So as most of u know Im due back to the states in Septermber and I figure now was a good time to search for a car for my wife. I've narrowed it down pretty solid. Im looking for a Honda Accord. Now keep in mind this isnt my car. This is for her and the lil one. Plus I plan on building it up too. But Im going a completely different approach with it. Im building it V.I.P style. I figure even though she is married with a kid there's no reason for her not to drive like one aka (soccer mom). I figure Id completely build and VIP and give that confidence and mintality thats she's still hot and can still keep it gangsta.




Just an idea but with a Honda Accord




Any thoughts or opinions on this?

The reason I want to do this is because, she loves VIP cars and so do I, and out here in Oki most of the VIP cars are owned and built by girls. Guys are more for power and girls are more for the luxery and style not so much functionality. Thats just how it is here. Put ur elf in my shoes. U have a Japanese wife who is going out of her norm so the best u can do is bring a lil of home to her. Plus at the same time its something we both like.

My thoughts exactly. For the Misses, might as well just get a Sedan and put some nice rims on it for her. Or a SEXY Toyota Tundra! What can be more safe and sexier than that?

I hate trucks myself, but as soon as I laid eyes on that Tundra, I pictured myself a Transformer, and I began to have robotic sex with one. OoOooOhhHhhh......


Anyways, I see lots of chicks round here drive those trucks (and everyone will modify anything in my city. From Honda accord limos - to a lowered Honda CRX on daytons *Throws up* but to give you an idea bout my city, how they will modify anything! Pintos! Geo Metros! Their bicycles if they can't afford a car).



I didn't see the money thing. Well...... I agree with Art again, with like a Legend or something.

VIP style should stick to the main big body sedans. LS, GS, RL, and a few Infiniti.

I'd say get a GS300, the first generations and early second generations can be found in great shape for less than $5k, and can look like this:











Plus you would have a 2JZ, which is a significant step up from a Honda in itself.

Pretty much, all a VIP car is more of "Gangsta Tunning" if u wanna spice it up a lil. The VIP scene actually orignated from Yakuza, the japanese mofia, the locals thought it was atractive so started building therir cars to that particular style. When u think of the VIP obviously u think VeryImportant Person aka Rich. Any car can be made into a VIP not just ur standard GS3 or 400 of Celsiors or wut not. Plus the reason the wife and I chose the Accord as our candidate is because she like the classiness of it and its small. she's only 5' 3 so a Gs is just too big for her.

I really liked and miss my 98 Accord, but luxurious is not a word I would use to describe that car. When I think VIP style, I think Aristo...

Im trying to do that. Interior is getting a make over VIP inspired. Car is already shiny black tongue.gif needs pearl. more drop to come. Need to find some dope rims that give the right VIP look. its hard turning a sport car into vip.

Again, they do look drug dealerish......... But after seeing that IS250 Jon posted.......... FAWK! I think I am in love! That is sexy. The more I see these, the more nice they look. But I still refuse. I am barely trying to get up in the whole JDM thing..... But those are nice.
