Why do ppl do this ?

[Grant]

teams of german & japanese engineers spend vasts amounts of time getting any model of cars as good as possible.
and then come along the "athlone engineers".

exhibit a
a perfectly good and well engineered high performance car, with a strap-on dildo.
looks like an oversized tray table, attached with pop rivets.
have to wonder how much time was spent in a wind tunnel to get the variable aerodynamics right.
maar "dit lyk gevaarlik"


exhibit b
this is plain pitiful
those wheels vs wheel arches.
a car continually conquered by loose pebbles on the road, driveways, speed humps - basically anything taller than 5mm
maar, "dit lyk gevaarlik"

Go to Durban and check out the 'Chatsworth Chariots' & 'Phoenix Ferraris' for real butchering of vehicle aesthetics, aerodynamics (and lack of ground clearance due to 'stanced' air suspension conversions)...

Just curious where you got the photos? Friends of yours?

Because racekor I don't mind air ride, never been a fan of the Liberty Walk style stuff although I like some of the RWB/RAUH-Welt BEGRIFF Porsche's but still prefer Singer's Porsche's.

 

[Cius]

I always assumed it was some combination of:
a) compensating for something
b) I need attention cause I never got it growing up
c) (for conversions that make cars louder) I am an ahole who likes annoying everyone around me and gets a kick out of waking up the old, sick. school kids, and those trying to just live their life at 3AM on a Tues morning when I come roaring back home.

I've been called boring because I don't see the appeal in a dropped car. I still don't get it.

Basically the smaller your wiener the bigger the car you need, its a well known fact that staunch afrikaaners have small willys, thus why rangers are selling like hot cakes. However some guys are super unlucky and have both a small wiener and are poor hobos so then they butcher a car like this instead.

Because in South Africa cars and bakkies are penises that’s why

Still stays in mommy's basement AND can't get a girlfriend so has money to blow

It appears that you have to do this if you're a 786er. Along with eating oily slop out of a hollowed out government loaf.

It's in an old charter or something.

There is this red Polo Vivo that parks in our local Food Lovers basement parking, the suspension is non-existent.

Even my kids were like, "look daddy, the broken car"

It looks beyond ridiculous..

Maar the cherries smaak it supposedly..

Neither is a Corsa Lite, but it doesn't stop anyone in Brakpan from trying to live out their Fast and the Furious fantasy...

Because they are fkn stupid. It is a pity that these people are kept alive by medical science and rules... They really need natural selection to play a major part here.
