Anyone who paid even close to 30k for an FR-S is a fool. They're cheap cars...that's why idiots such as the guy with the steering wheel hanging out his window can afford them...

My out the door price was over 27k after taxes and some extras like the clear bra. Pretty close to 30 to me. I guess some people would spend all their money on a car payment instead of other things like a house and savings.

I would imagine they will feel really stupid when they drop their steering wheel out the window and it gets run the F over by a big ass truck and they have to drive home with a pair of vice grips for a steering wheel

This guy now has two threads he can enjoy.

Alright, @SLICVIC, you explained how things worked for Hellaflush, explain how this is done without risking life and limb. Is there even a name for this trend? "Non-thinking" or something like that?

Annnnnnd....GO!




OH this is gonna be fun. Ok retards , have any of you guys heard of a Rig shot?

Click http://www.diyphotography.net/take-c...alized-car-rig

it appears im driving fast but due to the slow shutter speed im actually driving about 4 miles per hour in this pic.



Does this answer your question @HunterGreene ??????

" Careful what you say now... don't let these owners confuse our concern for safety as hate! " Tell me @switchlanez , how concerned are you about me driving 4mph with no steering wheel?
@mad_sb how many innocent people can i take out at 4mph? maybe i should just take myself out the gene pool with my reckless 4mph driving?



And as for the dude in the white frs, driving on a highway at highway speeds without a steering wheel is pretty reckless, not something i would ever do. But whos to say he doesnt have a steering wheel on the hub and just holding a second steering wheel out the window to make it seem like hes driving without a wheel? Or maybe we should overreact to the pic and "hope he dies" or something ridiculous over a picture we have NO IDEA whats going on.

/thread. you guys are tools. Feel free to shoot me a PM with an apology guys i wont hold it against you.

Creating illusions to make your self look "cool" is just sad, i'm sorry man but...grow up and drive your car.

Fuck, don't make it so complicated.

Dont have that, if you look at the pic you'll see the watermark "Chris Petruccio Photography" you can assume my name isnt chris petruccio by looking at my user name. You can also assume that chris petruccio of chris petruccio photography took the pic. At 4mph the rig was shaking alot, many pics were taken only a few came out clear, therefore i can assume any faster than that it would be near impossible to take a rig shot, but im not a photographer so i dont know, what i DO know is i was there, i know how fast i was going, and you were NOT there to know.

I didnt make any cool illusions i just built my car the way i like it, Chris Petruccio contacted me wanting to do a photoshoot of my car, as photography is his hobby . thats what he likes to do. He did alot of hard work to do the shoot and this Rig shot, as you can see from the original pic to the final result. So how is letting a good friend of mine shooting my car sad? tell me. Looks like you need to grow up.

Because it creates an illusion of recklessness, kinda like taking a picture of you pointing a gun at a camera. For what?

To look cool, that's it.

I agree for the time and money into that pic I would have just went on a track day or an autocross event.
