Do you think the term JDM is over used..??

[stormcrow]

what's ironic and humorous at the same time is the fact that many Japanese GT-R owners want our (USDM) amber side markers and red rear reflectors. they also want all four of their tails to light up under braking as ours do... they are selling kits in Japan to modify the tails to do just this...

so, i guess in the GT-R world in Japan, they want to be "USDM"...

I can't even stand the term at all now that I have read all of these posts. The only thing I like about "JDM" parts is that they are usually great quality. Using JDM to describe your style is stupid. It doesn't make you cool..well maybe to the GayDM kiddies it does. The term is used too much as a way to up your status in the "scene."

The ironic thing is, is that people who really know whats up are laughin at those guys. Take the whole sashinoya badge thing. I can't help but laugh when I see that on someone's car.

For me, I have a koreisha mark on my car. It is simply towards my car and myself as we are both old, experienced drivers. Later, QD.

Lolol. Yeah, I'm not following some sort of fad with that. My sticker is only about an inch big and resides on my rear glass. Not the size of a basketball draped over my fenders, lolol. Later, QD.

Fuck jdm...My car is CDM! Thats right its canadian!

My car has the jdm engine in it and the speedo is in kilometers and is better than the jdm speedo. It also has heated seats that aren't available here nor japan I believe.

But Honda of japan did make a prelude type s thats bad ass and was only available in japan. To me unless u have a true type s lude then its not jdm enough. And I only know of one person with a type s and its a chick

and if unless u have a real jdm itr,ctr,type s, euro r, fair lady, gto, or whatever than its not jdm... it might look jdm and be clean as fuck but don't say its jdm

Ha, yeah. I can't stand the people who use the badges just to be "JDM." Even if they aren't really bad drivers they still badge their cars. It's dumb, but I like your reason for having it. And the fact that you aren't flashy with it.

JDM is just another bandwagon.
