Ok - to be fair. Europe and the US has its fair share of tuners who come up with ideas that could be best described as putrid. I can think of a half dozen self proclaimed "exclusive" tuners who somehow thrive by making complete mockeries out of great cars.
On the other hand, the UAE is home to some very concentrated wealth, and along with that comes obligatory conspicuous consumption. If
everybody on the block has a CL65, the neighbors are suddenly finding new and crazy ways to do a one-up.
I guess what makes places like Dubai and Bahrain stick out in our heads is the uncanny wealth of exotics to be found, and along with that, a proportionally uncanny number of ridiculous chop-jobs.
On the other hand - I've never been to either of the places I just mentioned, so I'm pretty much talking out of my ass. MJaaFY - please correct me if I'm off-base here.
