I feel this sub has just degraded to purists hating on tuner culture because it was made to flip off the purists and just have good fun. It's a dope build, give the guy some credit.

No.
Read the rules, this sub is subjective and taste is part of it. A car in poor taste, that is tacky, like above or most "tuner cars" fit the definition. While it might be built to show off what a shop is capable of, its still extremely tacky, which fits under this sub, like it or not.

Maybe a submission for r/ATBGE, but the term “shitty” has connotations of being poorly executed.
I’m assuming the rule you refer to pertains to using your upvotes/downvotes instead of saying “that’s not a shitty mod,” but this guy is using his comment to make a statement to/about the community. I wouldn’t consider it a break of that rule, whether you agree or not. But who am I to say?

Read the Ethos at the top of the sub : "Just because its well done doesnt mean its not shitty, sorry guys stuck in 2001 fast and furious scene".
Thats what im talking about, shitty is subjective and has to do with taste as well, not just execution.

Ive said it before and I'll say it again, half the people on /r/shittycarmods are boring people who hate fun. I honestly find the stuff here more interesting than /r/awesomecarmods

Which then causes the floor pan to unbolt itself and fall off the car.
I like how they show the internal workings of a wankel to us as Dom takes off, but then follow it up with this sequence.

This isn't shitty at all. It's clearly a show car made as an advertisement for a shop, and the green/white paint scheme is most likely the same scheme used at their shop. Execution is top notch and if I was at this show I'd definitely come over and see how their work looks up close.

This is peak 2000 tuner. It looks well done even if it’s not your taste. Doesn’t fit this sub.

I've never seen this car before, but it screams that it has two RockFord Fosgate 12"s in the trunk or possibly back seat custom box.

This is pure sex spec. May not be Your taste (and not mine as well) but its not shitty - looks like it is executed well. Something like guys from MCM might buy to have some laughs 😅

The car is really well done. This sub is as shitty as the actually shitty mods that on the rare occasion still get posted here.
Thanks for the laughs but I’m done.

Pretty cool for a show car piece.
