I recognize appreciating cool machines, I really do. I’ve just never been able to wrap my head around being a car guy. Spending huge chunks of change on a car, consistently modifying it, watching car shows all the time. I just dont get it. What’s the big draw for you?

    I’ve been into cars as art from the moment I saw a Lamborghini. I view the mechanical work/modifications as a means to an end rather than the fun part.

    I’ve not done a ton of performance upgrades, but I’ve upgraded my clutch to a ceramic and now, every time I shift, I get a more satisfying feel. It’s even better knowing I made that improvement myself.

    Most of it comes down to the sense of pride and accomplishment I get from the finished result.

      The mechanical feel is a big part for me.

      Driving a rental 2025 legacy, made me hate cars in about 30 seconds. So if thats your car experience i see why people hate it.
