There is this dark blue saturn wagon that always drive around town here and always goes to all the local car shows/G2G's. He has a huge wing spoiler on the top of his hatch, blue and yellow racing seats, looks to be 16" aftermarket multispoke wheels panited black, the tires look to have a side wall of like 60 or 65 (just huge tires), and this awful hood painted black w/a hood scoop of course. As far as perfomance he has a huge fat cannon on it , CAI, bright yellow plug wires and I beleive thats it. The funniest thing I find though is that all he does is talk crap to every other car around saying how his car could destroy theirs, how he will race anyone and that its so fast and better then everyone elses, but whenever someone says "sure lets go race" (at the local dragstrip of course), he just disappears and is no where to be found. Go figure.

I will have to admit, I am not a ricer but I do like some of the cars from the movie F&F. I am however going to have to say I am also an old fart as I was and I am a big fan of things from the 80's. So the neon green Mits and the hot blue GT-R are doing it for me. BUT, they better perform as good as they look if they are going to be that "over the top".
