The act of being so incredibly late that whenever you do arrive, you find one person from the group left alive and extremely hostile. The rest have been tortured, skinned, killed and eaten due to extreme anger and excess time to act on it. Upon arrival you will become mad at said survivor for being irritated at your tardiness.
Me: I've been waiting for Howard for such a long fucking time.
Bob: When was he supposed to get here?
Me: 6 hours ago. But every hour the rat bastard tells me he will be here in 10 minutes.
Bob: Oh that clown fuck is tuner late!
Me: (wielding shotgun) Let's go egg his car.

At one time, a tuner did indeed mean someone who actually focused on performance for thier automobiles. now its a byword for riceboy extreme, used by those who are attempting to pull themselves out of the mire of trashy, goofy crud that the "import scene" has become. this is quite evident in the article above, where the schmuck mentions "audio" when discussing "performance upgrades". race cars dont have subwoofers, jackoff. have fun driving around whatever piece of shit ricemobile you happen to have.
"tuner car" owner: YO DAWG MAH CAR HAS IT ALL ISS GOT COLD AIR INTAKE A PERFORMANCE EXHAUST TIP AND BIG CHROME WHEELS SHIT DIS THING GOS TOOO FAST!!!

Primary reason for good used honda civics being priced astronomically high, tuner cars have become an icon for the continued irresponsibility, entitlement, and egomaniacal behavior on the public road system of the US today. They have replaced muscle cars as a locus of blame in the grand scheme of percieved danger on the highway. While tuner cars, as inanimate object are obviously not at fault, they do symbolize effectively the continuation of the american inability to reconcile the conflict of ego versus landscape where the young man choses an ideal of control in response to deep seated emotional ignorance. see also motorcycle in regards to this part of def

Nice tuner car, dude. That's a real constructive use of both your time and precious metal alloys. Can't wait to see you out there on the road exceeding the social agreement of speed limitation! You will certainly beat a "stock" Honda Civic to the next red light in your tuner car. And that joker won't know what to do when he catches up and you both stare at each other, at the same red light, in the same reliable, sensible, safe, cute-as-a button compact japanese automobile.
