washed and waxed my baby.

so i thought i would post a picture of her. also does it look like the car has been lowered? i have had a few people tell me it looks like the car is lowered. i havent done anything to the suspension but a previous owner might have. let me know.

That's a clean looking RS! My car looked that low when I bought it too. It wasn't lowered, the springs were just that worn out...

Nice looking car though

ok thats nice to know. cant wait to get a set of IROC springs. i might actually have a bit of ground clearance then. and in my part of iowa you take as much as you can get.

Just to let you know, alot of people here would kill for that stance(not that I'm one of them). If you need the heighth, though, by all means do it. It not worth wrecking the nose over.

yea i like the stance also but the clearance is needed more and the IROC springs will do more than what i need them to do. ive already had to get the front end fixed once and i really dont want to do it again.

by calling your car baby, its not the same meaning as some people would think, sort of like when people refer to there car as she, it not really a gir :lrolleyes: ...it just shows that its not just a "car" to u, u take pride and work hard on it and take care of it in every way..pluse u let no one ever dive it lol>its not just a "car" to u.. know what i mean?

that's EXACTLY what I mean which is why is ticks me off when I explain to ppl why I store my car in the winter and won't drive it to school and they give my this confused look and say, "it's just a car..." ugh... that makes me SO mad!!! NEVER say my Trans Am is "just a car." that really really ticks me off...... REALLY.
