Can someone explain to me the point of lowering a car of this caliber? It isn't sporty like that so I don't get it.

Have you had any issues with the car lowered? Do the tires rub? Any issues with the front lip rubbing on the ground after going over bumps or driveways?

Car looks too low IMO. Also the passenger front looks lower than the driver side.

Did you use links or a lowering module? Personally, lowering a bit looks decent but this drop is too much, especially with stock wheels.
Aftermarket wheels (like ADV's or HRE's) typically have a wider stance and look better than stock when lowered.
