Am i the only one who noticed this phenomena? I always see people on forums bashing the 914 with insults like: "it's a slow crappy car" or "it's hideous" or even "my Honda Civic is faster than a 914". Comments like those make me want to bash some skulls (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif) or at least show up the Civic dude in a race haha. i think that it's just plain ignorance on their part, but it still aggravates me..

This sentiment echos on a number of forums I've seen. The RoadMaster guys complain because they don't seem to have the love that the Caprice and Impala cars get, the late 80s Monte Carlo CLs and LSs aren't up to the SS look and us poor 3rd Gen Monte guys appear screwed every which way because nobody likes our cars and not only is there no aftermarket specifically for those three years, but finding what you need in a yard is near impossible. Then there's the ugly little bug that couldn't as I've had people call it.
Frankly, it doesn't matter to me what people think. If they hate any car of mine, so what? I didn't buy them to make others happy. If they love them, that's awesome! I think a lot of the rice stuff is an exhibition of poor taste, but they can do whatever they want. I also think that there are waaaay to many Camaros on the road and they oughta scrap all the V6 ones and use most of the V8 ones for parts cars. Bottom line - enjoy your car. Not everyone will like it and you should embrace that because really, do we want everyone to like our cars? |
