I made another reply:
Originally posted by Jeff on DSMtuners.com No, see that is the entire point. That kind of attitude is exactly what I am talking about. I am sick of seeing these cars going to the junkyard. DSMs belong on the road and track raising hell, not rusting in a pile of rubbish in the middle of some muddy fenced-in field. The more uninformed assholes there are out there, the more these cars are being destroyed. Pretty soon seeing a DSM on the road will be a rare occurance and that scares me. I grew up having these cars around and they not only taught me how to properly work on cars, but also a lot about life. I have life-long friends now because of DSMs and I can't imagine these cars that have meant so much to me be destroyed by some moron who has no respect for what these cars mean to so many people.
The same goes for the assholes out there that buy perfectly good DSMs, then chop them up and sell the parts on Ebay. These people are DESTROYING our hobby and a huge part of our life every single day. It is horrible to imagine and it makes me sick. Do a search on ebay for "Talon" and see how many destroyed cars there are. People saying stuff like "We buy running cars and chop them up so you know everything will work!" Or "we part out ALL our cars no matter the condition!" That shit kills me every time I read it. Is there nothing that can be done about this? Destroying people's pastime for a buck. Fuck that.
