The thing about JDM, is it's something that only a select group of people that truely care about imported cars can point out, and it's something that instantly connects you to others.
It's like how retards hang out with other retards, they have a connection, for being the same.
When I see another retard with something JDM, I know I can go up and talk to them, and get along and make friends and not have to worry about them being gay.. Silly gay people.
Either way, having that little extra touch of something hard to find and JDM makes the people that look for that stuff get goose bumps from seeing one little thing that they can't get, or whatever.. It's a nice little culture, a little family..
Everything can "look" JDM, it's called Bugen. Bugen strut tower bars and emblems and blah blah blah.. Bugen has the same look, with none of the performance, and half the price. I see more Bugen than Mugen, which is fine with me. I may pay out my ass for Mugen and JDM stuff, but it is what it is, and not everyone everywhere has it. Go on with your Rota's and your TenzoR racing seats, I'll be chillin with my MF8's and Takata harnesses.
