What causes this retardation? Is it that automotive enthusiasm is a hobby that is appealing to NPCs? Of all the recreational activities that a person could engage in, automotive enthusiasm might have the lowest median IQ of them all.
No other hobby abuses their tools then complains about the cost of repair and replacement.
No other hobby cuts as many corners as car guys do when it comes to maintaining personal equipment.
No other hobby has such a prevalence of people who over-estimate their own capabilities.
No other hobby gets what they asked for only to turn around and complain it isn't what they cant afford.
No other hobby has such disregard for personal safety, even the ones that typically involve illegal activity.
>every other hobby: "Make sure you use good equipment and maintain it, its what will save you"
>car enthusiasts: "HURR DURR JUST FARKIN SEND IT ON SHITTY BRAKES MATE MECHANIC IS JUST SCAMMING YOU"
>>28503763 (OP)The majority of self-identified "enthusiasts" are nothing more than hooligans. They have no interest in anything other than thrill-seeking and public disorder.
>>28503763 (OP)>What causes this retardation?Social media and keeping up with the jonses. If you car doesn't make 1200 horsepower and 100 psi of boost then it isn't even worth bringing to the meet according to modern normalscum. The gluttonous pigs can never be satisfied. That, and you can barely just sit and tinker with your car anymore like boomers could with carburetors and distributors which was half of the fun.
>No other hobby abuses their tools then complains about the cost of repair and replacement.You should check out model plane guys. Their entire motto is break and rebuild and those planes can get mighty expensive. Everything else you said is because of personal retardation on their end.
Hot hatches were the perfect sweet spot of handling, speed, acceleration, usable internal space, and affordability. Unfortunately most people aren't car enthusiasts, even people that claim to be, so they eventually faded away as sales numbers weren't there.
>Comes to a hobby board just to call the hobby stupid.
So, buck-o, what are you into? Anything?
>>28503763 (OP)Could be worse; they could be paying Games Workshop for plastic nuhammer figures.
>>28503780Lel I watched my brother crash his 60 hour build plane two minutes into its maiden voyage.

>>28503794Kek that just means he's doing the hobby correctly.
All Honda has to do is make the civic RWD and they will utterly dominate the market. Prove me wrong.
>>28503763 (OP)I actually agree. Noticed an intense amount of npc behaviour among car enthusiasts. Also a lot of unresponsive vendors.
Some people like physical things with a little risk because it's fun.
Some people are afraid of doing anything out of the ordinary for fear of being insulted (NPC) then go around calling others retarded because it makes them feel superior.
I know which one I consider "low IQ."
>>28503763 (OP)>enthusiastyou mean brokie that is all talk and no moolah
>>28503763 (OP)The problem is the AE86 was shitbox that just so happened to be rwd while this gr86 is a fucking Miata but worse.
Premium to go slow is fucking unacceptable at that point and I'm serious stop being nationalist for a country you've never even been to and just get a used car that goes faster. Toyotbaru fags only like it because they're fucking weeaboos and that's a fact. Just buy the local brew you get more for the same price.
>>28503816>Just buy the local brew you get more for the same price.Show me this magical $30k American car that's manual, RWD, with a real LSD standard. You can't.
I know this is crazy, but maybe they actually enjoy driving. In the same vein I could say anyone into BMWs is a neo nazi; your argument sucks.
>>28503763 (OP)You finally realized it. "Car enthusiasts" are either rich old guys who own more cars than they ever drive, clout-chasing instagram faggots or plain hooligans like fpbp said.
>>28503763 (OP)take a break from /o/ for a week
