I know that the name of the forum is Cal-look lounge but what about German Lookers. No-one likes these cars in here. Lets start posting photos of German Lookers. These cars have a lot of tech on them. Which ones do you prefer and why?

I'm confused. As Richie says, there are forums for German Lookers – indeed, your signature even lists one.  Huh Huh

If you get a hard on looking at road race inspired Supers with T4 motors then you'd be a German Look fan....

Don't take this the wrong way but I actually like them... Shocked

to stray back "into" topic  LOL

and guys dont shoot me  Grin


i like both,  i like the real german look's  that has good suspension tweaks done to it, a nice T4 powerplant  than can hug corners like modern cars

and dislike both..  in some cases

ex:  germanlooks  are the easiest ones to ruin LOL meaning.. kids could senselessly  put some rota wheels, or whatever odd wheels blown to sizes like 17s or 18s
and have a stocker motor, and dropped suspension with no beefing up on the suspension  =   not really hugging corner type of car.. more like it will hug a tree LOL at the next bend

ex:  cal looks  with super thin front tires that u have to drive like a granma on turns.. for the look?   
      amazingly the count of cars/owners in this forum have the right thing going.. decent front tires  thats safe enough for driving wet n dry turns or straights
      and tires big enough at the rear to grip and not spin like its on skates, 


i think  a lil too much of sumthing..  is not so good at times LOL


and maybe i juz like Volkswagen Beetles  in general..

be it taiwan look, german look , cal look ,  shumaguna look  Grin

The lines are blurry, very blurry... the best way to figure out what look it is, is to ask the owner and be surprised...

I think you've answered your own question...

The reason you don't see GL cars here is because its not a GL site. I'm sure its not because we hate German Lookers - I bet lots of people on here appreciate the work and engineering on the good German Lookers, but this is

THE CAL LOOK LOUNGE.....
