Haha, I didn't realize there were such hardcore ghettos in Canada. I don't know much about low riders but they seem like cool rides.

There is a guy in my town (in Japan) that has a stretched Cadillac limo lowrider.
He wears bandanas and stuff, and often "rolls" around town. He jacks the car up at weird angles at red lights, and all the Japanese people point and laugh like "haha, look at the loser in his busted American car". I don't think they get it at all, they just think his car is broken. And it may well just be.

[doublejceballos]

lol
well i respect lowriders
but yeah that might seem out of place over in japan.
dont they have their own lowriding style/scene over there?

[Daryl @ RightDrive]

There is a low rider magazine over here, there are some seriously sweet cars in there. The style is a bit Japanese, but based on the US scene.

I think the guy from Cypress Hill, who is into low riders, once said something like "If your s*&t doesn't scrape, it ain't low enough"

[Brendan]

I didn't know people acted like that in this country.

What the ****.

I saw a Honda lowrider on a motorway at weird angles.

History of Lowrider name -

http://www.trickedoutride.net/The-History-of-Lowriders.html

It seems Lowrider cars are a status symbol, just like a horse in Mexico (ritual called paseo), which is supposedly where the name Lowrider name came from. It explains why rap stars, etc use Lowriders in music video's (status symbol).

The whole point of a lowrider car is to attract attention.

[dah_hunter]

Ha Ha.. i seen a lot of those cars on a daily basis..

thats funny the arguments it has started..

LoL

In Canada we dont have any USA Style Ghettos.. and im ok with that.. surrey being the Ghetto is all good with me..

[Snow]

hahaha

My first car was a Cadillac Deville. Slammed. System. Nothing special, I payed $500 for it and then put another 4-5k into it over the next year before I bought a more reliable car. It was a POS, was later impounded and crushed.

I would love to get another one. They're fun for a nice comfortable cruiser. I'd rock one as a DD.

I love that they're hanging out in the "ghetto." They're in ******* White Rock for christs sakes hahaha.

I will say though I've seen a lot of cars like that. SUV's especially with rims and whatever. Hell my 43 year old step mother was rocking an 07 Navi on 22's with a custom grill... screens... the works. I loved taking that thing out; nothing says get out of my way like a young guy in an expensive truck on big rims flashing high-beams, especially with all the gang **** that went down around here.

Now my step mom rocks a new ML340 Bluetec...? Not as much fun But way better on gas!

Wait til I post pics of the gf and mines new winter beater (that I refer to as my "winter-beater.")

[JBNR32]

Man lowriders are awesome. I'd love to have a car on bags or hydraulics.

I see the McD's by my house in that video..

suuuper gay.


That area is far from teh "ghetto"... looking at how much $$ is in those cars, these are just yuppie spoon fed kids trying to look "ghetto"...

now maybe if they were rolling around in Whally.

You'd see riced out Hondas in Whalley. Trust me, I pretty much live in the area.

well i would have to agree with dah_hunter
if we do have a ghetto in the lower mainland, its somewhere in surrey.
However, those cars had LOTS of money put into them
and some were quite nice, but dubbed with rap music and tiny white guys hidden (slouched) somewhere inside is just funny

and yeah, white rock isnt exactly ghetto
but i got to 3 wheel'n the whiterock round about was pretty sweet

however, rollin' in da mcdonalds parking liz-ot is truly gainckstaaah
