VIP style is supposed to be on big Japanese or European sedans, not S2000's

I still wanna see though, will look more like a drift set-up on a 2-seater...

Actually, VIP is supposed to be any finite number of platforms modded in a specific Yakuza style.

VIP-style encompasses that Yakuza style in the non-VIP platforms. EXE (or executive) is a subset of VIP-style regardless of platform.

Here's a micro-car that's VIP styled:


still looking for the white RSX-S from TX that was done VIP-style

So markfromaurora is correct, the S2000 could/would be VIP-style if it's pulled off to some level of completion (not just a drop and big-lipped wheels).

Also for a point of discussion, would SilentDancer's setup be more 'drifter-style' or is it more of a borrow from the Euro tuner guys (flared fenders, deep lips, mucho negative camber, clean/custom paint, etc.)?

I said "VIP style", the original post was "VIP".

There is a huge discussion to be had on the topic. How "VIP" is someone in a FWD Kei Car/sporty car?

Best article on the topic from a Western perspective:

Real gangstas in Japan roll European or American sedans.

Here's what I read:

That's all I was correcting.

...and yup, read that article. It's delineated there what the author describes as VIP vs VIP style vs. etc.

BTW, I'm Luder94 on www.vipstylecars.com too.
