^^Scary part is they took the pic to emphasize the "look", like it looks good or something. To me it simply looks broken. I would never want to drive a car like that. Looks like they tried to do it themselves and failed miserably and wanted to share their mistakes with the world.

Forreal this is the uglyest and most stupid think you can do to our cars. Its ridiculous how someone would think it looks good. Like said before it looks broken, like the wheel is about to fall off.

Not my cup of tea. I like driving my car fast. Just like if I had a nice truck. I would use it for it's intended purpose. For me, it would be to tow my Z or as a work truck. I guess for recreation, I would love to go off road with an 4x4.

I don't have any problems with people who prefer to bag their vehicles, but to me it doesn't make sense to ruin a perfectly good vehicle. Or least change it so much that it no longer can be used for it's intended purpose. But that's just me.

I just want to see it bounce. I've never seen a z do the sky scraper. Hows about three wheel motion at least....oh wait, that's hydrolics. Now i'm confused.

I completely agree. I would never do this to my 'Z.' By the same token, I owned a custom-built bagged truck and often responded to the same sorts of questions: "Why would you do that to a vehicle that is supposed to haul stuff?"

Different strokes for different folks, I guess...

well... Most likely they arent rednecks.


I like bagged trucks some lifted trucks are okay but damn.... why a Z. To each his own but its not for me. I would love to get my hands on a 68-72 short wide chevy bagged and chopped that would be sick.

ruins the car IMO...you dont bag a sports car, it takes away from the performance, not to mention adds weight and takes away the Z's handleing.

i have cousins that ride bagged trucks..one has a 12'' lift on his 99' silverado, he also owns a 04' reg cab short box silverado thats bagged (3k set up not to mention 24'' rims) his brother has a 2wd 00' blazer thats bagged with 22'' rims. bagged trucks are awsome, especially ones that have drag blocks and can lay frame. but i would never bag a sports car.

To each his own, I guess. Everyone has their own style. I had a Dodge Durango (a 2WD Durango, at that... ) that I bagged - not exactly the same as a pick-up truck, which is traditionally known to be a rugged, hauling vehicle. But that doesn't mean I don't like bagged trucks, because I certainly do. I really like lifted trucks as well! It's all a matter of style, personality, and taste, as far as I'm concerned... If nothing else, you have to admire and respect the amount of work that goes into body-dropping a truck.

I love the look of some of the slammed Z's with aggressive offset wheels and such, as well. I just know from having bags that my suspension was not a "racing" suspension. The Z is a car that was designed to perform, whether that be at the track or just on the expressway. I know that I could not confidently take a corner hard with bags, as I could before I had the bags and was lowered with control arms and performance springs. Now, maybe this air set-up for the 'Z' is geared toward performance, but I would guess that it's more of an appeal to aesthetics. That is perfectly fine, too. As I said above, to each his own... A lot of 'Z' guys don't track their cars, just as a lot of pick-up truck owners don't carry 2 tons of industrial steel or bales of hay, as you see in the commercials...

I like that people do different things with their cars. It's a form of individuality. It would be pretty boring if everyone catered to the opinions of the masses, no?

Im sure some of us secretly want them for convenience such as: Speedbumps, driveways, driving by places known for police patrol, etc....
