Default Best Ion Ever Made, As Shown On The COVER Of PAS Mag

If you love Saturns you have to go out and buy Performance Auto and Sound magizine. April/May issue or head over to PASMAG.COM It has the hands down best ION ever made. They are located in Canada which after reading their magizine discovered that there are more aftermarket parts made there. Thank you PAS mag.

Why do people put so many TVs in their cars? I know it's for show, but at some point it becomes... well... kinda sad. At most I could see like one per driver, and maybe a decent sized one on the inside of the trunk lid so you could open the trunk up and watch TV at a tailgate party or something. Why have more tvs than potential vehicle occupants, aside from vain showmanship?

Why have 600+ horsepower in car, when you'll never really be able to let all of it out on the open road? Because you can...

You'll probably hate me...I've got 7 TV's in my car with plans to add 5 more.

For adding TV's/Stereo systems, it's more so to get points for creative installations, rather than just a contest to see who can have the most, as headrests and visors have become the "norm".

Praticality doesn't/shouldn't always be a factor...nothing wrong at all with being "excessive" in certain areas

First of all, I don't hate anyone for anything like this, I just don't understand them sometimes. I can see the creative installation thing, I just like for the overall finished product (the car) to make sense as if it were being produced and sold, even if it is fashioned to individual tastes. I tend to favor simplicity and functionality (high horsepower I would put under functionality, but I'm not usually a fan of trailered cars).

I guess I like 3 things about car modding: creativity, learning, and a nice finished product (even if it is ever-evolving). I guess I see an excess of TV monitors as fitting only the first 2 of those. Some may disagree, and that's fine. If everyone thought alike or followed the same standards, then overall progress of technology and creativity would be hindered in the end. Sometimes the most excessive things produce the most useful things, with refinement.

I understand! I'm not a big fan of trailered cars myself; I really can't see spending all that money to make it a huge model car.

Tv's might be the ****tiest things to add to cars. First of all there more tvs than people in the car. I have a hard time watching more than one tv at once. And also what is the only thing you can watch dvds and 3 public channels. Thats a reason to spend a bunch of time and money on monitors.

i cant see adding too many tvs to a car only bc when you watch them EVERYTHING is so damn small. then you go home and watch them on a full size TV(even if it is only 20 inches) it still seems HUGE compared to the small car monitors. if your like pimp my ride tho and add a 40 inch LCD then i see that as ok, but WTF are you gonna fot a 40 inch TV in a satun sedan or even quad coupe.

hell i satisfy my monitor craving by buyin a power inverter and pluggin my laptop up to it wit the 15 inch screen. and if i put it on the top of the dash i can pretend i got a TV in the car

Best ION ever made is a toss up between the Saturn Motorsports Drag ION or the Bonneville ION Red Line.
