EGOS bigger than the CARS!!!

[civic95]

Some points of what you said i agree with , but damn.. do you even like cars?

I spend money on my car so i can enjoy it as you said in your last line but the fact that i want to drive a car that is capable of 11's in Atlanta traffic is my perogative. if you want to drive a 17 second civic thats fine(no offense). i dont build my car for the weekday commute i am going to build it for whatever i want be that road racing, auto crossing , drifting or drag racing. it just so happens that i would rather spend all that cash into one car then make a actual race car and have a nice happy dependable daily driver. I cant stand to drive slow cars. if i wanted a slow car that got great gas milage and was reliable and got me "from point a to point b" safely i sure as hell wouldnt be looking to do anything to it other then change the oil and put gas into it.

But you do it for yourself, because that's what you want, not to impress others. My car isn't a 17 second civic, but it's not an 11 second civic either. And I'm happy with that, I don't need 400 HP for what I use it for. Thats all that matters, not what anyone on this site, or anyone passing me on the road thinks. Sure I could make it run 11's, but that's not going to make me any better, and that's not going to impress anyone because it's been done plenty of times. Thats what this thread is about isn't it? Basing your ego off your car?
