a little off topic....

This morning on my way into work, this guy in a white over pink Acura Legend coupe went flying past. I noticed the front air dam/spoiler was only about an inch off the ground, and the back looked like it was on jack stands.
As he slowed for the next red light and traffic, his car started "poppin'"(I think thats what they call it) with the front and rear alternating height, then the left front went down, the right rear up, then opposite corners...
I noticed the guy was sort of freaking out as he was fiddling with something on the passenger side(hydrolic controls?). After we started moving again, the car dropped almost all the way down, and as he drove, smoke started pouring off all four corners. He pulled off the road and got out to see he had four shredded tires....just as I drove by.

Is this....FRIED RICE?

Not only the fake convertible cloth top, but combined with a sunroof? Now that's plan stupid!

All it needs is a spare mounted in the trunk and it would be complete.
Most spares are mounted in the trunk.

rick... i'd post a pic of my tattoo again, but apparently the moderators do not approve of it... we aren't talking about my c, we're talking about the one in the picture, but if you'd like to mock my car, please start a new thread to do just that. You can start with this pic of my car! I'm a sick ******* and proud of it, thank you very much! and mb-bob... thanx for pointing out the stitching on the seats, the yellow on the knob and the seat belt retractor are still too much just to match the stitching... i guess at 50 maybe you can't see that

xc240x, since you want to point out my foibles, let me offer my opinion that the yellow on the knob and the seat belt retractor are paragons of understatement, compared with a park bench wing on silver stilts, mounted to a maroon, 4-door sedan.:p

It would look much better without the ugly, yellow, mustard trim.

That sure looks lie a Designo interior. It possibly may be since it is not a NA spec car.

Ive seen this before...sometimes these idiots cut the springs or drop them too much, combined with a larger diameter wheel and tire, and the tires have nowhere to go when the suspension compresses over bumps. The tires actually impact on the fenders, they momentarily lock, then the suspension extends as the car tries to move, the wheel is free, and the whole process starts over. Sounds like the driver was used to this happening, at least mildly...the violent motions it causes I think would be enough to cause any normal person to pull over immediately.

I was on my motorcycle when an Acura Integra about 3 cars ahead of me in the next lane suffered a similar fate... I got pelted with bits of tire as the car screeched off the road. Don't know if the car you saw was a real low rider(complete with the hydraulics) or just an idiot who dropped the car way too much.

Sounds like classic rice to me. More attitude than brains.

Re: This is the most disgusting C-Class in the history of the C-Class (Pictures Inside!)

I personally think the owner's intentions were okay. The suede, titanium trim, and leather is a sporty combination appropriate for any AMG-model. But I can imagine just how much better the whole package would look, if only the red (paint, leather) were two shades darker. Oh, and the red paint on the wheel looks hideous.

And the "other" C-class? I nearly threw up. End of comment...
