Default Speed Vision has lost it!

I am sitting here watching it. They come up and say next up is the "Mothers Polish Import Tour"

They start out with a NEON TYPE R!
Then they go to a SATURN!

What the hell are they thinking!?! What are these people thinking!

Its an IMPORT TOUR not a friggen domesic tour!
Though I guess putting a type R on the side of it makes it a Import!

Let me say this that the way these guys pimp out their car it sure looks like RICE after they are done!

I think it's pretty obvious that the FOX people have decided to kill it. The changing of the name to "The Speed Channel" seems to be a pretty good indicator to me that they've lost it.

I saw that too Pinky.

Were those not the most 'riced' cars you have ever seen. One segment the guy asked the kid if his car was streetable and he said, "Yeah, but its trailered"


WHO THE HELL TRAILERS A SATURN!?!?!?

I could charge one of these things brand new on my Amex. The early 90's model he had couldnt book for more than 3-4k!

I've seen two of their so-called "Import Shows" hoping to see some nice imports. I believe the first show was from Tennessee and probably saw only one non-domestic car. The hosts are import wannabes that don't know what they are talking about. That show should either be renamed or taken off the air...

I'm just now watching this. I waver between lauging hyterically and getting infuriated. The hosts, in particular Griff Allen, have NO clue what they are talking about..

btw, the Saturn has fake drilled rotors over the rear drums.

*shakes head*

Btw, I forgot to mention one of my Favorite quotes from Griff Allen from a "show" last year. They had a Fly Yellow F355 and he asked the owner (paraphrase): "So the 355 in the name that's how much it costs, right?" as in $355,000! bwahahahahaha.
