwink:

Mojo 08-29-2003 01:32 PM

My fave car??? That must be a classic Mustang or a big, big, BIG Dodge Ram... The pure power... *drool*

Codek 08-29-2003 02:13 PM

But Alphascrab, wouldn't you prefer a car that actually USES some of that amazing power? Like for instance the Ferrari F50 or the Lamborghini Countache?

Or maybe even the Dodge Viper Coupe? That car has a truck engine in it...

GrigtheSlig 08-29-2003 03:58 PM

I don't even really like Vipers...Corvettes are way cooler! They're cooler looking, I don't really know power wise.

Majic 08-29-2003 07:02 PM

Here you are, being narrow minded again in your views Death;) Trying to ocnvince people to change their taste in cars... To note it though, Vipers aren't suppose to have that good of a ride.

Anyways... www.trv-eng.co.uk Thats TVRs website. Since it doesn't actually use regular images, I can't post any, but check out "Vitual Showroom" and Tuscan to see the beauty of my dream car. The interior picture for the Tuscan S shows a good view of what the interior is like. *drools*.

EDIT: Might as well put some real pictures up. Got them from this site. Check out the speed 12 also... http://www.gspovey.demon.co.uk/garag...els/tussp6.htm

Mojo 08-29-2003 07:04 PM

Heh, In Project Gotham Racing you could drive a Tuscan TVR long before ity was available to the public. I thought that was funny... Still, I like the Mustang and Ram best.

The Red Muse 08-30-2003 06:58 AM

Man, you're all too fancy! My dream car is an old Wolkswagen or Lada, painted pink, backseats removed and replaced with friggin' huge 12'' loudspeakers! Also, I'd really fancy those fur-dice-thingies... Hehee!

I'd drive around with my friend, listening crappy music.

That's my dream...

*sigh*

Codek 08-30-2003 12:56 PM

NO! NOT A LADA! PLEASE! I hate those stupid Russian stereotype cars!

My parents both drive one, and they are terrible cars!

*sigh*

I sometimes dream of just driving by myself. I'm never alone in the world, and sometimes I just need some alone time! *Crawls into corner* Just leave me alone for a while!

Whaaat? What's wrong with Ladas? They're the best... They're so comfy and good looking---and safe too; if you drive faster that 30km/h, the engine will blow up... well that's my own theory, but you get the point.
Man, Russians sure do make great cars... :D :p

GrigtheSlig 08-30-2003 01:09 PM

*Drags the computer over to the corner* Sounds like a car my parents would aprove of. What do they even look like?

Heh, there you go some old Ladas! Hah!:D

Of course, the new models look a bit more... newer... :fuzconf:

GrigtheSlig 08-30-2003 01:16 PM

Thank ye! Those cars aren't that ugly, there are better cars, but if they're cheep, and they drive, then you go for it!

Zach Roy Wilson 08-30-2003 01:24 PM

This probaly isn't somenthing to be classified as a car. But I would like to have one of these...

GrigtheSlig 08-30-2003 01:27 PM

I don't think that counts ZRW. But if you can make it, that's fine with me!

Forbidden Paradise 08-30-2003 01:33 PM

My dream car is the car I drive now. You can check it out on the link I got in my signature. It's powerful and not too heavy on the pocket. I can turn a few heads every now and then as well. But then again, always start out with something small.

Btw Holden is the Australian counterpart of GM :D

Hobo 08-30-2003 03:27 PM

Aston Martin Vanquish. - Sweet looks, nice speed. Big Price. Or any decent looking Aston actually.........

Alcar 08-30-2003 03:32 PM

Any car that I can afford. Which means I'll be walking for most of my life :p

Alcar...

GrigtheSlig 08-30-2003 04:39 PM

But Alcar, I don't think you see the purpose of this thread. You don't even think about money when in here, just what cars would you like if you had an unlimmited amount of money! Now, post again and think happy car thoughts!:fuzwink:
