The kids that do this stuff make me smile. But I gotta think back to when we all were first customizing and tinkering and well it’s all about maturity and where you come from "Your experience". When you don’t have a lot of $ to play with the Folgers can is the easy way to go to think that you have some oomph in you ride, then it’s cheap spinner hubcaps that the kids try and many more crazy stuff that we look at and laugh. At some points you go in different paths because of your tastes. I can tell you the db9 owners are quite uppity but with the $$ you pay for a DB9 you likely are uppity. Now is that a douchebag car and would I be one if I owned one? No way, but I do like that car, it is a sweet ride but I just hate labels because it usually indicates that one is not comfortable enough with what he has and uses negative labels to make themselves feel more worthy or better than the one they are labeling.

One great example is my buddy who has had the Maserati, the 911, the Lambo Gallardo, the Honda S2000 and now the Skyline GTR. While at the same time also owns the GMC Yukon and the Audi s6 (another beast of a sedan). Do you know what one of his favorite cars is after owning all that hardware? The s2000, he just loves the revs of that little engine and how fun it is to drive. Now how could we even begin to label him? He is the international car man of mystery and just loves cars, and I am right there with him because I don’t care what type of vehicle it is Japanese, German, Italian, British, I love em all! Oh and enough about the ricer terms, that is so old now. What is meant by that really are we a bigoted forum as well?

Now if you don’t like a car fine, but people that drive cars whatever their reasons good or bad, there is just so much else in the equation that makes their choice of car more interesting than simply a douchebag choice.

I will bow out now; just sticking up for the douchebags cuz some of us on the forum own some of those cars
