As the old adage goes "there is a butt for every seat". At least some of those derrieres are attached to perpetual adolescents who taste, and outlook never progressed beyond their 16th birthday.

Now prosperous enough to indulge their whims, only those cars that will go fast, look cool, are obviously expensive and will not inconvenience them will do. At its core, it matters not what make of car it originally was, only that it will fulfill those conditions.

When questioned about the appeal of their modified car, often the reply is "you can get there and get back without problems." So, it's not about the car, only about the driver.
