An F1 car does not have this much camber....this looks sophomoric and ridiculous.

Where could you drive it? A piece of gravel would bottom you out.

yes, those are the obvious gibes, but look at how (relatively) proper all of the exterior body work is!!! the amount of well-executed custom work here is... impressive! (and most unusual)

update - on a closer inspection, I can see a few imperfections, like the front bumper isn't totally symmetrical, but the rear pic is pretty impressive! custom work to the fender, bumper cover, trunk lid, tail light!

I could kinda sorta be on board with the body kit - if it just had a more "normal" suspension setup. As it is though? Vomit inducing.

I do like that red though........

I think of it as the ultimate sacrifice... the driver gives up all practicality so other people can enjoy how cool (and bizarre) it looks. more like abstract art rather than a car.

I give them props for effort. I've always been a sucker for candy apple paint too. There's a stanced Honda Odyssey down the road from me, always wanted to see it actually moving to figure out whether they jack up air suspension or something so it can move without demolishing itself.

I'd give them credit for creativity...aside from that it's hideous

Perhaps part of the "abstract art" should include mounting the spare tire on top of the engine hood....(I know, I know, it doesn't have a spare tire).

Well, from that perspective one could say the spare tire IS on the hood.......

Spare tire? I believe these are effectively run-flats due to how much they're stretched.

The extreme lowering makes it look like an otherwise real nice car that is either feeling very sad, or got dropped from 20 feet in the air.
