    What an odd looking creature...

    I think with normal camber and height it would actually look OK.

    Props to the builder, looks damn near seamless.

    It's certainly got the aesthetics and the ferocity of the Giant Sloth.

    As if the BMW components on a Honda weren't bad enough, but the ridiculous camber on those overgrown wheels looks exceedingly stupid. What is it with the tuner crowd that they have such awful taste?

    For all of you looking for an explanation for the stupid camber angles, GIS 'jdm vip,' and prepare to have your brains melted by absurdity.

    @Franzouse: That's just generic ugly you're seeing there. Just look at the Aztec or late model Firebird where they used it liberally.

    It's kind of like when someone sees a Hofmeister kink and immediately makes the BMW association.

    As if I didn't dislike extreme camber enough, this adds a heaping helping of wasabi seasoned wackiness. Who needs this? If you aren't a BMW, don't pretend you are - or ever could be!

    Wear your past with pride! Jezza doesn't want you in the studio with your "partner?" Screw that - over and over! Walk right in! Embarrassed to be an overinflated Porsche "sedan?" No point in hiding your questionable beauty behind a layer of gloss camo - go nuts! You're porky! You're Porsche! Be a porky Porsche!

    And now...you're a Honda. Always gonna be a Honda. Step away from the nose job. It's like, you know - not always the best choice.

    The E46 is a 3 series. Honestly you should know before posting. Still; I agree. It's a beautiful car, especially the coupe.

    The E46 is the best looking of the bunch, with the range becoming increasingly more modern, until the Big D'Oh.

    Also, their webseries ad with the E46 M5 with Clive Owen (IMO the best choice for 007) was inspirational.

    @All:

    Yes, I meant the E39. I was too lazy to wiki. That said, one person saying it is quite enough.

    I still think the E39 looks every part a BMW, and that's where I'd put my money, when I get that money. #tips
