DONK?

In the latest issue of Jesse James' Garage mag there's an interview with a guy named Kirk Jones who works for Goodguys.  In the interview he refers somewhat unflatteringly to cars he calls "Donks", describing them as $800 cars with $10,000 rims.  We've all seen that.  My question is, what does the anacronym DONK represent?  

One of the guys at my shop brought in a mag called DONKS the other day. crazy stuff.  At least it is not another 32.  I am sure it says on the mag. Will let you know when I get a chance.
You should find the mag.

from Wikipedia:
Donks are an integral part of the East Coast and South Florida music scene. The expression "Donk rider" originated with the Miami rapper Trick Daddy. Trick grew up in the Miami neighborhood of Liberty City. Donk riders and Rappers from this area also have a unique style of slang and clothing. In South Florida; if one rides old classic cars with 24's,[1] you would be called a "Donk rider". [2] And you can say "I box a Donk Donk" which means you bought this style of car. One of the Donk Rider styles in the South Florida area includes dreadheads with gold teeth or a gold grill; over the years, this particular style has spread throughout Florida.

Donk, Box and Bubble hi-risers are usually old Chevys (from the '70s, '80s or '90s) lifted to fit huge wheels. The bright, candy-colored paint, lifted suspension, designer fabric interior and outlandish proportions give these cars their signature style. While these vehicles may start as $800 shells, owners drop $50,000 and more into these cars. This trend is defined by though not limited to these models:

'71-'76 Chevy Impala or Caprice '77-'90 Chevy Impala or Caprice '91-'96 Chevy Impala or Caprice '78-'88 Chevy Monte Carlo '77-'87 Buick Regal '78-'88 Oldsmobile Cutlass '78-'87 Pontiac Grand Prix

These are all the DONK rated vehicles. It has to do with the bigness of the trunk on the car. Donk comes from the term Ba-Donk-a-Donk which is a large female booty, hence Donk for large car trunk.

DONK KINGS

Hi-Risers are a type of highly customized automobile, typically an inexpensive American-built sedan modified by significantly increasing the ground clearance and adding large-diameter wheels with low-profile tires. Depending on the model and build year, autos customized in this manner can be labeled "donk," "box," or "bubble."

Hi-risers originally grew out of the Dirty South drug, pimp and hip hop subculture but the trend has spread across the United States. Vehicles customized in the hi-riser style are distinguished by their oversized (even disproportionate) rims, ranging from 22" to 30" or more in diameter, as well as fanciful custom paint-jobs and expensive audio equipment. Suspension modifications similar to those employed on lifted pickup trucks are made to give adequate clearance for the large rims. Often the suspension is modified so the front end sits slightly higher than the rear end, giving the car a swaggering appearance. Because of the exaggerated look gained from installing a lifted suspension and enormous rims, donks are also known as "hi-risers" or "sky-scrapers."

The most popular vehicles for these types of modifications are full-size Chevrolet models, namely the Impala, Caprice, Monte Carlo, and Chevelle. There are three main sub-types of hi-riser, although the distinctions are blurred and open to debate. Most hi-riser enthusiasts agree that a "donk" traditional is a 71 to 76 Impala or Caprice. They were attached this name due to its large rear end. Hence "badonka-donk". To complement the sloping rear, the suspension of donks are frequently higher in the front end than the rear, resulting in a nose-up stance. Other hi-risers are usually raised evenly, resulting in a more or less level stance. A "box" is another sub-type of hi-riser, usually a 1980s-era Impala or Caprice with a boxy or squared-off front and rear end. Other models that are frequently made into hi-risers include the G-body Buick Regal, Oldsmobile Cutlass,El Camino and Pontiac Grand Prix.

Other vehicles gaining in popularity as hi-risers are the Cadillac DeVille and Seville, as well as the Buick Roadmaster. Also gaining in popularity are the Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis, and Lincoln Town Car sedans. These three are the last full sized, body-on-frame, RWD sedans sold today. In fact, the Grand Marquis in particular is enjoying a slight sales surge due to the increasing popularity of buying them new and turning them into hi-risers.
