Well this is a touchy subject.
So many different aspects come into play when choosing a featured ride. From the exterior to the interior.
The types of pictures you take of your car. To the way you carry yourself on the boards.
Last one not so much, but it helps to be nice to other members.
Speaking for myself, when we start to choose a new ride. I look for cars that are "Clean". What I mean by clean is, no mismatching body kits, body lines are nice and tight, cleanliness of the work, and the amount of work done to a car. These are just a few examples. Remember the featured ride would be representing this site, so it has to stand out.
Don't get me wrong here, I'm not saying I only choose cars with 10k plus put into them. A few times I've brought up cars that only have rims and a drop. Other times I choose cars with a kit. The reason why I'd choose these cars was the way they showed up in a picture. If the car is clean, and I believe it can represent this site well in its pictures, then thats the one I choose.
Any member is eligible for featured ride. From New members, to the managment.
One tip I can give you. In your profiles you are able to upload four pictures of your car, use all four. I hate seeing only one picture, also make sure they are clear.
Good luck
