    Question What's your pleasure...Show or Go?

    Just wondering how the poll will turn out. It seems like these days GO is is more important than SHOW. These days make me think of the ole' hot rodders, greasers racing their big block 442's and such. Nascar's ruling (for the most part) that the actual race car had to put into production making crazy power available to street/drag racers. Now instead of huge cubic inch power we have been blessed by another god...TURBO! the turbo god give use super cars like the STI, Supra, RX7, EVO...etc The power god though did not forget the little people Neon SRT-4, Type R's, 1.8T's, Spec V's, RSX type S, WRX, SVT...etc..Anyways... We will see though, SHOW has been the king for a long time in the import scene and IMO still is.


    I realize some people want both but for this poll you have to stick to your primary choice.

    Poll is set for 11 days.

    Well... I guess repeat threads are always going to come up from time to time. There wasn't a poll last time...

    'Show' or 'Go'? Whatever you want really. It's up the person making the decision. It's purely preference.

    Choose 'Show' if you:
    1- like to cruise at low speeds (ie. popular hang-outs, crowded streets, etc.).
    2- don't like speeding and risking your life, the lives of others, your beautiful car.
    3- don't like the cost of fuel.
    4- could care less about speeding up to the next RED LIGHT (those morons make me laugh).
    5- don't participate in racing of any kind (legit or illegit).

    Choose 'Go' if you:
    Feel the opposite of the above 1 to 5.

    Sound is considered SHOW, since it does not add any peformance to the car.

    Haha, Man i sure love the cost of fuel

    for now i say all go. but maybe in the future when i can afford major show it will change.
    I mean a maybach would be pimp. but so would a Mclaren.

    GO, BABY, GO! But, then again, I do want my car to look decent. If my car had a perfect stock paint job, I wouldn't care about anything except for the go...but I do need a new paint job...hmmmm...and I DO love sound. LOL, spent $650 on my stereo, and that's my deck, amp, and subs. LOL. Hmmmm, tough decision. But with I have now, I still say GO!

    Subtle show and big go makes heads turn. Well makes mine turn anyways. Big go means nothing though if you can't drive it.

    i love both...and have invested in both....the show stuff is fairly easy because you can only go so far (without bastardizing your car)...you could spend tens of thousands of dollars on the engine and still be left wanting more.

    Go is the way to go. That way you can back it up when you show

    ok I love them both but I have to go with show. Mainly because I don't plan on racing my car cause first of all the d16y7 needs way to much money invested into it to get it to the place where I want it to be and if I went for the swap it well i would have to start selling drugs to have enough cash. and i added it up and i would need like $15,000 for what i want. a bit to much for my blood.

    with show, well i accually like the stock grey interior but i would like some black or black and grey racing seats to go in there. and than I have this damn neon that I like (i don't care what you think). and as someone mentioned you can only go so far with show. like I think i will spend about $6,000 at the most if i went show. so there is a big difference plus my crummy d16y7 is fast enought for driving around.
