    I like fashion but I fail to see any point of paying $200 for a hangbag just because it has LV written on the side. Maybe you should be the one who thinks before talking.

    For example; Flyin' Miata has an exhaust for my MSM for $600. Yet I found a custom no-name exhaust that gave me the exact same dyno results for $300.

    Guess which one I bought?

    You can still be "in fashion" and with the "scene" without wasting your money on stupid sh*t that really has no better quality than something from your local department store.

    I fail to see the point of modifying your car, you can still have a stock car and be in the scene.

    Do you see how stupid that sounds? Good. If you dont like fashion great, but some people do that doesnt make them stupid. It makes them "fashion enthusiast".

    Sure you can, but it's about functionality when it comes to car modification. Whether it be a $100 part or a $500 one, if they do the same thing then I'm not going to waste my money just because it has HKS or something stamped on it. Are you going to modify your Prada handbag? Maybe upgrade the handstrap? Yeah okay.

    No, but I can see how you try to twist things to your favor. Good effort tho.

    Like I said above, I'm all for fashion and looking good. Yet why would you spend $400 on something that does the same thing as something that cost $50? Just because it has a name on it? Yea, real logical there Einstein.

    My father bought my mother a handbag for $300 for her birthday. Why did he pay so much for it? Because it had some stupid name stamped on the side. Whoopie! To be completely honest, the bag isn't even that great when compared to the bag she got at J.C.Penney. Complete waste of money.

    Do you see my logic here? Or are you still living in a world where you have to spend big money on stupid sh*t to be with the "in crowd"?

    Nope I live in the real world where stuff that you think is stupid really matters. Sometimes nice things open up doors. It doesnt really matter because you wont ever get it.

    Your purse is going to open up doors? A sad world it is.

    Nice personal attack in there too.

    It is sad, but thats how things work, have you ever had a corporate job, a business meeting with bankers. You dont show up to meet the people loaning you 6 million dollars wearing blue jeans a drifting shirt. No you show up in Prada, or Ralph Lauren. You follow yet.

    I'm trying to see your point but I still fail to see any justification for spending big money on something that is no better than something that is cheaper, just for the sake of having a name brand.

    For business affairs, I pretty much just show up looking decent with a clean polo shirt. It gives a sense that care for a clean, solid appearance, but that I'm also a laid-back, realistic human being. I don't use material fashion to promote myself and I don't plan to. I can use my personality and past experiences to speak for me.

    Take your loan scenario for example. I think that by holding a good credit score and history as well as solid work ethnic (if starting a business with said loan) will speak louder volumes than showing up dressed like P.Diddy. If you really must spend lots of money on material things just to have people think that you're something special or so you'll be fashionable, then that's pretty sad. That, by the way, wasn't a direct attack against you. Just in general.

    To each their own I suppose.
