Saw a ~2000 325i BMW with M3 vents poorly taped on plus plastidipped everything. The dude driving was blasting some EDM and stared me down when I looked and smiled. Must have known I knew.

Also consider that flag out the window and the "police charity, don't write me a ticket" license plate frame, this car is triggering waves of douche chills over here. It needs to be torched in a soccer riot.

Every bump made this thing bounce all over the road, but it's a small price to pay to look hellaflush I suppose.

Terrible car story: I was driving back to Seattle from Portland yesterday (in my '99 E36 M3) and at one point a bit North of Tacoma, WA, there were several guys riding around in half-rusted, slammed/hellaflush Datsuns. Ok, whatever, if you guys enjoy it fine. Traffic was a bit heavy and I was trying to maneuver around a slower car by merging over to the left lane, behind one of them. Another of them had been accelerating hard to apparently catch up. Apparently they thought I had cut him off on purpose and started tailgating me, hard. Once we passed the slower car, I merged back over to the center lane to get out of the way. Of course these loving morons decided the best way to handle things, instead of just forgetting it and zooming on, was to attempt to box me in on the freeway at 65+mph. Seriously. All three cars. While flipping me off. While I kept merging over to the right to just get out of their way until one of them zoomed up to keep me from moving over further... and the guy in front of me kept changing lanes to stay in front of me. I was pretty concerned his was going to attempt to brake-check me. For about 30 seconds I was surrounded front, right, and rear (with all of them dangerously close to me on all sides). Downshifting to 4th and doing a quick lane-change and accelerating put an end to that, since their little shitboxes had neither the acceleration nor maneuverability on their slammed tires that I did.  people. What was the point of that incredibly dangerous (and illegal) behavior besides dick-waving?

I was wondering the same thing! This all happened in the span of about 1 1/2-2 minutes. I can't imagine they coordinated this between three cars on cell phones that quickly. That or these guys are so unbalanced and aggressive that the moment they see one of their buddies driving like an idiot they decide to join in.

Extra posted:Then this happened: This is exactly why I hate hellaflush. People can do whatever they want to their cars for fun or aesthetics but if your car can't handle driving on poorly maintained public roads with unforeseen bumps and construction, and you end up broken down in the middle of the road then that's now affecting everyone else because they cut corners on their dumb hobby. I think the same can be said of people unwilling to pay to properly maintain their vehicle and not drive on bald tires. If you can't afford to make your car not dangerous then it shouldn't be on public roads.

He's driving around in that slammed hosed up piece of poo poo with no hood, stretched tires, and you think he gives a rats rear end about legality? PS: He's in East Orlando apparently. So the explanation is "welp, Florida."

One of the slammed Datsuns that tried to intimidate me had no hood either. (they all had stretched tires at stupid cambers) Not something you see every day in the Seattle area, that's for sure.

(they all had stretched tires at stupid cambers) I've had idiots try similar stunts on me when I had my '06 GTO. Two drunk rednecks in broke-rear end pickups, lots of angry Idiots in tarted up Mitsubishi Lancers, but the best was the three brotrucks. I ended up doing the same thing you did. After they caught back up, (it takes awhile to accelerate all that diamond plate, and I wasn't willing to hang out at 110+ indefinitely,) they literally dove off the highway, because they saw my profile in the car, on the phone. I gave the troopers got all three plate numbers. Probably didn't result in anything, but I hope they at least didn't try it on anyone else, after that.

It horrifies me that there are places that don't have safety checks and enforceable road worthy standards that the police actively check. I'm not talking petty poo poo like an indicator out and the cop being a dick and not letting you duck into a petrol station and buy a new globe, I talking the people who drive vehicles which are going to kill someone. The guy who has a jerry car on the passenger seat for a fuel tank. The person who broke their steering wheel and replaced it with a monkey wrench. The person driving a car whose frame is held together by loving timber. The person who lost a wheel and replaced it with an entire upright trolley. The other guy who lost a wheel and welded a wheelbarrow wheel in there. The guy who added air conditioning to his car by stuffing an actual A/C unit to a window and bolting a small generator to his boot. I wish I was joking

I like that they perform pretty much the same warning duty as they do when used correctly - "you should probably give this one extra room, they aren't a very good driver".
