Those poor trucks. Someone stole their springs.

There on air bags so they can have a normal ride height.

What a waste of trucks except the first picture.

How so? You can still put things in the box, Pull trailers.

you know what they say about guys and lowriders right?

No.. What?

In terms of a realistic dream car, I already have mine.


Why in the world, someone would want their car/truck to drag the ground is beyond me. :p

Personal taste

I don't know that a Del Sol would be a great car, I mean really lets face it, its a Civic. For a first car sure, but if you want something that you can race, look into so Eclipses, and some older WRX's and STi's (depending on how much you can spend) and if you really want a sick first car, get a 240sx, they can be found for pretty cheap, and damn they can fly, and lets not forget about getting sideways.

I actually owned one very much like this:

I've driven ones just like these two also. That's me on top of the cc's hatch. The acceleration sucks but they can turn on a dime:

I've seen a lot of built honda B series and more specifically K series engines do some fun things ;) (apart from fwd getting "side ways" :D )
but that and a good suspension setup can make for a really nice afternoon

As for a car that is actually being produced, it has to be the Maybach 57

It's pretty obvious the kinds of cars I'm into by the examples above, here is the car I currently drive;

Can someone explain me, how does a car like those move?

The truck are on air bags. The truck will have an onboard air compressor and air tank. You can adjust the height at which you want to drive. You can't steer when the truck is that low because the tire will rub on the fenders.

They can have upwards of 15 inches of suspension lift.

Well I would say the odd one out there is the Trailblazer.. I guess I can understand why, but in a list of super cars, it just seems... silly.

:eek: Understandable, when I was car shopping, I test drove one and it was quite the SUV and I really wanted it. Instead I bought a malibu...sorta regretting it..
