Here's some news for you:
Cars, and all the industries surrounding them, are meant entirely to make the poor poorer. Not to make your life easier. Period.
Edit: DirtyBird, nice Camaro! That's the V6, right? I grew up thinking that bodystyle was the coolest! I just recently (February) bought a forest green, 1994 Camaro. It's the newer body style though (it looks kind of like a rocketship), which I don't think was as cool.
I figure that the guys talking about riced-out cars will appreciate this.
Before that, though, I had a 1987 Camry, which I modified extensively. Here's the mod list (all installations done by yours truly):
Fake plastic spinner hubcaps
Flame decals on the hood
Cobra head chrome shift knob
Radioactive chrome badge on gas flap
Various pinstripe decals all around
Decals of dice, skulls, and flames all around
Sound system (4 Blaupunkt speakers x50 watts, two 15" subwoofers in trunk)
Modifications I got the car with when I bought it:
"Legally totaled" status at DMV
Smashed in right side (no working doors on that side)
Ejector seats
All mirrors broken
And more!
It died an extremely tragic death (it was drawn out, traumatic, and expensive) and is now a small cube.
