Nice. It looks like a station wagon now rather than a suv.

Definitely looks like a taller wagon. Handles about 5 times better too.

I fully respect this build and not knocking it in any way, but your definition of "classy" differs from mine.

I understand. What's not classy about it in your opinion?

I speak for myself but I think the drop and the rear camber might have something to do with it. To me it's leaning more to "riced".

The camber and alignment are OEM spec. Not sure what your refering to. The drop is because I want it to perform well on road since I'm running 22" wheels. Riced would be people putting rep wheels, eBay body parts and carbon/chrome stick on parts. This car is completely oem with all OEM carbon. Suspension is proper spring/damper combo by kw that supersedes OEM setup and the wheels are fully forged custom made not china cast reps. I think you just prefer a stock height x5. Big difference from rice lol

Ok based on the photo it appears the rear camber has increased and that's probably because of the drop. I didn't mean riced as in quality of the mods accessories. I mean riced as in style of the mods. Your previous version was more classy to me.

the only visual mod that isnt oem are the wheels, and the wheels are far from rice. i didnt want stock looking wheels this time, i wanted a lip wheel. this is preference. some people like monoblocks and some like lip designs.

I like the wheels. It brings back the old school deep dish look.

The aluminum finish also gives it a classy look, IMO, compared to dark/black wheels!

When I think of classy I think of more of an OEM look. The wheels and suspension scream aftermarket and therefore doesn't fit my visual of "classy". That being said I have a very similar setup on my E46 M3. Aftermarket wheels and coilovers. Couldn't even fit a finger between the rubber and fender. I considered it clean but not "classy". If you consider it classy then who gives a fuck what I say. Just backing my statement.
