A few times a year every ear I hear or see a story of "the car stalled, went out of control and crashed". No the car didn't go out of control, thr person didn't know how to control the vehicle with out power assistance the car will still stop answer steer it just takes a lot more force to do it with manual power.
i stalled my hybrid many times but I do have emergency back up power installed for the electrical Power steering and braking system...

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Some will say that a car with side skirts, kammback, or boattail looks better than stock.

Given equal fit and finish, of course.

You can do a lot with just the stance.

What is the speed difference in pulse and glide? Is it 5 mph?

I installed an air dam on a 1970 Ford Falcon and greatly improved stability.
