I don't think I am into the "scene" really. I personally like imports, but none of my friends do, and there isn't a huge import craze here either.

I'm really into it though, even though I don't have the money to mod my car like crazy... yet

I've been into cars since I was a kid. I started with imports about 3 years ago. I started seeing some nice ones all modded up. Then I bought my civic. I would much rather see a fixed up import than a fixed up domestic. It takes more to make an import fast. Somewhat of a challenge.

exactly. domestics... just throw a bored v8 in it: instant muscle car. (im sure i'll get some flak for that comment )

ive been into cars forever... but not into actually knowing how it all works and what mods do til a couple years ago.
its all come to fruition (oh my... big word on car site) when i joined HS.

Let's see...cars in general since about 96-97 when I started driving....and the import scene now for about 3 years or so...This past year it has really increased....my friends started to do their own mods, I bought an import, and we started to go to the shows and what not...One day I'll have the $$ to do my own mods.

About a year or so. My ex-bf has a Prelude and I'd always be over there when he was moddin it. I'd go to car shows with him and just really go into it. Can't wait to start moddin my own car!
