    Is modifying cars acceptable to you?

    A: Yes
    B: No
    C: If it is reasonable and for the genuine good of the car, not for looks

    yes totally, i couldn't think of a better hobby myself. If i'm not at work or behind the pc, i'm busy with my or other peoples cars!

    i don't care what people are changing, more bhp or better (in sometimes their opinion) looks. People take alot of effort in doing so, and often are in love with their own car.

    btw i'm not gonna say no to a qeustion where my future of investment is in..

    well you see modified cars are basically cars with extra parts which are not suppose to be there but sometimes not all the time, they look good byt as for me i'll rather touch the styling then the engine unless i can lay my hands on NoS nitrogen oxide(high octane fuel)

    If this car has a big powerful engine, than I like it.

    You're talking about after market parts.

    Nitrous Oxide? If you're planning to add nitrous oxide, in most cases, you need to beef up your internals.

    It doesn't matter what people do THEIR cars, different people have different tastes. Unless it's something stupid.

    motorhead, in order to supply NOS to ur car, u need to modify or tune the engine first as it will not be able to take nos juz like that.

    Imagine sending in high octane fuel any making the normal cylinders work on it, the car will "explode"

    Post Modifying cars... good/bad

    1. I think it's cool to personalize your car, and you have a sense of pride after doing it.

    2. buying a riced-out car off someone isn't cool

    3. a GOOD car will look good, and have the aerodynamics and ground clearance it needs for its performance. Making a car LOOK fast is not cool.

    4. a car that doesn't look fast, but IS is cool. Audi RS6 Avant hahah.

    5. purchasing a civic "because it's fast" is not acceptable, and neither is buying it to supe up. Use your money to buy a better, faster car.

    6. If your cousin gives you her old civic when you get your lisence, and you spend a modest amount of money in small upgrades, then whatever, that's better than having a stock piece of crap, but if you can afford NOT taking the civic, and buying your own faster car, or better looking car, then, buy a better car.

    7. Honda's are good for the money, and decent looking. but a huge wing is completely unnecessary. Especially if you want a fuel efficient car. A nice Accord w/ VTec will give you good power out of a small engine, and that's impressive.

    8. S2000's rock.

    ^^those are my varying opinions on modified Japanese cars. Feel free to disagree or agree on any of my points.

    Yes, its ok as long as the owner knows what he's doing. Some people tend to think that just because they have a custom spoiler that they are invincible.
