This is a good post that i can really relate to because i'm one of about 2 or 3 friends that even likes domestic cars (out of over 10 who are absolute car nuts, 3 of which for some reason like volkswagens...ugh....which makes any form of conversation about cars pointless). And am the ONLY one who likes mustangs. I only have 1 friend that actually likes and drives fords as much as i do.

Anyways, most are into the ricer crap and "fast and the furious" which they absolutely love.....ugh.... I absolutely have NO idea why they like that type of modified car. But as stated previously by 91GTturbo, i think it's just a trend that will fade away slightly over time. I think most of my friends are into those cars because it's the "in" thing and that it's "cool" to own one of those cars. I also think it's because it's a "new" trend and musclecars and V8 domestics are "old" or whatever.
To each his own, i guess.
