Message Board Finds

Mini Of Epic Proportions

I really can't remember where or when I came across this car, maybe on one of the several message boards and blog I check out daily. Regardless of where I found it, it obviously had a good reason to be there as it's pretty damn appealing. The raked stance, wide track, copious amounts of tire, flares, and lack of non essentially accessories leads me to believe that this Mini functions just as well as it looks.

WTF Friday: Guess This Supercar

It's been awhile since we've have played the guess this car game and as soon as I saw this car it would make a perfect candidate. Having been interested in cars most of my life it's fairly rare for me to come across a model of car by manufacturer I have never heard of before (kit cars aside). Noah and Phil are normally pretty good at posting models of cars I have never seen before so chances are they might have an idea what it is, and so might Ollie as he knows his fair of oddball cars as well. Regardless this contest is open to all of my readers and if you figure out what today's car is you win your choice of url stickers, let's get to guessing.

WTF Friday: Jet ski fail

Jet ski's are a lot of fun, provided you don't flip them in the middle of the lake and have to get towed by a fishing boat back in to fix it, but getting them to and from the lake can be a bit of a challenge. Getting it out of a lake becomes more of challenge if you don't have a proper trailer to do so. These two guys almost had a method worked out to but then mother nature, gravity, and common sense took over which resulted in a nice little fail.

Purpose built Miatas

As much as I love slammed Miatas today's collection of Mazda roadsters caught my eye because judging by the way these cars are set up it's safe to assume that they do a lot more than hard parking and actually take these cars out to the track. If your building a car to tear up your local track and the ride height you need for that leaves you with some fender gap that's alright by me. Just go fast to make up for it, real fast.

IND Atlantis M3

I saw this beast of an M3 on bikeguide.org first and it really took me by surprise since normally I don't really feel much either way about this model m3. I was only further impressed by this car when I found the build on build-threads.com. Any company looking to do a big budget build should take inspiration from IND because this is how it's done right. None of that gaudy over the top chock full of decal nonsense, keep it clean.

Random Dopeness: Volume 4

It's been awhile since I dropped some Random Dopeness, and I have had this set ready for quite some time so it's time, so it's time to throw one up. Enjoy.

WTF Friday: One year already?

Before I jump into today's WTF Friday (a fast Saturn) I thought I should mention that a year ago today was when I published the first post on stanceiseverything.com It's really exciting that an idea that took losing my job to become reality has come this far in such a short time. Now 13 Featured Rides, 36 covered Events, 49 Theme Tuesdays, and 975 comments later S.I.E. is still here and going strong. Thanks to everyone reading this, this site/blog wouldn't be what it is today without you keeping me motivated. Now without further adieu today's WTF Friday.

Volvo Memories

Growing up my dad was a car guy, he used to take me to the Toronto International Auto Show, buy me remote control cars and got me hooked on building models. For almost as far back as I can remember his 91 Volvo 940se was his pride and joy. This car was my first introduction to RWD luxury and my dads 'family compromise' so to speak. He loved this car and would often take me for spirited drives showing me the effects of over steer as we went. I often hoped this car would be mine but sadly this was not the case.

Kick Game

Maybe it's just me but I have always thought these cars looked like shoes, not to say they are not capable of looking good or performing well (as this post proves), but they still look like shoes. Maybe the perfect car for a sneaker aficionado?

Mother of God

This could have easily been a WTF Friday post but I don't think that would have done this build the justice it deserves, this is honestly one of the craziest things I have ever seen done by a privateer and obviously I am not alone since jalopnik along with a number of message boards have already given it props. When a talented 27 year old Quebec native combines an EG chassis Civic with a GD (I think) chassis Subaru on a shoestring budget of less than 6k the internet stops and says "mother of god".

WTF Friday: Random Video Mayhem

Got some fancy moving pictures to share with you guys today. Additionally the wtf is that game is back again but this time it's not for a car but for an accessory for a car. Same rules apply first correct answer in the comments wins a set of the standard url stickers.

Winter Wednesdays: Is winter over?

I heard on the radio last week that some official organization declared winter in Ontario over. I'm not sure if its really over but its been double digits all week and that makes me smile.
