There are plenty car cultures out there and while everyone has their favorites there is one thing that should be above anything. Respect the build. Respect the owner. Because in the end we are all part of that same brotherhood that encompasses all car brands and genres. “Car Enthusiasts”

I think a lot of people either love or hate the stance culture. Slammed cars and no ground clearance. I recently got the OPPO rtunity to drive a stanced Integra... and well... this is how it went down.

What is your opinion on stance? And do you freely hate on another guys car or do you adopt a similar mindset to mine?

I like stance but could never drive a stanced car everyday

This is his daily! You are on point though, I like a little bit of ground clearance myself.

Nice review! This is the first of yours that I’ve watched, and now I’m on a binge watching streak....

As for my opinion on stance, I am all for anyone doing whatever they want to their car as long as they enjoy it, and its not endangering themselves or others. A slight tasteful camber can go a long way, especially with older bimmers. I also love seeing the form of self expression that comes out in stanced cars, its more unique than many other branches of car culture. And also...

BOTTOM OUT OVER A POP TART

I like stance and I’m ok with stanced cars as long as they are properly built. I’m not a fan of unequal amounts of camber on front and rear and I wouldn’t want to own a stanced car with static suspension though.

I feel like the Integra is low enough stock, if not could use a 1-2 inch drop at most. God bless his spine

Hahaha! Thanks for the props man, I hope you enjoy my other reviews!

And you are right about that, self expression is huge on stanced cars! Yes, bottom out over a pop tart is about right it seems! It’s funny though, the stuff I thought I was going to scrape over I didn’t scrape, and the stuff that seemed safe was... SCRAAAAAAAPE!

I think a bagged stanced car would be the ultimate. Slam on demand, yet capable of scaling just about any incline if needed. But, I have much respect for those on static suspension. It’s a lifestyle choice, and there is something to say about that!

That Integra doesn’t look “stanced”. It looks like it was just lowered.

If you want some air suspension or want to get some hydraulics, go ahead. But you know what, even Formula 1 cars have a science to their design and aren’t lowered and cambered to the point they scrape the asphalt all the way around the track. And I do respect builds. Completed builds. :P

Well color me confused... Isn’t that exactly what a “stanced” car is? Low AF and scrapes everywhere...

I’d like to think that car might surprise everyone down the line. The owner loves it, and I sure think it is unique and awesome in it’s own right.

I put stance in the same category as lifted trucks. bro If done properly it can add a cool look to the vehicle. In most cases though the dumbass did a half assed job that compromises the handling characteristics.
