    Its their cars they can do whatever they want with them, but don't confuse celebrity or fame with good judgement or taste. 95% will be bankrupt in 10 years.

    I recall Vanilla Ice bragging about his $400,000 Gemballa Porsche, he drives a $1000 beater now.

    ....the list just goes on and on with stuff. But I believe 9 ONE 1 said it perfect seeing what they have drives me to want to do better. My friends think im way to into status and I am I will admit it. But me being into status drives me harder to be successful.

    Also I see auraraptor is saying I would not put 22's on a f car or anything like that. I would do something to a suv or a benz thow.

    Now I disagree with a REAL suv on this regard as well...if you want an SUV...USE it. I took my 03 Range offroading 3 days after buying it. I can't take it if I spinner-ize it...

    never satisfied I guess. :)

    MTV Cribs is like a car wreck, you don't WANT to watch it you HAVE to watch it.

    I watch almost zero TV. The two shows that I will make a point to watch is CRIBS and The Sopranos. Sometimes I watch CNN or MSNBC.

    It is ridiculous what some of them do with cars, or renting a house on Star Island for $20K+ per month.

    However- I really do admire the wealth and status that these persons have attained. It shows that wealth is not a result of environment, as many of the artists/athletes featured grew up in tha 'hood. It shows that wealth is the result of VERY hard work, whether thats putting in 12 hour days at the studio/on the set/in the gym.

    Remember, to become wealthy you must work harder on yourself than you do on your job. Everyone works 40 hours a week, its the hours you work beyond 40 that will make you rich.

    For me it's just the BLING factor lol :) When I had my wheels made for me in Germany I took one of the most famous racing wheels the BBS RS had it custom made for me by polishing the whole wheel, widening them, then having the bolts gold plated in 24kt. lol :) Its just fun to dress the car up!
