Whoa this is bleak, it's another bad rip-off like 'Weakest Link' or 'The Apprentice.' Surely it's just a site for car mods and the like?
If it were a TV show though I'd vote for Heinz as presenter

OH MAH GAWD - there is nothing worse than the UK presenter. I had thought he was joking around, and being funny, and then I realised that he seriously thought he was black/Xzibit.

Hahahaha that'd be excellent. I think it'd actually be quite cool

I think this is a really cool idea, I've seen some of the original one with Xzibit and while I think the idiots who mod the car don't know what they doing. I mean really putting stuff like a shoe rack and fish tank in a car is completely ridiculous. I'd still love for them to fix up my car
Hope it's good.

Crap i wish i had a car right about now!
I wonder how much they'll spend on each car, and who the sponsors are? I mean to get anything free from south effricens is really hard!

If indications are the current fleet of customised vehicles in and around Joburg, then they will chrome half the car, hang a CD from the rear view mirror, put a dumb-ass looking spoiler on and add fur to the dash. Each episode will be same as the last.
O, and criminals will write down the address of the newly pimped vehile and go steal it...

no, Valheru.... that sounds more like Durban's take on modding.
the show should move down here and fix up some of the junk we have by the coast

i think the idea of the show is quite cool... whether it will work in SA i dont know...
if i had the chance and cash to sup a car... it must definitely be a Toyota Supra... bronze orange gold... with similar fire decals... dropped.. spoiler.. colourstorm system... RacingHart 17 inch wheels, those C4 evo ones that looks so hot!... NOS, Rockford fosgate sound system... not too much, not too little.... just the right mix... now that i wouldnt mind driving...

They'll probably get Solli Philander to present the thing and get them to pimp some guy's donkie-kar.
I don't think it'll work in SA... just to many f##ked up cars... how are they gonna choose who to help?
O, just btw, on the original Xzibit-presented series, that one guy working in the shop was hilarious, he was always like: "so we make this open like this... POW!!"

Very interesting. I cant wait to see the SA version. Theres a lot of near-death hi-ace's on our roads. I imagine a show along similar lines called pimp-my-taxi.....Now that would be a killer show...
