This thread has now degenerated into the forum equivalent of "Here come's Honey Boo Boo!".

I'm done.

"What has this car scene come to when people hang their steering wheel out of their window, while driving (unless it was a rig shot), and people actually think that's cool?"

The answer is demographics. The low price of the car for its perceived value is skewed toward the 'younger' population. By 'younger' I mean those that have not yet achieved a direction and a particular responsibly in life, not self-assured, and are striving to be 'different'/unique and are starving for attention. Also, by younger I do not mean strictly defined by age. Like bell-bottomed pants and striped jeans in the 70's we now have pants that must be held up to prevent the brown spots in the boxer shorts from showing.

Oh yeah, it's the next logical move after riding on low offset wheels, with stretched tires, and dumping your car on the cheapest coilovers you could actually afford.

In before: I tried to do the whole ghost ride the whip thing, while still in the car, but forgot I was still in the car and wrecked my whip, yo. #swag

/bro fucking tastic fail

P.S. No bro, I'm not mad - I'm simply awed by the idiocracy that's in effect.

dude, have you been reading the last few pages? It's the elitists bickering back and forth on how stupid these "attention whores" are.

They are sitting back and loving every second of these people getting worked up.

They don't have much more to do or have the opportunity to converse with their friend on more intelligent subjects.

Yeah, I saw your mod list. Looked like a typical attention seeker. Show-off rims, crappy/cheap tires, dreadfull suspension etc.

They are sitting on the front porch chewing tobacco and waiting for the solvent to do its job on the greasy engine parts soaking in the bathtub.
