Its really hard to appreciate the presence these cars can have until you see one filmed. I always tend to appreciate my cars more when I see someone else driving it or watching it come up in my rear view.

So what wheels are those? I've look on your website but I don't see them.

I need the wheel + tire specs on the silver-lipped wheels. Perfection.

Much appreciated brother. Took a while to get done.

My Mach E has our Multipiece SV301S. @markboris has our Precision Series SV706

I mostly see my car from inside, that's where I want it to be comfortable, functional, and good looking. I don't care what the outsiders see or think, it's just vanity.
That is weird. We all fell in love with the Mach-E partly because of its styling. I don't think you would have purchased the car if it did not look good from the outside.

Part of the automotive community has always been customizing your car, going to car shows, and showcasing custom work. That is exactly why we have shows like SEMA and renowned automotive buildiers like Nakai San from RWB.

Although I can kind of see where you are coming from, I do not agree with confusing artistic expression with vanity.

That is our Signature Wheel SV301S built in a 22x9 with a 265 Michelin. Swing by our shop in West Sacramento sometime to check it out.

Just the opposite, I think it's normal. I think the car looks fine, though I prefer boxy cars because they have more utility. I bought it for many other reasons than looks. I would never buy a car only because it looks good, as I said it's just vanity.

Strange that you chose to visit a thread titled "Mach-E Looks So Good" only to chastise people for celebrating their car's looks. Seems like a strange series of choices for someone who claims to find appearance not only meaningless but worse that that, simply a form of vanity.

You may want to reflect on what motivates you to try to place your personal hang-ups around "vanity" on other people. Are you trying to prove something about yourself? Or is there another reason you find it necessary to insult others' choices?

That's quite a strange reaction, did I step on somebody's toes? Did I disclose something that isn't obvious to every adult person? Instead of mind reading and assuming nonexistent motives, how about focusing on something objective?

Although I am also kind of an utilitarian kind of guy.. I have to admit that exterior look matters for most people. In cars, in their better halves, homes, everything. Without getting attracted by the "looks", one may not get excited enough to perform the task.

For cars it matters more as it is shown off to so many people on the road It may be illogical, but I think it is true for most people. Cheers. :)

I clicked because I thought it is some news story.

Looks matter to a degree, at some point they become peacock feathers, exposing immaturity or perhaps narcissism. It's only natural (you may say evolutionary) that teens like pimping up their cars because the monkey brain still has significant control over their behavior. What's normal for teens is not normal for adults, and my guess MME buyers are mostly mature people.

I take offense to this! I am a young 50! Barely responsible for my own actions! ?
