Default Lifted honda?

Figured this was a good place to put this story...
So I was at work today and was upfront selling some STIHL when I looked out the window and saw a 2007 LIFTED Honda accord.... I had never seen this before and was very interested and of course wanted to talk to the dude driving it... Apparently he said lowering Honda's to the ground was a disgrace because hell is low and he didn't want his car being "compared to satan" (yeah my face dropped too...) now I don't know if any of yall have ever heard anything like this before, but I was shocked and really didn't know what to say.... I pointed out into the parking lot to my car, and he just shook his head and said its too close to the ground for him. (note my car is still stock) Thought I'd share this little story with yall because I am pretty speechless. Oh did I mention it was lifted 6inches, with 15s!!! I wanted to get a picture but of course didn't have my phone on me cause I was at work.. sorry about that, but believe me if he comes in again I'll get a pic for yall to see....

I've seen this once on an Accord with little lowrider rims. It was the worst thing I've ever seen. Not to mention that totally destroys the handling capabilities of our cars It's a shame really.

That satan comment had me rolling. I bet that's why all truckers like all that clearance. Gets you closer to God

haha I know, the guy was really nice and all, but when he left I just couldn't decide if I should shake my head or just laugh...

Sometimes you just have to laugh so you don't cry

touche!! It looked awful I wanted to go steal a set of tools from the back and put her back to normal, but I think the dude might have gotten a tad bit mad at me...

Only slightly I'm sure! Eventually he would come to love his devil car.

My personal favorite is a white Neon I saw that was on hydraulics with the classic gold wire 13"s. I couldn't stop laughing at that one.

There is a guy running around in a slammed down H2 with low profile tires on the wide offset wire wheels, airbrushed with blue glitter over white paint...What a waste...Definitely a rolling abortion...

God I wish I had the money these people have so I could actually put it to good use UNDER the hood of a car and not give it a 10,000HP paint job and rims

As I was dropping my friend off at his house yesterday (he lives basically just over the line between ghetto and ritzy neighborhood) I saw a lowered 95 or 96 Chevy Caprice with a Runts candy paint job.
