Let's all agree that the practice of modifying a car is, in itself, impractical and unnecessary. But it is a hobby that many of us share and enjoy, and that's why we spend the money. Therefore, arguing about whether or not one should mod a Camry is pointless; there is no logical reason to do it, except for the owner's own enjoyment. That's what it's all about, isn't it?
IMO, I don't think 22's on a Camry have ever looked so good.

Plus since I'm a car audio enthusiasts I'll have some sort of after market audio as well.

THis is generally true. However, I do know some big time Ferrari Chat owners that mod their cars. I think it has to do with the age thing. The old time Ferrari guys probably wont touch their car, but the younger .com millionaires do whatever pleases them. I for one (If I were ever so fortunate to own a Ferrari) would mod mine. Gotta at least get some nice rims and a Tubi Exhaust Plus since I'm a car audio enthusiasts I'll have some sort of after market audio as well.

Persoanlly, no matter how poor or rich I am, I have to mod something on the car. I can't keep any of my cars 100% stock for long. I am one that believes no car is perfect and ALL cars are a compromise. Even the ENZO. After all, it has to pass CA emissions.

This is true. I think it has to do with the Ferrari history. Lambos used to come with Alpine audio stock Persoanlly, no matter how poor or rich I am, I have to mod something on the car.

We're talking about modding cars, aren't we? So when I say it's a 'turd', I mean it's not a good platform for mods, not that's it's a bad car. I know the Camry is a good car. My mom's Camry has been reliable through hundreds of thousands of miles of abuse. It's relatively comfortable, and the interior's decent. That's not the point though
The point is the Camry is absolutely one of the LEAST sporty and LEAST unique cars in the world. For the price (a loaded Camry isn't cheap) it is the LEAST unique and among the LEAST sporty cars you can buy. If you want to use that as a platform to start modding, go ahead. I'll stick with buying cars that I don't see 50 times a day and were actually meant to look good and perform well from the outset. At least then I won't be playing catch up if I do decide to start modding

So then my guess was right, you're simply using the term "turd" in your own way. I'm not one to say if something is right or wrong but you, my friend, are WRONG. Now take it easy. Nothing personal. I personally think that if someone has a car that is ALL over the place then modding it to a point that is stands out above the rest is a great reason. I know you are saying that you are not hating on the car but if you were just upfront with it all you wouldnt be getting flamed like you are now. Should have just posted "I hate Camrys and think modding them are stupid". If that was the case then theres not too much to write against it. You would have disclosed you do not like camry's for modding and thats it. this thread would have only been 2 pages at the most. Man up next time and it will clear up a ton of questions/comments.
