that really is god awful....looks like a blue peter special with odd bits of cornflake boxes cut out and stuck on willy nilly....
Come on, if you like the looks of a stock S, you can't like this? very little resemblance?
The lines of the car are hidden behind an airfix kit...and it has a red dash board??

I rarely venture from the UK section so I like threads like this as I get to see what other people are doing. I really hope it doesn't go down hill though. To me it's like someone asking what's the best dinner and then people arguing between lobster, fish fingers and a curry.
I always lusted over Phil_D's old S2000

Fish finger are trickier, though.

Functional for whom? Can I drive my daughter to school in either of them? Pack enough gear for a full week at Le Mans? Drive it every day and not have to worry about stick on parts falling off? Gets a week's worth of shopping in the boot? All this and still tear ass around on B-roads with the top down?

I'm 29 so not that old and bought my S at 27. I liked it from 21 when I had an ITR and developed a liking for high revving NA's....
I hated body kits then and still do now, so little to do with age, more to do with taste.
If it's a race car, then fair enough, but any road car dressed up like a drag queen is just a bit silly IMO.

The title also doesn't mention:
-you must be able to get a weeks shopping in
-pack enough for lemans
-must be able to blast down b roads with the top down

Hi Phil
I agree it's more to do with taste but what is a drag queen? Genuine question as I could say that this is a road car dressed up
Does this fall into the definition of a drag queen?
Same could possibly also be said about Evos, Imprezas etc. They all have standard 'kitless' looking variants for sale. I can't see the line between those and say the Amuse kit. The only difference I really see is that the arches, wings etc were already on the car from the factory.
