Do you guys realize the car you drive that becomes your identity?

Do you guys realize the car you drive that becomes your identity?

Well yeah

I live in very small place, and thats how you recognize folks; either you see their faces or you see their cars. I probably have a much easier time because of an actual interest in cars, but I'll very easily spot a coworkers, family members, friends and so on's cars, even if there is nothing remarkable about them compared to other models. A slight discoloring in the trim, the plate, perhaps the wheels are a little different and so on

Am I autistic?

Yes and automakers know it too. Everything from the design, model name, and eventual advertising is engineered for a specific consumer. The car is merely an extension of the personality.
For example you may notice lots of new sedans have a femmy looking fascia, almost like eyes wearing mascara. And a slight smile. Safety is emphasized, but look at how much “power” you get. You’re a bad bitch.

Yeah, this thing is pretty rugged. That’s why we made the grille resemble a bulldog - because you’re a big manly man. So much power you won’t know what to do with it (really). Imagine all the shit you could tow, if you towed anything. Tough. Strong. Big.

This is a pure racer’s machine. Notice the carbon fiber? How about that fluorescent trim? Hell, we’ll even throw on a spoiler. Yeah it’s front wheel drive but that doesn’t matter. Real racers need spoilers to keep this spaceship on the ground. Comes with a free vape and unsecured subwoofer for the trunk.

Normal people get normal sedans. You’re not “normal people”. Show your superiority with a body kit built around the same car you can get for 40% less. Sure, it’s no luxury car. But you’re that much better than everyone else (at least on the outside). Precision. Elegance.

>I bet you can guess which vehicles I’m referring to

What? Is my identity a toyota corolla, or a cbr600rr? I have both.

>Normal people get normal sedans. You’re not “normal people”. Show your superiority with a body kit built around the same car you can get for 40% less. Sure, it’s no luxury car. But you’re that much better than everyone else (at least on the outside). Precision. Elegance.

Can you go into detail about this?

I've noticed this about some people who drive the same old 20+ year old car and for what reason???

Only if you choose to define yourself by it.

I drive a civic, the entire point is having no identity

So what's my identity?

poorfag

Truth

so what am I guys

Broke.

Rich but not rich enough

spot on.

Eh. I could afford something much more upmarket, but I like this.

>Preferring the 996 over the 997
fake news

Associate something

I think that was the user that posted his honda.

I'd absolutely take a 996 over a 997. Maybe after college, when I have a bit more to allocate towards a car. I'm just a freshman rn and that + tuition takes up just about all of the revenue generated from my businesses.

That said, the 996 is a great car, and we need IDs.

>feel like an econocuck with my life out of control in Civic
>feel like white trash douchebag in Genesis Coupe
Feels good.

I'd unironically take my Honda over any Porsche.

Fag that picked the ugliest 911 in existence.

The guy that posts his 996 too much, atleast tell me its turbo

I probably am here too much.

My business kind of runs itself, I need a new hobby. I'm wayyy too young to be here so much.

No matter what car gets posted here, people will have something negative to say about it in likeness of who you are.

Lol this cunt
See you in 10 years

Who am I?

pays for cigarettes and $4.38 of gas at the same time using only change

what does my car say about me Veeky Forums?

...

Cars ruined my fucking life. Instead of getting a gf and building a career I've basically just repaired/restored shitboxes in my parents' basement-garage for 10 years and now I'm a 27.9 year old kissless virgin

rare, refined taste in an underrated company.
I asked you about legends a while back in hg now I almost have enough to buy one. But I'll probably save more than that to compensate for some fixes it's bound to need.
I think I'm gonna love my Legend.

Person who has had a couple gfs and on a career track here. You've accomplished far more than I have. Fixing cars is an actual useful skill. Being single is freedom.

Spending hours on spreadsheets and emails is soul-draining. Sex is more work than fun. You'll have no idea how good you have it until you're on the other side. Good luck user.

A cute.

>tfw all the people here look the same, especially blonde girls

it might just be autism

Hello r/cars

Judge me please.

that's not actually your car and you're just making a joke right

Seconding. I may be on track to big boi money, but that comes at the cost of literally all my fucking time doing something that I didn't particularly want to do because of my marriage, a marriage that ended up costing me the single thing that gave the most daily joy: my car and all the adventures around it.

Why don't you try to swing the repair and restoration you do into a service?

Hahaha
(nice ride)
Thanks user-kuns.
White collar job, but probably unhappy.

What does my car say?

I'd seriously recc' getting hubcaps. Without them you look like a druggie.

I have some nice alloys.
But it's winter time, so the winter wheels are on atm

Some cars are too common to easily recognise. Grey or orange MK3 Kia Sportages, grey 120/150 Land Cruisers and any VW Golf or Passat are just a few examples

whats this say about me then?

planning to put more stickas on it

Is that lightbar worth it?

Thinking about getting one for my daily.

if its legal sure.

nsw its a grey area but u cant mount them above your headlights hence why mine isnt on the roof as along of cunts ran them of roof racks and offroad roof trays blinding cunts

Yeah it helps alot at night mount it as high as you can.

