btw- when the most popular and discussed "mod" on this forum is about windshield wipers for what? 3 months? you might want to be careful about making fun of other peoples' non-bmw mods.....

If you want to learn about really modding a car, hang out on the vette boards or any GM product board with a small block V8.

I see very few modded bimmers around here but I do see some brabus MLs and a friend of mine has a supercharged Escalade that dynoed out about 600hp

I wasn't making any aspersions (directly) against owners of Caddilac p/us. It's just that I've never seen them at Home Depot or Lowe's loading up with stuff for work or home, or with a snow plow. So if you aren't using it as a "pickup", why ever did you buy it? What automotive niche does this vehicle fill? The "gentleman" farmer? (ie, rich as Croesus)

I dont want a GM product or any other american made product for that matter because you have to mod or else they look like every other P.O.S. on the road, I wouldnt take a brand new vette for free. All the car has going for it is a motor, I have seen power wheels with better interiors!!! I didnt mean the low self esteem comment for you but apperently it rubbed you the wrong way, sorry to hear that

I got to agree with Gresch very few people on here have performance mods..it's always look at my color matched foglight bulbs or I put on clear corner markers etc...pretty lame in the land of modifications...but I guess a lot of people on here lease these cars so they can't really do anything to them...I see more mods on my maserati board then here and they have almost no aftermarket support

It didn't rub me the wrong way, I was entertained by what I saw as the pot calling the kettle black.

You are obviously a car snob, but that's ok, to each his own.
