Festiva in a national magazine; Part 2

[deathegg]

Well, in the Jan '10 Car and Driver (the 10 best issue), there is a Festy on P.76. The headline is something like "owners think it's a race car", and shows some other small cars with huge spoilers, etc. The Festy is owned by a Steve Keppler, and has a very ugly, very large hood scoop, and about a million decals plastered over the sides. Not pretty.

I thought someone said it was Micah Dehn? Also, that is kinda bad mouthing a fellow stiva owners car. If it is someone from here, they may be offended by the above comments. Just my .02, I just know the rule says not to put someones car down.

This is a different Festy in the magazine mentioned and a different owner. There is not a rule that I know of about putting down a car. If they are here and offended they can speak up.

Yep thats true. We all have different tastes and if I dont like something someones done with their car Im going to let em know it. But I always say its your ride, do whatever you want or whatever pleases you. Dont do it for approval from a bunch of guys on a forum.

just looked at it..... looks like a real nice festy if you can see past the stickers and the rediculous scoop on the hood. why oh why would you do that?

There is not a rule that I know of about putting down a car. .

Except when someone is selling a car in the FS/W forum.

Hey if all our cars were the same this hobby would be pretty boring.

Ok. That clarifys what I was talking about. I didn't know it was only in the FS forum. My bad...

[deathegg]

Yes, it doesn't look bad at all once you get past the (IMO) bad hood scoop and (again, IMO) what looks like dozens of little decals from different parts manufacturers.
