There is some stance crap, VAG scene, riced Honda's, bossted Nissans, fast Audis, some V8s (especially Mustangs), etc.
Youngtimers are prety popular tho

From the motorsport perspective, the most popular are local rallies, and drifting I think. There are almost no real tracks for a proper racing so track days take place usually on an old airfields or something similar.

Assholes buying high powered German cars to drive like dicks and blast down the Autobahn.

Poor assholes buying German or Japanese shitboxes to slap cheap lowering kits, loud mufflers and subwoofers on them to annoy everyone around them.

A very particular group of Ameriboo motorists having old American barges as second or sometimes first cars.

Old folk obsessing about their garbage commie shitboxes they've had in the barn for the last 30 years.

Sandniggers aren't a noteworthy population in eastern Germany, otherwise you'd have to mention them financing expensive German cars to hoon around the city as pretend-gangsters.

Tons of boosted R33's and 32's which are all breaking because of their boost. Broken S13's and your average bogan thinking their Commondores are Gods gift to this world. Real nice Evo's and STI's though. Euro's somewhat exist but nobody pays them much attention. Stance isn't a major issues cause our roads are all fucking broken. We now have Mustangs too which is cool. Also there is you average boosted XR6T running 400Kw on shitty rims and bad tires. Good fun when you mix it all together :)
>>
Younger drivers aspire to own an old Golf with broken suspension until they can afford to finance the newest car possible. I work with a guy spent £14,000 on a four year old BMW 318i while he only makes £17,000 a year.

Lots of people think their 1.9 diesel hatchback is fast.

Motorsport is almost exclusively for the over 40s and teenage sons of millionaires trying to make it to F1. Some people between those ages do a little bit of racing rental karts or just trackdays. Trackday car of choice is an E36 BMW right now, however we also have a strong kit car scene so those are popular too.

There are many performance cars that are depreciating rapidly because CO2 based taxes mean they are expensive to run, a good condition Nissan 350z for example now costs <£5,000 but you have to pay £515 per year to tax it. Compare that to most hot hatches (which are considered VERY fast cars) that are in the £2-300 per year range.

Sydney, Australia:

A few E36s + E30s. Older euros are expensive and hard to get parts for (I have to get pretty much all the parts for my E30 from the US)
Track days are expensive and hard to get - drift days and the drags are the most popular events.

Tasmania, Australia

basically consists of 90s dirty commodores on chopped springs with stockies, ke70 corollas, mx83 cresidas r31 skylines. (no yearly vehicle check so piles of shit can roam the streets until they get defected and then parted out)

maybe if youre lucky youll see a nice 180 or r33 that isnt blowing a tun of smoke or one that is one solid colour.

lots and lots of those 4x4 cars around, like fucking heaps (dont know much about those sort of cars but every second hi lux or land cruiser has a stupid lift kit and huge tyres)


lots of ex sex spex lancers and preludes that arre driven by people who dont know the difference from the normal version because the rice shit holds zero value.

most fast utes here are unmodified because average people drive them exept for maybe a zorst and a pod filter.

theres a huge subaru scene here because of the shit weather which is actually mint.

if you want a clean car thats not insanley priced youre gonna have to go shopping on the mainland for one if you dont want a trashed out drift missile thats been ruined by years of p plater abuse

There's this thing called inspections. You can imagine how it works out in the land of order. I mean, it's far from impossible, there are crazy cars here and there, but for most things you need hurr-certified parts with durr-stamps and all other sorts of paperwork mumbo jumbo which makes mods expensive and complicated enough to just leave it to tuning companies who deal with it on a daily basis and know their way around an inspector better. That's why we make Europe's most powerful factory family cars and have so many tuners to begin with. It's just less of a hassle.
>>
Nova Scotia, Canada
There is a large import scene here as we can import cars that are 15 years or older. There is a ton of skylines, Evos and STIs. Obviously there is a lot of old rusted to shit civics with fart cans on them. There is also a lot of 60s, 70s muscle cars and older customs and hot rods. During the long and shitty winter everyone will put their cars in storage and bring out the "winter beater". Many of these are cheap AWD/4X4 vehicles with Subarus being very popular.

Eastern Norway. Winters last a very long time here, so you're pretty much forced to own a car that's winter-friendly (good luck DD-ing your Miata here).
Cars here are extremely expensive to begin with. The cost of a new Honda Jazz (aka Honda Fit) is approx. $30k here, about double the price of what you would pay for one in the US.

Many high-performance cars (especially those with high displacement) are bombarded with taxes to the point where they're impossible to acquire for most people. In 2013 a, new Camaro in Sweden would cost you a little short of $50k, in Norway the same car was $166k. It's absolutely ridiculous.

-That aside, Porsches are a pretty common sight over here in the summertime. German cars in general are very common, but like anywhere else Toyota also has a huge share.
-Teslas are SUPER common. I've even seen a few Tesla Roadsters roaming about.
-The jay dee emm scene is almost nowhere to be seen unless you actively attend events and shit. Even Celicas seem to turn heads here because a lot of people have no idea what they are. I've never seen an RX-7, GTO, Supra, GT-R, 200SX or anything of the sort on this side of the border, but I've seen several of them in Sweden.

