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?

    What I don’t understand is how you could not be into cars. There are few things more thrilling than driving a proper sports car the way it was designed to be driven.

    It surely doesn’t hurt that I’m a geek, so I’m naturally attracted to anything electronic or mechanical.

    If you don’t enjoy driving, part of it might have to be due to the fact that you’ve only ever been behind the wheel of boring commuter cars. Take a manual Supra or 400Z for a test drive sometime, and tell me it doesn’t change your opinion of cars. If that doesn’t work for you, then I don’t know what to tell you. To each their own.

      Sitting behind the wheel of something belching gas that requires full concentration just isn’t that interesting. Biking is a much more enjoyable activity.

        What are your thoughts on EV and Hydrogen-powered sports cars? They don’t exist (yet), but if they did, would that help change your mind?
