Short and to the point
Ok so, i literally took a break from the game because this mission pissed me off so much. So here's a short little hint for you.

Once you have your car, back it up into the garage to customize it. This isn't TOO important, but it's nice to test out customizations.

Once you get to the mission spot, however, the game will try to trick you in the most underhanded way possible.

You see, when the arrows come up on screen and it tells you to press them as they enter the circle, they don't mean JUST press the buttons, oh no. After five failed attempts at this mission, i finally figured out what it is you need to actually do.

In order to win this mission, you don't just press the buttons. You must press the correct button that tilts the car IN THE DIRECTION OF THE ARROWS. When the camera is behind the back right of the car, or in the front right of it from the car's Point of Viw, the left and right arrows will tell you the way you need to go all right.

But when the camera is on the left side, if it tells you left arrow, it actually means lift the back of the car so it tilts towards the left. Or if it tells you up or down, you actually press right to lift the right side of the car so it tilts "down", or the left button to lift the left side of the car so it tilts "up".

Same with the front left (from the car's Point of View) side. If it tells you what button to push, it actually means tilt the car in THAT direction.

Again: Camera back right or front right, pressing left or right is correct. But up or down mean tilt the car in that direction.

Camera side left or front left (car POV), all buttons mean "tilt the car in this direction".

Hopefully this helps so the rest of you dont suffer the headache i did.

screw this i'll play gta v instead, i wanted to play gta sa cause of the map, but didn't wanna do all the story and missions bull crap, when i play a game, i don't go for story and all that, i go in just to screw around but if the game is gonna be like THAT and the save files i keep downloading just automatically start a new game, then screw gta sa, i get it's a classic loved by millions, including me, but that's honestly retarded

Y'know, back on PS2 I used to love the lowriding mission and excelled every time, but the mission that became my bane at the age of 2 was the house robbery one.

ProtoL Cx, it was the low-riding that's inverted.

I don't remember which one it was, I think I swapped up and down respectively and just that did the trick. After that I had 0 problems with dancing or low riding.
