I agree, if you're going to go to the lengths of fitting a sub to your car, why would you fit a 15" kicker?
2 x 8"/10" vibes would still be afforable and would give much better bass response

Yeh deffo blud,
when playing deep or heavy house then the twin 10" would be much better. Looks like hes got it set up for Gangsta Rap which resonates from one
turf to the next gangs turf while not showing your colours and getting a cap in yer ass. So the quwestion WHY?

Awfully sorry, old chap; not quite getting the banter there!

I have thought about having a removable boot lid/boot insert that has a sound system in purely for entertainment when parked up etc. Nothing as
dramatic or pointless as that though. I like a nice stereo but surely thats just poorly directioned showmanship!

When it comes down to it - it's his toy and he can do what he likes with it...
I wouldn't do it (a) because any sound system is pointless in one of these cars - you just won't hear it, and (b) the speaker will get
trashed in the first shower of rain.
Oh - and if he's the sort of plonker who drives through quiet neighbourhoods with the bass turned up high then he deserves every bit of abuse
that he gets!

I'm with Blake. So he likes bass, if he uses it responsibly, so what.
The title of the thread is "The worst picture of a 7ish ever?" I don't think it looks bad at all and in fact looks
better than mine does.
There seems to be a lot of knocking of other peoples cars again lately. Maybe it's this elongated Winter weather we're having or maybe
some us just have fantastically, flawless cars and are experts who's opinion is valued by the whole world that they can afford pick on others
peoples efforts.
TimC let me just add that this isn't directed at anyone specific, I know you started the thread but it isn't a personal attack
