Default Next car..question..

Ok once i'm healed up and get my settlement, for my next car I wanna get into the VIP scene. Right not i've narrowed it down to

Acura Legend- 93+ Sedan, V6

Infiniti Q45- 97+ Sedan, V8

Lincoln LS any year..sedan, V6/V8

which would be the best of the 3 to get? their all pretty comfortable cars and nice IMO, but which has the best potential? And whats the best size rims for VIP? I thought 22'' with a deep dish is what most use, but a lot of people told me a nice 20'' rim with enough lowering looks good. Any help is appreciated and rep'd

You need to do WAY more research into the VIP scene first.

1) Remember that if you go with a TRUE traditional VIP platform the service and Repair on them are Ass loads...

2) Legends and Lincoln's aren't VIP, they are barely VIP inspired.

3)Few, if any, VIP car uses 22" those are DUB style and Donks. Traditionally VIP wheels were 18" but have grown to 19 and 20 in the recent years. The key to VIP wheels is FITMENT.

After you do more research then decide if you want to invest that much into the VIP scene. To give you an example, I just had 2 Knock sensors and 2 O2 sensors replaced on my Q and it cost $1400 bucks from the CHEAPEST of all three estimates I got, and almost $1200 less than what the factory wanted.... G/L in your search.

my brother had a Q45. it was a decent car, wouldn't mind having one. it doesn't have to neccessarily be VIP as thats just a trend at the moment, same with how hondas were a trend, then the whole JDM thing. sooner or later, theres gonna be something else everyones going to wanna hop on. i want a luxury car, clean, with nice rims, lowered possibly, etc. whether its VIP or the equivelant with a car thats 'not vip' i could care less.
