WHOH...that is ugly :eek:
CBoldman 03-15-2002 03:46 PM

Smart idea to put the clock in but it looks like the dash on a vw bug.
Judah 03-15-2002 03:47 PM

talk about a sleeper design:lol:

Thing is friggin huge.

isn't that for a boat? :p
Imprezer 03-15-2002 04:38 PM

What this is can be very easily explained. They want gauges. I understand that. But they also chose to keep the factory clock. Why? So that they will not miss the next tea-time. ;)

Thank you, thank you very much. ;)

Perhaps it's based on the symmetry of their dental work ;)

Wow a dash scoop with gauges.

Ewwwwww!!! That gauge pod looks nasty! Dispose of it please, hehe.
KenG 03-16-2002 03:33 AM

Speaking as a Brit, may I say we think it is ugly too. Oh, we have excellent dentists, drink far more coffee than tea and there is no such as thing these days as tea time!

We have a lot of style - look at the Aston Martin, TVR, Jaguar, etc.

Haha, even the Imprezident is taking shots at the British. :lol:
Imprezer 03-16-2002 12:15 PM

Hehe, couldn't resist.

After all, Brits were the only nation to have a war plane in the begining of WWII that was made out of wood. WOOD?!?!?! LOL
KenG 03-16-2002 03:02 PM

Let me see, what was the fastest plane in the European arena before the jet (we Brits had a jet at the end of WWII - did the US?), ah yes the Mosquito. What was it made of - Wood and canvas.

The Lysander was the first true STOL plane, used to deliver agents behind enemy lines.

Just because we have a better selection of Scoobies than you there is no need to get so personal!


How many of you have actually been to the UK, I bet less than my numerous trips to the States? Be very careful of going down the anti-British route my friend.

yuck....good idea, poorly executed. like the idea of the gauges and the clock, but its hideous :o

[QUOTE]Aston Martin, TVR, Jaguar, etc. [/QUOTE]

The Aston Martin, Jaguar are all made by Ford. (same with Land Rover too--the new one has the BMW X-5 engine in it though)
KenG 03-16-2002 05:13 PM

Speaking for myself. as I don't catagorise a whole nation to be inflicted with any trait, I actually do have a very good sense of humor. This thread was getting far too political for my liking and had totally lost the plot!

This is British and actually has style:

It still isn't my taste, I prefer an original STI pack:

Whatever revs your engine I suppose.

KenG 03-16-2002 05:16 PM

Well-armed, all designed in the UK though, just like all F1 cars and Champ cars, 90% of WRC cars, etc. It was a comment on design, not ownership.

well_armed 03-16-2002 10:40 PM

I know, just thought that I would throw in a pointless comment, just bored that's all.

Its good those cars are designed elsewhere, they would have body cladding probably.:D
Street2.5RS 03-17-2002 02:12 PM

I'd just like to throw in that I love british comedy, they are way funny!
STiShawn 03-18-2002 10:38 AM

actually, the germans had an all wood twin engine interceptor later in the war made by Focke Wulf. Although the resins the used in lamination were prone to delamination...
The Dehaviland Mosquito was another all wood aircraft in world war 2 that was very succesfull and quite fast...

I like this one too, but i have to agree with you, i still havent found one that i like better than the STi gauge pod
hoodwho 03-19-2002 02:01 AM

ugh....
In2Deep 03-19-2002 02:38 AM

The frankenstein pod is fugly, but the Defi & the STi are yummy! :p
Conduit 03-19-2002 07:47 PM

The Defi is the STI.
In2Deep 03-19-2002 08:27 PM

It doesn't look that way in the pictures above. It looks as though the Defi is more recessed than the pic below it. Either way it/they look(s) good.
topcover 03-19-2002 10:52 PM

Geez! How tall do you have to be to see over that damn thing?! Looks like someone slapped their wheel well liner over their gauges. :eek:
kaffeene1 03-20-2002 12:33 AM
