99 C230K - 0-60mph 7.2 or a lot worse
BMW 330i - 0-60mph 6.3 or less
G35 - 0-60mph 6.2 or less
911 - to 60mph 4.2s - 5.3s - 0-60mph 6.0 one slow 911

things with and without wheels
I think the funniest thing to see on the road is a ricer that slammed his s**t box so low that he has no suspenssion and the dope looks like a bobble head while driving his hopped-up lawn mower. :p

If the guy slams his daily ride so low to the ground that he drags his bumper or muffler on the ground and than slows down for every bump or pot hole on the road should be smaked in the back of the head.

there is nothing wrong with modifing stuff as long as it has practical use.Putting on a $500 muffler and $3000 stereo into a $200 s**t box is simply a waste unless it's stolen than it's criminal.

ahh but you dont understand... at least not the drug runners...
see, one month they will have, say, $2k. They buy a $2k car. Next month they had a good month so they have $3k. They buy a $3k stereo/TV system. Next month is a bad month, they only have $1.5k. They buy 2 $750 rims for the front. Next they have a $2.5k month and so they get two $1.25k spinners for the back.

i think tvs in cars is the most useless thing u could ever add to your car (unless your a soccer mom). It defeats the whole purpose of enjoying your vehicle, cars arent meant to be entertainment centers.
