Rockabilly Chevy S10

I love rockabilly style cars with white wall tires and red wheels for exactly opposite reasons of my love for murdered out cars.  Where a blacked out car is menacing and beautiful, when you decide to go rockabilly style with a car you're saying 'I know this car doesn't look good, so I'll just make it look silly.' It's like Rabbit's rap in 8 mile, you can't make fun of someone if they just did it themselves.

Mazda RX-7 Murdered Out on Gunmetal Wheels

This FD RX-7, which as I have mentioned before is one of my favorite cars ever, is more aggressive than I normally like.  With a heavily vented carbon fiber grill, huge wing and aggressive bumpers, this FD looks like a race car.  I know these wheels are gunmetal, but they are also gorgeous so it counts.  Also there is no one to argue with me so what I say goes.

  Car is owned by Benjay on rx7club.com, who apparently is a huge Weekend at Bernies fan.

Murdered Out RX-7 FD, LS1 Swap

The RX-7 is one of the best looking cars to come out over the last 20 years.  I'd put it up there with the 911, 350Z and any Aston Martin in terms of cars that are actually, legitimately beautiful.  These cars aren't just cool looking like a Lamborghini or a Hummer because of their breaks from tradition and what they stand for, but are really nice to look at on their own.

This RX-7, which is owned by Rice Hata on RX7club.com looks like what Darth Vader would drive if he gave a shit about style (he didn't, he was more practical, he would drive a Corvette).

Although maybe Vader would rock this RX-7, it is powered by a Corvette LS1 swap.

Murdered Out 2006 Honda Civic Si R Skunk2

Honda was the feature vehicle manufacturer for the 05 SEMA show and one of the best cars on display was this murdered out 2006 Civic SI R by Skunk 2.  The Civic is a sleeper car, no matter how many high horsepower cars there are out there.  A 1,000 hp Civic looks just like a 100 hp Civic, so you'll never know what you're lining up against.  The stealth looks of a flat black Civic Si R work perfectly with the car's sleeper status. 

The 2006 Skunk2 Civic SI R is far from rice.  It has Skunk2 pistons, camshafts, connecting rods, cam gears, forged valves, titanium valve retainers, CNC ported heads, a Hondata ECU, and custom exhaust and intake. Inside the stock Civic SI R seat is replaced with a Racaro/ Braille SPG carbon Kevlar seat. The stance on the 06 Skunk2 SI R comes from their racing springs with Moton shocks combined with Volk wheels.

Rockabilly Evolution Murdered Out in Flat Black

Sick Mitsubishi Evolution murdered out with a rockabilly theme.  I love the retro white wall tires and red wheels, but does it work on a car with the racecar angular look like an Evo?

Murdered Out AMS EVO Flat Black

 AMS EVO Murdered out in flat black.  Would obviously be much better looking without all the stickers, but since those sponsors helped them built the car you can't really fault them for advertising.

Murdered Out Nissan 350Z

 Murdered out Nissan 350Z.  I love fully blacked out cars, so this is awesome to me.  The only problem I have with the car is the asymmetrical front bumper.  I wish it had another inlet on the right side or no inlets at all, but that's just me being weird.
