I just find it offensive, because Honda owners get a lot of shit for the stupidity of some, and many 240sx owners are ignorant, "anti-Honda" fanboys despite the S2000 being a very good car. Owning both an S2K and a 240 gives me a different perspective, and I appreciate both cars for what they do well in different areas. I just wish they went for more of a serious performance build on the S2K to break the stereotype a bit more, considering how big of an audience they have.

Did the whole idea of him putting in #toonsoonjunior really fog up your whole opinion on these guys? Did you even watch any of the s2k videos all the way through? Even on other builds he's always defended his s2k since the day he bought it. I honestly get why you're not into them and I'm by no means attacking you for your opinion. I'm not even trying to sway your thoughts either, just trying to see how you came to the conclusion that these guys are total ricers lol

Not sure if you've seen this video, but it explains everything and it even made me feel like Honda owners are targets for misplaced scrutiny.

PS don't watch passed 6:30~ mark.
