It's not dropped on it's nuts..It has period correct sized wheels...It's not completely tucked into the fenders.. Granted the offset is a bit aggressive, but is that really "stanced"?

That's just the thing, the definition of "stance" is so skewed that there really is no such thing.

Until everyone started bitching about the term, i always took 'stance' as an ambiguous term to mean the state of the car on its suspension and wheels. ie, high stance, low stance, aggressive stance, grandma stance, offroad stance, etc. literally, how the car 'stands'.

then sh*t started getting out of hand and everyone started complaining about the term.

per rules:

I dare anyone to find a modern car with a better ass than that Maserati.

, that is just awesome

Any more pics of this?

**Tuneman7** · 10-11-2012 01:11 AM

Found better pictures of that FR-S. Apparently it's a U.S. spec car in Japan, not sure how that worked out.

I guess I'll see the kit in person since we have lights going on the Forgestar Rocket Bunny car.

Yeah. In the U.S. I believe it's going to be sold as a GReddy kit.

**panzer 2.3** · 10-11-2012 03:23 PM

Well I guess my fav car is my own MKI I'd be lying if I said it wasn't

followed by my wife's ea cabby:

something always I always liked about about the jagermeifter MKI berg cup racer

I'm new so I hope you like these. I took all of these so they can't be posted already.

**C4 A6** · 10-11-2012 03:55 PM

I don't see any hot or shizz (except for that SS) in the past 2 posts so I'll rectify that:

At first look I thought these were Isuzu Impulse wheels. But no? They are quite unique. What are they?

The are melber scacchiera II's also known as chessboard wheels. They're pretty rare & supposedly only a handful of sets exist. Her's are the only 4x100 that we know off. We love them because they're period correct & signify 80 trash

Here's when we got them:

The upper left wheel had to be reapaired which cost a small fortune, but the wheels are machined so they had to be put on a lathe to get off the peeling clear coat & then re-cleared along with having the decals remade, but well worth it

Here's another pic of my wife's pride n joy. It's currently garaged as it preps for a bay shave/respray. The 8v is on its last legs thanks to me, and a aba w/ itbs is being swapped in.

That's her favorite pic of the car & she even had it made into a poster for the garage. Me MKI is behind her, but that's currently down too

Saw this in front of the Bell Center in Montreal. Not my style, but still awesome.

The Italia is one of those cars that can be made perfect with wheels and "stance" (shudder). I don't really like it in stock form, but that yellow one and this are amazing.
