Wow this is an awesome thread. I got my first coupe at 16. I had that bullshit ain't care mentality for a couple of months then started to paint my rusty old coupe white then got totaled. Pick it up for 700. Then got a hatch with insurance money for 1500. Clean, straight min rust, DHO chassis. ( I'm a nerd look it up not a lot are left). Going on 6 years I believe. Drifted it, crashed it and drove around looking like shit during college. Finally painted it, and "brought it back to its former glory" so to speak.
Biggest thing I've seen personally in the community( east coast wise) is no personal style. Everyone is doing something they see online, which is cool to get inspiration but change things up just a little. Also self centered peeps. Like I'm always trying to help other 240 owners out but it's getting played out because everyone is just using everyone. Also a lack of just good vibes. I have OG peeps I met at my first 240 meet and we're still friends today. But that number is getting smaller and smaller every year. I don't even hang out with other 240 guys. I just want Bro time and good vibes. :,(
