explained....

A Boy Racer buys a car, usually an old one (eg 1992) and puts neon lights on it 18" alloys, stupid loud exhaust, lowered suspension etc.

The car probably goes slower cos of the increased weight, but thats what they do.

Now ok the Golf GTI and the Renault Clio Williams are quite costly cars as they hold their values well...and therefore most Boy Racers cant afford to buy AND insure them. So they get the good 'ol AX GT, Saxo VTS etc.


Now we ALL know the Subaru Impreza p!sses on em all and so do many other cars (Tho my Golf GTI OWNZ all)

So, again, make ya choice!

what the hell? none of those are even sold in north america, which probably covers 98% of this forum, so what do you mean 'make ya choice' ????

You forgot an important one

I drove one 8 years ago -- I can assure you it's a little rocket on wheels

Damn forgot about that!!

Renault 5 GT Turbo...Tin box on wheels with a turbo.

I know all about them thank you.

Another example of a mild mannered american, who's able to asses reality accurately

Make one more "American" comment... :|

I am expressing my opinion, much like You just did and everybody else seems to be doing around here. What exactly is Your major malfunction?

Why would I bother researching econoboxes in other countries when i dont like the econoboxes here?

I'll take a VW Polo G40 - err u forgot that in the list too


riced is what the american equivalent of the Opel/VW gangs are doing to their cars (spoilers stickers, exhaust pipes big enough to provide a nice house for a cat etc...) Ricers because in the US its mostly japanese cars that get the 'treatment' and they are more common there

Polo G40 are nicely supercharged but arent a "Boy Racer" car.

They dont look "Hard " enough

I'm pretty sure you are just bashing them because they are French.
French cars are really good (even the normal "regular" ones sold in Europe, South America,...).
You have an astute command of the obvious...

WRC Fiesta does seem appealing

it's a KIA though

your stupidity?

while it is nice to watch Your pathetic attempts to insult me, I would like to inquire, -what it is exactly stupid that I have done? except for the obviously stupid act, - trying to hold a polite and somewhat intelligent dialogue with an american ...

???? Ur tellin me it beats a Golf GTI Anniversary Edition Mk4?

dont think so... its got like 180Bhp! Turbo Charged.

GOlfs are kinda slow, expecially when one considers the hp

meaning: they are too slow for the hp they have
