Let’s see a show of hands of how many people turn their heads and notice when a cool car drives by. Now what about when a lowrider goes by? I’ll bet there are a lot more hands up now. We all see cool cars every day, from vintage and hot rods, to exotic and luxury cars, but none of them are quite as special as the lowrider. With its deep metal flake paint that sparkles in the sun, to its plush interior complete with gold trimmed everything, the lowrider turn heads.
Why is that? What makes a lowrider more special than anything else on the road? Is it because they have a song written about them? The fuzzy dice? Their own Kindle magazine you can subscribe to? Maybe it the horn that plays La Cucaracha every time one pulls up. I say it could be all of the above and then some. How about the way a lowrider with full hydraulics seems to dance in parking lots and at car shows? Or maybe it could be the attention that is put into building each one and how much the owners care for these cars.

Whatever it is about lowriders that make us smile, it’s not like any other car on the road. If you have ever ridden in one, you will know what I mean about them being very low to the ground and the ride being as plush as your old couch. Many lowrider builders will install sound systems that are so loud they can be heard from blocks away.
As you can see, the appeal for lowriders has something for everyone. Looks, performance, showmanship and sound, lowriders are special in many ways and they are one of the only cars that will put a smile on my face as wide as their brightly chromed bumpers. Visit your local car show and look for the lowrider section. They will be the cars with the biggest crowds around them and everyone with a smile on their face.

I’ve seen low riders at car shows before. They’re pretty fun to look at! I have no plans to ever own one myself though.

I love lowrides. What really makes me love them is what they can do in full hydraulic mode. I wish to have one so i can pull some attention when caught in traffic or at a car park.

That is the way it is supposed to work but you have to be really good all year. Help your fellow man, do not lie, cheat or steal. That sort of thing. Stuff we should be doing anyway. So yeah, i hope there is one in your driveway this Christmas.

What Really Makes them Stand Out is The Person Behind the Machine!! The Genious Behind the Plan, Who Gets so Creative and Dares to do something different..
In my junior year in high school (1980), which was at an all-girls Catholic school, I had a 1968 Chevy Impala–navy blue with a white vinyl top. I was hoping to get a boyfriend who would turn it into a low rider… but with strict Filipino parents, that never came to fruition.😂😂😂
