Default Why is everyone so obsessed with JDM?

I really dont understand it? Can someone explain to me. It cost more money to have your car look like a japnesse car. Witch in all reality if everyone is doing it then wont everyones car look the same again?

It must just be me but I like being diffrent call me a ricer whatever you want but a clean looking buddyclub kit on my hatch looks better to me then having it look stock have it be JDM stock or USDM Stock.

becuase why have a body kit when something from the factory is going to completely change the look of your car? not to mention most JDM honda parts fit better than any body kit could dream of.

I think it's because oem pieces fit perfectly and it still offers a clean, different look to your car. Sadly, it's become a fad...I just like my car simple

Why is this in tech?
