^ Me too.. (esp. on a daily)
But doubt this is a daily and it's meant/ set-up to stunt. So

And to think that I thought that mine was low ... I have adjustable Teins with the electronic damping controller on it and 3 piece 20" wheels on 245/35ZR20 tires . It is a 2000 GS-400 with 25,000 miles , driven normally around and absolutely impecable ... not a single scratch on its Pearl White paint . It drives perfect , but I always have to be on the lookout for bumps, etc because it is low , even thou here in Florida there are no pot holes or too many bumps , but you never know, so I am always careful . I can`t imagine how that car can be driven normally... I guess if you run over a cigarette butt you will get a few thousand dollars of body damage , lol ... it is beautiful , thou . that red color is fantastic ... Worth of a car show but not too practical , in my opinion

Air slam... I prefer a car that have the same low profile all the time and looks good when driving and when parked.
Cars fully slammed don`t look that good at normal driving height , but if slammed looks is preferred , then you go for it ... if just a matter of preferences . This build , thou , is beautiful ... really astonishing work .
