This new season/new garage is fucking HORRIBLE.

I used to enjoy seeing what the guys at West Coast Customs would do, but this new garage, "GAS", is fucking lame. Come on? Crop circles and shit on a guy's car?

Exactly. At least WCC was a real place, and the guys who worked there were believeable.

Now, at GAS, these guys all seem EXTREMELY scripted. You have Luis (Ish?), the dude with the 6-inch spikes, your token white guys - the paint man, and the "Project Head" who pretends to know NOTHING about cars, and Mad Mike, the crazy electrician.

It's fucking dumb.

You joke, but thats basically what it is. They are all shitty cars which are still fucking garbage after being 'Pimped'

I'd imagine so. I mean, there ARE nice British cars, but if they're nice, they don't make Pimp My Ride.

West Coast stopped doin the show cause it was giving their company a bad-mtv image, totally understandable, although those guys were totally scripted as well with cheesy lines..

The thing about the show I don't get is that they make the cars look really good, but they don't do any work under the hood most of the time, the cars probably broke down soon after filming
