When you see people driving nice cars, like S2K, that don't even know what "aftermarket performance" means.

Like people who never rev their car past 3-4k.

wit an s2k, youd burn about 95% of "racers", while your bone stock... i guess they dont feel the need to burn 96-99% of the "racers" out there and spend some big bucks

Sounds kinda bigoted to me. So what if some people don't want to add aftermarket parts? I don't need everybody to do like me just to feel secure. And the street is not the place to drive all-out, so naturally they're not going to try to redline all the time.

Naw, wad I'm saying is they buy a high perfromance car like an S2K designed to be pushed to the edge, and they drive it liek a grandma car.

If ur gonna drive like a grandma why not buy a Buick or something.

I have to agree kinda.

I saw a guy the other day with a brand new M5 driving down the road and I thought to myself, "He doesn't even know what he has."

Sure enough he pulls off the road into a business with a steep driveway and I see the front wheels come off the ground just a little.....it confirms the fact that money can't buy brains.

i think that most of them drive it conservatively on the street, and push it elsewhere.

Contradicting what you [edit- morpheus] said: I hate it when people can afford expensive cars, but beat them to shit by racing every single person that revs on them, and buy a new, more expensive car the next year. but thats just my opinon