Lower mount is better for fog and close
Mid is a good one like what ive done
High mount is better for long range 500m/mile+

Its autism. Can confirm because I am the Autism.

Back when I worked as a chauffeur, I remembered every single detail on every black mercedes I ever saw and in some cases I could tell drivers apart just from the driving style.
Most of them I'd never even spoken to before.

It says "eastern europe".

Where is the snow then, you god damn cuck

Right, right. Just giving you a heads up though.

>drill holes next to insignia
>not routing the cables through the holes just beneath
can something explain this ?

Hoses were too short and I wanted them pointed upwards

Tfw a reliant robin

A woeful pile of pain for anyone looking to work on it.

>Drove s13 for 11 years
>OMG Do you drift bro?!
Engine KO, mothball for future V8 or I6.

>Buy 2017 GTI
>Middle aged men and vapebros everywhere

I learned to ignore the s13 crowd, I'll do the same with the GTI folks.

My identity lies with my s13, its been modified to my tastes and visually near what I want it. Now to decide what sound and power delivery I want in the car. Still don't know how I feel about a V8 rumble in a tiny jap box.

you're one stupid mongrel

Faggot

...

Am I a good person?

throw a jz in it, parts are there, aftermarket is there

jerry seinfeld would be proud

You're a tool, OP. It only becomes your identity if you have none.

Daddy's money, but only barely. You own a 1-bedroom townhome downtown and don't intend to improve your style of living.

>Non car people don’t understand that when they insult our cars they’re basically insulting us

>honda civic 2018
but the civic is actually fast

take some guesses

>500m/mile+
What the fuck does that even mean?
Do you have any idea how different 500 meters is to a mile?
Do you honestly think you can put lights on your car that can help you see a mile ahead?
500 meters is like 1/3 of a mile mate.

Does he own any in his collection? I know he chose to drive one in the show for his own personal reasons but it was never clear if he had any love for the brand.

Faggot

This is the only correct post in the thread

I'm not sure. It seemed like he liked driving them, as he had them featured on the show.

What do mine say?
>28, Male, white

What does my car say about me Veeky Forums

I think you're gay and you're trying to live a dream of a generation past.
I have no respect for people who like objectively bad and ugly cars because "muh parents teenage feels"

Not gay, but the second point maybe.
That’s my weekend cruiser car that’s comfy and I like the look of and the motorcycle is just for fun.
Picrel is my daily.

>oh shit, maybe I do like ugly cars

My autistic dream is to buy rustfree old Cali cars that don't pass smog and trailer them back to the Midwest for repair and sale. No money in that though. If only I bought buttcoin back when it was basically WoW gold.

Who am I?

Cool. Probably designs android apps or something
White lightning

You know, I actually identify with my Trabant.
It's a weird car, it seems to be pretentious and break down a lot to many people, but few will actually try to look beneath the stereotypes and pop the hood and understand how it works and how simple it really is.
At the end of the day, we are both alone, but at least have each other, me and Trabi.

And yet they say "60 year old white man" probably wearing a baseball cap with graphics and a Tommy Bahama shirt

A man of taste.

My negro you must be the comfiest man alive. How's the 1uz? I want to put one in the mk3

ah u kno what i mean 1609.34 meters/1 mile etc

basically you want the led lights at least at the same level as your head lights or higher for any decent distance illumination

Not my photo but still the same car I drive. Completely bone stock, don't like people that mod the fuck out of these. I feel alone in the
local BMW community that likes to keep things stock. IDK what that says about me.

Also it's a 330i 6 speed with a debadged trunk

I almost cried

Thanks for keeping it stock. I think you'll see decent resale value when you go to sell it.

I have a slightly modified (bolt ons) e93 335i, which unfortunately has become the official "came into some money" car, and I'm regretting blacking out the rims and trim.

judge me Veeky Forums
yes user, yes you are. at least in my eyes.

It's right hand drive, you dumb nigger.

40-something divorced dad?

Is it me, or the sidemirror seems chipped?

>tfw old man

Let's not throw a JZ in it, or anywhere close to it.
In fact, let's throw out the JZ alltogteher.
An Sr20 would be easier and preserve the firewall for future enthusiasts

Yeaaaap. This is a very old photo (that I've posted before) from when some drunk cunt sideswiped me while parked outside my buddie's house. Lucky us, we were all sitting in the car when it happened and we chased after the bitch. My friend called the cops while we were tailing her and we actually fucking got her. My court date is actually in like two weeks now, can't wait to watch this bitch lose her license.

I have since bought a new mirror but still haven't replaced it (lol) because it's cold AF and also it's still usable for the most part.

identify me faggots

what does this say, not same car but similar wheels, 25

Ayy, don't have any pictures of my 9-3 and it's too dark outside to take one, but it's exactly like this one except it's blue

>preserve the firewall
what?
and yea an sr20 is good too
