I hate really low cars
 

Well my bro is off to college and he left behind a '99 eclipse gs, slammed, 18's, blitz kit... and it is amazingly low. Well I told him I'd drive it like once a week just to keep the thing running so tonight I took it out with a friend into town for a little town festivity.

Well, its worse enough that I have to back down the drive way, and even at that, i still scraped the bottom of the bumper, but worse yet, in town, trying to turn around, i ------- nose dived into some pavement and left a hearty scratch on the underside of the blitz front. So I run back to my friend's house to swap cars, in this case a 350z, and he ------- manages to back that up into a curb... another scratch to the list all in 15 minutes.

Figured I'd share that, I'm pissed, I'm never driving that ---- again.

Must be one of those cars where going over speedbumps is basically impossible. Maybe your brother won't notice, it's bound to happen anyway if it's that low. :-\

i hear ya but i love low cars...ive had air suspension to get around that speed bump problem, lol....i just think cars look better on the ground, or at least tastefully lowered

Re:I hate really low cars
 

Well its possibly, barely.. my bro and I were at the beach and there was a speed bump we sorta had to go over... i got out to direct him over it, i made him stop when his bumper was over it, barely fit my finger between the bump and the bumper...

Yeah, hes so melodramatic that when he finds out he will go nuts for 5 minutes than brush it off and not give a ----.

Oh well, worse comes to worse I'll just hop in the turbo sol and run from him... :D

your bor picked a good car to rice out... eclipse GS! hah

Re:I hate really low cars
 

i wonder if he does the BEEEEEAMMMMMMM too ;D and if you dont know what i mean, watch the pop-tart commercials

Re:I hate really low cars
 

those things can be mean as hell turbo...my friends rs eclipse traps at 117mph (cant hook with street tires so he only got 13.2)...im not a fan of the body kit( thats part of your bro's problem), especially on a car with a bumper that sits so low anyway

Re:I hate really low cars
 

I love dropped cars, my ef hatch was so dropped the mudguards scratched the pavement. Ahhh the classic speed bumps, ever time I hit one, reminded me of elementary, exactly like a see-saw.

Re:I hate really low cars
 

That's the price you pay. :-\ The body kit has a lot to do with how bad it scrapes and also makes it look shitty. :P
