That's the reason I got rid of my beloved '06 Si. That and as they get cheaper in the secondary market the more desirable it looks to those that'd steal it and strip it for parts to make their POS DX into a Si.

I particularly find it fascinating that some folks will hate on the yellow FR-S, then put neon purple rims on their car and think that looks good. As I said above, bad taste.


There's a Ferrari dealership a block away from my job and I have to admit their metallic/pearl yellow is really nice.

You don't like what buddy does to his car? That's fine. Either don't say anything, or ask why he's doing that.

Personally, I like the way it looks when a car is laid out with a bunch of camber. Would I do it to my own car? Probably not.

Edit: on second thought, maybe I will do that to my car this summer simply to invoke the rage of some people on here who can't appreciate someone else doing what they want to their own car with their own time and their money for their own enjoyment.

haha do you not have alot of guy friends? Ripping into each other about car decisions is normal. Also just because you like the look doesn't mean people that don't need to be quiet.

Well I somewhat agree with what you're saying. Its better to have a positive atmosphere where everyone is free to creatively express themselves without fear of being harshly criticized for not conforming to society's standard. Its like an automotive hippie mentality that not everyone shares.

But on the flipside, don't be too sensitive and confuse constructive criticism with "hate". The word hate is so overused, that I think today's youth have no idea what real hatred is.

And lastly, why should it matter what anyone else says anyways? Because if you really feel upset over others' opinions regarding your car customization, it should make you stop and think: Am I doing this for me, or am I doing this for someone else's acceptance?

you know thats what I thought, until i went to the site, i expected to see 50 degree cambered cars with the kitchen sink on top of its roofracks, but i was pleasantly surprised, there are some very very nice cars on there. not really a stance website to be honest...well below the minimum amount of retardness and rice to be call stance.
