Why is there such a huge ricing craze?

I swear I see pretty much any car, whether a saturn, pontiac, honda, nissan ect. everyone that's under 25ish has them riced out. Now I don't mind like the newer 'stangs with racing stripes, but I absolutely cannot stand a lowered civic with flames that are chipping off and a fart can exhaust. I just don't understand my generation

That's because of that damn fast and the furious movie. It's not the quality of mods that matters, but how many mods you have... And some people are on a wic budget trying to mod the **** out of their pos civic.

my generation put shackles on their leaf springs to give the car some rake and wide BFG's with crager or Centerline rims, guess every generation has their phases

only thing we knew when you had a slow car and just drive it for 2 purposes- trying to bang women and going somewhere to drink- which went hand in hand. Never thought we had something fast, but didnt care.

These guys really THINK THEIR CARS ARE FAST, lol

I swear it's all show and no go. Under the hood is what matters. I think guys my age must be missing a gene. Drifting I know exactly which one you're talking about, absolute POS. Then again I really hate cobalts to begin with haha
