That's the dumbest thing I've seen all month.

It's not my car, I'm not paying for the work, etc ... but ... I just can't understand why someone would do that to a sports car. If you want to destroy the handling, do it to a sedan. YMMV

Nice contact patch :rolleyes:

The exposed rim is perfect for grinding those curbs, too :ugh2:

These cars just keep getting cheaper, huh?

Dear Santa, I would like nothing this year for Xmas but for this fool to be a member here and come in to defend this partial birth abortion of a build.

He's being flamed on Facebook about it, and has a lot of supporters too saying all sorts of idiotic "It's not your car" "It's unique" blah blah blah...

This looks more like BAG DRAGGERS, not BAG RIDERS. Brutal!!! It's a shame how some people can fook up such a nice car.

It took me a solid minute to convince myself it wasn't on stands with wheels just leaning against it.

I am all for the "Its your car, do what you want with it" sentiment... but I have a hard time empathizing with this kind of choice. Am I that old already?

Somewhere, there is a tree. And this tree spends all of its time producing oxygen so the owner of this car can breathe. He owes that tree an apology.

Lol at the most aggressive part. What does that even mean?

I don't think age has much to do with it. Forty years ago, we would jack up the back of a pony car for that quarter-miler look. It degraded handling, but most Mustangs/Camaros/Chargers/etc didn't handle worth a damn to start with. :) The 370Z is one of the better (if not the best) handling cars I've driven. Just seems a shame to ruin that.

And it goes beyond just good handling - it's unsafe. I'm surprised that one can legally run a setup like that on the street. Or is that meant to be a show car?

The older I get, the more function-over-form I become. Ie, carbon-fiber components are good; carbon-fiber overlays, not so much.

Cars like that 370 above get towed in my area
