Anyone who buys a MB AMG vehicle (i.e. SLK32, C32, etc.). Remember that no AMGs have manuals.

It is your car, do what you want to it.
Save your money and don't buy the electric sc's though.

I mounted an aluminum wing on top of my stock srt6 wing to help with downforce at high speeds, it works great and I am a lot faster now. I also took my center caps off and painted them JDM pink and green for that "tuner look. My friends in our car gang love it! I added 4 cinderblocks to the trunk to lower the wheel gap and even it out as well.

When are you going to hang the fuzzy dice, install the Pep Boys seats, and change the dual exhausts into a 2-1 fartcan system?

You do realize that without light weight Tuner Lug Nuts, that the pink and green paint is actually losing power, right? Swap those in and you'll be mistaken for a Ferrari in no time.

So are we back in 3rd grade trying to make the new kid at school feel unwelcome? C'mon, let the guy do what he want's. There are PLENTY of things that just about everyone here that posted have done that makes me think WTF but to each their own. If you think he's ricing his car, THINK that. It's one thing to give your opinion and another to be condocending. Just my two cents. I'm not a fan of some things but you don't see me coming off as an @$$ about it. Cut the kid some slack. He's brand new, probably just got the car and looking for a way to make it more unique. I'd bet a lot of people on this forum think I'm a lunatic for tearing apart a brand new car and doing some of the things to it that we are doing but then there are the others that applaude it. It's just like putting stickers on a skateboard or doodling on your book covers. It's you trying to be you.

End Rant

I think that most of the people who have been on the forum for a long time, and have paid sticker / near sticker price have the strongest opinions about this, and are voicing them.. I could be wrong though.

Lets face it, the people that paid sticker price probably weren't expecting the car to drop to the prices they are today. Seeing 16 yr olds getting these cars, wanting to put interior neons (i know, I did it), huge subs in the back, spinners, etc. kind of makes them a little upset about their car.

I realize at 19 now that at 16 I did want to do the same things. It's just an age thing. (Kinda.) Having paid near sticker, now I see where the people are coming from. It sort of puts out car into another class.

There is no reason that the purchase price of a vehicle should dictate how people respond to it. Look at the Cadillac Escalade or the Ferrari Enzo. Two completely different cars both driven by completely different people. Some purchased that SUV as it is a very refined luxury sport ute. Others purchased it, tore it apart, put 30" rims on it, tv's in every headrest, door and wheelwell, seats that have more colors than a bag of skittles and more speakers than an Aerosmith concert. Same with the Enzo, some purchased it because it's the pinnacle of automotive engineering and a hallmark of design and purpose. Others buy them because they are rich little brats that have no idea what makes that car appealing to enthusiest and only buy it because they are tryign to keep up with or best the next guy and will crash them on the way to rehab, and then move on to the next million dollar ride.

It's not a civic, this is true, but if it was as rare a car to be held in the upstandingness of automotive acclaim, why are they being priced 10-15k less than sticker with not a mile on the clock. the real people you should be pi$$ed at is chrysler for making too many of them or pricing them too high to begin with. Don't be mad at some kid that bought the car and wants to do what he want to do to it. I mean why should anyone do anything to this car if it was perfect from the word go?

I do not care what kind of car it is, placing multi-color wheels, fart can mufflers and electric superchargers on it is just plain stupid.

This thread is fantastic!

I don't think an e-s/c will give anyone the results they are looking for. Though it would be cool if there was a centrifugal or roots-style charger for the non-SRT6 crossfires.

ChuckNorris has one in the works. Just wants to do some testing before he makes it available.
