BTW, “Z”, what is a corn-fed American?

A) The H2 is ugly, end of story. The only time I’ve seen an H2 that actually looked good was Roadsurfer Customs’ HumDeville, where they gave an H2 an Escalade front end. Unless you do something that dramatic, you’re not going to make the thing look good. The Hummer front end is nothing more than a half-assed copy of the Jeep front end.

B) I would have expected more from a supercharged 6.0L V8. Unless it’s been optimized to provide a zillion pounds foot of torque, which I doubt it has, then I think Geiger grabbed some off-the-shelf components and bolted them onto the truck. It just doesn’t seem like they gave it a solid effort.

C) The brakes. Again, this would have been an opportunity to do some stellar engineering. If you’ve got 30″ rims, why not have 25″ brakes? I figure they just grabbed some of the biggest brakes they could find, which on this thing, are probably not nearly big enough.

D) The doors. I highly suspect this is yet another random kit that Geiger was able to bolt-on to this SUV. Furthermore, I’m quite certain that most scissor door kits for SUVs really hinder vehicle access. If they wanted to do something really cool, they could have given it actual gullwing doors.

E) The rims. Initially, I thought I liked the 30″ rims. Let’s face it, about the only vehicle that can manage 30″ rims is a Hummer, so if you’re going big, this is the car on which to go big. That being said, an H2 on 30s is nothing new. They aren’t even asymmetric for two different appearances, and they don’t spin. Those two design cues might be gawdy, but if thing isn’t already gawdy, I don’t know what is.

F) The interior. From the fleeting glimpse of it that we see in a few of the images, it looks pretty bone stock. Okay, so there are some TVs and the instrument panel is a different colour. Big deal. Where are the snakeskin seats? Shark tank? 20, 80 megaton subwoofers? I think the fact that we don’t see a straight up interior shot speaks volumes about how sparse it probably is.

G) The paint. Yeah, it is a classic paint job, and it looks fairly well executed. But, it’s not a paintjob that really makes sense on a GM vehicle. Furthermore, this isn’t a very bling-ish paint job. And, as many people have pointed out, this car isn’t exactly speedy, and the paintjob doesn’t give me that illusion even for a second.

My point is that this thing isn’t going to do very well at either the racetrack or at the King of Bling competition. And, I’ve seen GeigerCars do a whole lot better than this. Other than the misguided paintjob, I really get the impression that they bolted this together in a day.

/no

And at 556 hp it’s slower to 60 than a 170 hp Sentra SE-R. Great joke though!

Lighten up a little. sheesh.

—its actually a Gulf Oil GT40 paint job from the ’60’s. And while I cant stand these stupid Hummers, especially when they try and make them similar to sports cars of the 60’s, this paint job is classic and interesting when blown up on such a large vehicle.

Turning your Ferrari-beating big-block Ford into a Hummer is downright scarey!!
