  Like who? You? Maybe then You could make it the way You want
it. Obviously he wants something different from his car and
that's the great thing about America, he can do what he wants to
with it. Just like this thread on type R stickers and the Rice
Boy "look". Hey, there are some people who buy a car that looks

Sounds like Frank wants somewhat of a "sleeper" car. Quiet
(something that doesn't attract a lot of attention from being
loud), clean looking, but still fast.

  Yeah, and if we wrapped your hands in a "Type R" sticker you
wouldn't type as fast, and maybe you would settle down a little.
