most of the people in usa don't like to spend more than what their car is worth when it comes to the vip scene....thus you will never see it here.

my thought on this is that little to no enthusiast are in it for the long haul. building these cars to perfection takes execution and planning, then money. you'll never get there if you're selling every set of wheels you buy, your suspension, etc.. vision your car the way you want it and dont stop til you get there.

thats one thing i can say about JDM tuner cars; they know exactly how they want the car too look in the end and they dont stop til its perfect; which is the reason why you see so many proper DC2's, S13,14, EK's, AE's etc.

thats why i like the path im going with my gs, slowly and meticulous. that way in 3-4 years it will not only be my perfection but a inspiration and icon to others.
