Not feeling it, but I will say the center caps match the car nicely.

I know it's personal preference, but I never got the "I just broke a rear axle" look.

this is in no way vip related. more euro inspired than anything.

I just can't get over the mudflaps. Here is a car with style over function; but tacks on some ugly mudflaps.

So greenies aren't complaining about all the retarded VIP cars, but they have the nerve to complain about gas guzzlers?

Wonderful, now the owner of this fine vehicle can discuss aggressive offsets, rubbing tires, rolling fenders, modifying fender liners, etc.

Can't vote, not enough choices. I don't like the car, but it's not because of the staggered wheels on FWD, which I think is fine.

You're supposed to (at worst) roll over onto your sidewalls pulling ~1g through corners....not drive on them when you're going in a straight line. 40 degrees negative camber=epic fail.
