I think he was kinda joking when he said it though. He seems to like his car, it's pretty modified.

I'd definitely trade interior for a lightweight car anyday. Do more driving than I do messing around in my interior. Only interior mod is white led lights so I can see better in it at night when I need to. Also a zzp sticker on a piece of silver dash trim but that's it. It's stylin enough lol

I like the interior I see new cars interiors and sometimes I like it would be nice to have but they I think I don't need it and you really can't make it your own interior with the newer cars

I also like how our cars are sleepers without the wing on the back. I wanna go with the small spoiler or wingless but I feel like is need to be low to pull off wingless.

Definitely lower than stock.

Stock height, wingless, debadged = super sleeper. But then you won't ever get raced, so if you like being challenged then it's not for you.

Switching to the m3 spoiler of the highrise has cut my "he trying to race me" by 90%!

I need to do something along the lines of that.

Every time I go to pass a old person down here they speed up because they think I'm being a douche when really they just aren't even going the posted speed limit and it holds traffic up.

If I had a low rise wing I feel like I could get away with passing people without them trying to box me out.

I'm close to Chicago, on the Indiana side. Once and awhile I'll get a chance for a race but I get more compliments for it then anything else. I love the laser blue metalic on my car.

So I had a buddy from work that has a titanium Ford Fusion. We've been talking about getting a few runs in. Finally had a chance to get a couple runs in tonight. Let's say ecotec vs ecoboost, and I walked away no problem. His car is stock and I'm running stage 2. So it seemed pointless but hey why not?

Let me start by staying I usually have very few encounters with people even though I'm always looking, and even then it's usually just someone flying by or whatever the case maybe.

I pulled into mcdonalds today to grab some lunch before I was going to wash my car and there's a guy sitting in his newer f150 in the spot next to me. I saw him roll down his window as I rolled mine up so figured he was going to talk to me. Asked me what I had done to it gave him a quick description headers/2.9/e85 and he was like oh what do you think you have for horsepower? I replied, being alittle generous with 280.

He immediately replied with do you think you could beat me? I was like well your truck is alittle heavy and he cuts me off and says the weight of his truck with his tools and kids in it and proceeded to tell him he'd race me right now for 2800$ and a pink slip. I was like...nah man I'm all set thanks and he's like well you think you can beat me right? I was just like I don't see why not. He asked me if I ever tracked it I said no told him about some wheel hop issues and what not and he was like oh its manual? And I said yeah 5 speed and he goes pH you'd definitely beat me. And I'm like oh alright...

I walked away and told him to have a good day after he told me I had a nice car. I was like what the hell just happened??
