Stock basically means un-modified, or as it came from the factory. I think the term came from a term like.. "All original, just like Factory stock"

I don't drive, but when I'm able to, I want an AE86, like in Initial D.
I also like the VW Rabbit, but unless the new one is different from the one my dad had, it runs on diesel. Bad for the environment.

well if you see those cars with spoilers/wings on them that look like aluminum - the ones you'd see from autozone/checkers they call people like that ricers.

there cars that are for SHOW which is usually build up nice exterior but no real engine mods.

there are SHOW and Go which are basically ballers or dedicated tuners who put money into making the car look good and fast too

then there are sleepers, whose cars look like not much or less than stock looking but are fast like a bat out of hell
