So cross dressing drag queen... Double negative... So a girl?


They are the twins!

I like functional cars for those wondering. They can look good as well.

Not gonna lie when I was 14 I remember I wanted an EK coupe with an EVOIII body kit white tenso passion 5s and underglows that was back in the day when Fast and furious came out. Hence the Dawn of the Rice Age. The trends these days though I guess people are somewhat understanding sorta.

I mean c'mon most of us think the rocket bunny kit is cool. The Stance trend is what's hot right now is it functional? No. Do I think it's cool? I think it is, IF done modestly.

Would I do it to my car? No! Am I being a hypocrit? No I think Hellaflush is cool with modest camber, I think body kits are cool still if they look proper, and if you fix up your car for yourself and not others I respect you more.

What I can't stand are people who will go up to your face and tell you your car is stupid and ugly. Do I have an opinion about peoples car's yes but I'll keep them to myself.

I think this tread is more of a comical rant and to not be taken serious. Because let's be honest here we all have an opinion about people's rides. Cause if you are annoyed you should look into hondatech (hater tech) those people do not care they will tell it to you how it is. They will let you know Voodoo is real and it we'll totally mess you up.

So everyone Rant on this thread is very funny!

Agreed - I heard in a documentary regarding street racing and a lot of police interviews that any kind of stuffed animal or thing dangling off the back means that the person driving the vehicle wants to race (and therefore encourages street racing), but I'm not sure how accurate that is.

My personal pet peeve is when people smoke the shit out of their tail lights, so that they're just completely black and (unless it's night time) it makes it very difficult to see if they're brake lights are on or not. Not only does it (imho) not look good, but you're just increasing the likelihood of getting into an accident on account of the person behind you being virtually unable to tell when you're braking in the daylight.

I took pics of a new mod and posted it, just like 95% of this forum. Whether they're Bride seats or or a drop in filter, you'll NEVER see me claim im a "baller" or act like an elitist. You won't see me stick suggestive decals on my car claiming im something I'm not. I work every hard for what I have while still maintaining my family. Im not some teenager still living under their parents roof (which is fine), rubbing in how great I have it.

Check the "Come race me bro" thread, apparently every other driver on the road is your nemesis.

I'm fine with people putting spoilers on cars, but when it starts looking like this?


That poor Miata..


Also, what I don't find the appeal of...When the wheels of the car are coming outward? When the tires are at an angle. I just don't get it. Why?
When I was getting a new laptop there was a brand new Honda accord with their tires at an angle and dropped low. Idgi.


In general, the trends I can't stand is how big SUVs are getting.WHY?
Camry's having god-awful amount of HP, making people appreciate cars like the 86 less and less.
All the audio controls on the steering wheel.

Like the situation that happened between Ferrari and Chris Harris. Basically Ferrari tunes their press cars to make them better than what the consumer product is. There's a good article on Jalopnik about it but I can't pull up their site from my phone for some reason.

The name of the article is "How Ferrari Spins" if you're interested.
