VIP Cars! WTF.

[getdowngranny]

I am a fan of just about any kind of car genre. Muscle cars, rat rods, classics, low riders, drag cars, and even some of the "donk" style cars look good. One a couple of my outingswith the GN i have noticed a new genre of cars, VIP style cars. They must be the stupidest looking cars out now. Here are the basics: 4 door luxury sedan, slammed as low as possible, deep dish wheels, and last but not least the car must purposely have an extreme amount of camber. So much camber that you are riding on the edge of the tires. I dont get it. I have attached a picture of a VIP car so you can see what i am talking about. Opinions please!

not for me! they will spend a ton on tires

Never seen or heard of these until right now, tires will probably have bevels in them after 500 miles. Ridiculous.

 

[6cylboost]

[captflash]

WTF????

 

[novaderrik]

they actually make tires just for those extreme amounts of camber.
i see what looks like Japanese license plates on that car.. that kind of explains it- they take inspiration from cartoons..

Its the same thing as donks,its all about being ridiculous. On the other hand can you imagine an old timer who grew up with model T's seeing a jacked up rear end on a muscle car in the 70's?. Same thing probably.

[gnmexico]

[JimP]

Are you sure there weren't 4 sumo wrestler's in that car.

 

[84 Sleeper]

Looks idiotic to me. What is the point it looks like it can only go straight at a top speed of 4mph.

 

[Madcat455]

This is what happens when you try to pull a "Duke" with newer model cars

 

[Pronto]

It looks a bit like one of the vehicles in the Disney movie "CARS"

I guess it's all a matter of taste.......

Of course, all of these guys' taste is in their mouths..........

 

[highboostgn]

better call the FBI and tell them you spotted an UFO

 

[killer231olds]

At least its not a buick...but still looks like crap.

If I may weigh in. That is a fad that goes on in Japan. It's called Oni-Camber. The Japanese are extremely over the top. One word... Bukkake. American Import fans here in the states "hate" on this ridiculous camber trend also. These guys are 9 times out of 10 Yakuza foot soldiers, or lower classed members of the Japanese Mafia, from what is said. They flaunt the amount of money they have by buying expensive tires and ruining them. The inside of these vehicles are very luxurious though. Many flaunting 22" Tv's in the ceilings and small refrigerators stocked with expensive liquor. They even have small tables adorning the dash board right above the glove box. These cars also are air ride. and they make special adapters to run this much camber.

My list of cars. 87' Gn(27k miles), 96' Honda Integra Type-R (imported, right hand drive) , 01' Toyota Avalon XLS (VIP'ed, sorry but it doesn't have this camber you speak of) and a Toyota Pick-up. I'm a fan of all cars except jacked up DONKS or anything with 20's or higher. It's just not my thing.

at the Javits auto show there were two cars with the wheels slanted out like that just not as much.
them same two cars also had what looks like 10 inch wide wheels with 6 inch wide tires mounted on them.
I have actually seen that stupid look start to spread.
can you say future curb rash
