I figured I'd make this thread for fun. When u see a tuner drive by or in a lot, pics. what are some things that annoy about the builds?
example: I cant stand all black rims, makes the car look dirty. And I hate the sound of an exhaust without a CAT This post has been edited by Lil-Joe101: Apr 2, 2012 - 11:57 AM -------------------- From Japan to Texas my st202 follows me.

It made me chuckle, I wasn't offended at all, It sounds like I hurt your FEELings. I did not intend to. Most of the cars I grew up driving have been crushed by now. I never got to go to driving school, my family didn't FEEL it was in the budget. I have been driving since age 13, I used to drive flag rig for my stepdads wheat combine, yes it is legal, it is considered a farm vehicle. I am 45 and have had one accident that was my fault, 4 accidents total. I have driven fwd, rwd, 4wd, 6wd and a half dozen or more track vehicles. Tanks, APCs, armored recovery vehicles as well as almost any farm impliment you can think of. I can't afford to come drive your road course, not that weather in the PNW would even allow it this year. I personally like back roads, gravel, rocky, FEEL your head hit the roof roads. I don't think I am the greatest driver in the world by any means. I am sure Skip Barber would not approve of some of my methods. I personally like manuals because you can FEEL the engine turn over while push starting. My son bought an auto because his wife wanted an auto, and well, you know how that gos. To some of us money is an object, he got a very clean 98 z28 with 60k for 6 grand. I will tell you my kids don't look down on anyone, regardless of what they drive. I am very proud of both of them. They are great human beings which has always been my goal. It isn't anything about your comment, it is this thread and the site in general. Bashing anyone, isn't what this place used to be about. I know I am too old for this place, and it is long past time to move on. This site used to be a great one, it wasn't built on words like ricer or noob. I met people here I would consider some of my closest friends, hell I even flew out to RI for a meet once, with some help from those friends. Any one of them are welcome at my home any time. I am sorry if I hurt your FEELings I did not intend to. 97, you aren't too old for this place but I think you're seeing that the maturity level of the forum has waned recently (within the last 2 years or so) as more of the original/elder members/moderators has stepped back and/or are moving on. Manny, Dustin, yourself, etc. are all moving on to other vehicles or in life and aren't around to police the forum like it used to be and with the inflex of people asking about things covered in the stickies all over the forum its become less "home" and more "zoo" at points. I don't think the intention of this thread was to bash but to list the things that annoy you about the import scene - things owners do that personally annoy you. For me, it's not a judgement call or me bashing anyone but more along the lines of having more respect for your vehicle - if you're going to mod it do the best you can with what you have even if you're limited on funds if you do it correctly instead of half-assed that's real dedication and I can respect that. /soapbox rant PS: I thnk you've hit the nail on the head though with your last paragraph. -------------------- Has no more Celicas
