A small/small medium car of the compact/compact sedan/compact sports breed, i.e. foreign makes such as but not limited to Honda, Toyota, Mistubishi vehicles, that have been modified with various after-market parts in an attempt to make them better, faster, and more appealing to other owners of cars of the same type and style. Another trait associated with Import Tuners is the link between them, their owners and various forms of street racing, as is accurately portrayed in all of the Fast and the Furious movies and the game, Need for Speed Underground. The "usual" age 18-30 drivers of these cars usually are looking to prove themselves on the street and are most commonly:
1. Young Asian men of the wankster variety.
2. Young White men, commonly of the wigger or wasian varieties.
3. Young Black men with "whips" who act like/are posers/pimps/gangsters.
Possibly the most defining marks of an Import Tuner would be any or all of the following:
1.ABOVE ALL, a large, fat After-Market Exhaust Pipe that produces a loud, deep sound upon sudden acceleration, this action done at times when a fair amount of traffic is present to produce the desired ego high.
2.After-Market Taillights/Headlights, usually of the newest LED varieties.
3.Custom Decals/Paintjobs done to make the car look fearsome/more powerful than others in a street race.
4.Large Chrome Rims and tires to fit, sometimes too large for the vehicle but added anyway.
5.Under-Car Neon/LED Lighting systems, such as StreetGlow.
6.Any other various and seemingly out-of-place performance/aesthetic parts such as hood scoops, roof scoops, spoilers, carbon-fiber hoods/doors/panels, colored brake boots, chrome-parts etc.

A terrible driver who believes he is very good and drives a very bad looking car usually downgraded wich he believes it is upgraded and good looking. Most of them have scratches and dents on their cars caused by their terrible driving or by someone who was walking by and felt revolted and disgusted by looking at it and atacked it.
Guy1- Hey, look at that wannabe tuner.. that loud annoying sound coming out of his stupidly big exhaust that gives the car no performance at all... ridiculous...
Guy2- And he rolled down both windows so we would hear his horrible music better as if it wasnt loud enough.. (face palm)
Guy1- What an attention whore...

a true high-performance sport compact car, as opposed to economy cars. these cars actually perform, or have potential to be tuned to such a state. they usually are more expensive. they might be domestic or imported.
visually customizing these cars actually holds water because they perform.

A stupid ass rivalry to determine which vehicle class which is the best that mostly retard rednecks love to bitch about.
Pros & Cons
Tuners
Pros:
Looks good on the outside and sounds smooth on the inside
Has a good variety in manufacturers (ex. Nissan, Toyota)
Able to turn well
Good gas mileage
Cons:
Not as fast as Muscles or Exotics
Some engines in some models can be rather complicated
And are often defined as shit (or ricers) by Muscle Heads and Exotic Aficionados
Muscle
Pros:
Loud ass sound in the engine
Known for being fast for years
"No replacement for displacement"
Equally fast as Exotics and more faster than Tuners
Has a legacy by manufacturers (ex. Dodge, Chevy, and Ford)
Cons:
Only legendary at Drag Racing and NASCAR
Can burn up gas like a suicidal chicken in hell
The result: Muscle
(but personally I really don't fucking care I like both,
why bitch about it? I don't know)

Muscle Head: Tuners vs Muscle which is better, personally I think Muscle cars are the greatest car ever made than some shitty gay ass ricer whatchamacallit? Neesan (Nissan) Handern (Honda) Massa (Mazda) so which is it?
Me: I really don't fucking care which better, I like both, I'm not going to waste my time or my life saying which better, each has their pros and cons.
Muscle Head: Um, well my Hemi can but your car in a second, let's race
Me: Fuck off, please
