Yeah, its so weird. They're trying to imitate the camera angles shot in hollywood movies and failing miserably... and also imagine if it was in 3D, his monobrow would stick out so much haha!!!

Sure, make fun of the poor Indian fellow putting Scion stickers on his Suzuki, but don't overlook the folks here that are ready to slap a Toyota or Subaru (Lexus? Any takers?) badge on their Scion.

But anyway...

Reminds me of:

Yeah I have a rather large collection of offenders here... I was going to start up a site but I'm waiting on the address to become available. One of my fav's was a gold Saturn SL2 with BMW logos.

LOL that pic is hilarious!

Putting Toyota badges on the Scion FR-S is different than putting Scion stickers on a Suzuki. That Maruti (Suzuki) Baleno bears no relation the Scion in any way at all. The Scion FR-S is going to be badged a Scion only in NA and outside NA it's going to be badged a Toyota. Also the Scion is really a Toyota that is badged as a Scion, so the two relate. IMO I wouldn't put Subaru or Lexus badges on it because you can buy the Subaru version and Lexus is for luxury only with the exception of the limited-production LF-A.

One of my fav's was a youtube video on a Mustang with GT-R badges. The guy says it has a Turbo Rotary with headers and pistons and it is a limited-production model that does 11's on the 1/4 mile. It also had a bunch of JDM decals on the rear window.

lol, this reminds me.... i was driving yesterday on I75 on my way to my girls house and this idiot on a Infinity G35 gets in front of me... he had rebadge the whole trunk of the car, the car logo was "Nissan" and the model was "G350 GTR" (with the GTR logo) and in the middle of the trunk he had written pretty big the word "SKYLINE".... what a freaking idiot... at the beginning i laughed and then it kind of bothered me...

There's a 'Skyline' G35 Coupe around here, too. I've heard that it is actually a Skyline in Japan (the sedan anyways... haven't cared enough to research the coupe), so this is more akin to people putting 'Vitz' on their Yaris or Echo (also somewhat common around here).

So they can be JDM Yo! In a city somewhat famous for real JDM cars.

"I'm waiting for the Chevy Camero Type R" LOL

"So.. does it have twin turbo Vtech?"

Dimman · 08-25-2011, 09:06 PM

Still lame, as we have real R32 and R33's running around.

You're not JDM unless your wheel's on the wrong side, damnit!
