Kev, my vocabulary is extensive and I'm quite competent at using it. That car is ghetto-fabulous if I've ever seen one, LOL. Do you not think they have ghettos in Sweden that like to bang hip hop music and roll on dubs? 
They surely do. Wherever that car is, its ghettolicious.

Aside from verbage usage kidding, I don't really see that car as being overdone or too flashy or having a bunch of unnessecary unsightly ornamated mods. Personally, I would not do so much to my own car but I would be dissappointed going to a custom tuner car show and all the cars where bone stock or boring.
The wheels are performance styled and not just 'bling bling' Hip-Hop unnecessary styles like Davins, Arelli, Kronix or Lexani etc. wheels. The paint is a nice single color without unnecessary graphics, flames or stripes. I don't see unnecessary chrome everywhere or tricked out body panels beside flared fenders to use the wider than normal rims. The interior is single color with no hint of fur or crazy colors leather. I think it is modded well for a custom car and probably not a daily driver but a show car.

The chrome rims may be 'styled' but they're still pimped out looking, not classy is my point. The front bumper valance looks like a brabus rice kit. Oh well, it comes down to a matter of personal opinion. I'd laugh if I saw that car on the road and probably shake my head at them. But thats just me

Ignorance, Ignorance,Ignorance...The word "ghetto" actually derives from the name of an area of Venice,Italy, where Venice's foundries were located. In Venetian dialect these were known as "geto" workshops - from the verb "gettare", "to cast". I see nothing wrong with the car. As a matter of fact I think it's Banging 'G'. I want to hook my car up like that. Let's all remember the saying about OPINIONS:" Opinions are like ******** everybody has one and they all stink.
