This I think is BS...It's like pulling over a young black or latino guy driving a really nice car, I guess he must have stole it right? ...Of course 90% of the cars with that stuff are ricers that do dumb s#!t on the road, so it's hard to argue with the theory. ...I still think that they should have to be doing something in order for probable cause to come into play and for them to be inspected...Maybe this will force all the ricers to go with the "clean" or "sleeper" look...

I still see this as only having an impact on the ricer/import community...Your average Mustang, Camaro, and Vette owners probably won't notice the difference.


i doubt it would make anyone change to the "sleeper" look cuz then sleepers wont be such a big deal when you get your ass handed to you by one. i also notice that some domestic owners have become more "ricer" than import owners as far as racing from light to light and being plain ignorant. example :the dick in the early 90s 5.0 mustang sat. night on broad (a tach and stickers on your window dont mean shit ) this is no disrespect to mustang owners that have a tach and stickers with something under the hood to back it up i know who those are when i see them

yea but 96% of import/lowrider 'tuners' are a bunch of terribly dressed piece of shit wiggers that start ridiculously gay, terribly fought, fights everywhere they go. it's a dumb fad. it'll die down eventually. cant wait

i think its all BS...only because when you buy a car its YOUR FCKING CAR.. you should be able to do whatever you want to it..i dont understand what the big deal is about modding your car..only becuase they maybe think that we are going to go race or something..if anything tickets for racing is understandable..but as far as looks/motor wis its stupid..butt only when the modding is done right and not half assed..ie. cut springs camber obivously off, exuast falling off..ext ext... lots of cars are coming from the factory already moded allitle..srt4...ext ext...i think its all just away for the city to make some money of tickets..i guess paying taxes is not enough..
as far as exuast, the loud ass harley bikes have some exuast...but thats ook ... lol its just stupid to me.. are love for cars is getting thrashed...

just my 2 cent

What a tard, they have a reason, its for your safety and my safety. Not everyone buy's quality parts for their car's ie: people cut springs.., take cat's off, put tires that can endanger people on the roads ( slicks)

it's etc., not ext, and you only have to say etc. once. People don't take you seriously if you sound ignorant.
