Red e30 convertible and some other 1980s cars spotted near the beginning of the film when Ice Cube is in the school bus...

The e30 is cool. Flat nose 911 convertible was pretty sweet too.

Lots of American muscle too

Have any of you ever seen an e30 at a UK show/meet bounce like the cars in hip hop videos. I'd love to see this in real life:

You'll notice a bagged E30 is generally not met with good reception on the E30Zone, still, each to there own

Fair enough in reality it is probably an expensive novelty. I'd love to see it in action though but would never do that to my car which I've kept original.

It would be bloody useful for getting stuff in and out of the boot though - drop the backend on its arse and you don't have to lift so high

Being vertically challenged, I used to drop the air suspension on my old Disco to get heavy stuff in the back. And when the jockey wheel broke on our car trailer, we didn't have to lift a fully loaded trailer up to the tow ball, just drop the suspension, reverse back and raise the suspension lol

Air ride is one thing, to set it up so that the turd 'bounces' is a completely different ball game and it would be best to start with a car that is unlikely to fold in half. IE NOT an E30 !

Have you downloaded the sound track and recorded it to tape Pete?

No but I did get 'lost' in Compton 20+ years ago in a rental '68 Cadillac convertible . That should have been a warning to me where my life was heading !
