Same stanced cars getting features all the time

[Moose]

I held my tongue in your other threads, but since you asked for it here is my actual opinion on your car and why it hasn't gotten the recognition you are so convinced it deserves. First off, most of your posts reek of a need to be accepted/recognized for your car. Why not just enjoy your car and build it for yourself? Your "rare/expensive" carbon fiber goodies look like shit and are out of place on the car. An e60 is a classy car, and the boy racer exposed carbon fiber does not work. The wheels, which you I am assuming, you custom ordered due to the offsets and widths, do not look great on the car. The black faces/lips get "lost" and blend in with the tires. If you went with brushed/polished it would have done wonders for your car. At the end of the day you have bolted on some parts, just relax and enjoy your car. If all you set out to do was get featured, you are in it for the wrong reasons anyways. The cars that get featured are usually because the end result is an appealing car, and not necessarily the sum of the receipts.

Very well said.

If you had gone with a painted hood and trunk, full polish or atleast polished lipped wheels in 19s or maybe even super wide 18s, and slammed it to a dangerous height, you would've easily had a feature car. More than a feature car. It would be all over.

Honestly, the 20s are killing you imo. You can't get near low enough. If you must, at least camber and tuck those vip style.

With that said, you're car is still really really dope.

lol @ building your car to get 5 minutes of fame on an internet blog.

Both of these posts are extremely true. It sounds to me (and apparently most others in this thread, that you personally are upset that your car has not been featured. Sure stanced E60's are rare, but lets face some facts here, just because you have quality expensive parts, doesn't mean that they are; A) Look proper on the car, B) Mean your car is instantly better than the other cars featured on here because their parts are "cheaper" by comparison, C) Entitle to you a feature in anyway shape or form.

Normally I don't tear into people like this on the internet, but whatever if I come across like a dick so be it, I don't mean to come across that way, I am merely saying what I believe.

Your car looks completely unfinished, the exposed CF looks stupid on there, it takes the class right out of the E60. The CF parts, are the exact same as their stock counter parts, no where is there a hint of a upgrade other than the tacky exposed CF. Your car isn't THAT low, I mean yes its low, but it looks like a moderate drop on springs, not a serious drop on coils. The black 20" wheels get completely lost in the wheel well, you can't tell where the tire starts, and the wheels begin, you can only barely see that the wheels are even there in many cases. Sure its different, a stanced E60 because these things are still extremely expensive for most people, especially on this site. But really, different doesn't always mean better.

Personally, I think your car needs a lot of changes before its feature worthy (I am sure there are many who disagree with me), but thats just my opinion. The reason you see a lot more of certain cars is because they are cheaper, and have many more aftermarket parts available for them which makes modifying them much easier, and because people have a real love for their cars. They aren't doing it to be E-Famous, they are doing it because its what they love to do. I know plenty amazing cars that will never be featured because they don't want it, not because they aren't worthy. It seems to me that you just want to be able to flaunt how much money you have spent on your car, and get the E-Fame that comes with it.

I am sure that you will disagree with what I have just said, but thats what it appears to me, and those are my true honest feelings about your car. If you want to argue with me about that please send me a PM and we can handle it there, and not clutter this thread with a back and forth debate.

lol @ this thread

if your car isn't getting attention and you want it to, change something

making a thread like this won't help.

Not to be a douche, but I think your car, specifically, hasn't been featured because it just isn't that appealing. The lack of a lip and the cf pieces make it seem unfinished.

That being said, there are unique cars featured, but you seem to be frustrated for a different reason all together.

This is the only answer needed in this thread. At the end of the day, what you are saying is that you built this car to get peoples recognition. Not to build a car for yourself. If you built it for yourself, then this thread would not exist because you would not care about what other people on the internet thought.

Argue the point all you want, But by you arguing simply enforces the fact you just want to be recognised.


Remember, pouring money into something doesnt mean automatic fame, even if you dont see it often.

I think what everyone is saying is. "Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken."

this^ polished or brushed 19's woulda looked way better and th carbon has to go, that's just my .02..

Like everyone else has said, build the car for yourself not for 5min of fame

If you ever do get a feature, I will still remember you as "that guy with the kinda cool e60 that was butthurt that the super nice cars were getting features."

[DriftGirl]

If the people who run those blogs and websites are "into" a certain make and model. Thats their loss or gain. You're not going to change what they like by complaining about it. do you and let the pieces fall where they may.

Seriously, Unless you're building a car FOR your sponsors...who cares?

If you're building it for your sponsors then pick a cookie cutter platform and follow the formula. Ive dropped full sponsors, declined many (wed,mag,tv) offers to "play ball". Im gonna do me and if thats not good enough...fine.

At the end of the day, I love what I do (and what I build) and thats all that matters.

Jus do your thing

^ all anyone should do. plenty of cars dont get features that "deserve it" some get hurt others dont care cause theybuild fir themself not others. if ur buildin it for others y are u even doin this? just to be cool? car doesnt make u. u make the car

[stunnrstatus]

get some polished wheels, your car looks lost in all the pics because the wheels are black. they probably look awesome in person but in pictures you need something that stands out.

Bitch Bitch Bitch, Whine, Whine, Whine....

[OMG TSX]

i personally dont give a f*ck how expensive it costs to "stance a car." a dope ass e60 and a dope ass miata both equally deserve to be on the same page. you can agree or disagree, but i could care less how much more "prestigious" a bimmer is compared to a little japanese car.

[NegativeCamber]

why dont you ask the many other blogs/forums as well? what are their responses?
