To me (for all cars) over the top means an excellant combination of modifications, while overboard describes a vehicle with nonfuctional mismatched mods.

basicly you two are useing the term as it was long, long ago, when it was a bad thing to own an imported car from Japan. Using rice to descibe all japanese vehicles faded with other other terms of the period "rad", "Awsome", "grody", as well as parachute pants and Vanilla Ice.
