My own personal favorite useless add-on is carbon fiber trim. How many horsepower does that add, especially per dollar spent?
Or what about a noisy exhaust for thousands of dollars with almost no performance return and great nuisance value?
Yet I have never heard a whisper about the value of these.
Floating whatevers are cool, especially on a Rolls-Royce.
I have never made a cosmetic modification to any vehicle I have owned over 50 years. There is a natural tendency for people like me to look down on others who buy luxury cars mainly to be seen in them rather than for what they can do. Modifications that make their cars stand out have a definite logic for them, but provoke eye-rolling in me. Yet I am a small minority and by some definitions I am the abnormal one, so I try to restrain my contempt for the majority.
