Default A few more photos of my SC430 wearing the SSR GT3s

O.k. I finally took my car out again today.... still a little snow melting away but I just got too impatient (LOL). Anyway, I just ran out to take some more photos to show you guys the look of the SSRs. Here they are!

Hmmm ... did any other people perceive the perfectly planned parking position?

Nice wheels.

LOL -- well hey, the one spot had a pile of snow in it... so no one could really use it....

BTW: Thanks! I still can't believe how much they change to look of the car!

I think the Fuji digi camera made the red look a bit off....

...but then again, Fuji film does the same thing LOL


I'm still not convinced I want to 'drop' the SC430. I've 'dropped' my winter VW and it is signifantly harsher in ride quality than stock and a night and day difference from my SC430. I like the handling now in my VW BUT NOT the jolts on Chicagoland roads


...If I ever happen to get a chance to ride in someone's lowered SC430, on roads similiar to ours here in the midwest snow/rust belt, I might be convinced to make the change.... but for now, I'm content and am o.k. with the wheel gap

Default LOL

Don't you remember the one they had painted like 'a'hem' in Austin Power's????????


..just look at it and you can see clearly what it resembles... and it makes perfect sense why they used it like that in Austin Power's... LOL


..the funny thing is, the owner of the Corbin Sparrow ALSO owns a brand new Hummer (it's her husband's anyway)... Go figure.. LOL Talk about complete opposites!!!!!!
