I know we have prob seen them all...

whats with the popularity of V.I.P. cars? Particularly THIS forums obsession with them, I hadn't heard of them until I came here. All I see is a heavy luxury car, with boy racer gear thrown on, and compromised manuverability due to lowering and body panels that nearly scrape the floor.A BMW M6 is what I would drive if I actually WHERE some rich very important person, not a luxurious equivalent of a ricer.

the VIP style is more toward luxury, not racing. the ride is usually set with air ride. big wheels with a large lip. agressive body panels. and luxurious interior. VIPs as a whole, really dont have many performance add-ons.

I realize that, which is why I want to know why the ducktails and fender vents are on there.

What is this? Looks like an ES350 in the back but...

merely a way to add more flow in the body lines.... small duckbill spoilers and fender vents, when combined with either widebody or flares, flow well together.
i remember two stories of about how VIP got started. one was the yakuza switching out of german cars... yet showing more flare. the second was about street punk gangs tearing up and down the highways in the larger cars.
