Tasteful Cars Thread

Recommended Posts

IF A MOD SEES THIS I WOULD ASK YOU TO PLEASE CHANGE THE TITLE TO

Clean Vehicles Thread

 

 

 

This thread is for people that are looking for some tasteful, down to earth car designs and or modifications. It will serve as a kind of counterweight to all those outlandish looking cars that can be found all over these forums.
What differentiates this thread from most other ones is that all vehicle classes are welcome, as long as they follow a few simple rules.

RULES:
No neon or chrome colored cars.
No excessive body mods like gigantic spoilers or splitters.
No huge modern wheels on classic cars.
No underglow on cars.

Examples:

Seems like an awful abundance of people on this forum who think just because they leave their cars looking bone stock they're superior to those who like to make their cars look their own. This seems like the kind of place for them to get their opinions validated. :rol:

 

Not saying you're one of these people, OP. Maybe you are. Maybe you just wanna look at "subdued", "clean" cars.

This is not about superiority in any way. My idea simply was to have a thread where people can show off and or discuss, as you call them "clean" looking cars. You can of course have your cars as outlandish looking as you want, but that is not the point of this thread.

the problem is that "tasteful" is a subjective opinion.

some people think that your cars look horrible and their cars are tasteful.

there is no objective definition of tasteful.

So what would be the best solution then? Have this thread renamed to "Clean Looking Cars Thread"?

 

Critique is always welcome, but I would also appreciate some suggestions and not just complaints.

All my cars are tasteful. Imo.

What a stupid assumption. I'm "one of those people" who leave my cars stock aesthetically save for the wheels when needed. I'll change the colors, plate, tint and add parts that made the car look complete or like a higher trim model but that's because I like it. Not because I wanna say "hey I'm better, all your mods are tacky" that's tacky.

Those are some great looking cars and pictures! My favourite is the Gauntlet.

I suppose "Clean Cars (Or Vehicles, if bikes, SUVs, etc are allowed) Thread" would've been more appropriate, as "Tasteful" implies anything differing from the rules you've set isn't tasteful.

 

For example, say I make a car that looks clean and falls under all the rules set, but I then put neon on it, is it no longer tasteful even if the neon compliments the car?

How is my assumption stupid? The title of the thread is literally "Tasteful Cars Thread" which would imply it's for people with good taste only.

 

I never said keeping your cars stock, or "clean" immediately means you're one of those people. You can do whatever you want with your cars, that's none of my business.

Wouldn't it be easier to just rename it?

I still think the idea behind this thread is great, which is why I would not want it to be deleted.

tfw somebody can't get their head out of their ass and realize the thread was focused on what people's own perception of taste is. Taste is subjective and nobody was arguing that. This is not the thread to debate that, obviously. Y'all run round in circles in this section alway assuming dumb ass sh*t :lol:

Taste is subjective yes. If your idea of tasteful is same as op's then post up. If it isnt then just leave the thread and move on.

From the way back of my snapmatic to now, most of my cars are... "tasteful..."

Which is mainly an opinion, but I get what you mean...

This thread fails in many ways. Most of these cars are not "tasteful" to me and people have broke your "rules". Is this really needed?

Thread doesn't have to be deleted. (Not that it's up to me, anyways.)

 

It could be like a "Show Your Cars" thread, which I think already exists, but solely for clean-looking cars. There could also be one for cars that look like they belong on the track.

 

But then you'd have 3 threads for essentially the same thing. /shrug

 

My intent was never "Wow, dude. Way to act like you're better than everyone else!" I was just critiquing it due to the choice in title. OP seems open to it, Scag seems to have gotten his ego bruised over my broad statement that wasn't directed towards anyone specifically. hmm... 🤔

 

I'd post some of mine, but Social Club isn't displaying any of my snaps, only old ones from X360. 😕

What, where?

 

Look at the pinned threads above you, the majority of cars I see have been very tastefully executed.

So basically anything that's considered a restomod. Can't be on here? You said no huge wheels on classic cars. If there allowed I got a few I will post

Might I humbly suggest the following thread title: The Official AppreciationThread For Cars With Minimal and/or Understated Aesthetic Modifications

I'm down for that, but I sadly can't change it myself.
