Funny...because I can remember a torrent of articles calling import "tuning" (which by it's own nature is ridiculous because it's essentially what people have been doing for decades without resulting to lameass catch phrases. Nobody called Carroll Shelby a "tuner"...they called him a badass) the new era of "hot rodding". Then they made the first "The Bi And The Curious"... errr....The Fast And The Furious (tastefully ripping off the name from a racing movie from the 50's) and people blamed it for all sorts of shit. The fact of the matter is that people were doing stupid shit before the first F&F and they'll be doing stupid shit long after it's over. So either the F&F movies ushered in a new age of dumbasses or import "tuning" (or import modification) is the "new era of hot rodding". You get to pick one and only one.
