[Head Wreck]

i think this seriously has a high risk of turning into another serious thread.

could people keep the seriouslys to phee's serious thread.

In the interest of keeping things as un-serious as possible...

from 4th Street in Detroit

[ssid67]

I want one in black

Mega-Serious!!

[paradox]

This one's pretty damn cool too:

hey! ive got one of those! B)

[Head Wreck]

The car must be British, yes, it must be black, it cannot be masculine, it cannot be have a convertable top and it should be boxy rather than sporty. Headwreck was closest with the Citroen but what I propose is the average London taxi. It's perfect. And being that there are so many of them alike, the London taxi also gathers what is the essence of industrial rock.

nearly bought one of those. tight turning circle and lots of room for general shit.

they did do a model for non comercial ownership that didnt have that taxi light. but no one bought one. i'd still chop and lower that roofline.

Agreed on all points except the British bit. And I think silver, gunmetal, or white are also acceptable colors (certainly not red or mint green, tho ). And... just out of curiosity, what makes a vehicle "masculine" or "feminine"? Examples? Would "masculine" be like a truck or off-road vehicle?

I meant to add this before. Some reviewer actually called it a "gothic death cab" or something like that. Plus it may very well be my next vehicle... so there!

Mark has absolutly the best taste in cars.

Unfortunatly I was the only one in a room of 4 who got so excited seeing these first two you posted.....but there is always hope for my family...heh.

I agree with the non-british part. But a goth car can have many colors, even not so gothy colors, but in the right design, it may be possible to pull of... My personal opinion of a good color, would be a black background with red designs, possibly with orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, grey, or white... i think brown would be clear out. A straight Jet black car with shiney chrome things on it would look pretty cool too. But it's gotta have attitude like it's royally fuckin pissed off and itchin for a fight. But basic elements I'd like to see is simply, a black base color (the magority of the color) red somewhere in it, chromed wheels, wipers, ect, tinted windows. My car is black, with some red bumper stickers, and red underlights (well, before they broke by hitting 2 ducks) but I'll post a pic of my car in it's prime. It's no where near winning the competition, but I like to show and tell sometimes.

I think this car would have been waaay cooler, if the supercharger stickin out the hood was actually real and connected to the engine and functional...

actually the car in the picture does have a 600hp blown V-8 in it... unlike the movie version.

[Mzdeadlyspell]

My car is in the beginning stages of some mods....but I love it ....

Just wanted to put pictures up...I know it is not the gothiest of them all..but I am proud of her just the same..
