I was expecting more pimples on the owner, but this guy still fits the bill quite nicely.

i started laughing uncontrollably at about the R2D2 pic

bad30th 01-28-2004 05:57 PM

Thats funny as hell :lol: :lol: :lol:

I gotta say tho, I'd much rather ride around in that than one of these ricers with a wing taller than the roof and stickers for parts they dont have.....

TM875 01-28-2004 07:02 PM

Funny as hell, but seriously, imagine the amount of pure WORK that went into that thing. This guy truly loves his Star Wars. I respect someone who is not afraid to show off something that he loves (hey, I still have my Jimmy Buffett window sticker!).

Damn straight. If it makes him happy, then more power to him. I'd give him a big thumbs up if i saw him on the road.

Confederate 01-28-2004 09:20 PM

nice, I wishi could be cool like that, looks like something that should be on beaterz.com

MSD 01-28-2004 09:27 PM

I like it, but he needs to shoot whoever put on the underbody lights, especially the back one.

noblejr 01-28-2004 09:52 PM

Very well done, although some of the interior aspects are a little cheezy.

wrongfullyaccuzd 01-28-2004 10:04 PM

I'm going to fourth the That Took a Lot of Work motion. Props to that guy.

steve urkel 01-28-2004 10:37 PM

I like the look of the car, especially the door-mounted guns.

Unga 01-28-2004 11:08 PM

hahaha!
awesome! good job to that guy

vapusforever 01-29-2004 12:01 AM

HAAHAHAHHAHAAH

While the owner is quite a nerd, that is REALLY impressive. Like the movies or not, you have to appreciate the hard work that went into the building of the truely amazing car/xwing

pocon1 01-29-2004 02:14 AM

The car looks pretty good, I love the extra wires for the transmission shifter.

mr_mcrafe 01-29-2004 02:29 AM

ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. that guy has no shame. ahahahahahahahahaha. good on him for doing a good job but ahahahahahaha wtf r2d2 ahahahahaha.

nimi 01-29-2004 06:26 AM

bwhahhahahaa rotflmao :) nice work, but isn't that a bit too much??

Bill O'Rights 01-29-2004 06:53 AM

Hmmmm....now maybe if those "guns" actually worked...
*strokes chin pensively*

HunterDevourer 01-29-2004 07:11 AM

I wonder what the car would look like after a bad crash..."RED LEADER I'M HIT, GOING DOWN GOING DOWN" *CRASH*

ROFL. Use the force Luke.

God of Thunder 01-29-2004 07:47 AM

I gotta admit, that is pretty cool. A lot of work was put into that and he did a great job.

Going to the site that JStrider put up though got me bummed out though. Some of the other vehicles in there were really lame. I hate when some geek slaps a few stickers on a car or just throws come model paint onto it and trys to pass it off as a good job.

merkerguitars 01-29-2004 08:16 AM

Thats actually very nicely done. Gotta admit you don't see those all the time.

~springrain 01-29-2004 08:23 AM

that is great! :)

shakran 01-29-2004 09:06 AM

NICE! the R2D2 is perfect. What a great use for that flattopped trunk on the del sol.

Looking at the rest of the pics on that site. . .Who the hell has enough cash to buy a whole semi truck just to support his star wars car theme?

(edit)

I wonder how he gets out. The hoses for the door mounted lasers are mounted to the body. . . does he have to get in and out Dukes of Hazzard style?

monkeysugar 01-29-2004 10:47 AM

That is very nicely done. It's not something I would do to my car, but I have to appreciate the amount of time and work that must have taken. Gotta love the R2D2 in the back. That's awesome.

jujueye 01-29-2004 12:52 PM

I wonder what his mechanic thinks when he pulls it in for an oil change....

That's hilarious. Thanks for the post!

absence_of_color 01-29-2004 07:37 PM

That poor, poor car.
One of my friends had a black del sol, and I loved driving that car. it was like an pversized go kart!!

It is just like the movies, he has a little ladder thing...

Since he seems to always have the "top down" and likely only drives in good weather, I would guess he climbs over the door and in.. Getting out could be tricky though, depending on how long his legs are.

I'm sure it would be amusing to behold. :)-

Spektr 01-31-2004 11:32 AM

It's not even manual!

acpower 01-31-2004 12:10 PM

so sad..

02-01-2004 04:07 PM

waste of money i say

Drider_it 02-02-2004 04:09 AM

hmm i hope his name is luke or wedge.. the rest died.

any ways makes me wanna make a hummer into a tie bomber and drive near him see what he does.. lol

can you imagaine.. the "fleet" going out at night and see three TIE LTD fords and a Hummer TIE bomber.. it would be on CNN in a heart beat.

Sorry but if i ever was to steal a car that would be it.. I AM a die hard SW fan to the extreme. That would by my choice ride.. but yeah i'd remove a few of the interior stuff and rework the udercarrage lights.

now the quiestion i gotta ask..

Does the car come with its own theme music?

uk_enigma 02-02-2004 02:32 PM

thats cool, but cant say there would be much resale value!! still would be good for a laugh!!

absorbentishe 02-02-2004 02:55 PM

I don't think he's going to sell it any time soon! I want one!

Gabby 02-02-2004 04:15 PM

That is freaking great.

Trekkie? You have the wrong movie there, buddy

Bigt6909 02-04-2004 05:33 PM

lol... that car rocks... it should go into production right now... man what the hell was that guy thinking

Captain Canada 02-04-2004 06:15 PM

OMG. That is hilarious!

Cordachine007 02-05-2004 12:21 AM

I want to know why to dude is where a suit?! Shouldn't a Jedi be where the cloke?! A true Jedi does not care for such things as a suit to make himself know.
