How does a car make you feel though?

did you go on a petrolicious binge tonight or something?
Unless you are racing for competition and money, how a car feels is literally all that matters. Even if you autocross, you're only racing yourself.

awww poor Honda Friend
its okay when your Civic is remembered as an ECONO Box
or Time relinquishes your TYPE R to a "Ricer" fad
The "TRUE" Japanese Legends are talking put the NSX on the Phone
>>15605272
he's right
you're not takumi or fucking paul walker, you're not a street racer that's ready to go up against anything. your insurance rates are high enough already with those eurobeat powered speeding tickets. if you ever race, you're going to be racing something like spec miata or econobox rally.
>>15605260
Cars are most certainly art. Art has the power to change emotion and influence an individual. Art grows on you over time, and you never fail to see something different even after the 100th glance. Cars were meant to make you feel, and they are so strongly drowned out by numbers and the constant need to set laps. There is a personality in every vehicle, and whether you hate it or not, there isn't anything else in the world that matters more than what YOU feel in YOUR CAR.
Fuck lap times.
Fuck 0-60
Fuck TTV6 vs V8
Most importantly, fuck you Alphonse

It's like saying your dog can't outrun a lion
Where the fuck are the lions, motherfucker? Where is your motherfucking lion? Is it in a display case? A fucking display case? You don't have a lion, bitch. Go back to taking short throw shifters up your high flowing catback.

wew lads
welcome to /o/ 2016 Type R Model
>>15605373
Oh wait you're alphonse
sorry i thought you weren't literally autistic for a moment m8 enjoy jerking off to dog men
The thing though is op, cars that are truly fun to drive are also fast... or old
Toyobaru fags can deny and attempt to justify all the want but the simple fact is that a 21st century car with 200hp and a modestly high curb weight isn't fun, especially when everything is electrically controlled
> but muh shitty tires make squeaky noise when I go around a corner below the speed limit! So much fun
enjoy your zero feedback thanks to electrishit steering
Miatafags are no different either
> the wind in my face and marshmallow handling means it's fun!
Nope
Any real driver, a serious driver, would have infinetly more fun behind the wheel of a Mustang than any of those shit heap poser cars, and mustangs are shit house
>>15605352
Hey shut the fuck up. Type r is a solid car and it's a blast
>>15605403
Confirmed for not driving new Mustang
just take the electric steering out
>>15605407
See, the civic may be electricaid shit and fwd but at least it's fast, so it's inheritly fun
jesus fucking christ. now i dont usually go into the general threads, but do people really go into a say, honda general and cry about FWD, or into a bike thread and whine about how 4 wheels are objectively superior at everything?
while those may or may not be reasonable argument, that's not what the fucking thread is about
i am the most massive BMW shill, and i'll happily say that the car i've had most fun in, ever was a sub 150hp fwd hatchback. was it as good as my car? no, but it was way more fun
>>15605403
What about the G37 anon?

They do actually, they do in both those threads

Don't be stupid. People do that, yes, but you should ask yourself to what extend do they do it? This general is especially shitty, probably because the OP started by mentioning the 4 things this whole board cares about the most: times.
The other generals are not nearly this bad. Also, keep in mind that all it takes is 1 person to ruin a thread, so while it might seem like it's a lot of people shitposting, it might just be one autist.
>>15605260
>How does a car make you feel though?
but thats wrong
cars prevent me from feeling
i can just hoon and not want to die
>>15605325
Thus actually makes me laugh. You are comparing a new car to a car model that's 20 years old. Oh and you didn't even pick the top trim. The MR2 Turbo made over 220hp not 178hp.
This thread clearly demonstrates that /o/ is just /k/ on its very worst day every day of the week.
Nobody on this board has any business owning or operating a motor vehicle let alone trying to tell anyone how to drive or what car is good. You are a liability to yourself and those around you perfectly well without sitting in a 2,000lb missile.
Cept the truck guys. You guys are alright.

I like cars that symbolize a time and place. Take the two-tone Silvia as an example. Everything about this car from the year it was released to it's silhouette conjures up nothing but images of bubble-era Japan at it's absolute peak.

Everyone got off topic, so I'll answer OP's question.
>How does a car make you feel?
A car makes me feel free, at one, lively, and just an all around great feeling. Even being in an automatic econobox has a fun feeling, just to be free and have the childish like ambition to go places and do things.
Things change when an Auto turns into a Manual. The feeling of being connected to a car has more of a feeling then a girlfriend at some times. To try and describe it to someone who has never driven a manual, it feels like one of those movies where the big ass robot opens up to be controlled by a person.
When it comes to a performance car, that robot is more bad ass, being able to perform better, and give a more of alive feel to the person in control.
Taking yourself from a performance car, weather it was straining at the lease or just a peppy hatch back, to get into something that is not performance related. Is a great feeling. Like getting out of that absolutely mental robot, taking all your skill and experience and getting back into the boring robot. Using your skill and experience to have fun, to have a fantastic time and just put a smile on your face.
That's how a car makes me feel.
