Dropped

I used to be pretty into car audio installations a few years ago (pre-theft) and even though I don't have an installation now I still find myself browsing car audio sites from time to time. On one of those trips to caraudiomag.com I found this Lexus. This Lexus is the type of car I could see a 'business professional' rolling around in, you know the type of person who still wants their car to look good but can't spend forever figuring out how to enter and exit a parking lot because they are off to their next high priced meeting and time is money.

There was a call on facebook by Kory Flansburg for more domestics, specifically Fox body Mustangs. I think any 80s babies and 90s children like myself grew up idolizing the fox body or 5.0 because they were everywhere with that super distinctive exhaust note. Much to the dismay of my girlfriend I still quite like them and occasionally threaten to buy one. If I ever did I am not sure whether I would Salleen/Dech kit it out or just rock the standard body like these two.

Mike and Jay at Stance Factory have been pretty busy the last month or so cranking out a wide assortment of Bavarian automobiles at different ride heights. If your from the GTA and drive a BMW these guys should be on your shortlists of shops to check out for maintenance and aftermarket needs. They can help you pick out the right suspension, wheel, and tire setup necessary to get your stance exactly how you want it.

I saw this on Supermade (one of my favorite dub blogs) a few weeks ago and my jaw dropped. I've always loved Corrados and Supermade seems to consistently post some of the best looking ones I have ever seen. This car is simple and sweet. Clean, low, and flush, deadly combination.

Spotted this on JDM Ego, a blog I have been reading for awhile now thanks to it's combination of nice cars and occasional bmx content (run one of there plate covers too), and found it completely share worthy. The owner of this car clearly knows what it takes to build a super clean looking, functional car. I'm not an Evo buff but I know what I like and I like what I see.

This one's all teamwork. Nash suggested it on facebook, I started working on it, and Ollie came through huge with the final touches. Steel wheels work on a variety of vehicles, are cheap, and fairly strong. I hear they are a bit on the heavy side however. The cheap, light, strong triangle strikes again.

Looks like silver Evos are rolling out pretty serious onto the streets of the GTA as this is the second one local one I've seen that packs heat on the inside and looks great on the outside. This particular one is putting down 431whp and 369 foot pounds of torque to the wheels. In these photos those wheels happen to be 18x10 Works wrapped in 225/40 tires however with that type of power it stands to reason that the owner has another set of wheels that could probably put this car into the fat and flush category.

Why are there so many red e30s? I mean this in two ways, first here in Toronto a few years ago red e30s vastly outnumbered e30s of any other color at meets and events, and second not only are there a lot of them number wise but they also come in several different shades of red just to make things a little more confusing. Zinnoberrot, Karminrot, and Briliantrot are a few and I am sure I probably missed seven or so.

Anyone that's grown up riding (or skating) was probably told at some point prior to getting their license that as soon as they got the keys to their first car they would no longer be interested in spending hours on end at their favorite street spot, skate park, or set of trails and would instead be interested solely in automobiles. While that is true for some, those of us who love bikes and boards as much as we love cars always knew that both would have a significant presence in our lives.

This is wild, just last week I was talking to my friends Jay and Mike at Stance Factory, who had seen Rusty and Mike in person last year, about the 'presence' this car had and now it's all over. As a a regular BMW forum reader when Mike first started with this car I remember a lot of the earlier phases of this car quite well, so while I was going to do a BMW 2002 Theme Tuesday today I figured a Rusty one would be more appropriate.

I've already shared a few of my favorite Mazda Speed3s here with you, SumThaiGuys white one on SSR Long Champs and the Fat and Flush black one on 17x9 RPF-1s, are two recent examples and I'm about to throw this one from Black Mamba Motor Sports into the mix because it's another speed3 I think looks really, really good. This car is a great example of what can be accomplished with a realistic budget, a healthy drop, and a little originality when choosing a paint color for your wheels.

It's pretty amazing that even though e30 m3 has not been produced for years, which is causing the buy in for one to steadily increase, that there are still a bumper crop of clean ones being built today. Many of which I have never seen on the internet before. This m3 is setup almost dead in the middle of function and form and no one other than Johnny Cash has walked the line better.
