LOL! I've heard that before.

The best was when me and my buddies cruised up to the streets of schaumburg and these middle eastern guys came up to me and my friend. They had supra's and wanted to race us. I was interested, so I told them what was done to the car, just CAI at the time. I then asked him what was done to his car. He said a turbo! I was like, yea no ****! After he told me that I was like no thanks.
