Cars you like for your own reasons.

I'll start. I don't care about the engine, I don't care about the spotlight. Its design captures something and evokes feelings I can't adequately describe at the time of this writing.

What's the car feel only you know, anon?

Probably the civic ek9 type r. Not really too powerful, not really special in any way. But it has a special place in my heart.

I like this car in particular because it represents what a car should be like. It was always a halo car for me, lacking in comfort but delivering what I thought to be the most pure driving experience ever.

Unfortunately, it's not an easily attainable car. But once I got to drive one, it greatly exceeded my already elevated expectations.

What a beast.

It's an underpowered shitbox that's almost 25 years old now, but you know, it's silly to say that you're driving a mid-engine rear wheel drive car (which you are).

I agree with you. Although for me it's probably because I was a teen when that car was for sale. I always wanted one but could never afford it. I ended up with an MR2 Turbo and it was a complete piece of shit.

>>
>>17666464
I'll admit, I've never seen them from the perspective of cute. Now with that in mind, I think I can like them a little more. I always perceive the headlights as slightly aggressive, rather than wide-eyed.

If you look through the history of 4chan or Reddit, 90% of the time when the A80 is mentioned it gets ridiculed to no end. "It's good for making power, but there's literally no other reason to own it because the NSX/FD/R32/R34 exist."

I like all those cars, but I feel like I made to be a leper because I still like it more than those other cars, even though the standard "enthusiast" opinion is that I shouldn't.

Bloke round the corner from me used to have a purple Elise. Used to ride past on my bike just to look at it.
Got an MR2 now as my stepping stone towards one.

It's not really hard to get or rare, you can get one for 12k

Same, some guy in my apt used to have a white elise.
I also got an MRS as stepping stone. It's pretty much a daily version of elise with really floppy chassis

Mainly because my dad still has his, and it's the definition of a shitbox that refuses to give up.
Sure it's slow, it's a 4-speed autotragic and there's not one panel on the car where the clearcoat hasn't started peeling off, but the thing just keeps on going and going and going.
