http://www.clublexus.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=112856

Just read the start of the article....

700hp VIP drifter. They HAD to label it 'vip'.... I'm telling you, this is what is going to eventually kill this scene....:pat::signdammit::rules::saiyancrunks:

It's fine if they leave it at a badass drift car or whatever, but DON'T mix the styles...come on now...tossing VIP around like it's 'jdm'....and then we're gonna get another wave of people calling everything vip..bleh. /rant.

Well, that's about the closest to the truth compared to the past of articles saying this or that was vip. I mean at least it's a 4 door luxury car this time! Hahaha...

No, we need to start a propaganda campaign, and roll around in our vip cars, with masks on shouting out articles about vip style, and what it's really about. all out of the sun roof.

Well, since the JZS161 is a "VIP Platform", they arent spreading mis-truths... its is a 'vip' drifter

vip is the platform... You can style it any way you like and it will still be a 'vip car'. You can have drift style vip cars, dub style vip cars... Or just vip style vip cars.

I dont see anything wrong with that article.

Also Dom, it's a V300, which they said it's a 'swapped aristo'.....ITS THE STOCK MOTOR with turbo upgrades, and a jzx110 transmission swap ?....media apparently doesn't know crap when it comes to doing research on the car....Also, since when is there an autoluxury vip drift? I've never heard of it, I don't see the vip guys going out and doing it, and I thought we clarified that there is not real such thing as 'gt vip' and 'vip drift' and all that other crap that people keep mixing into 'vip style'. The only other time i've seen something, that wasn't a vip car meet, was that group of pictures, of IIRC only Aristos, drag racing.

Yes, the car is clean.


The article is spewing out misinformation.

Just you wait....another wave of people trying to take their 240's and other drift cars, and telling us how they are going to vip them out.

i don't see whats wrong with this, i've seen a ton of aristos in vipcar that look just like this. as a matter of fact, the drift guys should be the ones getting mad as i doubt this car has ever been sideways. if it has then vip drifter is a fitting title.

vip is an adjective, drift is a verb.
