      Exactly. I know it may be putting my foot in my mouth, but there is this guy(older than you'd expect, late 20's maybe?) with an alpine e30 on S|W that wasn't received so well. Why? Well besides being a pos, had teal corvette wheels, rusted hood, no springs in the front and cut rear springs. Yes, cut rear springs. On an e30.


      Go here be happy!

        So you like being stroked by a bunch of dudes from the internet.

        Edit, Upon further looking at your picture, you look like a dude who likes being stroked by dudes from the internet.

          They didn't hate it because of the cut springs. How the fuck did that work in the rear?

          No, this was in person. At Southern Wortheersee. Where the car was last year.

          I guess you guys have never had a car that people like enough to just come up and say it.


          And I though this was a picture thread

              I asked him, then before he could answer, I decided I didn't want to know. He posted a pic, I'll try to find it.

              After telling him how unsafe that was, he started insulting my swap.

                  Idk man, I thought it was stupid out of concern for your safety and others.
                  Car looked cool, but the approach to make it look cool wasn't cool.

                              Your 244 was cool, and I would have liked the 242 homo if you fixed the rust.

                                My mini (and all classic minis) have big rubber bump stops for springs from the factory. They work just fine.
