Wow, this sums up what this world has come to. Everything is extreme nowadays. It's much easier to be noticed for extreme than to actually be creative.

Same goes for music, too. Can't come up with new songs? Just take classic oldies and remix them.

As mentioned by others, I can appreciate the time and effort put into the install, but why? I guess it got media attention and maybe that's all that matters.

One question about this install... Why?

And they say BC is the province of hemp....

Unfortunately this is just another sign that many vehicles are more about bling than sound quality or being subtle.

he could have mounted a 42 inch plasma on the hood to flip up like the soundstream mini. and maybe a few monitors under the car for the drunk nights you cant make it in.

u have to be in the vehicle to see why. best in car electronics experiance i have ever had. its insane!

this is done for the same reason why any crazy installs are done, just to attract attention and gain exposure.

Bling is what the masses want for sure.
Build a really nice set of doors that look stock and sound awesome, and people walk right by, but put some glitzy paint, a few lights and monitors and it's "Oh Wow Man!!!"

the full interior has been completed, the pictures for the magazine were from back in may, since the pictures the front end conversion has been completed total engine rebuild, amplifers have doubled, rims are bigger and offcourse more tv's and audio were added.....etc.

I thought that this board was to get people involved in the canadian car audio scene and to give people a place to show what is new and has just come out, this is a private vehicle that was built for the customer and had no sponsors on it what so ever and Prolifik has had a chance to sit in the vehicle and actually understand why the place ments of items are where they are and it is a vehical that you have to see in person to enjoy

people coming on here and bashing it will not help the small market in canada grow it will just hurt it...

yes...but why?
70+ tvs...why?
PS2 and x-box...why?

IMO I see it as a huge waste of money, time, and tvs. I am not bashing hear, just stating my opinion.

Are you really interested in creating a larger market for useless tv placement?

Correct me if I am wrong people, but does anyone see that kind of vehicle and say "Wow that looks cool"?

I guess we're in the "BLING" era, I myself still prefer functionality over flash. I still am a really big fan of the "stealth" systems. I think it's a bigger challenge to hide stuff and still make it sound good, then to blatantly put it out there. Also, if I can't get 2 Hockey bags in the trunk, my vehicle is useless.
