Okay. It's late. 2:30 am..
I just went to the gas station for a pack of smokes. When I was getting out of my car, I hear what sounded like an import pulling into the parking lot. I look and see this local hillbilly dude in his Ford Contour. He threw on some performance, honda-esque muffler, took the hubcaps off his wheels, sprayed them black, and put some racing stickers in his rear windows. I'm anything but a "car bully"...but are these people for real? I would feel like the biggest ass driving around in a fraudulent "street racer"... The only thing he was missing was the cardboard body kit. I seriously laughed out loud in the parking lot. It's insulting to those of us who spend every day under our hoods and in our cars. |

We actually had a geo metro in town with a turbo and was rumored to be fast and ran 12's. I used to joke around about it when I seen it. The guy lived on my block and had a body kit for it. Turns out he was the real deal, as a guy who builds cars that lives across the street from me named Mike knew of him and sold the guy the parts. But I get what you guys are saying. Not exactly sure how the mods are going to feel about this thread being "existent" though.
