Yeah. Then I became an adult and realized the tuner-vs-muscle car thing is fucking retarded. Some cars are good, some are bad, some are good in certain scenarios while others are bad in the same ones and vice versa. You can like muscle cars for what they are, and appreciate tuners for what they are too.

>>14072037
That was pretty much the conclusion I came to as well.

Cars are emotional things anon, you like what you like. No rational man would take up cars as a hobby in the first place unless he enjoys being broke.

Jap cars are better though, stick with those.

There is an easy solution to this problem

In all seriousness OP gj on becoming the anticancer. It's cool to like different cars for different reasons.

This nigga knows.
Also, a similar approach can be made for most things in life. Makes everything so easy and enjoyable.

>>14072009
I went through the inverse with tuner cars and turning. I'm ultimately just going to rip sick skidz with either, and for a track car it'd more down to visual preference since I'll never be top dog.

A lot of it had to do with growing up in a shit area of Texas surrounded by some of the most ignorant people you'll ever meet.
>murrican mussel da best got dat veeyate motor
My world really changed when I left that shit hole, but sadly too many people are just too stupid to realize it's ok to like American cars as well as Japanese or European cars.

>>14072293
I know that feel

>>14072298
Sadly, my work has brought me back to very near the shit hole, so here I am with a 2000 2.5rs coupe and a 2015 brz series blue, but no car friends. I mostly sit in my garage and drink, then grease my ratchets.

What if we make a /cure/ thread, where anticancer anon can actually have conversations about cars, and shills and shit posters are ignored?

>>14072027
Terence you too, get the fuck out

Muscle cars are more fun in town
Tuners are more fun on the highway
Both are fun on the track for different reasons
Both are fun on the backroads but muscle is way more dangerous there so which one is more fun depends on your need to defy death

Just watch this Roadkill episode to appreciate the fun of muscle philosophy

We have loads of japanese ricer shit
They're boring as fuck, look like hotwheels racers, the people who drive them look like 15 year old virgins

I love all types of cars, from sports cars to muscle to luxury to even trucks and bikes. And from all countries. But as far as performance goes, American sports cars seem to have the best mix of speed, handling and price.

>>14073979
Woah woah woah hold the fuck up. Does the EVO have a longitudinal engine? I always thought they had a transverse setup.

I like my muscle on the highway as opposed to in town, but that's because of my engine setup. I can do a low speed starts alright, but it likes to burn tires and I love highway pulls.

I have a 1973 Firebird with 455 engine.
Likewise it is still lighter than whatever new coupe post 2000 made.
I daily a OM617.92 god machine as a DD. It is still more maneuverable than most full size sedans.
I been to multiple official car shows and found that sometimes not even the people bringing their cars don't actually drive them there.

>>14072552
Name a muscle that has limited slip and an overdrive factory made.
Protip: You can't because they would have already been DFI by that point.

Muscle simply does not exist in your mind as performance. I would too if the original transmission and axle only allowed a maximum of 115 MPH for a 7.5L engine.

>>14072037
this, there's absolutely nothing wrong with liking different types of cars; it's like women, different tastes but regardless of her race, you're gonna admire her tits and ass

I knew this guy who would shit on imports and run his mouth about smoking any import in his stock,a early 90s Thunderbird

yeah I used to like muscle and shit on tuners

then I drove a Civic and had more fun with it than any muscle shit Ive driven

from that point on I realized all muscle is shit

>>14072009
>>if the same motor from any of my favorite cars was put into something lighter, the lighter car would win

too bad it's not ever that simple, you dumb faggot. The LS engine is famous because you can pretty much fit it into any car, you can't say the same for many other engines. On top of that, it's prohibitively expensive to do. For some reason, I ended up looking at ecoboost crate engines (the mustang 4 cylinder one) and the engine alone was like 8k and the wiring harness was 2k. You gonna buy that shit and shove it into your miata, nerd?

Jesus, what made you so angry?

My realization was that muscle cars weren't infallible just because of the names that were on them. A Chevelle or GTO would easily lose to a Gremlin or Vega with comparable power.

>>14078663
How the fuck do you plan on getting a Gremlin to 700hp without it twisting itself in half, nerdboy? Will a Vega ever sound this good?
