If I wanted attention, I would buy a civic, put a big wing on it and paint it lime green.
I drive the biggest of the grocery-getter models and the thing that I like most is that it's not another honda/ toyota in a sea of tastelessly modded imports.
If you want recognition in an import scene, buy an import...Red, I hear what you and Davo are saying, but bear in mind, this isn't limited to the "import" car phenomenon, but sport compact cars in general. The J-Body cars and the Focus have become embraced by this community, chiefly due to the amount of aftermarket support. So while the "ricer" vibe is making it's way into the american car scene, whether we like it or not. Furthermore, even the European sports sedan scene has publications that cater to both current cars and late model cars that aren't sold anymore...
