    Default ok, so what's up with this?

    Ok, I have 16 people who ranked my car under 5. Now I don't want to come across as cocky but seriously, my car is nicer then that. What's up with this? People ranking it low just to say they ranked ya but so ya don't do as well?

    that is silly. i have a few under 5. i dont know. it could have just been people who signed up to mess with everyone here. you know, the people who dont like stangs but want to mess with everyone that does. that is what i figured, when i saw mine. just a thought.

    the vast majority of the rankings I give out are from 6-9

    It's hard to get a 9 from me and it's very hard to get a 10. I'll give a low ranking to someone with no pictures but I'll leave a note that says I'll happily re-rank them if they let me know about any pictures.

    I wouldn't give myself a 10, either 8 or 9. If I had a built motor, some deep dish wheels, tint, and the paint work that I have planned done then I'd say my car would be a 10.

    This info your refering to, is that the stats on your car recieving those ranks or what you gave out because I'm curious as well. I don't think I gave out 9 ranks of 5 or less to anyone if I'm not mistaken. If this is what my car recieved than it's true what I have been told about people.... they are haters which =jealousy so and than of coarse

    I just checked my ranks and I have been ranked 610 times and I have 61 under 5 rankings. That is silly. The strange thing is is that that the more money I spend to improve my stang the more 5 and belows I get. The number is increasing instead of decreading. I have spent so much money on my mustang recently and should not be getting below a 6, she is looking pretty good. But at least my stang is getting ranked.

    All stock stangs get a 5 from me. Any mods I like get more.

    Any mods done I dont like get lower.

    I dont think ive given out anything below a 5.

    Only cars I give 10s to are the ones that you dont see everyday.

    Obviously ratings of 5 or less come from people who lack KNOWLEDGE,APPRECIATION
    or JUST PLAIN RESPECT of what another person can do with their cars!!!!

    I just think that voting 10s for every car defeats the purpose of the ranks.

    Why even have the ranks then? I look at the ranks as the amount of time put into the cars. The 'love' if you will. Anyone can go to the dealership and get a stang. Of course its a stang, I give you props for that. But a stock car gets a 5 from me. Its not because they are any less then the others but its because they havent put any work into their car (in mods). But then comes the point to which someone not liking the work put into the cars (bad body kit) shitty paint, etc. Its still work.

    Maybe I need to develop a new ranking system. Its just pointless to give someone a 10 just because they have a stang. lol

    Maybe different areas of the stang can be ranked: interior, exterior, audio/visual, etc. I don't know just a though about what you said. I know I have put alot of work into my stang and alot of money that should have gone to my house remolding project but I love my stang to much to have it sit there stock. You are doing a wonderful job with this site J and I love it.

    Yep, I definitely like to rank people based on the work they put into their cars. Granted, I will actually dock a point or 2 for excessive tacky or silly mods. (i.e. big aluminum wings, lime green paint, mismatched body panels, unpainted body panels, huge gawdy graphics)

    I probably annoy some people with my comments cuz I don't like to just say "great stang" on everyone. If I don't like something I'll mention it but try and be tactful about it. Everyone has different taste but I will give my opinion.

    I liked the post that J made a while back about "what a 10 rank is" To me a 10 is the ultimate stang, a car that has had quality modifications in every area. Or a pristine classic would get that from me as well.

    I looked at your car and ranked it an 8. I did this because I like the the rims, and the all around clean look to your car. Although I left room for when you do future mods to re-rank you.
