Default Want to be in a video game commercial?

I' need 2-3 cars for a shoot tomorrow (Tuesday, July 10th,2007) in downtown LA for a commercial for the upcoming Juiced2: Hot Import NIghts video game. I got room for 2 maybe 3 cars. (David, I already tried calling you but u didn't pick up so hence this post - you snooze you lose! )

car MUST be well modified. if anyone is interested you can email me at thanh.phan@apg-media.com and include 1-2 pictures of your entire exterior of the car.

I need your email by 1pm tomorrow. I know its hella last minute but it is what it is..... You MUST make sure you're car will be available from 7pm Tuesday to 5am Wednesday morning. The shooting will take place w/ about 10 other cars. We're looking for busy and also clean cars.

and seriously, if your stock.... don't even bother.

This coming from a guy who almost lost control of his car because all the torque increase he felt from installing a down pipe on a n/a car (which took 8 hrs to install. )

If conversions aren't your thing then oh well, let ppl be and do what they want to do. Just build whatever you like and don't mind other ppl's business. General statements like this make me laugh and then they also dissapoint me at the same time.

I bet you're probably a fan of Smokey Nagata also.... don't worry, I am too. There's a sense of irony in it all which is funny to me. One day you'll get it hopefully.

and no, I dont drive a civic w/ M3 tail lights.

dude, i have no idea what you are talking about except that it did in fact take
me way too long the first time i installed test pipes. although i don't remember how long exactly, that was like 4 years ago...
