However, a 3+" drop on an compact like a Civic just makes it look like you're trying to hard.

    This is just my opinion. If he's happy with it (which he seems to be) then more power to him. I just know that I would personally never drop a car low and I don't like the look of it.

    I don't get it, trying too hard to do what?

    To fit in, get with the scene, or whatever it is people call it.

    It's kind of like when a fashion becomes popular, but some people take it too far and you just laugh. Not the best of examples, but it's the same principle. I follow the same opinion with lifted trucks. A slighted lift truck can look nice, but these retards you see on Barrett Pkwy with Jeeps about 10 feet in the air just take it too far.

    Again, it's all a matter of opinion.

    To fit in??? You have to be kidding me. How does having a slammed car make them seem like they're "trying to hard". The same could of been said with you when you Yaris. Looks like you trying to hard to fit in, by getting a hatch You see what I mean, makes no sense.

    But yes, like you said, it's all personal opinion. I love slammed cars and I love trucks with HUUUUUUGE lifts. I would love to own a truck like that with a loud ass Hella Horn

    I don't think you're grasping the concept I'm trying to convey. I'll just let it go then.

    No, I grasped your concept, I just don't agree with it. Here's another example that might be better. Don't take it to heart : You try too hard to be JDM by owning all that Anime and Hentai

    I did make a comment stating that I did like your car overall, just that I didn't like your drop. I also never said that you had cheap-sh*t suspension, just that it looks that way.

    Don't get so defensive man. lol
