      Joel, what track were you at?
      Sonoma. So many cool events there and it's such a short drive from the city. I'm always looking for an excuse to get the Corvair out of the garage.

        Cant really tell for sure, but they look like smoked Hella US ellips. I see the hella logo at the bottom. I think the excess photo editing is adding reflections to them that make them seem special.

                  Awesome as well. That orange m3 is on bags

                  What do you reckon the best way to create enemies is? Declare yourself a superhero? Push over a baby whilst flipping the bird at an OAP? I’m sure there are a million ways to take yourself off people’s Christmas card list pretty quickly, but I have to wonder if modifying your car should really be …

                    I partially agree with grandpa Joel here, but since that m3 is on bags it doesn't bother me as much. But all these tards on static coils that can't even turn are silly.

                      If someone wore shoes that they had to telescope to be able to move in them, I'd call those shoes stupid too.

                      Airbags for useage like that is the equivalent of going to a party and seeing girls in barefeet since their shoes are too dumb to be able to walk in.

                        Yeah, its something weird going on. It almost looks like some kind of LED or something but its gotta be reflections

                          Wat. That's how the e55's are designed from BBS.

                          I don't get the analogy either. Whatever, to each his own.

                            Girls often wear heels to a party that are so unwearable that you'll see them on the dancefloor sans shoes at all. Those are failures at their single most important purpose.

                            A car that can't move unless you have to modify it is a failure at its single most important purpose.

                            It's not a statement regarding the look of something, it's what the thing is. It's a high performance car, and one that can't very well car.

                            The look of the wheels is opinion, sure, you can love them and I can hate them. But the utility of that car (mainly its suspension) is inarguably and intrinsically impaired.

                              I'll have have to disagree with you on that. The suspension on that that car is incredibly high tech. The idea of an extremely low car that has the sole intention of being low is counterproductive on a car of this caliber, I'll agree. That orange M3 however, has the ability to change it's ride height at the touch of a button and be completely road ready. In fact that suspension is more versatile and overall better than most of the standard suspensions (i.e. coilovers, strut & spring combo) available.

                                This is how that car looks when the suspension isn't completely aired out.
