99CLK320,
One makes their car look like a race car so the person can feel like a race car driver even if they don't have enough money to make it to the track. ever drive the freeways in and around Nashville. Stay out of the left/NASCAR lane or you will get your *** run over by by a pickup truck driven by a race car driver wanna be. Why do you see Cadilacs parked in front of trailer houses. Its a display of wealth even though the owner is not wealthy by most standards. its all just an illusion.
