Remember the golden rule...if you don't have anything nice to say...say nothing!
Um, actually the "Golden Rule" is: Do unto other as you would have them do unto you.
That said, I agree with it being ghetto, and I cannot be considered racist (I am Hispanic - parents from Chile, and my brother-in-law is a black man that could buy and sell most people on here, and yet my sister drives a Kia -go figure). Anyway, there are some mods that cross a line of taste and decorum for most of the members here (ENVY - Nuff said), I would agree mods are fine as with anything else, in moderation. The E60 pictured looks like crap that low and mods like that negate the PERFORMANCE aspect which is one of the main reasons we bought our cars, at least I did.

I didn't mean to cause an outrage with my "ghetto" remark, I was only typifing the type of "style" that we see daily on various TV shows and Movies in the current day...

It looks cool, but if you have a car like this don't you want to drive it, not show it?

Do you guys know what bagging a car is? For those who say its too low, its slammed all the way down for the show to show the car is bagged. He obviously doesn't drive it around like that. He can get any height he desires... Some of the S-Class benz's if not all of them(not sure) have air ride suspension. There is nothing ghetto about it.
