I don't know why your so concerned with everybody else's cars. Let them do as they please, to each his own. Most of the contours that you see that are very low have ground controls and can be adjusted. Usually they just put them that low for a picture. As far as the audio system, what constitutes too loud? I love my 300.00 circuit city system and don't know what I would do with out it. It consists of an eclipse HU, mb quart components in the rear doors, vifa/mb quarts in the front doors, 2 PPI A300 amps, audiocontrol 3.1 line driver/EQ, and 2 JL audio 10w3's in Jl's HO ported box. I didn't put this together because i want a hearing aid in twenty years, I did it because I enjoy the musical reproduction that it's capable of and makes my drive more enjoyable. Yes it's tuned for SQ but I'll make sure to swing down your street and show you what 2 10's can sound like.  Oh and for the record, i have magnaflow mufflers with 4 in. tips 
Like I said in my original post the reason why I am so concerned is because I have to put up with those cars everyday. I have a right to not to hear your system from a block away. You definalty spent alot on your system. Congralations. You wasted alot of money. All those components for about 100 cubic feet. If I see you coming down the street I be sure to leave a few 10 penny nails in the street for ya. And about lowered cars, I have been behind two cars in the last month that had to slow down to about 20 to go over dips in the road. That is just stupid.
So it's a waste of money, TO YOU!! The fact that my stereo sounds amazing and I enjoy it very much is plenty of justification for the money spent. To put nails in the street because of someone's stereo system makes you sound like a jealous tool and quite frankly if you did that and I knew it was you, trust me, I would ruin your day. I just don't understand why you care so much about what others do to their cars, afterall your not driving it so calm down. Oh and here's a pic of my car in it's riciest form including my coffee can mufflers that are very restrictive.

What do you mean by that? Sure consider it ricer or whatnot. What do you own anyways? We havent seen your car on here at all. People either love or hate my car. And you know what? Thats their opinion. Alot of people around here and anywhere I have had my car in person have gave it props. Other than the jealous people walking the streets. From your first post my car does not match anything. I do not have a 300 dollar cheap system. If you check my page I put alot into it. My car is not lowered yet but it will be after this winter. I am going to get airbags. Then I can lift and lower my car quickly. The roads are [censored] up here. One last thing Farcus: If you dont like where you live why did you move there? You try to come off like a hard worker with money....move if you can then.

You talking about me??? I mean my car is slow no matter how much I moddify it until I get some real money. It's faster than plenty cars out there though, but still slow. I don't want the touring to make it look fast, I want it to make it look good. Same as the body kit. Why drive a SLOW and UGLY car when you can drive a SLOW and NOT UGLY car?  I like yellow.

LMFAO! I wasted my time reading this thread, and came to one conclusion... Farcus is a stock Contour driving "George Costanza" type from Jersey. Dude, I'm sorry to say that, but you don't need to whine so much, or name names for examples, it's just rude--show pictures or something.
That's cool you're a hard worker, but so am I, and I figured out how to live in the city, yet away from stupid stuff like that. Even when I lived in north Minneapolis(dangerous), I didn't whine about that stuff, because it's only going to bring you quicker to an embolism, heart attack, or stroke. It's not worth it!
If it bugs you that much, attend city council meetings, talk to the news, or move. You paid for the house, that's your fault where you live. Deal with it. Giving the world the finger, whining about it, or putting nails in the street doesn't address, or change anything, except making people angry, or worse.
I'm just giving some food for thought... 
I think, I tinker, I play around, I build.
