Buy an expensive Lorinser bodykit, and then ruin it with a ricer-style drop... Why not going with what Lorinser suggests, including the rims AND the ride height. That's a part of their design.

Because it looks better, wouldn't you say? And if it gets scratched..so what? It would only be on the bottom, and if it is visible..just repaint it!

Hey VRsik

You beat me too it, thanx for posting my car.

I chose to put Japanese wheels and a big drop and then all of a suden it's riced out. From here on anyone with a negative comment if you want to insult me you have to post a pic of your car so I can see who the comments come from. Cause I don't need to hear it from a guy with a stock C-class. I chose to build it the way I like it.

Blah blah blah

I'm the one who took the photos. The owner of this car is known in thoughout the city for building some of the nicest cars that are big attention getters. I don't see the fun in driving a car that is invisible but if that's your taste go for it.

I think the name "Montreal Racing" is a little deceiving; no race cars, well ones that want to be somewhat competitive are lowered to the point where their fenders completely cover the top of the tire. I assume that Montreal Racing applies to street racing due to this.



Aside from being lowered... nice car .

What's with this pattern of slammed C240s? Predominently C240s? With window stickers that say "HaterLife," it sounds like you expect the reaction you get...

Be kind with your remarks. Everyone is entitled to an opinion. Suggest that I suck anything, as you did with vadim, and I'll blast this thread to oblivion.

And just to be clear, you don't "build" a car, you alter it. Mercedes-Benz builds cars. And this is how they "build" them...

I was just about to say that! Mercedes-Benz built your vehicle, all you did was change the wheel, slap a body kit on it, and dropped it. That isn't building a car, that is slightly modifying it.

The Slack, about the stickers. That is what ricers do! They put a ton of small stickers on their car to get that race car look.

I actually complemented your car, no need for hostility.

I'm perfectly happy with the OEM look. I admire the design of MB cars. Slamming any car is tasteless, very ghetto, if you want to know my opinion. If you bring it up for judgement, be prepared to hear all kinds of comments, this is a free and open forum.

umm... i'm not a fan of slammed cars either. It takes the functionality out of the car. You say that you're "montreal racing"... give me a break. You can't race in that. If all you''ve done is dropped it. It probably handles like crap now with those heavy rims.

I do however like the body kit. That looks good.



ps. she'll clean up against the montreal racer.

do you have those adjustable shocks? hopefully you won't get a lot of damage on the bottom of the car. Crome and WAY too low doesn't do well on a German. it is not going to make your car a custom BelAir lowrider that is worth 150K US dollar.

i do like the bodykit and the way front end looks though. the rear is just way too low.

btw here is my STOCK C-class. try to out run me first otherwise i can't hear your "blah blah blah"
