With spring weather rolling in...I decided it would be a great time to take the Cosmo for a cruise to the countryside.
Enjoy...
Near a graveyard...
Scored a nearby parking spot in town...This view is common in countryside towns....Quite narrow streets with huge gutters on BOTH sides...
The Cosmo is lowered but luckily the frontend didn't scrape...If I get coilovers in the future...I might be able to lower a bit more without running into any issues although the current ride height seems nearly perfect. Notice that the rear suspension is compressed a bit from the parking angle providing a simulation of what the Cosmo would look like lowered even more in the rear.
A shot from up the street...Zoomed in...
Opposite view...Thankfully the driveway/parking spot meets the street nicely making it easy to backup and drive out without worrying about scraping...
The Cosmo chillin...I've been wanting to take a pic of the Cosmo at a raised angle like this...Came out pretty nice! (thumb)
I dig this angle...Gives the impression of an aircraft canopy..Just need to add wings and take off! I really dig those subtle grooves in the roof...Part styling..Part aerodynamics?
Beautifully subtle lines...See that mountain in the distance...Truly awesome view from the top!
This is what happens when you're blasting down the highway in the countryside...Major bug splattage!
The name says it all...
On the way back home I stopped to grab a quick bite to eat at Mickey D's...I had a double quarter pounder for the first time in years...They only recently added it to the menu here in Japan. Although Mickey D's is definitely not healthy...I get the "urge" to drop by about once every 6 months...lol
As for the drive...It was an absolute pleasure as always...From mountain passes and super smooth stretches of highway to curvy country roads...The Cosmo performed wonderfully throughout the entire trip. (2thumbs)
Well that's it for now...Thanks for taking a look!
