Forca!

Portugal beat Denmark in the Euro Cup the other day. I don't know about where you live, but my street went absolutely batshit, and if you went for a stroll here, you could see something like this:


Look, Toronto isn't Los Angeles, so lowriders with hydraulic suspension aren't exactly a common sight. Even more interesting is how something considered peculiar to Chicano culture has crossed over the Portuguese-Canadians who can only take these things out maybe five months of the year, tops.

Frankly, I love it. Ridiculous, imprudent, impractical - it's all of this, but besides, what the hell else are you going to do with some no-handling sledgelike '70s or '80s Detroit coupe? Drive the fucking thing? Hell, no. Parking as performance art - that's the way to go.
