Wow....just wow.

Extreme is in, but this is silly.

But hey, it's their car to do what they want... without my approval of course.

 

I want to say, "Its his $$ so let him do what he wishes with it." But then again, you could be a certified idiot while spending your own $$ also.

 

stupid is as stupid does

 

I am just happy that dangerous POS is not on the road where I drive.

 

Thank god he didn't get his hands on a 355

 

I've seen this a few times already on the forum, but I still can't get used to it. There is a Testarossa as well : What Makes a Car "Cool?" - Kazuki Ohashi's 1989 Ferrari Testarossa

 

If done properly (i.e. a correct lowering, without stupid camber), the 348 might have looked nice. Now it's ruined - just like all of the 'stance' idiots do to all of their cars.

The Testarossa is the same story - great fitment, great wheels - lousy execution. Any street car with more than 3-4 degrees of negative camber should be banned from being driven on the street.

Ocean City, NJ (home of H2O Fest, a big VW goon meet) has done just that - impounding the 'stanced' cars on sight.

It's simply not safe to drive a car with that much camber - it stresses every single moving part in the suspension, ruins your tires, and exaggerates every steering input to the point of being nearly un-driveable. Even the author of the 348 article noted how awful the car's ride was.

I am all about being creative and customizing one's ride - but these cars being displayed anywhere but a car show or a garage should be outlawed.

 

Looks like s#!t ********.

 

Looks like an elephant has sat on it. Hideous.

 

I would like to see him hit a speed bump at speed.

 

I love watching these guys hitting speed bumps as mentioned...........
And getting in and out of parking lots with slopes.
Where I live with the potholes, body parts would be flying in short order
I am waiting for the 3' lift kit and 44" mudders for off road use.

 

I like customs but custom work that destroys the performance capabilities are just stupid and really don't require a brain. It goes against the entire genisis of the hotrodder culture.