If I were to become rich one day, there's no way I'd stay here.

Yeah its too complicated, but I'm happy that not every ricer kid can swap a 2JZ in his frail Twingo and attempt to break speed records on the Autobahn. I'd have no problem with aussie standards if our speed limit was 100kmh.

>>16528932
Damn I thought you were exaggerating, but importing a 2016 Camaro with a 6.2l v8 from sweden would cost 85000€ just in taxes.

At least we can drive anything stock as fast as we want. The tradeoff for more lenient vehicle condition is less lenient road rules. Would you trust people like Americans and their modding habits to drive on public roads with no general speed limit?

Denver CO USA

On the streets, it's Subarus fucking everywhere. Evos are very popular for the same reason. Middle class boomers in C5/C6 corvettes. I don't actually see many mustangs or camaros; japanese cars seem to be more popular with the younger crowd. Very few JDM imports; skylines and such are still rare.

At the drag strip, you'll find boomers in old muscle cars and dirtbags in newer mustangs and camaros; typical. At HPR, you'll find 50's balding guys with expensive porsches. Also the occasional BMW driver. There is a small drift scene as well, mostly full of kids in their mid-late 20's that look like they live out of their multi-colored shitmobile.

2am WAT fest would be the sunday night "nationwideproductions" meets. Look them up on instagram and they post coordinates on sunday evenings. These are huge meets with a lot of rice and younger kids.

There is a colorado cars and coffee if you're into that. I've never gone because it looks like the typical flyover state cars and coffee that's been infested with hot rod boomers and general non-exotic type stuff. You can find them on facebook.

If you want a good meet, you have to curate your own group of cars/friends to your taste and keep it invite-only.

95% hard parking posers, whether it's cars and coffee or stance nation meetup at in n out at midnight followed by a "drive" through some country backroads at 10-20mph over the speed limit.

Good mix of vehicles though, they get driven all year round because kickass weather.

5% Actually hit track/autox regularly and make use of their cars, about half of these people are cool and the other half are just going through a phase and will go back to hardparking or get cucked and buy a Prius.

Detroit + burbs. around highschool is typical poopoopeepee mustangs and camaro 3's, but not many imports. We have a Sonic on a main road where some nicer cars will show up every once in a while, but they aren't the friendliest. Bunch of middle aged dudes have their obligatory c7s, mustangs, and challengers, but i don't see many camaros. We used to have a yearly MDU competition and some genuinely clean (with some shit) cars would come out to spectate and practice the next day. From my experience cops don't hate it, but they'll pull you over if you're stupid on the 2 lane roads.

There isn't really a "car culture" in terms of modding in Germany, for reasons explained in this thread.

But I found a 2016 study on the most common car types on German roads and from my own experience it's very accurate.
I think it's interesting, if anyone has similar stats for their country feel free to post.

Most common car types in Germany:
>sedan (25%)
>hatchback (25%)
>wagon (25%)
>minivan (6%)
>SUV/crossover (5%)
>coupe (5%)
>convertible (3%)
>van (2%)
>other (5%)

I reckon it's quite a lot different from America, maybe not so different from other EU countries.

NYC here,

Fuckton of econoboxes (seems like 30% of cars on the road are either a Camry, Corolla, or Civic)

Otherwise a very hearty number of douchenozzles in their generic BMWs and Infinitis. This is closely followed by Nissan Altimas. Lexus is slightly less popular.

More SUV's than sedans on the roads.

And then there's me, in my 2014 GT Mustang (Mustangs in NYC are pretty rare)

No they aren't. I'm the other nyc bro here I see em everywhere. Unless you are speaking about Manhattan as NYC...then yeah I can see that.

I'm in Brooklyn. I literally sat there once watching the traffic on the belt parkway and it took 25 minutes for a mustang to pass by.

Although, I'll admit, there are about 5-6 of them within a 4 block radius from me.

You are close....too close. I am also familiar with the parkway of belt.

central-ish texas. All older guys with classic American cars. Hot rods, lead sleds, ratrods, gassers, MUH ORIGINALS, muscle, and that one guy with a plymouth prowler.

Damn son, small world. Do you live in the 70-somethings too?

Nah. I only know a few mustangs that fit the description just from around the area. Assuming the one I saw is yours...who knows...
>>
>>16532655
Drop hatchbacks down to like 8% and wagons down to like 3%, bump up SUV/Crossovers and minivans and that's pretty much 'murica
>>
>>16532930

What color was it?
>>
>>16532936
Depends which one. I suck at mustang years and recalling colors. I know I have seen a red/black one but if its a standard color I wouldn't be able to tell ya.
>>
>>16532944
Correction more of a maroon with the black strip thing on the bottom.
>>
>>16532944

Hmm. not familiar with that one.

>>16532970
Yeah I seldom see it now. Probably a lease. IDK man I see a bunch of em...maybe not all gts though. Care to share a picture?

