    A car sometimes shows status, sometimes show personality sometimes show attitude and stereotype has it, you don't want a super modified rice car when you are middle age or a senior. That makes you look an FNG when it comes to cars.


    Nakiki wi-fi lang

    Meron ako lolo late 60's na gusto niya may bass ng konti, hid, led lights sa ilalim, palaging malinis ang tsikot. Tingin ko if you know and care so much about your car you're already a car enthusiast, hence being a car enthusiast is not just about "modifying your car"
    I love stock/oem kasi and simple mods para clean look, pero masasabi ko na car enthusiast ako hehe

    Q: So what if there *is* an age limit to being a car enthusiast, will you drop by the car enthusiast office and surrender your car enthusiast license? :D

    It's but natural for us to seek out others that share our passions. But imho that passion is personal, and by its nature shouldn't be defined by other people's standards.

    My tastes in cars lean more on the conservative("matanda") side, but i wouldn't want anyone to tell me what my tastes should be like, at any age. It's not like you're dating jailbait or anything( are you? :D )

    From an early age, I have always been fascinated with anything tech; electronics, radio/RF, mechanical oddities, and of course, car audio and automotive technology in general. Now that I'm in my early 40's, this affinity is still there. I guess it's permanently engrained in my DNA. Naturally, I know a bit or two more about cars than the average guy. However, I don't mess around much with aesthetics or performance, rather, I tend to be anal (as in analytic or critical) on creature comforts (ie. in-car entertainment), DIY repairs, and fuel economy.

    i became an enthusiast during my hs/college years, that was in the 90's, panahon ng mga civic EG, corolla AEs..
    napansin ko lang, with todays newer and higher tech cars na naglalabasan, mas fascinated pa din ako sa mga cars of my generation haha, even sa mga evo lineups mas matimbang sa akin ang evo 4-6 hehe. i appreciate the gt86/BRZ/etc generations thou, pero mas inlab ako sa mga modded 90's cars.

    i still have my old AE in our garage, never fails to excites me pag sya ang gagamitin ko, that even our 2014 car cant do

    so for me, i think i has no limit, only a bracket

    i think Honda reached its peak with the B series engines

    Mitsu with the 4G63

    Toyota with the 4AG

    Nissan with the SR20

    then wala na

    it's all boring sh*t after that
