Ground effects? It probably only looks huge because I'm so small. :P
It was on the lawn cos there was nowhere else to park it. The afternoon that it arrived, the neighbours were having a party so the whole street was parked out. And then there was a car theft or something, and the thieves dumped the stolen car in our street, so there was this extra stolen car. And then there was the police car that came to check it out. I can't really see it in the pic because I took it later, when most cars had gone.
If I had a lot of extra money lying around, I'd get a body kit for my car. But then, if I had a lot of extra money lying around, I would've bought a more snazzy car than a Corolla. *grin*
:P
No, it usually isn't. We haven't had any robberies or anything since we moved here like 10 years ago. *knocks wood*
Maybe! Or, you get something not as expensive so you can get all the things you want-- or many, anyway-- and not break the bank. Why get a base level Beamer when you can get a suped up Maxima? That thing has jump, seriously. And the upkeep is much less since it isn't a luxury vehicle. Corollas are good first cars. My mom didn't want me too spoiled; she didn't even let me get power windows in mine.
Hah, hah. It's cool. Maybe one day your own Xena will show up and carry you around in her pocket.

Wow, is your neighborhood usually so exciting?

Is it? Hmm. I'll have to mark that down to visit one day.

A hawt Scandinavian Xena, yes.
Good!