Almost every dude the ages of 18-25 who has money to burn drives either some stanced/riced Volkswagen or a big ole lifted truck. The ones without money drive Honda civics/preludes with loud exhausts. My neighborhood has at least 4 of each.

everything else is just a blend of beater sedans and leased crossovers

I'd imagine a lot more pickup trucks too. There's not even enough of those to be their own category here.

>>16533037
Oh yeah definitely, totally forgot that living in the 'burbs the past few years. Depends on where you are though, some places >30% trucks, some places ~5% trucks.

Probably more accurate to say ~35% SUV/CUV/Truck

Dutchess/Putnam and occasionally downstate Jew York reporting in. Here's the cliff notes:

>the most stereotypical boomers you can think of. Usually seen either; sitting in their lawn chair with a scowl, grunting to other boomers or cleaning their car which is only driven to car shows or gas stations
>Guidos and mouth breathers who drive (mostly) off the lot murrican muscle, bolt on some shit (color changing lights most of the time but its quickly becoming giant gt wing and a wrap) and go to car shows or show up at cars and coffee early every single sunday so they can park together and put their matching giant toy things in front of their cars
>vapestains with stanced cars that you will rarely see actually out driving unless there's a car meet nearby. The kind of people who go to h2oi and have no idea its a vw show
>kids with newer cars with some bolt ons/exhaust who HAVE TO rev the shit out of their cars or hit 2 step/launch control
>older shitheaps that look like haggard garage abortions with owners to match
There's obviously exceptions but this is the bulk of it.

But so far I only ever see big ol' trucks with big ol' fifth-wheels on them and no L O N E L Y bois out here.

Sure there are, very few of them in big cities. It's a massive pain in the ass to actually mod your car though because absolutely everything has to be registered. You can't even put aftermarket wheels on your shitbox without registering them with the TÜV (DMV basically).
I'm not saying absolutely nobody in Germany ever mods their car obviously, but anything beyond a basic lowering, alloy wheels and a muffler is a huge hassle to get approved and costs a fortune in registration fees and insurance. That is if they don't just turn you away in the first place because you didn't have a certified mechanic do the modifications for you.

>Jesus. Go outside sometimes.
I drive all across Germany for work every day and modded cars are extremely few and far between. You get a teenager in a slammed Opel Corsa that sounds like a jetplane taking off every now and then, but it's still the same 1.6 liter shitbox underneath. Maybe they put an airfilter on it. Something simple they can remove before the next inspection. Very very few people actually have the dedication to do something substantial to their cars. "Going outside sometimes" isn't enough to see these people, you'd have to actively seek them out.

Why are you so focused on modding cars? This thread asks what the car scene is like. I'm sure there are clubs of (stock, apparently) Porsche drivers that like to meet up regularly, cruise, get coffee, go to the track. If you are saying this doesn't happen where you live, I have a very hard time believing it.
>>
>>16528553
Near me, there's this hot dog stand where all walks of the automotive enthusiast world meet. On any given nice day, you'll find a great number of people there, with cars ranging from horrible ricers, to classic muscle, to hiked up pickups, to awesome modifications. It's nice because you don't need a spectacular car to go, and it happens all the time so you can just grab a buddy and head over there when you have nothing better to do.

Detroit

Everyone drives American except for the Indians and Super rich.

As soon as people have the means to buy a "muscle car" they do it immediately and floor it between every red light less than a hundred feet away.

Import scene is practically non-existent.

Also enjoy the ubiquitous car sized potholes.
>>
>>16535277
>Why are you so focused on modding cars?
Because the original statement made was literally "there isn't really a car culture in terms of modding."
I then went on to describe the general "car culture" in Germany, i.e. what types of cars you actually see on the roads.

>If you are saying this doesn't happen where you live, I have a very hard time believing it
I've never seen an owner's club meeting of any sort, no. The nearest race track is 200 miles away. The closest thing to a "car scene" where I live is literally 10 guys standing around in a church courtyard with their poorly riced out Corsas, Golfs and Civics.
I'm sure there's all manner of nationwide owner's clubs but they don't exactly have constant giant meetings in public places where I'd notice them.

>>We can. Drive ANYTHING
>YEAH But it has to be stock as a rock and that defeats the purpose of owning older moddable adaptable cars doesn't it.
lmao no.
There's a 1000bhp supra around here that goes around.
Go to car gathering events and there's shitload of modded cars.
nobody gives a fuck here and insurance is cheap and so are skylines.
Keep finding excuses, we all know you americans are salty because some nice cars and guns are banned over there but not here.

it is harder to mod cars here in germany but not impossible
faking papers for parts, relabeling parts with different specs/numbers

on the other side, modded cars get quickly impounded and go through a harsh tech check and they'l allways find something that is not 100% like in the registration

I'm a bit south of you in Richmond. There are some Massive meets here, the Mustang scene in particularly is big (part of that group myself). Since there are affluent areas scattered about you get to see some nicely modified shit, but also fuckbois who get their cars on daddy's dime.
