Not my car... but a pretty bad ass toyota crown majesta from a shop in Japan called You Zealand... from what I remember, this thing has new flat floorpans (that effectively become bellypans), frame rails relocated upwards, lifted front and rear susp subframes, tucked exhaust, radiused fenders, etc. The radiused fenders are why the wheels aren't tucked even though the car is as low as it is... which imo makes the car look more sleek and low overall, since it looks almost oem to those who don't know what's up; but then you look at the car, notice it's super sliggity slammed, and wonder how that's possible. The radiused fenders also reduce the fender height (the distance between the wheelwell opening and the top of the fender), which visually makes a car appear lower too... notice the fender height of exotic sports cars vs. normal passenger cars, for instance. Ohhh yeah, and another thing, this car isn't on air.. it actually drives at this height on coilovers, and it puts on lots of mileage too, as the owner actually drives it throughout most of japan to shows/meets a couple times a month (and figure japan is almost as large as California, so that's quite a bit of actual street driving, through smooth and crappy roads). The killer pics... are of the car on a track! I'd like to see more people do builds like this in the US...
