Stancing?


How many of you like slamming/flushing/stancing?
What is the appeal of it? I don't get it at all.
Not trying to flame but I'm sincerely curious as to whats so "sick brah" about it.

Some like the look. Some don't.


That is all.

The style of massive camber evolved from the VIP scene, that scene happens to be a personal favorite of mine, particularly in japan. On the right cars, it is classy, bold, and aggressive. The brz/frs/celica is not a VIP car, and as such, the style looks out of place and bizarre. That particular BRZ looks as dumb and confused as a child that pooped its diaper playing in a sandbox.... Messy as hell and wreaks of desparation.

But I'm an engineer, so whatever

Truth^^ but even within that scene there are some cars that you scratch your head. For example: G35/7 sedan and Coupe. The sedan looks good that way but you do it with the coupe and its just doesn't work.

Similar to a rat rod...people make their cars look broken to fit in with a certain crowd that enjoy the look of broken-looking cars.

I like it on cars that are not meant to be performance driven. Since you cant really take advantage of the fun of having a sports car when you are stanced. I do think it looks good though.
