Default Just a comment: Why do people spend thousands of $ lowering and tuning, FWD, 4 cylinder, auto stick,
1996 Honda Accords?

Just drove behind a guy in a tinted, lowered, rear winged, wide tired, FWD, 4 cyl Accord with an auto.
What exactly is the point?

I mean, if you are going to look fast why not do it to a car that is actually fast?

Just a rant...

Individualization! Everyone can't afford audi's and many don't care if their car is fast.

There are plenty of cheap fast cars. If they don't care then why make them look fast?

Default It's just the style. I seem to remember a low riding cruiser style sometime back.
Thank goodness that fad passed. ;-/

The most blinged out Jettas are often 4 cyl autos. Couldn't afford the 6 AND mods.

Do think, I agree with that. Some of mods they put on to make it look fast, aren't cheap.

Default i'm one for not giving fast cars to kids in the first place..i say, fine if you want...
to make it look different...but the last thing we need on the streets is every (brainless) kid with fast cars, they really don't know how to handle in the first place...and have no responsibility.
