    cars on mtv cribs

    haha so i was watching a few episodes of that show cribs earlier and whenever they would go out to the cars they would get all these crazy angled shots of the cars and it kind of hurt my eyes because they were all swirled up! ive noticed this on a few episodes of cribs. does this bother anyone else? lol. i mean if you can afford to buy expensive cars i think you should at least be able to afford a decent car detailer!!

    Go to a bookstore and look at the Dub/Celebrity car magazines, whatever the heck their called lol, cars look like they were washed with brissle pads. MTV Cribs annoys me, like Bow Wow saying "this is my 360 Modena, all you Porsches, Vipers, Corvettes etc don't wanna step to this in a race" lmao, 360 will get stomped on. Or the guys who are like "this is my Diablo and it cost 500K" haha, just a regular stock Diablo not even an SE or rarer edition, somebody over paid about 3 times as much lol.

    I looked at some car magazines in Borders today, and I remember seeing this black Corvette with swirls, BOOOOO!!! Oh well, not everyone is educated. I think detailing is an underground thing

    If you will take a look next time you drive down the road you will notice 80% of the cars of the road has swirls. They just havent found their way to the Autogeek yet! Its our job to help these poor cars to find a swirl free life!

    what you fail to realize is most of these cars are high dollar leases, not owned. We use to do it, high dollar leases with big balloon payments so you could change cars quickly and not take on a significant amount of your equity.

    I do have a feeling about the cars being leased!

    I entered a Jaguar Concours last September and I was appalled at the amount of swirls I saw in the classic show cars that people brought in on trailers.
