it seems strange driving one of the best FWD handling cars around and choosing NOT to improve it, I know you like the standard look but your gold one looked spot on and it wasnt stupidly low

why does it NEED lowering?
im not gong to take it on a track
im not going to any shows
im not trying to impress the kind of people that like a lowerd car
i AM going to be using it for work
i WILL be needing to get over speed bumps etc on aregular basis
i WILL be using it to visit clients where a suitable impression will need to be imposed, NOT wher i turn up in a car with the exhaust dragging on the floor

I have just read most of this post, and its just proves my point why most of the old users of CS never bother even coming on this site no more.
Everyone just is so pathetic; everyone is nitpicking at everyone’s posts. Haven’t these people got anything better to do?
I don’t see why people can’t do what they want without getting criticised.

well do you want everyone just to say it's a nice clean standard car?? That would be boring, everyone of the members on this site to say that, the posts wouldn't be worth reading, not that this one is either tbh, but atleast he explains why he isn't lowering it!!!!

1.) looks better
2.)Don't need to take it on a track cause it's lowered.
3.) so......
4.)Just because you lower a car doesn't mean you are trying to impress somebody
5.)Lowered 40mm all round will not catch on speed bumps etc, and exhaust will not drag on the floor
6.)Turning up in a 106, impression from clients are not going to change if it is lowered slightly or not, your still turning up in a 106...
Anyway who cares...It's your car........Looks too high,sorry standard. and if you post pics on a modified car site ppl are going to say lower it etc etc....
enjoy the car.................

what a thread
I like the car, looks nice and clean.
Im not going to say lower it or do this and that to it. i see nothing wrong with it, and im sure Steve has better things to spend money on rather than lowering his car when he doesn't want to or need to.
