Just watched the special car edition... and all I can think of is "why?"
one said they had the ultimate system ... a kicker amp and a L7, or another spent $20k for 3 audiobaun amps and 3 audiobaun subs, or an escalade with a 10" in a box that a 12 year old could build... I was hoping to see so really nice stuff, but they have the same stuff that every John Doe has... nothing unique
why spend that much money on awesome cars and put mediocre audio equipment in it... not saying that the equipment is bad, but go crazy and put some really nice equipment in there...
because if some dumb rapper or football player comes in to your shop and says "yo, sup, g I need to axe you a qweston, Gots me a 05 Enzo, I needs 3 12's wiff da flames on em, Holla! yo, I gots like 20 gs for it, sup."
then the dealer says " man, I can hook it up with some rainbows and RE's and it will be slick. OG rapper " Naw man, i gots ta hav da flames homie, Holla!"
Dealer "you got it buddy, I need keys and a deposit"
ten minutes later- dealer "yeah, lotus dealer, I need to order a new lotus. I just had some dumb rapper come in and buy a $2500 system for $20000. I need to blow some cash."
Yeah, they are that stupid, believe me, I have sold to enough guys going in to pro sports. they get that cash and blow it on stupid shit. not all of them are like that, no stereotypes here. That was an exageration of a guy who went pro I sold to a few years ago. then there's the drug dealers. I had a kid come in, graduating form Oklahoma State University in 2 months. he sold drug s on the side ( I wasn't sure at the time) he was all " sup homie g, needs me some tvs bro. got 5gs. Put em in my explowa." so we did. flip out in dash, 2 in the visors, to flip downs in the back. we also put in 2 15"s and a couple amps. it slammed. he graduated. 2 weeks later his "friend" shanked him 7 times, shot him twice, left him for dead in an abandoned farm house, along with the supplier. ran off to mexico, never found him.
Rich people dont really care what they have...as long as it looks good. At least that's what i have noticed watching MTV Cribs.
Im sure there are a "few" rich people that have done their research, but not many.
Most rappers/pro players just want a loud system that looks good. So they put like 4 audiobahns and a few amps and they are happy. But w/e...its not my money.

It's pretty sad that alot of the members of this forum have better systems then most rich rappers/celebs.

I used to get a lot of dealers and players for the washington redskins (back when they were big in tthe 90s with Riggins and such) and they would literally bring in a car or two, drop off the keys, say "set it up/ I'll be back in a week for it." and walk out.
that's how it goes.. you hand em the bill later, they hand you cash or a check and that's that.
Justin-
Don't take offence to that. itwas not racist by any means, only racist if you think that way. It was, however, stereotypical of most of the kids that live that lifestyle these days, no matter race nor creed, so please don't judge that post as if I was serious. How many punk kids do you know who talk that? I can think of about 100,000. I think most people saw it as is was, a joke, poking some fizzle at the shizzle. so rizzzaizze up izzoff my nizzzuts. its a joke. I was dork in high school, I've earned the right to make fun of goofy-ass kids who talk like that, cause I was one of em back in tha day foo.
