I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

I love it to a point.

My love stops at the right height and the narrowed beam.

I still don't get narrowed beams.  The only thing they can do is ruin the car's handling.

Take it up off its ass and stick a standard-width beam on it and it would be a delight to own...... although it really needs a 2.5 Oxyboxer in the back, on ITBs and trick management. And an LSD.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

No, but what I pointed out would make it safer and more fun to drive on the road.  :huh:

The narrowed beam and backside scraping stance are totally dysfunctional modifications for a road car.

many people would be happy to sacrifice performance for looks.

(much in the same way you would by fitting off road tyres to a 4x4)
