sundaygolfer269@reddit

The 1986 Honda Prelude ended my love affair with the Porsche 911. From 1973 to 1988 I owned six 911s. I finally sold my last one in 1988, and it took almost two years to get a decent price for it. The Prelude changed my thinking completely. Reliable, comfortable, balanced, modern, and fun to drive every day without the constant drama and expense.
I still loved the sound and feel of the 911, but the Prelude made me realize there was another way to enjoy driving.
I hope the new Prelude becomes more sporty and captures some of the spirit that made the originals special.

[-]

howrunowgoodnyou@reddit

I had an 89 prelude si w 4ws. I now have a 70s 911 w a bunch of mods.

I mean, I get what you’re saying. The prelude was fun af to to throw into corners…. But the 911 just feels….. idk. Raw? Pure? It’s more of a contraption and I love the noise.

The part that bothered me the most about the prelude was it was slow AND it used premium AND it only got like 22mpg.

That still sounds ok, but compared to an integra w bolt ons that is just as fun, more practical, AND can get 30mpg…. Idk. I like the EF and integras more than the preludes. You get 30mpg and have an absolute blast driving.

A few years ago I saw an early 80’s BWM with a Mondale/Ferraro sticker on the freeway in San Francisco . The windows were so clear and scratch free it was as if they weren’t there, the sticker looked like it had been applied that morning, and the entire rest of the exterior and visible interior were in matching showroom condition. The only thing I can think of is that it was either fully restored to that condition, or the guy drives it once a month and keeps it garaged both at home and at all destinations.

Why Wrangler drivers so damn slow? No shade, honestly Rollover risk?

[-]

Munster19@reddit

I imagine because most aren't all that sporty. They're built for off roading so they've got lower gear ratios than other cars, and probably lower from-stop torque doubled up with larger tires that are harder to spin. In my case with a 4xe I can launch pretty well for a 5500lb brick. But I just don't tend to.

Also there's just the feel. Two cars can be going the exact same speed but feel much different. Also if you want them going over 75mph, wranglers tend to wobble at that speed and thus tend keep their speed a little lower.

I've always wanted a Lamborghini Gallardo (similar to R8) because they're surprisingly affordable and I like the styling. I might end up getting an R8 because there's an independent Audi mechanic near me, and they flat out refused to service a Lamborghini. The closest independent Lamborghini mechanic is an hour drive from me, and then I have to think about how to get back home. It's little inconveniences like that which prevent me from getting the car I really want. R8 is still a great second best option though.

I haven't met too many supercar owners but I understand what you're saying. Some people really want that badge, and don't care about the car itself. I don't think someone necessarily needs to know about the history or engineering of a car to be a car person, but they do need to look beyond status. Status is meaningless to me. It doesn't mean status has no value, but it doesn't make someone respectable by default.

Exotics are interesting, too. I go nuts when I see a Lamborghini or Ferrari. They're pretty rare. I only see a handful every year.

But yeah, there's a station wagon with wood paneling near my house and it's absolutely stunning.

Wow, you live in quite an area. I'd say that's highly unusual. In my entire neighborhood, from what I've seen, there's two Porsches and one Maybach but that's it. Everything else is The Standard Crossover; you know, the one that everyone buys these days. It comes in slightly different shapes and badging but it's really just one car.

3: Lastly, anything that is heavily modified. Think, street legal race car/truck. There's a guy in my area with a 1970's C10 thats got a MASSIVE blower on it and some damn near 16in wide rear tires. Wicked shit like that gets me going.

windmill09@reddit

I'm in the Bay Area. 1/3rd of the cars are Teslas. The drivers don't have experience driving anything this powerful and they do some gnarly sht like launch their cars into intersections and then immediately slam their brakes because they're going to fast. Then try to cut into lanes by accelerating but they forget that they are not THAT fast that they can defy physics and immediately accelerate 0 to 70 mph and then to 0 in 1 second.

Anything old enough that the local examples have mostly rotted away. Early 2000s and older.

Rare models - I look for the signs; optional hood scoops, intercoolers, badging, special OEM wheels, factory special cladding, that kind of stuff.

In my town, everybody drives a truck, so I zero in on small cars and brands we lack local dealerships for. Imported Kei class, Smart cars, most non-VW euro cars, JDM only stuff.

Anything unique, rare, old (good or bad condition will get different kind of attention), exotic and sometimes even a new model that just looks different.

and unique mods or colors. If it’s been lifted. Although I think they are ultra tacky, if I see a car with truck nuts it will at least grab by eye. I do one day hope to see truck nuts on a Fiat 500 lol.

Not all attention is good of course,

But anything more intriguing than a 2022 Corolla will get some attention from someone. And of course you might want to fly under the radar sometimes so this is no knock on a Corolla

Honestly it's cars that were on the road 25+ years ago. I saw a Ford Contour SVT 2 days in a row on my commute this past week. I was floored! And I saw a 4th gen Camaro a couple of weeks ago, and an old Ford Fairlane today. In a sea of newer common cars, I love seeing cars that break the monotony of that. Shows that someone was dedicated enough to care for those cars and keep them running and on the road. Don't get me wrong, it's cool to see the C8 Corvettes and some of the exotic cars where I live, but I feel a connection with the people who drive the older stuff as I am into that stuff as well.
