Instagram "car culture" has warped and ruined car enthusiasm by pushing the lowest common denominator to the forefront and encouraging the "le selfie" mentality.
"JDM" has basically lost all meaning and is a blanket catch-all term for anything remotely Japanese. Buying shit knock off Chinese reproduction parts and having your local garage install them for you now qualifies as "BUILT NOT BOUGHT BRO #GOALS"
TL;DR mainstream "car culture" is a sewer and over half of the dipshits fishing for like-bait on IG with slammed budget coils and faux aero wings have no idea how to wrench on their cars. Car culture isn't being killed by the introduction of "self driving cars", it's being killed from the inside by its shitty style over substance community.

how old were you when fast and furious first came out?
Man, ricers have always existed in some shape or form, and naturally they'll congregate together, you just think there's more because social media gives them a higher visibility. They're annoying, but government regulation and self-driving electric cars are going to kill the culture, not a bunch of stance fags fishing for likes on instagram.

nice blog son.
also car culture isn't about social media, blog posts or the internet, its about getting out there in your car.
>>17870931
This image angers me on so many levels.
>>17870931
disgusting
>>17870931
I love how the average ricer/stancefag/imbecille always pretend to know more than the thousand of engineer who made the car happen. They'll always talk big, how the cold air intake increase their booost and -4" ground clearance makes them go faster.
>>17870931
WHAT LET THAT WHORE HAPPEN TO THAT POOR GTI
?
>>17870931
Do people think that slamming their cars to the point where you can't fit a credit card between the fender and tire is beneficial? I know they want a "look" but do they honestly think that this is a good performance mod?

>im a car gurl
>proceeds to post their ugly thot ass in every shot when im trying to look at your car
No better than GAMUR GURLZ. I don't want to sound like some permavirgin RED PILLER but holy shit some stereotypes are just bang on.

not him, but old enough to have watched theater ripped versions of it and wondering why the fuck is anyone stealing VHS TVs?
What did you expect OP, normalfags ruin everything.
>golf being cluelessly river by an nderclass poseur retard
Wow, it's almost like it's the 90s/00s/10s/literally-any-year again.

Neck yourself, weeaboo. JDM was always a meaningless buzzword used by ricers
>>17871168
I'd say she's pudgy, but fat is pushing it a little. Ill-fitting clothing is more the culprit.
>>17870931
>giving this much of a shit
Neck yourself
>>17871094
What else do you expect from a cunt? "Car girls" like her probably don't even know what JDM means. They just think in associations. JDM=car chique XD TEE HEE HAY BOIS I'M A GURL DRIVER DON'T HIT ON ME TEE HEE DON'T FORGET TO SUBSCRIBE AND DONATE TO MY PAYTREON.
>>17872030
She paid for it with money from her social media orbiters and her beta providing goyfriend.
>>17870931
The Japs did this sort of shit as a joke but you fat fuck Americans had to make a pissing contest out of it. You are the niggers of car culture.
>>17872916
>implying that's an expensive build
she probably put $2k down on the car when she had it financed and ran up $2k on airlift with her credit card. you'd be surprised at how common it is with scenefags. not to mention those are ebay tier wheels that are probably sitting on tires that cost $50 each.
>>17872107
Women ruin everything. And they can do this because cunt-starved orbiters will provide them with endless validation.
>>17870931
Tweety bird floor mat from autozone = JDM son!
eBay Chinese ECU chip = JDM son!
Air freshener hangning from mirror = JDM sooooooonnnnn!!!
instagram has honestly helped me to come out of my shell its so much easyer to talk and make friends with pple who are into cars
ive basically become a regular at many of the local shows and i wouldnt have even known about any of it without instagram
Wow people addicted to their cellphones and social media are retards.
Who the fuck would have thought?
I do agree OP, instagram (and by proxy snapchat, facebook and most web3.0 stuff) are basically for people who have a hard time forming a coherent sentence and just want to show off
>>17872920
>Japs did this short of shit as a joke.
They don't take it seriously, but it isn't a joke for them. They genuinely enjoy it.

Wtf did she do to that gti? They're low enough....
car culture has always been shit even back in the 90s. social media and easily accessible tech has just enabled people with knuckle dragger IQs to shit out selfies
friendly reminder that dirt poor beaners are the real hero's keeping car culture alive in the US

>>17875320
In America people who would be considered obese in other countries are considered skinny.
this is not new news.
>>17874349
Oh god why do people make there cars on soild color of black! Fuck you tasteless people man 90's ricers did better shit than this for fucks sakes

Honestly if I lived somewhere that had Jap plates I'd put them on my Commodore.
>>17870931
They only people that go to Instagram are women and girly men. Any influence it has is with women and girly men, as proven by your pic, dumb whore and pos that only a dumb whore would care about.
The only thing to lament in car culture is that the e36, which is a fairly good cheap platform, is contantly fucked up by girly boys because if the BMW badge.

I plaster my SS in weeb stickers, the Jap plate would just finish the deal.
>>17872030
It's probably not a GTI... I hope not anyway, the fucbois where I am use the standard diesel car.. god I hate vw people.
Wait... why is everyone so mad?
Instagram is what keeps people like the Kardashians on the map and rich, yet you're disappointed that it has a bunch of idiots who are involved with cars on there too?
How stupid are you?
>>17872030
I know:( if I knew where it was I would rescue it and restore it to it's original refined-yet-hot hatch glory
{([Spoiler}])Also kill that dumbass cunt
>>17875962
Why would a degenerate even own an SS
>>17876031
Because I like it?
>>17876033
Hardly seems like a weeb car of choice, like the opposite of what a weeb would drive
>>17876036
Just because I'm a weeb doesn't mean everything in my life needs to be weeb.

itt people who think "car culture" is about being posting pics of your car online rather than actually using your car.

I fucking want to do it. I use the VE as a daily at the moment but looking at picking up something else and turning the VE into a project car. If I do so when I eventually get around to paint I would love to go full fucking itasha mode.

I only like the look of cars that are made to go fast, if it doesnt make the car faster it doesnt belong on the car. This includes shitty drift missiles, drifting is for swagkids

How dare you, sir.
In many parts of the American South, this could be viewed as relatively thin.

Well, I guess they were allies for a time...

The Japs had a huge boner for LHD yuro stuff.
