Some people can't afford $7000 cars so a geo storm, kia, neon, etc. would have to do for them. They do the things they do because they love their car, and they just want some attention. I agree w/ you woogie about all the big body kits, wings, stickers, etc. That's not my taste!!! I used to have a blacked out teggy. I had a add on wings west kit, black rota wheels, tan interior, and I'll admit, I even used to have altezza lights, but took them off later( grew tired of it). I had no stickers or a huge spoiler. I later traded the car in for my 92'sc400 and I got more attention w/ my sc400 than my teggy. My teggy wasn't even on the dealer lot for a week, because someone else bought the car already. Though I grew tired of my teggy, someone else thought it looked nice and bought it. Even though you and I may not like the way the ricer car looks, there's always someone else who's gonna like the way the car looks. I use to be a ricer, so I know where they're coming from. I don't hate the car or the driver, I just don't like the way the car looks and that's just my opinion. To each, his own!!
