LOL I'm pretty sure it's just bodykits, wings, hellaflush, stance, stickers, etc.

People buy cars for different reasons. Some buy them just to impress others, some buy them just because of numbers on a sheet of paper or a magazine review, some buy them because they like the way they look, or the interior, etc and some buy them because they love driving them.

None of those reasons is more right than any other.
