Kirsty Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 It says 'for your chance to nick it' so it seems like a competition to either ride it or own it. Unless, and I hate to say it, it's just a much cooler version of that million dollar thing Saints Row brought out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raavi Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Unless, and I hate to say it, it's just a much cooler version of that million dollar thing Saints Row brought out? Nah. Then 'nicking it' would be a really poor choice of words. – overeducated wonk who fetishises compromise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless, and I hate to say it, it's just a much cooler version of that million dollar thing Saints Row brought out? Perhaps it's GTA V's version of the Key to the City? So instead of getting a key, you get a whole car instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caiaof Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Whatever it is, I hope they do good work, I saw an episode of west coast and they painted this gals car red, They didn't sand it, the original had stress cracks in the paint and the new paint showed them because no prep work was done to the car. Just painted over it. Not saying all their work is shoddy but just saying. the problem was MTV more than WCC. you should read this http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/hfiu...mp_my_ride_ama/ basically, there's a reason the show was called Pimp My Ride and not Fix My Ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Input Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Maybe if you win some contest or something, they arrange for you to "steal/nick" it. Like, they'll have it set up so you'll get to take it from the big reveal or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlademanX Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 would be good publicity, see someone driving around with the proper logos i.E Obey or Grotti. lol People would be confused. Im sure a billionaire would come round and work with Rockstar to release some promo cars exclusive, just take the engine out of a real car and style the body accordingly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polish_Trucker Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 It says 'for your chance to nick it' so it seems like a competition to either ride it or own it. It defiantly won't be owning it.. most likely the prize would be to ride it with Dan Houser getting the wind through his hair.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volition very well represents the sublimation of the latter. Jesus, again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnero Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 (edited) Here's the base car for their custom Banshee: Kinda surprised they're not using the new Viper. Edited August 22, 2013 by DneroJohnson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canoxa Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Here's their base car for their custom Banshee: Kinda surprised they're not using the new Viper. I can't pick up any subtlety that allows me to ID the year, but I'd go as far as saying that it might be an ealy naughties Viper. This is is wishful thinking, of course, but I can't even imagine driving the Banshee I drove endlessly in GTA III... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarrinPA Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Now this is good marketing! I hope that whoever gets the car doesn't get car-jacked, although it would be hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammerchuk Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 The Viper WCC used for this project was 2006 SRT-10 Coupe. (You can tell by the hood in this case, as this was the only year the SRT-10 Coupe used this style hood. '08-'10 was more aggressive looking with larger vents. Anyways, to save you all from wondering what this project looks like, here's a pic I was told these rims won't be staying on the car, I can only hope that is the case as the fitment is horrible!

suicidehummer Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Holy... Oh my... I'm speechless. This is the coolest idea ever. I will do whatever it takes to win this, even if I have to brand my ass with a GTAV logo. I love you R*! I knew it would be a second gen Viper though, because the new one just came out. They're going for top dollar right now and will be until demand slows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sup3rman Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 That is really spot on indeed, especially when you look the comparsion pic: As i said earlier, the wheels have to be much larger to be an exact replica. As we can see from the pic i was right. They really have to put either very wide tires or lengthen the back axle. Only thing that bothers me here is that the ass or back end looks a bit too long.
