[QUOTE="01yellercobra, post: 16975650, member: 35549"] Just like the general population, the younger crowd into cars is a minority. And I'm talking about the ones that actually modify their cars. To be honest I think there's more options to make a fast car out of nowadays. You just have to know where to look. My kids grew up around Mustangs and fast stuff. My son now has a GS300 with a single turbo swap and a GTI with some minor bolt ons. Both move pretty good and we have yet to start leaning on the GS. My daughter has an ecoboost Mustang. She really wanted a newer Bullitt, but it wasn't in the budget. She's not a wrencher like me and my son, but she'll do her own maintenance and any mods she might want to do. As for the crowd my son hangs with, they all have fast stuff or are working on it. One of them has a big turbo GTI that walked my buddies Hellcat and gave me a helluva run. It's currently in for more upgrades. He's hoping for 600-650whp. Another just picked up a C6 Vette and is trying to decide on headers and a cam. There's a couple more turbo cars in the mix. Most aren't stock. Do I tease them for not having V8's? Of course. But I give them respect for working on their stuff and keeping the hobby going. [/QUOTE]
