Slam it and camber it.

Hella flush ftw :)

Going JDM on a USDM American made car looks a bit like a ricer.

Please no rice :( Just drive it till it dies. If you want to buy some cheap cars to "do things to" I suggest Ford Focus, Chevy Cobalt, Mazda MX-5, etc. Sporty 4 cylinders. FART CAN THEM UP BRAH lolz jk. In all seriousness though, they use Ford Focus's in professional racing. So if you want to get a little into some elbow grease and learn about cars. The Focus is a sweet ass car.. but please, keep the Lumina stock.

I know plenty about cars and if you have not read the thread I do not recommend you respond to it. The lumina is my first car therefore I am giving it new life. I do not plan on  making a ricer out of it just some simple stuff that would make it a nicer overall car. My original idea was apparently to "rice" so I changed it and am going to make it a classy car.

if he converts to full electric, he could probably get close to 100mpg.

 

Full Electric........Miles Per Gallon... I believe you mean miles of range per hour....or something.

 

@ - I'm in Portland, where rich people drive Prius, and everyone else loves really old Volvos. (I fall into the latter... but own a newer Volvo...).  

 

Unless you're in my neighborhood, and then you see more American cars - on 24s.

 

Also, I love how people can't believe that modern hybrids can be beat by 90's cars fuel economy. The fact a prius can be easily beat by alot of 90's economy cars (economy as in, cheap as dirt cars) is hilariously true. Oh to be back when cars didn't have so much regulatory equipment on them.... One reason why I will never spend the extra $$ on a hybrid, and will be skipping straight to all-electric when they become more affordable. 

Seriously though, you must do this, it's all the rage here in Portland:

Its actually miles per KW, but the idea is the same. Fuel economy on a full electric vehicle is far superior to that of a gas powered car.

Or MPGe, or miles per gallon equivalent.

So appropriate, since I'm from the area of ex-Yugoslavia.

We even have a Yugo cup here:
