imports suck because to my friends who drive TA's and Z28's it costs way too much to make it have as much power as a stock TA or Z28.
then again, i argue there is the fun.
another problem is that imports got a bad name from SERIOUS ricers. i don't mean 1 or 2 decals, i mean REAL RICERS with *** cannons on a civic trying STi's or trying Corvettes. and I KNOW YOU'VE SEEN or HEARD about those ricers. it's the bad rep.
i saw an assload of ricer videos online that made me want to sell my 6thGen and buy a Z28. it was just stupid, but i then i realized we are fighting the good fight. we are proving a point but building our cars to our standards, and more important, to sensible standards. we know the three major bolt-ons won't make us fly past an Evo but we know where to go and not go.
i love domestics for their raw power.
i love imports for their potential.
i think it takes intelligence to build and own an import.
it takes a heavy foot and insanity to own a domestic (300+HP plus 100+shots of nitrous, it's typical with domestics)

i've seen quite a few guys in my area that fit that mold. we here, as import enthusiast have to deal with the ricers and the domestic haters. most of the fools running around saying imports suck, probably didn't even know that focuses where imports from europe. to keep up with the import craze, domestic car makers have started building vehicles that are similar in styling to imports. i could go on and on, but i'd be beating the horse to death. i will end with this though... i'll stay with 4cyl gas saver over v8 gas guzzler any day.
