    To 87 Turbo II.... its time you finally understood that most people could give a sh!t about what you have to say. Here is why.

    I'll describe the person you remind me of.

    Your the guy at car meet that shows up in a stock 87 FC talking about what one day he will do to his car. He will also talk about some FD rx7 he wants that will be a track machine. As he goes through his fantasy world. A VIP Lexus pulls into the lot. The Lexus parks and you immediately start talking trash about the car because its not following the

    W-I-D-E rubber

    clear turning signals
    LED bulbs

    Coupes and targa-toped cars
    mild window tinting

    -philosophy. You keep going and going until you realize no one is listening to you. This is because everyone has realized you talk out of your ass about sh!t that doesn't exist and they all go to the guy that complements other rides for being different and starting no beef with anybody. He is the same guy that took his car and built it to specs he liked no matter what other haters said.

    Soo.....

    You get upset.... You jump on IA and try to look cool by posting against another member that you really dont know. A guy you try to make look like a fool. This member is an I.A. O.G. that needs no words against you to get respect. You continue to try and look like you are defending yourself when the whole time, you digging your pit of stupidity even further.

    __________________________________________________ ______________

    Mr. 87 turbo..... All i have to say to you is this. The reason you drive an rx7 is cause somebody was different and decided to keep going with it no matter what others (very much like yourself) said. Understand?


    On a final note..... i guess your only real debate that makes and sense is function.

    Well i wonder why they are called puddle lights?
    I wonder why the 2008 Subaru Tribeca luxury package is sold with them?
    Im sorry something that keeps you from getting your shoes and pants wet is not gonna cut corner time, but lets no forget........Function....according to you.....Its lacking.

    Alright, so after the other poll thread I started, I actually understand the true purpose of puddle lights, and I'm absolutely fine with the functionality aspect of that. I mean who wants water in their shoe...honestly.

    The thing that is going to bother me extremely about these (and what I'm pretty sure is going on with the car that was originally is posted) is when I start to see people riding around with them on. And if that is indeed the case, they are nothing but a new version of neon.

    Notice that I haven't stated anything negative about them (or neons). I'm simply stating that if you think riding around with those on is a completely different thing than riding around with neons, you are under a delusion.

    Ok DEKE, now that you understand the functionality, YES you typically ride with those on. Its not for everyone and if you don't like the look thats fine. You can turn them off. It's personal preference at that point.

    Here's a vid to give you an idea.

    Before you get confused, it's a

    1. Toyota Crown Majesty with Celsior head and tail molded.
    2. Interior ~ Not Bippu at all!
    3. I think you'll like what's under the hood!

    More important, don't miss the part at 2:29!

    Deke watch this! ~ OK everyone else too!

    I didn't even have to say a word, did I? Funny how that works.

    I already told you once that anytime you want to compare cars that I'm game. I go to a ton of meets and anybody who's anybody knows who I am and what I drive. I'm not hard to find at all. Although I'm willing to bet that most meets/events are past your bedtime or you're like a lot of the keyboard warriors around here that talk a lot smack online yet don't have the tic tacs to show their face anywhere. I have a feeling you're one of those too.

    I bet you have neat little wish list for your FD, don't you? I know you probably do. Most guys like you do. It's ok, we all know how that is when we wish upon a star and hope that Santa Claus/mommy and daddy buys us car parts to make our car uber fast. Kids your age are like that. Nothing to be ashamed of.

    Seriously now, why don't you answer my question? We all know the answer and the sooner YOU realize that...the more mature you'll seem. Just WHO ASKED FOR YOUR OR ANYONE ELSE'S OPINION ABOUT ANYTHING IN THIS THREAD????? Answer that smart mouth. Wait, wait.....I'll beat you to the tired old punch.....here goes.....this is what you'll probably say...."Ummm, yeah, well I'm "entitled" to give my opinion anywhere because this is the net and a forum and cyberspace has no rules and IA is uber cool like that to let snot nosed wannabes put in their stupid .02 all the time...." Right? That's just what you were going to say, right?

    Save your breath punk. I was already on IA and hanging out with true OG's when you were still in school trying to figure out which way was up on a vagina. So like I told you earlier, before I start getting PM's from real OG's with your whole family's SS#'s and skeletons in their closets, save some time and heart ache and just move on. I have yet to even give MY opinion on the "puddle lights"....you know why?......because NOONE ASKED for ANY OPINIONS. So again like I told you earlier, you have no clue what I like and don't. Just leave this thread to what it was......someone showing something to all of IA. He didn't ask for YOUR opinion nor mine, so there is no need to give it. We all know everyone has them just like a$$holes. As you've proven here, some stink more than others.

    Wanna have any more debates? Let me know. I'll be happy to oblige, just not in this man's thread. Let's make our own and I'll be happy to match wits with you if you think you can hang. If not, then STFU and send your opinions to Dear Abby or Dr. Phil.

    Aww, I didn't now you cared. It gives me the warm fuzzies

    That car in the video is badass no doubt. All I'm saying is that riding with puddle lights on is the new neon. It's light shining underneath your car while in motion. Notice again I've said nothing negative. I just think its insanely nonsensical that someone can bash neons and love puddle lights. That's all.

    I also still don't understand the whole Jaime being insanely defensive and pissed off. But what do I know, I'm just a silly newb

    PS I got reps in the Puddle Light thread I started saying nice car. Haha, thanks man!

    I typed a mini essay and you still don't understand? Is that because you go to GA Tech????? I'm seriously just playing.....had to get that zinger in there....I'm a Bulldog fan.

    It's simple my friend. I don't like people that go into a thread where NOONE ASKED FOR OPINIONS only to give negative opinions when they themselves have no clue what they're talking about. Mr. Turbo II who likes to put his negative .02 in everything from photography to what looks good and doesn't, yet he has only began to live himself and doesn't drive a 360 Modena. My point to numb nuts like him is STFU and just watch and learn. There are a million threads on IA right now that I don't agree with. Am I going to waste my time in going in there and putting in my .02? No. When they ASK for opinions, then you're fair game. IF YOU DON'T, then all the haters that come are just that.....HATERS. It just happens to be that Turbo boy was the one that did it in this thread. Next week it will be someone else.

    Like I said, I'm not messing up the OP's thread anymore than we already have. If someone else wants to debate with me about anything, let's go to our own thread. I believe I've now made my point abundantly clear.....

    ^^^Fixed your reply. All I heard was and a bunch of .


    Stop messing up the thread. From now on, I'll delete all unnecessary posts. We've both made our points. Like I told you, if you want some more humiliation....start another thread for just me and you and we'll go at it. If not, then STFU and let this thread be.

    IMO any light on the outside of a car that isn't a signal or a headlight is pointless.

    EDIT: To clarify, I see the use of puddle lights, but I think it is pointless to take a picture with them on (unless the lights happen to be preventing someone from stepping in a puddle at that very instant).

    Newer bimmers have the LED's underneath each door handle and mirrors lighting up the car and ground around it when it's unlocked with the remote.

    I think there should be a motion to ban people that can't read.

    You obviously refused to read any posts i've made on the subject.

    The first part of my post wasn't thought out completely, but the edit explains it further.

    You can write all day that such and such luxury car has puddle lights and they work wonders making sure your shoes stay dry. However, I do not think they add positively to the looks of a car at all. For that reason, I think it takes away from a picture if the car has its puddle lights on.
