Topic #58355 25 posts Started by sous710
any idea when theres going to be a new featured ride. nothing against Supersprynt but i like to hear about how people got their cars and what they had to go though with them. i kno they have to be planned out and take time but there fun to read.

That is interesting, although I personally think it is a great honor to have your ride as a featured ride. If we had just random cars up there, what goals to new members have? At least that is how I look at it. If I were many new people, I would want to see a ride that has it all. Not something that just has cool rims or a custom bodykit unless it had it all. Which is why they stay up there for so long, again, in my opinion or what I think I see.

i think we should have featured rides every month or so. and have the mods pick 3 or 4 rides and then have us members vote.

just an idea

i'd rather have it quarterly or 3 times a year.. monthly would be waay too much.

by no means do we want to get rid of you man, there just comes a time to move on... what do people always want? more, we want more featured rides.

lolz no worries bro hawaii always got yo back biggrin.gif
malpaso's ride will be up there im sure of that. that guy has soo much info to share biggrin.gif

I don't normally drive fast, but when I do its on a curvy section of this island
The thing is that there are actually quite a few people's cars that are good canidates for being featured, so a switch off every 3-6months probably would be good.

yea once a month would be to much. i would like to see some of the cars that i dont always see. with over 6k members i bet theres some wicked crazy custom celica's. like that 1 (cant remeber his name will edit tomaro) with the v6. now thats B/A.

maybe someday when my car is finished it may be featured (Curren conversion + 20V 4AGE wink.gif ) doubtful it will happen but I can wish oh btw I say every 3 months is a good timeframe

If anyone needs info on the Toyota Curren feel free to PM me!

haha you guys are quick. yea he's the one.
I think every few months or so is a fine timeframe... it kinda separates the "cream of the crop" from the rest. IMO a FR should be more than a paintjob and body kit.

Some day I'd like to see my car up there... not for the recognition, but because I hope some day my car is even worthy of it! Maybe I can be the Prettiest Stock Around FR. ha ha ha

I just watched that teaser video of your car......... I am blown away. Yeah, we need rides like that up in featured rides. WOW

I think every month is actually a good rotation...you can always read past featured interviews and such if you miss a month. It's just that I'm so busy I barely have time for this, so they usually end up stuck up there for a few months at a time.

I'm working on a tool so that the moderators can control this themselves, but it's not quite done yet.

New Toyota project coming soon...
awsome!!!!!! can we vote???? i like that idea.
I like the voting idea too... but is there a way to vote on the car w/out necessarily knowing who its owner is? That way it doesn't turn into a popularity contest.

That's kind of hard to do, since alot of cars on here have something distinct about them that you'd recognize (like a certain paint job, body kit, wheels, motor ext..) Especially if it's someone who posts alot on these forums. Mabey there should just be nominations and have the Moderators/Coomer figure out who'd be the best candidate.

you could open a new thread as a poll.the mods can pick som random ppl and we vote?
i think only coomer or a mod should open a thread like that...my vote:

malpaso
batman
itchy
azian
