WTF is "Hoonigan" supposed to be anyhow?

It generally means "I drive like a twat" or "I am a twat" it all depends on your point of view. In my experience people who have those stickers are complete bellends.

I wouldn't have phrased it nearly as Britishly but this is an absolutely correct take.

Hoonigan sticker on a white vw transporter with neon wheels is the ultimate expression of "I'll run your loving kids over even if they're on the footpath"

Stenhouse? Nah. It's Ricky Roundhouse now.
I saw a Hoonigan sticker on the back of a newer Prius driven by a guy in his 50's or so, which I thought was pretty funny. Other than that, if you're seriously putting one of those on your car you're probably going to end up with a wrecked car at some point from doing sick gymkhana moves.

Hoonigan is the "I wanna be a car guy but don't actually know poo poo about cars but I sure like ken block videos and they seem very popular so imma slap this bad boy on so everyone knows I am a driving enthusiast" badge.

I used to see a MK1 5-door Focus around that was rattlecanned black with lime green accents, with huge [HOONIGAN] decals all over it. Smelled awful and was deafening.

Dude thought he was hot poo poo and would rev at me when he'd see me in my SVT.

When I'm in more rural areas it's not too uncommon to see older Volvos with "Brazzers" stickers or similar stuff. Classy.

The last one is at least a boggling amount of work, and I sort of want to see him try to wash it.

Is "hoonigan" "[a/to] hoon" + "hooligan"?

I do have stickers on my car. They are for vendors who really helped me out with the build for my car. They are on the rear quarter window so they don't obstruct vision. I'll be pushing close to double the stock HP and otherwise look completely stock. That's how you do a street car tastefully.

I don't think there are many people in ai who are missing the whole sponsor/sticker thing.

Or that people who aren't sponsored are cargo culting race cars.

It’s like some people never learned the golden rule: If the company sent you the parts for free, the stickers go on the car. If you paid retail for the parts, the stickers go on your toolbox.

Figure it out.

I'd be pretty impressed if these people were able to pull off sick gymkhana drift moves in their front wheel drive Toyotas.

Foot pedal parking brake drifts in an empty snowy parking lot are difficult to achieve in a Prius, but not impossible.

My thoughts exactly. It can't decide whether it's an Autobot or a Decepticon, though.
Also, That's a convertible Corvette under there, isn't it? Or a 350Z?
