You haven't spent any time in Brooklyn or the Bronx either. We call them
Ghettomobiles. Small FAT tires on $2,000 rims mounted on a $500 car with a
$3,000 stereo. Often accompanied by neon lights, rotating license plate
bracket lights, tinted windows, free flow exhaust, and a spoiler. Beware of
the STEALTH STANZA or the COMPETITION COROLLA, vintage 1983.
