Damn. Wow. Sick pictures. I just am amazed at how you slammed such an expensive luxury car lol. It's crazy. I'm in love with this car. Just got a few questions for you da mayor, if you could answer all of them that would be awesome.



1) Do you scrape or bottom out on dips on the highway?

2) Have you ever driven this car on the FDR, BQE, Cross Bronx, or Deegan ? If so, how do you handle driving such a low car on such crappy highways like I mentioned above?

3) How did you drive this in Manhattan for the NY auto show? Any tips for driving a slammed car in Manhattan? Lol. Dealing with honking taxis and crazy *** drivers and all that stuff lol

Appreciate your answers in advance da mayor!

Don't get me wrong ... this M (and many of the other Infiniti pictured) are simply beautiful but I don't get a car lowered so much that the wheels don't stand straight up and down, they are angled out at the bottom. IMHO this takes away from being lowered and looks like the suspension is broke.

1) Do you scrape or bottom out on dips on the highway? THE PLASTIC LINERS DO SCRAPE OVER BUMPS BUT THAT IS IT.

2) Have you ever driven this car on the FDR, BQE, Cross Bronx, or Deegan ? If so, how do you handle driving such a low car on such crappy highways like I mentioned above? I DRIVE IT ALMOST EVERY DAY AND DRIVEN TO SEVERAL OUT OF STATE MEETS. YOU JUST HAVE TO BE PICKY ABOUT WHAT LANES TO STAY IN.

3) How did you drive this in Manhattan for the NY auto show? Any tips for driving a slammed car in Manhattan? Lol. Dealing with honking taxis and crazy *** drivers and all that stuff lol ACTUALLY MANHATTAN ROADS ARE NOT AS BAD CONSIDERING THE CONDITIONS OF SOME OTHER ROADS. YOU BASICALLY HAVE TO TAKE A PREVIEW DRIVE WITH FRIENDS TO SEE WHAT ROADS ARE BETTER THAN OTHERS. PLENTY OF FRIENDS DRIVE LOWERED CARS DAILY THROUGH THE CITY -- YOU LEARN TO KNOW WHICH RESTAURANT PARKING LOTS AND GAS STATIONS ARE LOWERED FRIENDLY.

Appreciate your answers in advance da mayor!

Just wondering though, have you ever busted your oil pan?

nope still have all factory plastics on. the hr motor oil pan sits pretty high -- you'll need to smash the subframe before reaching the oil pan




gravel roads are fun

yep, the Mavericks. The G25s look awesome on the G too. Did your bro buy a set for the G? Shoot me a message if he sells the Mavericks. Not planning to buy wheels anytime soon, but might change my mind for those.
