Looking at the picts above ^^^ I see major issues of 1. Rub and 2. clearance. Again, this is why Baskin Robbins makes 31 flavors. Except as a pure track car, the one above would not be a feasible DD for my commute. Heck, the front spoiler alone qualifies as a snow plow!! I am not even sure that would be a good track car. And is that rear wing a certified aerodynamic wing?? (many improperly engineered wings can actually increase lift or slow the car).
I am loving the obligatory race car tow hook on the right front and arrow pointing at it . As if this car is really tracked???

@pww, that IS does look terrible with the dumped front end. it shortens the suspension travel and you can't turn for **** when driving spiritly. The WRX is not a "VIP" ... it doesn't even have what the first thing VIP-er do which is giant chrome rims. Those Enkei's are one of the lightest wheel out there.

lol...that car is done by IND (the importer/distributor for Eisenmann) they do a lot of crazy **** and yes that car is probably tracked with the roll cage, Bride seats, giant wing, barely DOT legal tires, and Brembo forged racing brakes.

I know all about VIP, and I in no way was trying to demonstrate it. I was showing what I was into and the scene that I come from. Someone else kept bringing up VIP. And I know about the enkei's. I almost picked up a set of RPF1's for the C55. I've been trying to convince my friend he needs NT03's too.

Not to argue but what about the car you posted is "more" or "better" VIP? I spend a lot of time on stanceworks/stancenation/canibeat so I see a fair share of VIP cars, and murdered out isn't something I've often seen. From what I've seen it's all about deep dish rears, tucking in the back, and chrome/silver accents..

Ohh I see what you are getting at. I thought you meant more of what was done than the car itself. Yeah that's one of my qualms with the whole scene, is they take cars and try to make them all look like generic big body lexus/mb's, and disguise what the car really is.
And I, for one, am still a fan of blacked out if done right. It was just overdone in terrible ways.
I think you might appreciate this:

It's become a discussion of car scenes? What's so wrong about that? We're all car enthusiasts here... If you don't like the direction of this thread (or lack of direction as some of you put it), then don't involve yourself. Its not doing harm to anyone
