Claiming you're smarter than someone you've never met (and obviously don't know much about) is pretty unintelligent in itself. You should have let it be from the start.
Even if your post was made in a completely neutral position, it still had the effect of offending some people. Considering the thread isn't even ABOUT modifying cars, its out of place as well. Also, the whole 'arguing over the internet' thing. I presented a valid point, you countered it, its discussion, why are you on forums if you think arguing over the internet gay, isn't that part of a reason for forums? If you want to go somewhere with no human interaction, than leave. Also leave if your going to post things like that, and not expect to have to back them up.
And another thing. You're not smarter.
