to us yes we would take care of cars like that, but truth be told is most people that have $50k+ cars have them for a daily beater and can easily afford them no questions asked and dont give a shit about taking care of the interior
now if it was someone that is working their ass off to get their $50k+ car im sure its a different story
Just cause a car is your daily car doesn't make it a beater and doesn't mean you should neglect taking care of it. My SRT4 is my daily car, but it isn't a beater. You confusing DD and beater for the same thing.
Nice, I've known Chris since 6th grade...we've been real close, I'm really close with his whole family... he lives on the next street from me now too (east/west miner)

I think he meant a DD and a winter beater combined.
But yeah, regardless of the price you should take care of it. I don't think matty was making an excuse for them but just saying is theory why they do that. I mean, my car was cheap and I take care of it.
Right now its pretty bad though...too cold to clean it.
He had it coming. I don't know if that was for the "Devil Z" or when he wanted to put 275 or 295 tires on the Caliber, but he deserved it.
I remember it well. I lol'd then, and I lol'd now

Well, like Matty said, these folks obviously just don't care about their cars.
yeah ray i was simply saying they just neglect it because they dont care, personally like i said all of us would take care of any car we had no matter what, but for some people they just dont care about it because the money they spent on it isnt something that really is too much of a concern for them

I got'cha Matty, just underscoring what you were hinting at about how sometimes folks with too much green take shit for granted.
i hate rich people that are rich by things being given to them, i respect the rich that worked their asses off to get where they are and respect the money they have

The amount of money people have doesn't make a difference. Some people of just naturally messy and don't car to clean there car ever. We take car of our cars cause we are car people. Some people don't like living in filth and prefer a clean car. Some respect their purchase and take car of there investment, and some are just slobs and don't car about the king size fry under the seat for 3weeks. None of this has anything to do with rich or poor. Its all the fuck driving the car. Yes some people don't care cause they can just buy another one (and I think these people should be shot on sight), but I guarantee the amount of cars traded in due to "my interior is gross, so I'm getting a new one" is EXTREMELY low.
So Carlin and I have been talking about doing the 50 trim install the weekend of the 21st in his heated garage....I can buy food for everybody (pizza / pop?!?) and we can have a good time installing the AGP 50! I need all the help I can get with this install, so please help me out guys!
