This is one of the most common stickers I have come across in Chennai. Looks better if stuck on the tailgate than where it is in above picture. Initially, it was an eye-catcher but more of an eye sore now with too many people going in for it.

Hey Folks ,

In between a minie meet , we (me, speedzak, aha)happened to have come across this one . Its called Toyota Ammavoo ! ITs a complete inhouse modification by an unknown firm for million $ . Like Pininfarina did the P4/5, this too was designed to very minute detail as per the customer's taste , with design inputs from DC too .
Engine mod
Done by eicher , you can see the eicher logo stuck on the rear bumpers . It has a modified intake coolers and the mesh over the bonnet helps in sucking more oxygen for even better combustion
Body mod
The owner was very particular about the body shape and hence nothing was done to change that . NEverthless the whole body was restickered like a CLK Gtr . YOu can see almost 6 Toyota logos when viewed from rear three quarters .
Wheels
Believe me I thought BBS , Enkei and OZ were the best in the business but after seeing this everything changed , even LAmbo's where having a plane jane look about it compared to this , Inticately designed to minute detailing , in one word awesome .

Inshort I was

, Zakkie was running around the place searching for a hockey stick to thrash the owner . But one thing stays true , Its a very exclusive attempt but u need lot of guts to see this . Never knew Innova can me made into Ammavo !

Here are the pics of Toyota Ammavoo !

Kinda looks like a publicity vehicle for some mod shop...

Like Motor plaza in tirvandrum has an innova with loads of publicity stickering, and a huge huge ICE for publicity...

This is called "Publicity" ????

This is more like your self-respect committing hara-kiri in public.

We should invite him for a TBHP drive through Valpparai and 'arrange' for him to take a tumble down those ghats.

suman · 9th January 2007, 12:18

Do these pics qualify for this thread? This is a "Hyundai-Porsche-Elantra-Boxster" that we spotted at our recent TBHP meet in Kolkata

Don't miss the TRD sticker on it, the dude doesn't want to leave anything out!

@maxbhp: Beautiful. Simply beautiful. The understated elegance of the lines, combined with the subtle hints of chrome, the exemplary detailing of the paintwork & the high performance engine mods... It's just perfection!

Look at that beautiful alloy wheel - not one single manufacturer today uses the the traditional string-tie method for securing it to the wheel. Even the almost invisible air intake on the bonnet... Just perfect!

I don't blame Zak for wanting to chase the owner with a hockey stick... Insane jealousy makes some people act that way...

@suman: Why have you placed the superb Hyundai Elantra in this section? What's wrong with it? Please don't display your ignorance about global vehicle collaborations here.

The Hyundai Elantra has been jointly developed by Porsche & Ferrari, as is evident by simply looking at the snaps of the vehicle you've posted.

It runs the engine of a Ferrari 288 GTO (detuned & quietened down for India) mounted transversely & driving the front wheels. Due to the greatness of Ferrari engineering, a slight change in the intake manifold allows it to run on diesel, naptha or kerosene, instead of the original petrol, hence the CRUDe moniker. The entire assembly resides on a stretched Porsche 928 floorpan. Hyundai does some of the special subtle badging & also supplies the wheelcaps & wheel bolts. Some rumours suggest that the interiors were done by Rolls Royce, though these are unsubstantiated.

The TRD & other stickers have been just put there by the fool owner who doesn't know what he's been driving.
