No I would go even further and declare a good and fair punishment for everyone who owns a car- maybe 20 x w.a stick should be ok...and then a hefty fine of gold/life cattle (sorry Im already talking in post apocalypse vocabulary which most of you do not have the intelligence to comprehend)...youre all still caught up in illusionary idiocies...anyway soon you will be caught up in another sort of illusionary idiocy which you wont approve of as much as in this one.

[yeah Maya is tricky you ******* ignoramuses]
I think I know what you're talking about. I own a handful of cars that are currently being stored, and don't see the road. I don't drive, and I don't see any reason to. After years of driving recklessly, insurance is just too much to afford-- and I hate going to the suburbs anyways!! Huge suburban sprawls and a lifestyle that requires every person to be driving their auto is crazy----

2003 Camry on the every day, a 1973 Ford Bronco when the going gets tough, and I have my current project car in the garage waiting for it's head to be redone:

Is that a Datsun 240Z?

connor · Mar 2, 2009

well, part of it. it is a 1974 260z, but it does have the L24 out of a 240z in it for some reason. the PO didn't speak much english, for $350 i didn't really care. turns out better that way, they detuned the L26 for emissions.

Nice car. I'm not a fan of the wheels though.

'03 Kia Optima for me.

'03 Mercury Mountaineer for my wife or when driving the family.

Not sexy, but we paid cash for both so no car payments.

Good looking cars here guys. I used to have a 1994 Supra Turbo until I sold it towards the end of '08.

Now I drive a white '04 Navigator, but no pictures of that.

Spilotro · Mar 9, 2009

^ Awesome Supra!

2003 Mustang GT here. No pics, though.

but here's a photo:

that was taken when the car was about half an inch higher than it is right now, with about half a degree less camber in the rear than it is now. for clarification, the fronts are only doing about -4*.

the japanese call this style of tuning "vip", pronounced like "hip", not "vee-eye-pee". essentially, it's taking an expensive japanese luxury sedan and tuning it. you'll see different influences, like from yankee style cars, sporty/drift style cars, old school yakuza cars, european vw/audis, etc, but almost all vip cars share a few traits: 1. super low, 2. crazy wheel fitment, whether flush or tucked. most of the japanese vip tuners run coilovers, so most guys actually do drive that low (as do i).

here are some more (better) examples (and as you can see, my car is nowhere near the weirdness/badassness/craziness of these cars yet):

wow, i can't believe i'm talking about vip-tuning on styleforum, and sorry for the long-winded explanation!

haha, here is a few good friends of mine:
