Stance and Your Attitude In the Car Community

Hellaflush! Stance nation! Camber gang!


All these phrases typed out by stance bros on the internet are the reason stance is hated on. Taking a super cheap car that is barely working mechanically, cutting the springs by a full coil and a half, and throwing wheels worth twice to three times more than the car on are why stance is hated on. 45 degree anglef camber with super-stretched tires is why stance is hated on. Perfectly good track cars "ruined" by slight stretch and camber is why stance is hated on.

What do I think about stance? It goes for every style of car modifications: I respect a person who has a tasteful build with a lot of their own time and hours put into it.

If you buy the car like that, but intend to fix, modify, or change things yourself, I respect that.

If you buy it modified and it is done tastefully, I respect that.



For example, one of my friends from my old hometown bought a nice 1987 Volkswagen Jetta GLI, similar to the car above. It had a Borla catback exhaust, lowering springs that made it one of the lowest cars in the city, Stance Encore wheels with slight tire stretch, and a roof rack. I loved that car.

Bottom line for me is that I appreciate good track builds, good trucks, good muscle cars, good sports cars, basically any car where the owner is a dedicated enthusiast who is respectful and gives back to the community. This includes stance. If it is done right and clean, I love the car.

Bottom line, it's all about your attitude.
