This has to be one of the most retarded styles / looks someone can do to a car.

Does it serve a purpose?

I hope no one has done this to their BMW!

Can't imagine why?

Did a quick google search and thankfully (and not surprisingly!) most pictures were hondas... Did find a couple of interesting shots including an awesome E9X minivan conversion, complete with M3 rear end and quad exhaust.

I knew there had to be a purpose!

I thought it might be for stunting, like driving on two wheels with the other side of the car in the air ... That way the two wheels still on the ground would actually have a normal contact patch.

The minivan is only an E9X in the front. The rear is from the E65/E66 7-Series

If I had to drive a minivan and managed not to shoot myself in the head first while driving off of a cliff, then this would be the minivan to drive!

True, the tail lights are from the 7 but check out the rear diffuser and the quad exhaust...

Not to be the grammar police but in this case I would think "jeans" is more appropriate the "genes"!

That makes no sense... I don't get grammar policed often, but when I do, it better be for a good reason!

Feel free to elaborate

Sorry, an attepmt at humor! Genes are genetic material that determine a variety of characteristics such as hair color, height etc, right? This van has no M genes but given the purely exterior M mods I thought and external covering like a pair of jeans was more appropriate. Well, it sounded funny to me anyway!

Ah, that is funny in this context. Your sad smiley face is what threw me off.

Carry on, nothing to see here!

I personally don't think negative camber looks good on e9x body style, I actually think it looked great on the e36. I'd only drop it a little, put a wider tire/wheel with a tad of stretch too it...just my two cents.
