Bullitt, while I personally find cars to be the most boring thing on the planet, I can understand the desire to make a car look different and fun. Heck, I paint the inside of my house funny colors too. The aesthetic things bother me less than the mechanical things--spending an obscene amount of money to get an extra 10 horsepower, for example. But the most repulsive thing about it to me is the idea of spending so much money on a hobby when you clearly need that money for other things, like rent and food and retirement savings. And that would bother me about any over-indulged hobby; it just seems the "car culture" is a lot more susceptible to it.
