The first time I saw that car, it was a black guy driving it like a hardcore down sarcee trail. Then I saw it parked in a parking lot with a parking ticket on the window because he was parked in a fire lane.

that's the same car with the "whale tail" spoiler everyone is talking about, right?

someone should print off all these threads about his car and put them under his windshield wiper to read. I'll bet his "shopping cart handle" would be taken down quite soon after that.

It is a black guy that drives it, he's a nice guy but the ride is a pos.

Meh, it's not soooo bad... sure it belongs on a Super Tourer race-car making 500-hp and not on a road-car... but I've seen uglier set-ups.

At least the pillars and the wing it are teh same colour as the car and not some unpainted aluminum/metal thing.

Saw this car yesterday at Dalhousie, doesn't look too bad. At least it's done up nicely and does not look cheap even though you would have to question his taste with spoilers.

Anyone ever see a old red daytona or mustang with a cardboard spoiler and hood scoope that was duct taped to the car?? This was a while ago, but that one would take first place for ugliness.

Okay I have some things to add so its time I replied to this thread.
First off when I saw that pic and heard everybody dissing the spiler I figured it isnt that bad. It actually suite the car and looks half decent right.

We'll I saw the car today in dalhousie and its ridiculous. You can't even tell how large the spoiler trully is without seing it in person. It is far beyond ridiculous I mean even for a drift wing.

anyways I managed to snap 2 pictures before the guy came out then I took off in my cleaner... less ridiculous prelude :D

anyways sorry I didn't get a full on side body shot, I was drawn to the wing and the interior * which is quite nice *

anyways enjoy the pictures guys!.

----NOTE---- I LOVE the Addition of the 50 Cent Air freshener!! haha.
Looks like it might be strawberry :guns: :guns: :guns:


...PS... the Exaust is hurtin... no offense to the owner.


with everything being said, I feel the spoiler is over kill but I give the man props for doing his car up to his own style. he spent lots of money in the vehicle and everything has been molded and painted with perfection.

I seen this car on 16th Ave lots too. The spoiler is much larger than it appears in pics. I can see he parked like an asshat too, great.......

Akagi
04-27-2006, 09:44 PM
Oh yes!! the best part of everything I forgot...

He double parked!(!(!(!*(!*!(*(!*!(!.

before I took the pics I saw an old lady cruise by trying to find a parking spot, she looked at his vehicle and shook her head and took off.

No lie..

I condone him doing his car up the way he sees fit. but I don't condon ruining things for others by double parking.

what appens when a pilot mistakes his spoiler for an airplane hanger and lands in dalhousie square:confused:

lol, when he's stopped at a light someone should just randomly start giving him directions to the airport, and tell him that they don't think it's legal to fly so low.
hahahaha

though I must admit, for a domestic 140 hp car, he at least made it look quite decent (if the wing was a bit smaller and more discreet). I don't like the white and black interior, but that's just me, if it were red/black it would look much better IMO.

BAHAHAHAHAHA....

There is TWO white grand-ams with that stupid ass wing on it in the city.

I saw the first one on friday heading west on hwy1 @ stoney trail.

20 minutes later I saw the other one heading west on glenmore @ elbow drive.

HILARIOUS!

Spotted him at the Tims in crowfoot hahah what a peice of shit. There was a middle aged guy in the passenger seat and a kid who could barley see over the wheel. The kid must have been 14 with his learners lic. the kid thought he was the coolest thing on the street. This is how ricers are born and breeded.:thumbsup:

actually to give the guy props because he is a buddy of mine his names warren and he is a black dude in the silver grand am, he is the first one in Calgary to have that bodykit which cost about 5G's for it all including the spoiler. he meticulously painted all of his interior himself it looks dam professional and he reeeeeally takes care of his car. he spent alot of time and money into this car the exhaust doesnt look like that ridiculous one that the white one has and he has no decals. he, just like most of us take pride in their cars, who are any of us to judge any other beyonders car on a public site? what kind of enthusiasts are you to bash someones car? "to each their own" ever heard of that? IMHO it is the best looking Grand Am in calgary, and i think the wing suits it, its a big car why not a big wing? would you want anyone to bash your car? he is a beyonder and probably wont be now because of this, how embarrassing...

I've only seen the one without the decals. The following is my opinion only, as the only thing that matters is that he likes his car the way it is. The wing is so big, its higher than the roof of the car by far. In my opinion its the most hideous thing I have ever seen. If it is actually made decently enough to produce downforce, he is likely making indents in the pavement where ever he drives. You know when right before an intersection there are those ruts in the pavement? My guess is that car was unleashing all 140 horses in an intense top speed run through that intersection.

I personally think it is stupid to cosmeticly alter a $8000 car to the extent of $5000 body kits, etc., because when he goes to sell it, it is still a grand am, and a domestic car to boot and maybe will see 10% of the money or less that he invested back. That being said, if the wing stays on the car he won't have to worry about anyone ever wanting to buy it when he's done. Or he could sell it to the calgary airport - perhaps they could reverse the wing for lift and it could fly the shorter routes, like from calgary to edmonton.

Anyways, he has every right to take pride in his car, and even install a larger wing if he wants, (not sure that's possible, he may have to contact Boeing for the part #). Just as we have every right to state our opinions about the car on a public forum.

He made the car the way it is NOT JUST for himself (of course, for a large part he did it because he likes it) but also for others to see it. Others see it, and voice their opinions. Live with it.

I, for one, think it's good that he did what he wanted but the whole "what a shame that he's not a beyonder" I would not want him to sport Beyond.ca stickers on his car.
