except for the quote, which was a contextual point, I don’t think I called anyone names… and yes it is all marketing, I find interesting that in japan and other places in the world, the cost of living vs. wages is much higher then here… yet ‘they’, the tuners, don’t seem to find it an issue to spend 75% of their net wages on their cars… Attitudes and the environment here, in north america are to blame mostly… the real tuner craze for small cars started way back, even before I got into tuning in early 80’s with the small datsun and toyota pickups… but it wasn’t until the civic and the ‘cheapness’ of the car to buy, hack up and replace, came about that the ‘sport compact ’ industry took off. That ‘cheapness’ and continued cheap and uncaring attitude is now the most pervasive description of the sport compact scene; ’ rice/ricer’. > [@I think my Taurus is cursed](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/i-think-my-taurus-is-cursed/14122/17): > > thats becuase not many people have the loot to make a top end car. > > so the cheap parts are put on a “topshelf level” to make them seem more worth buying. > > its all in the marketing. > > and keep in mind you dont have to call people names to get your point across. > > dont be so abrasive, people will accept your opinion much better. > > GT --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/s14-carbon-fiber-interior/109495)._
