Re: Pimp My Ride

Yeah, what a pile of shit... The guy even has to climb in through the hatch because neither of the doors work.

Re: Pimp My Ride

You guys do realize they fuck the cars up a lot more than they really are just to get that "POS" effect on the show.

Re: Pimp My Ride

They do mess the cars up before you see them. I really don't think anyone would have a car they can't get into. Why would a 2G's doors not work?

Chronically broken handles. Or the rod inside the door that attaches to the handle.

I think they give them a two week notice. TalonTSiDude knows. He had seen the setup for that 240 they did. The car wasn't that bad off. For the show they had made the popups not work and unbolted something...anywho. School is out so I am too.

Re: Pimp My Ride

I've never seen or heard of a DSM that had non-working doors. Every single one i've ever seen, even in junkyards...they all work. If anything the hatch wouldn't work

Re: Pimp My Ride

Its generally the hatch's lock cyclinder that will break first. Even if the door handles did break...uh oh a $40 part!!

Re: Pimp My Ride

that would be funny if X just fixes the locks and takes off the altezzas and says "the dsm community would not let me fix your car so i guess your SOL dawg."

Re: Pimp My Ride

This black 2G they plan on "PIMPING" would prolly be better off in a junkyard. Besides the fact that it's prolly not a turbo and doesn't really matter wut they do to it......it's still gonna be a slow-ass POS.

Re: Pimp My Ride

I have seen someone need to get in through the hatch of the car before. Some asian kid who I took car classes with drove his brother's integra and had to. They were shaving the door handles off and shaved the handles before putting the poppers in.

Re: Pimp My Ride

My door handle broke off on my driver's side door one morning on my way out the door for work. DSMz break dude! If it isn't believable on another car, believe it if it's on a DSM!

I gotta see this part just for the hell of it. Maybe they'll throw a EvoVIII turbo into it... .

Re: Pimp My Ride

^^ haha, yeah right. Instead of the turbo, for compensation of it being a slow POS, they'll add three 7" inch moniters. They never do anything to the engine besides change the oil or clean it up with an engine dress-up kit.
