Because it looks cool? I think those mini donut rims/tires look retarded on everything except Japanese cars.

I have a love/hate relationship with tuners, while I think some of what is done is pretty cool, some of it is like wow that's just silly.

I don't understand why people who modify Japanese cars are called "tuners".... Can't European and American cars owners also "tune" their European and American cars? Not all American cars are big hulking V8's (SRT-4 anyone?) nor are all European cars just all about the "engineering" (Ariel Atom anyone?)...

If she had been Asian and was also putting her makeup on at the same time, I would've had all of the cliches there at once.

Best one I saw was someone changing clothes while driving down the road. Just lol.

Would've been exciting to tailgate her then lay on the horn for 10 continuous seconds just to provoke a reaction. Of course, there's a good chance that no one in the vicinity would survive the reaction.

Seeing other people drive like idiots, doesn't mean you should drive like an idiot.
2 idiots = potential disaster.

I wasn't being serious.

Oh sorry I was using short hand. Yes I suppose they can be. Sorry, I have a love/hate relationship with modified cars regardless of country of origin. See how much less of a ring that has?

Yeah, but there is a lot of connotations in the automobile world. There are those that are biased against certain cars purely because of their origin. For example, I think Italian cars are unreliable. Is that a fact (Alfa Romeo) or a baseless opinion (Fiat)? My grandpa owns a Fiat that has well over 350,000 miles on it and it's STILL going. The engine was never rebuilt, the transmission and clutch still work (clutch has been replaced only 3 times), and he only has to clean the carb before every winter. Does this stop me from thinking Italian cars are unreliable?
