Well one day you will also be able to relate concepts such as like and hate, cold and hot, maybe even wet and dry to one another the way I can.
My analogies were spot on, you chose the worst example of a "stanced" or flush fitted car and posted it as if it represents the majority.Leave a comment:

Not that I really know jack about stanced cars, but my M3 has been on these wheels/tire size/ suspension since 1992!
I think the stanced look comes from Germany as far as i know. I came over here in 1994 and that look was nothing new here. It had to do with stuffing the largest most aggressive wheels on a car, but still needing to meet the weight classification, and no tread past the fender thing directed by TÜV over here.
more pics of my car, but it is perfectly "stanced" to me. lower is almost imposible (the inner fenders are already trimmed and worked as much as possible. yes, I do not have full turning radius, but my car is not on a racetrack and handles just fine for all the speeds allowed here where I am at.


to each, his own, all things can be overdone.Leave a comment:

I like how you relate Like to Hate, seems you are askew yourself.The original post is just like someone posting a thread titled:
Why I don't like white people
OR:
Why I don't like rock music:
Pick the worst and most extreme example. I don't like that car at all, and anyone who does I would be quick to question their taste.
This is why I do like stanced cars:
Guess what else? IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE A FUCKING RACE CAR! It's and objectionable style, true, but saying you don't like it because it's not "functional" is irrelevant. That's like supporting one racing team over another because you like their livery better.
If you want a racecar, by all means go build one, but there is a place for racecars and a place for nice street cars that are fun to run about in and look good.Leave a comment:

I really love it but would never do it to my own car. Same way I love my roomates 77 regal with 24" wheels, but again would never do to my car. This e30 makes me cream like a school girl. Who's is it BTW?

Funny story, way back when I was 15 and looking for my first car I found this one on Autotrader. It was listed as a 318is for $4,000 lol. Of course, back then I didn't know shit-all about Bimmers and just thought I was insanely lucky. So I email the guy and he said he was in England on business at the moment with the car, but he'd be willing to ship it over if we send him the money through a Paypall-type website.
SURPRISE! It was a scam lol.
Here's some pics and a list of what's been done to the car by the actual owner:
He has another, absolutely insane E30 that he's working on right now:
