Am I worthy of August TSX of the month?

Now, I am going to come right out and state the following:

1. No, I do not have a single Mugen baller part on my car
2. No, I do not have a Supercharger or Turbo
3. No, it's not super slammed or on air ride

However, what I do have are combination of various rare mods which I spent a lot of time sourcing over the past year from all over the world. The end result, at least what I would like to think is a very clean and unique NBP TSX even amongst the great number of highly modded TSX in Toronto area (with many being past TSX of the month winner).

I know my mod tatste may be a bit on the conservative side for a typical TSX of the month nominee but I hope we can make it a back to back Canadian TSX win after Cypher's well deserved win in July!

Thanks in advance for everyone's support!

YES you are absolutely worthy, but it's a tough race with Ben and RE53LU this month. I remember so many months when we couldn't pay someone to run for TOTM. I'm liking this competition.

BTW the intersection lights are a nice touch :thumbsup:
Thanks...I don't know how RE53LU feels but there is really no pint for me to run for the TOTM award anymore with Big Ben entering the ring.

What's not to like about his car! His car is in a different league.

Perhaps I should just get the poll deleted now but another part of me is saying just let it ride for the exposure factor. It's always nice to receive kind comments from members like yourself whether I win anything or not.

Voted YES.. even though im a competitor.... hehe love your wheels.. Good Luck =)
ha ha ha...thanks for that! It's funnt because when I started working on my post, there was no one even running. By the time I finished, you were in the running!

With the new super aggressive set up, your car is looking mint! I have a feeling that you have an edge on me right out of the box already as my car is just a glorified grocery getter which I have to keep driveable for my wife with 2 kids i the back!

Good luck to you too! Oh, if I told you I was an Indonesian, will you back out again?:laugh: I do know Cypher personally...:)
