When did they ever say that? Most of the people I saw on that show are like, "Yea...that's what I could afford." or "Man, this thing's a piece of crap, I wished I didn't hafta drive this thing."

Yea, that thought always crossed my mind. I'd rather pay off some bills or buy a new car rather than have some uber tricked out bucket that'll probably get broken into and stripped apart a week or so later. The plasma TV, PS2, XBox, and whatever belongs in my house if I don't have one, not in my car. :P

hey let me paint this dudes caddy freaking orange with all kinds of crap on it.
the best one they did was that Scion xB because the dude could take it somewhere and have all those rediculously ugly flame degals removed.
I mean..personally the bug was one of the only ones where I went..bah..that's alright. Even though I don't like a lot of the colors and what not..would be sicker if it was set up like that and just painted flat black or white. I didn't see the bus.
but damn...look at the things like the old trucks or the crx or what not. Rediculous.
I'd sell that crap on Ebay too. I mean that chick is gonna have enough to by herself a decent new/newer car. like a civic or RS or something like that.
Thing I'm surprised is that MTV doesn't have something in the contracts that say if it's sold before months or a year or something...that you have to pay a percentage back to the show. probably the only limit is that you have to wait until after the episode has been on.

The Bus was about the only one I liked, and thats because they did the old school 2-tone paint scheme. Plus the TV they put in it is as big as the one in my living room.

Yeah, they are a bling shop. I been to a few of the high end bling shops in socal and WCC was ok. They do decent work, but nothing I saw blew my socks off. If you really want to pimp your ride visit 310 motoring, they do amazing work. The place is spotless as well, as any high end shop should be.
