Here is what I think:

To each, his own.

If you want to try to make your car fast, go for it. If you don't then don't. But don't call names and insult people for having a different opinion

I think lowering an ES300 looks dumb but I don't knock people who want it.

Exactly, granted we all know there a performance chips offered to make the ES' faster which are not worth the material they were made with. However, to argue with guys that have done it and prove with point after point that they know what they are talking about?
Too many, no no no donkeys...(what do I mean by that...)

Another thing... I feel that a lot of people that HATE mods on ES' why waste your time reading the thread. For example, I'm not a huge country music fan, I don't go on youtube watching country music and then comment on how much it sucks. Same thing here if you don't like chrome rims.. and you see a post "Check out my new CHROME RIMS" then it might not be your cup of tea. We get it your not feeling it, got anything helpful to add or just an opinion? You can't make an ES fast on a budget or if you aren't willing to go all out. No one is has said it is easy, however it is possible.

Wow, a simple thread, just asking a simple question, which in turn exploded into this . . .

When is the last time we wanted "respect for our cars?"

Again, are you 14 yrs old?

And I'd like to hear you guys bash EEngineer's and I friend who has a 750whp '94 Camry. I mean, THAT car is his prize car. NOT his 1100whp Supra on stock internals. ****, his Evo is his beater car.

But yeah, not like it's worth me even posting as you can;t change an idiot's mind.
Sorry but that made me LOL. Who's the dumbass, the guy with a pristine Supra that could sell for 30k easy, or the guy that thinks the suped up sports car $3000 Camry is the best thing since sliced bread? You're the only one here throwing insults at everyone on this thread. You are bashing everyone here that says a Camry / ES is a family sedan, so yes, you are right, you can't change an idiot's mind lmao.

I have a friend of a friend of a friend with a GTR, and a friend of a friend with a fully built Supra also. Do I care? No. I have a full inventory of my own.
