The horrors of craigslist vol.1

We've all been on craigslist scanning through the piles and piles of utter crap to hopefully find a nice gem. Usually It doesn't happen, but you never know. I have nothing against it, but I've never had any luck with craigslist. We've all seen it. The horrible abominations in the car+trucks section. It just makes you think...Why would you do that??

Don't understand what I mean?

Let me show you...




Here we have a Dodge Neon. Don't know the year, don't really care to be honest. Just look at it. Puke color, horrible body kit... and just look at that ass! EW. I don't even think I'd like this car if I was 12...

This on the other hand is a 12 year old's DREAM CAR!



Hell yeah! Remember when flames were cool? Probably in middle school. I put flames on everything. Shit was RAD. To be fair, I guess this car would make a nice showcar. But damn dude. Don't get such a tacky paint job next time... Which leads me to my next car.

A mustang.



Well, Whatever is left of a mustang. It's been so riced to hell, it's hard to make out what it actually is anymore. I would've gotten more pictures but just thinking about it made me want to vomit on my keyboard.

I've been saving the best for last. I nearly had an anal evacuation when I saw this car. Feast your eyes on this beautiful Camaro!




Atleast I think it's a Camaro.
I don't even really need to say anything to make fun of this one so uh...yeah. There it is. These are all real cars I picked from my local craigslist. Real cars, real people trying to sell them. BTW they're selling that Camaro for 4,000 dollars. Better get on that.

...


God I hate people sometimes.

Recaro Racing $eats

I was trolling around andysautosports.com, looking at parts for a 2000 Focus... I stumbled around and got to the racing seats and I was looking around and GOD DAMN, racing seats are disgustingly expensive. I found this one in particular...



It's a Recaro Ergomed ES comfort seat. It retails at $3793.85... EACH.

Let's just put this into perspective here, my car, the 2000 focus isn't even worth 2500 dollars! You'd have to be a damn fool to buy those seats. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure they're great seats, Recaro is a great brand name but jesus... Maybe if you drive like a bmw m3 or Nissan 370z it'd be okay.

Another thing I'm not too fond of on andysautosports is the selection of turbo/super chargers... I'm not going to be boosting my car anytime soon but I wish they had a charger kit that was like...I don't know, under 3 grand.

We're not all rich assholes!

Car Dump!












Every weekend I'll make a point to dump pictures from my personal folder of cool ass cars I've been building up over the years. There are some pics you may have seen before. But I guarantee most of them will be exclusive. This weeks theme: INTEGRAS

First Post 2-20-2010

Hey everyone, First ever post of JDMugen. See what I did thar? For those of you who don't know JDM stands for Japanese Domestic Market. You see, when car manufactures bring their cars over they often change various bits and pieces. To be honest I'm not sure why. But many enthusiasts feel the need to buy all the Japanese parts for their cars. Such as Jdm head and tail lights. You know, Stuff like that. Also, Mugen is a company that makes after market stuff for mostly hondas I believe. They're pretty well respected but if you're thinking about buying some mugen parts you better be ready to spend ALOT of money.



In this picture: Typical JDM Honda Integra. For a long time I was obsessed with JDM integras. As an American I was angry we got stuck with the bug eye headlights but you know what, they kind of grew on me! I actually prefer the bug eyes to be honest. What do you think?
