The smartass in me won’t let me resist the urge to holler at them “hey, I know somebody who can fix that!”.

I cringe at the teenage hotshots who buy the oldest, crappiest Honda or what have you that they can find, and then they sink more money into enhancements for it than the car itself was worth. Yeah, that fake spoiler looks awesome!
Usually, these same guys’ cars will be so low to the ground there’s probably only about a couple inches of space between the frame and the road. More than once I’ve seen these cars go into a driveway that dips suddenly at the curb, and CRUNCH!
Some do still have the hydro-pneumatic suspension (like the larger C5), but mine (a Xsara Break) doesn’t. Peugeot bought Citroën in the late 70’s, forming the PSA group. As a result, Citroën no longer makes excentric dreammachines like the DS and the CX, but in fact they now make, well, Peugeots with a Citroën badge. Not really, I mean, the styling is still somewhat “Citroën” at times, but the cars are definitely not as exciting anymore.
They have gotten more reliable though, which is why I bought one. I need my car every day, and fortunately, a modern Citroën can finally live up to that expectation. 
For those of you (like me) who like to laugh at cars that are trying to LOOK fast but are obvious 4-cylinder pieces of shit with maybe and exhaust mod and a Type-R sticker (DUUUDE, the sticker adds 15 hp ALONE!), I humbly submit the Rice Boy Page
Be sure to check out the “Adventures of Rice Boy” section. My favorite:

Yeah, that site and Beaterz have the best comments! Too bad neither one has been updated in three years.
