An idea which became popular in the 1940's lasting through the 1970's, although american, V-8 cars of today could technically be considered muscle cars as well. An uneducated stereotype would infer that a muscle car "Can't be fast" would be false and narrow minded. However a rebuttle stereotype that an import could not be fast is a stereotype as well. As much as muscle car owners and import owners are at each others throats, both concepts are similar. The american muscle car was founded upon the idea of taking a regular commuter car and cramming a high-output, high-horsepower engine into its unsuspecting frame. Which is EXACTLY what the modern day import was founded on. Both groups of automobiles need skill and performance parts to fulfill that idea that they were founded on. Looking at the statistics, a muscle car is no more than a standard, low-output, efficient car that was "slow" until the owner dropped the fabled V8 into the frame. Finally, the American companies (Ford, Dodge, Shelby, Pontiac, Buick, Chevy, etc.) caught onto this trend and begin putting the V8's in from the factory. Same concept applies with the modern day imports as the pioneers started with econonmy-commuter cars with high-horsepower and lightweight in mind. The Acuras/Hondas were fitted with customized turbos, DSM's (Diamond Star Motors) put out the 4G63 series (Eclipse, Talon, Laser,) both of which had great power-to-weight ratios when tuned properly, not to mention the nimble cornering ...

the most outrageous, ridiculous and eye burning outfit you can find, the more you look like the color wheel threw up on you, the better. Pants have to be skin tight, and if you can't pull that off, they must be baggy and at the highest reaching your knees. jackets/hoodies must always be eight times larger than your frame. if you aren't wearing skullcandy headphones, you must kill yourself. the only acceptable goggles are the ones that do nothing for your sight, but are different looking. ***note that this only applies to douchebags that try too hard***

This exists when a female is seen in her ski/snowboard gear and appears to be really good looking. Later on in the lodge as she removes some layers you realize she's not as good looking as you thought.

Sick gear used for skiing and boarding. Adapted from the word Gore-Tex, Bro-Tex is over the top outerwear consisting of bright colors and high price tags. Said gear must be current seasons or next season’s (ultimate example of Bro-Tex) style and can never be spotted on a gaper. If you claim Bro-Tex and your gear is spotted on a gaper, the only way to redeem yourself is to burn the gear in disgust or give the shit away as soon as possible.
