Lauren's a different' breed of car owner, he thinks its funny that the car looks so bad. He's really into bikes so thats where his money goes. Once the new body style comes out for the stang that will probably be want he buys. Or one of those euro battery cars.. i think www.smart.com but you gotta remember lauren is a goof, pure and simple.

There is nothing done to her, and thats because I really couldnt' see putting a wing, lowering her, neon lights or any other stuff on an RL. The only thing I could possibly see doing is touching the motor, but seeing how I currently sport more HP and TQ then most of the members on the board I really dont see the point.

I like the "plain" "none touched" looks, cant stand poorly done cars. There are only a hand full of peoples cars I really like, one of them I was surprised I liked when I saw it inperson. But generally rice doesnt go over well with me. For my next car possibly a 325i I will drop in an M3 motor or turbo her, maybe lowered an inch and 17inch rims but nothing else. I like the stock look... so sue me.

Just put some coilovers then, and don't lower it too much...lower it so its about a half inch above the tire....then you'll still have some good handling, and it'll look a lil better too.

If I was to do anything I would have her chipped so I can get better top end. Right now she's limited to 132mph and I know she has more left in her. After the chip I would probably change the rims,drop an inch and custom turbo.

But thats all too much work and I'm looking at a 540i... should prove to be more fun, RWD too :yes: :cool:
