Scrapper

It has always seemed that cars are the one way that everyone gets to see your "status" and for people to express their personal identity.  It used to be that there was only one type of car and maybe two colors, but today with enough money it seems that you can make whatever you are able to imagine a reality.  People today sometimes put more money into their cars than they spent on it in the first place.  We've all seen "scrapers".  Cars which were probably worth nothing turned into monster trucks because the rims are so big.  It doesn't make sense to me.  Why would these people spend so much money on the same car when they could have saved up and gotten a nice, reliable car.  The rims even make the car worse off.  I think that everything has come to the point of excess no matter what is going on.  Every sport, idea, and now car is being taken to the next level as our society continues to consume more in-order to fulfill its growing greed.

You are preaching to the choir Different Ideas. If those guys pimpin' out their crappy cars had any idea what was going on, or what was economical for that matter, they would not be wasting this money.
They are usually already poor, and are pooring more money into this bottomless pit they call there "pimpmobile".
