Apparently you like your 'condiments' in your bank account, rather than to be viscerally experienced behind the wheel of a fine car.

So I say again, Mr. Plain Hamburger....

Nissan gives you a tasty flame broiled burger and a decent bun and says, "have at her!'

I for one prefer my car modded to my personal tastes and see no issue with that. Much as others have modded their cars to their personal tastes.

As for bone stock.... that's like having just enough money for the hamburger but not enough for cheese, pickles, relish, mustard and ketchup. And don't forget the lettuce and tomatoes! And then saying your happy with your plain burger when you know you really wouldn't mind a few condiments....
