You get to meet one:
You get to keep one:
You get to elevate one:
You get to denounce one:
I'll go first:
Meet: TVR Sagaris - Looks wild, drives wild, has wild ergonomics, and low weight. It was a dying gasp of the former TVR, and amazing one.
Keep: Ferrari F50 - [Weekend Warrior]-Don't care what anyone says about this car vs the F40. If I had the money I'd buy it, and drive it. This is one of the cars that really got me into cars. Love the sound, love the shifter, love the looks, love the idea behind the car.
Elevate: Koenigsegg - Seems to do what the Bugatti Veyron does, but better, cooler, and is run by someone with serious vision. Easily my favorite modern Hyper Car. In American pop culture though this German owned, French built car is the first thing out of most peoples mouths when talking about crazy Vmax and power figures. Why would I want a car that feels so sedate at high speeds? Isn't it supposed to thrilling to go 250mph? I want to get out of the car and know, with sense of my being that I went that fast. I want my body and my mind to remember that experience. The Koenigsegg just seems to push those buttons much better than the Veyron does. I don't have the Veyron, It's a really car, but it's not as cool as most people seem to think IMO.
Denounce: McLaren MP4-12C - It just seems like a very generic car to me. I can imagine that the McLaren built a computer and asked it to design a car, and the MP4-12C is what is spit out. It's just not an exciting car, and I would never own one. If someone gave me one I'd sell it and get something else. The 458Italia would my choice over the MP4, but I'd have a P1 in a second over either of them.
- This is the vehicle you really want to drive, one that you could sit down and listen to or watch on YouTube endlessly all day. It's been your dream to experience it, but you hold reservations about owning it for one reason or another.
- Allowances: Drive it in it's element as much anger as you please for an afternoon, but then give up the keys.
You get to keep one:
- You know you'll love this car. Everything about it suits you somehow. It was a the poster car you said you said you'd own someday. Even as you've grown older and learned more about it, even as you see how it compares against it's successor and modern day competition, you'd still have it over anything else. The things that made it so desirable when you were young[er] have aged like a good wine. It's flaws only add to it's character, and pull you in even more. You cannot escape it. You need this in your life.
- Allowances: This one goes in your garage, to be used as you see fit. It can be your daily driver, weekend warrior, or maybe a garage queen. The point is; You get to come home, or wake up everyday and grab the keys to the car of your dreams if you so choose. You cannot sell it however it's part of your life now, for better, or worse.
You get to elevate one:
- This hero does great things, has accomplished great feats, or maybe it just gets something very right. However it's constantly overshadowed by one considered to be 'greater' or more significant. The say nobody remembers 2nd place, but what if the one in 2nd is greater appearance would make you believe?
- Allowances: Just name a vehicle you think deserves more credit or attention than it gets.
You get to denounce one:
- Everybody has one. It's that car that just about everyone loves. The one that gets endless praise for reasons that you cannot fathom. Maybe it's the zealotry, maybe it's looks, maybe it's the power, or maybe it's just..because. Whatever the reason, you know that it's not as good as everyone makes it out to be. If it was up to you maybe this car wouldn't have been made, or maybe you just want to take it down a peg.
- Allowances: Let the hate flow, but keep it civil. Vent away about why you hate it. You can just name it or post a picture if you like too.
