If I'm not happy with the options, I shouldn't buy anything.

But on the other hand, I don't really have much of a choice. My car needs $1000 put into it by the end of the year, and that's assuming nothing else gives out.
 
If I wait the entire school year, after paying for school, I'd... actually be in worse shape than I am now, I didn't really amass enough savings this year thanks to the fuck-up of a summer schedule. The best that might happen is opening up the stock account to sell it, if the economy figures itself out.
 
Of course, if the black car has a lumbar support hidden under those cloth seats, it's all a moot point, I won't be getting it anyways.
 
Also, this idea of "slammed" is totally fucking retarded, and makes me wish I could avoid any car that ricers think is cool. Because ricers just need to be beaten to bloody pulps.
 
Essentially, "slammed" is lowering the car so far that the top of the tires is hidden behind the fender. It means you need to roll your fenders (minor), have narrow wheels/tires with high offset on the wheels (less rubber on the ground), might end up with issues on turning radius, and need a rock-hard suspension to avoid smashing the tires into the top of the well.

So, in essence, totally fucking retarded.

Also, now looking at 3's.
 
Anybody who has "slammed" their car would have to basically stop for potholes, I've seen it pretty often in Lowell and Boston. People who do that should just get stuffed, and be at fault for the accident. You can't short stop in the middle of a street for a pothole. Just can't be done.
 
I remember watching some kid in a Honda or Acura something, red, with gold wheels, and although I didn't know the term at the time, it was apparently "slammed". The tires were underneath the fenders, and he came across the intersection, where I'm sitting waiting for my turn arrow, and has to go to less than 5 MPH to bump through a tiny pothole. We're staring at each other, and he looks... proud. Like a look of "my car is so awesome!". And the look on my face is more of a "holy fuckballs is that thing real?"
 
Cheer up, I get to present a half-assed and half-baked app to our COO and CFO this afternoon. I tried to warn my boss but he wouldn't listen.
 
fuck this. I think I am going to go home, sleep and then spend the whole night sitting on top of the developers and watch them check every functionality.
 
Just got the latest Harry Potter on Blu-ray.
Need to have something good with it. Maybe Chipotle? With chips and medium salsa?
And fucking strawberry soda!

YES BITCHES I AM WIN!!
