My red mk3 was about that low if not lower than those. Towards the end of our relationship it was getting stuck on the driveway on a daily basis.

Best thing ever was the look on the other half's face when we were stuck on a speed bump. She said what did it mean and wasn't impressed with the answer of it means you get out and push.

mines on coils atm.

its wank, got g60 arches on it and the front splitter is about 2" off the floor so this make the front edge of the arches about the same, and i know they cost a fortune and they are f**ked.

all cracked at the bottom from the previous owner running into speedhumps and such and you cant drive it properly in the real world.

plus the middle box on the zorst is f**ked cause of the same, so overall running cars this low is a thingys trick.

imo :smiley:
