It just seems that everywhere in the car world EXCEPT here people understand the defenition of what a slammed car is. Go look at VWvortex or Honda-Tech. There you will find SLAMMED.....not lowered.....cars. Theres a difference between slammed and lowered. I'm not hating on having a lowered car......b/c hell, my car is just that.....lowered. But the OP didn't ask for pictures of lowered Cobalts. Theres already like 10,948 threads like that on here. He asked for "slammed" Cobalts. There a very few Cobalts in existence that have the right to consider their stance "slammed".

Like I said, no hate. Just trying to clarify on what I meant originally.
ba ba ba ba bingo!!!

and whatever that guys name is with the silver balt... your still mad gay.

you just dont get it.. as much as you can type fail and lawl.. people who know what slammed is are laughing at you..

No offense, and I seriously mean this in the nicest way possible..........but all those cars I posted pics up of..........I would guarantee are faster than your Cobalt. So saying they're all show, no go.......makes zero sense coming from a guy with 180whp (which I might add is impressive for a 2.2 ). Because your saying "oh, since that Silvia is slammed, its all show, no go"

haha troof Chase. Phil's truck........is pretty much the definition of slammed.

Your car is not slammed.

Never was.

Probably won't ever be

Get over it or live in denial.

al right. i got a suggestion... just quit now and your still OK... i didnt see you had 180hp out of a ls... that makes you good in my book..

but seriously.. there is no definition of slammed because the way we use it isnt like the definition in the book. so.. its just a known thing among car guys. go on dually forums.. search slammed... honda forums.. search slammed... etc etc... you will yeild the same results... EXCEPT on this website.... and no for the 80th time yours is NOT slammed. not taking away from it in any way... but its just not.

Not to throw gas into the fire, but if sparks don't fly it's too high. Bags & hydros are the only way to slam a car or truck. Yea people do it with cut springs,low pro tires, tiny wheels like daytons, but really tires gotta tuck to call it slammed. Otherwise it's called "ghetto drop". If someone's brave enough, which would be me if I had the money, 21" or 22" on the balt with bags would give it the proper slammed look.

Oh yea, instead of ghetto drop, honda boys call their's "track ready", "race dropped" and I heard this the other night "performance tuned stance"

Hes not the god, maybe just a Duke or something......

But when there are numerous people telling you that slammed isnt the same as lowered, that there is a certain degree of "extremeness" to it, that you really need to be on the ground and you keep talking about how your car is 3.75" off the ground it just makes it seem like you are either A: really slow and not getting the concept at all, or B: being willfully retarded just to prove your car is slammed.

I think you are the only one who thinks it is. Noone debates its low, but it aint slammed, again how can you honestly compare the stance of your car to this and say its in the same class??????

im not comparing to that, im fighting this based ont he original argument.

the original argument was that all the posts before mine were slammed, "omg...its a slammed ____ (insert model here)" and mine was at the same height, if we are at the concensous that no one in this thread has been slammed, then no, i am not at all
again though, ive always ha a little bit of difference in the deff...is that a problem?? no...
until now i considered what you all call slammed as "laying frame"...

so lets just end this argument once and for all with...no one (save for a select 2 or 3 people) on here are "slammed"...the rest of us are just really low
