some poeple like fast cars ..
some people like looking awesome. .

Looking broken = awesome? I can understand some of the trends... kits/flush/low etc... but so much camber the car looks like it is slowly turning into some future hovercraft or james bond water bound (wheels as jets) car?

Looking cool comes first, alot of people dont want to spend a bunch on money on motor crap or a fancy cage, they rather fake the funk...some flush wheels, full aero, coils, diff, and a decent paint job....BAM!!! ur looking fly, and putting in work at all the local events....
Its better then having a tall and sunk ass, 2871r powerd car....
plus snapping neck is the jams!!!

my man!

very nice nackers...

If you need a "stylish" car to get attention... you are doing something wrong.

A car is a device built for transportation... and certain ones have the ability to fully capitalize on that aspect and do it REALLY well... ie: fast. So why do the showy attention craving route first? It's like spending 300 bucks on ripped jeans... congrats. Or wearing in a good pair on your own like a man :p

Cars turn/go/stop. Enhancing that has always been a priority to me, probably because I started wrenching on cars after college years... so I skipped over the entire HS popularity etc.. bs.

As always, this route goes to the agree to disagree route. I just will never understand why people spend time focusing on looks... it isn't a canvas or a lump of clay... its a car. It goes Vroom.

yes, but what brings satisfaction when you go into the garage? plus comments on the car is always nice. an ugly car that performs better isnt as interesting to me.

of course, i do like a balance of it all. but looking cool comes first.

really it is a canvas, it expresses your personality through it just like any piece of art.

I can look at truckys car and see that hes a drifter and "gets it" i can look at a pile of shit with a fully built sr thats riding on stock suspension and 7 spokes and i just think " what a waste"

this doesnt mean im against high horsepower etc.. im all for performance, its just not my main goal.

a wise man once said to me "you cant take pictures of horse power"

Looking good is usually cheaper than going fast.

Unless your d*squad... then its probably the other way around.

if you need a fast car to get attention than you are doing something wrong.

we build drift cars homie, and i dont know about you. but last time i checked drifting wasnt about performance or speed. its about style. i dont care if your car has 500hp out on the track. if it looks like a piece of trash no one is going to care. Its ok if you dont get it...

here you go mr. race car driver

speed is sexy.

there i said it. any style that is performance-oriented on a performance car is hott.

i.e. aero that improves aerodynamics, wider wheels that HELP traction and handling......

not 30 degree camber cuz it "looks cool", but 3* camber cuz it will help you take corners like a champ.

^^^ then you are in the wrong scene

go buy a race car

i had a big post here but fuck it. this is a quote that sums up drifting to me.

Akinobu Satsukawa (au bo moon/burst) 4 door r32

"I've been Shakotann(low ridding
cars) for 10 years but still don't understand the concept of
roll-center. What i worry is how my car sounds and how my aero comes
off....."

thats sums up drifting for me, and i can relate to that, so thats the reason i enjoy drifting.
