As we share the knowledge of all aspects of the automotive industry on this Forum, we have to take a step back and share such knowledge wisely. Some people let their passionate heart overcome their sensible mind, and it can get a bit ugly. However, we can all appreciate honesty and respect towards one another in sharing our enthusiasm.

Be honest. Be respectful. Be enthusiastic...
Good post. I totally agree with Phil.

That LScamino does look pretty good. Maybe it would look even better on a 460

Instead of just appreciating effort it became about "what is right". Everything gets dissected. People beat up vehicles. This brand sucks. This is not low enough. Too much chrome here. That is dumb. Staggered on FWD sucks (well it does ). Blah blah blah

Stop the judging, stop the negativity, stop the crap. I am not expecting a perfect Clublexus, CarChat, relationship with your favorite Hooters waitress but lets put decency first. I am not expecting not to voice your opinion but lets all step back and seeing someone's passion for whatever they are doing to their car (this includes us trying to contact Acura corporate and getting the designers into rehab "YES WE CAN" )

Dub, VIP, stock, JDM, Ricer, Racer, Domestic, Euro, Russian, Asian, flush, South American, Australian, douche , chromed out, murdered out, show car, race car, Donk, Diesel, Hybrid, EV, VIPSTYLE, etc etc etc just enjoy it for what it is. You don't have to LIKE it and you don't have to understand it.
Amen!!!!
I enjoy reading your post and find it very refreshing that I too share those same thoughts as well. I agree that everyone has an opinion. It does seem lately that people seem to miss the point of the purpose of enjoying this forum. There are always misdirected suggestions and comments that distracts the purpose of the persons intentions of displaying his/or her vehicle and making comments.
Your thoughts reiterates a point of why I joined this forum in the first place. I regain a valid reason to continue my presence on this forum

1SICKLEX for President!!!!!!
