...Is it just me or is there something really wrong with that rear suspension...? Something just doesn't look "right" with the rear wheel in that last photo...

IRS and "modified standard" springs is my guess... the standard wheels don't fill out the gaurds real well and when you drop the rear a whole heap of neg camber is created...

That commodore is about the same standard as this, crappy paint, crappy black wheels, and cheap leds to make it look cool

how many warnings do people need?
BOTH the commodore, and the falcon in the last two posts might not be your idea of what makes a great car, however, isn't that what makes the motoring scene so interesting in the first place?
Once again we go back into personal insult territory, and once again the thread gets closed - this time the lock will NOT be removed.
