(n) 1) A (usually Japanese) car with a mostly plastic exterior to give a fierce and
aggressive look, however sadly lacking in engine power.
Often accompanied with a 4 cylinder or less engine, which is rated for
insane horsepower values at even more insane (and unsustainable) RPM values.
Torque is almost non-existant in these engines.
2)
Generally, any person or object with flash and style, but lacking in
substance.
