k20eg · 11-21-2009, 12:14 AM

i used to only like jap cars, everything else is ****......
so so silly....

now ive learnt abit and i appreciate cars of any kind.
what ****s me is ***gots that say "fuk import ricer ****!" and "fuk pos american fuel guzzler" ect

what are your thoughts on this?

ProjectCG · 11-21-2009, 12:18 AM

Agree completely. There is not one best genre out there. Same goes for just about everything in life.

Bebop12601 · 11-21-2009, 12:37 AM

I agree. I can't go near most car threads here because of the ignorance.

I agree completely. True enthusiasts can look at all cars and appreciate them. The rest are just fanboys, or ignorant as you said.

The Misc is a haven for uneducated simpletons who know little to nothing about cars. The vmajority argue about things that they've seen in movies (so it must be true, right?), or things they've overheard in passing.

oh wut european cars are the best? totally agree.

Lol I know nothing about cars but I do love European styling.

All cars have potential to be beasts.. including Geo Metros... they can be modded with a big block V8 to name one of many.. never thought it would be possible but it is.

forumdwarf · 11-21-2009, 12:45 AM

I wouldn't go as far as saying, "Appreciate all cars". Some cars are just pieces of ****. The pinto comes to mind. Engineering flaw that could kill occupants.

I'm all for car equality. Its just like every other form of discrimination: Inescapable.

DannyE30 · 11-21-2009, 12:51 AM

I agree with you, but only to a certain point.

go on..

DannyE30 · 11-21-2009, 01:03 AM

It's all in good taste.

Example, I don't really like FWD cars. At the same time, I can respect someone's FWD car if done correctly.

Bad taste

Good taste(friend's car)

Deez Nutz · 11-21-2009, 01:07 AM

They're very few car enthusiast in the misc. just a bunch of boys who think the automobile is a penis extension, and they fail at that too.

k20eg · 11-21-2009, 01:07 AM

your mate has a nice car

Haha, I know that.

But a lot of people say "I hate rice(import) cars, I love american, blah blah blah or vice versa" and they base it on the TONS of people that don't have good taste. A true car enthusiast can a appreciate a nicely done vehicle, but also, knows where to draw the line.

Would you believe even that's a bit overdone for me? It's not as functional as I would prefer, although it is sharp. I'll explain that a bit: I was never big on the JDM craze, as I've always gone for speed, function over form, so to speak. Would I drive it? In a heartbeat.

That, my friend, is ignorance. As I stated before, it's what the mass media (and the retards who follow it) portray.

mautz22 · 11-21-2009, 01:20 AM

i agree. but sometimes cars arent done right at all and not just fwd cars. i have seen alot of mustangs or camaros that just look like sh**

yeah, i see your point.

6Pax · 11-21-2009, 01:23 AM

I agree, a nice car is a nice car whether it comes out of america, europe, or the far east.

But I do think that of all the nice cars I like, about 70-80% of them came out of europe.

Too me its all about if YOUR happy with YOUR car... Hell i drive a 1997 Lancer.. 1. because when i bought it i was dirt poor and 2. because i like it as a car. Hell yes its a fwd car. and yes it only has a 1.8 litre engine... But its mine and it doesnt use much fuel.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I'm not too keen on that front lip spoiler, but it's tons better then the orange riced out car above it. Plus, the last time I saw him at the gym, I believe he removed it. But other then that, it seems fine to me.

Why is it overdone to you?

Show me a better looking Integra. I'd like to know what kind of taste you have or are you just one of those "I LOVE AMERICAN MUSCLE!! WHOOO!!" type of guys?

JPTuning · 11-21-2009, 01:27 AM

I appreciate the work that goes into ALL cars, but some I'm just not interested in. (like low riders and such)

SoVeReIgN · 11-21-2009, 01:31 AM

Agreed.

Judging from your previous posts that I've seen, I would almost be sure that any import is ugly to you. No hate, just saying.

By overdone, I mean non-functional. The wheels, although popular in the current Honda community, are a bit much and yes, the spoiler is pointless for even normal everyday driving.
