There are a shitload of Honda-driving ricers. I'm not one of them and I'm not part of their "scene," to use the term which I have grown to despise. That doesn't really matter, and I'm equally critical of them.

My problem is not so much that this car exists--even though it does suck--but that everyone else with a VW seems to think that it's the way to go as far as styling is concerned. As in around here the cool thing is JDM and if some really JDM'd out car gets posted everyone sweats its nuts. While I can definitely say that a lot of the JDM stuff is pretty pointless (check out my JDM clock y0) it at least doesn't make the car any less driveable.

Well another point to be mentioned is not only the tire not fitting, but why does he need a 10" wide wheel on a FWD car?

traction to wheels that don't put any power to the ground? :dunno:


It's all in the styling, as stupid as that may sound.

Well the Euro scene is all about that style if you can't dig it, :wgaf: It's the same as them laughing at the Honda scene. I see nothing wrong with that VW other than the fact his tire doesn't fit, so I guess that makes me gay :-/
