Is this a cool car for a guy to own?

[Anonymous]

Badass kind of car

Yes!!

Noo

I personally don't like to brag with an automobile. It only shows how vain someone is. Most of the people cannot afford that type of car and take up a credit to afford it or lease it just for the sake of show.

If I had the choice, then I would go for something much smaller because I don't have the need to show off. You know how the saying is. The bigger the car, the smaller something else is.

People that drive those types of expensive cars only do it so that they can show off whereas they barely have enough finances to pay for the basic insurance and the gasoline. I am not even talking about the pollution such a car causes.

If I had the choice, then this would be my kind of car

It is all I need to go from A to B and for my weekly shopping...

If you crash that you’re dead

[SueShe]

Crashing this car at 40mph is less deadly than crashing the other at 120mph...

[Asker]

Yes but I disagree. The brakes on this Porsche are great you can still drive fast and safely. With your car, you have to be wary of other stupid drivers. That car is similar to like being in a motorbike. Plus who can fit it that 😂

[SueShe]

In the place I would drive this car, the maximum speed is about 10mph if all goes well. This is a city car and a large city does not allow for fast driving.

If you think you'll be safer in this little piece of shit than in a modern car, you'll be dead wrong. These kinds of things were classified as motorcycles too, so even legally they didn't need much equipment. No ABS, no airbags, no power steering or any actual comfort features, no reverse gear either, god help you when something inevitably fails. Older cars weren't well constructed and in an impact all of the force is likely to go straight towards the cabin, not the case with any modern car. You'd probably be better off at a 140mph crash in a new 911 than a 40mph crash in this thing. This sort of stuff didn't have powerful engines (which is bad when they're not even adequately fast so everyone around you will have to go slowly because of you), but reason they weren't powerful is partly because the car just wasn't well constructed, so just going over 60 will be dangerous. Also, the pollution from cars in dangerous is laughably low, and again, modern 911s are likely more ecological than these smoke puking death traps. Also, have fun riding a 4 foot car at 30mph behind a 16 wheeler.

@Sargentcaptain Thanks for your feed-back. To end this interesting story, let's just say that I don't have the need to brag with a car that I cannot afford and that I have to beg for money to show off.

[Sargentcaptain]

I agree with that. All of these pre teens asking about the coolness of some dumb luxury sports car they'll never get to touch, let alone drive, are just dumb kids. I also like practical cars, but that doesn't mean they have to be the size of a toaster.

[jamesgoldman]

You say about affordability, one of these is good for £20,000

[SueShe]

@jamesgoldman Originally, I was going to go for this car

https://silodrome.com/brutsch-mopetta-car/

but it lack space to put my weekly grocery shopping...

[jamesgoldman]

€69000 nearly as much as the Porsche

[SueShe]

@jamesgoldman Yes but who can claim to have an original Brütsch-Mopetta? Not even the richest Saudi prince can come up with something as original as that.

Everyone can drive a German car. All it takes is daddy's money or a credit with a bank that you repay with an interest of 18%.

[jamesgoldman]

The other 4 owners but yeah anyone can drive a luxury car if they (or their parents) can afford it with or without the bank

[Sandeeppingping]

Yea definitely bro that's a car obviously most of us will never own, My only problem with porsches specifically is that they're all the same and it doesn't get you the same reaction as showing up in a bit more expensive car, but yea in that league either that or an R8 but I'd still go with the porsche, maybe I'm not sure, maybe a black matte Mercedes GT c

[DermalPunch]

Porsches have become a bit pedestrian I agree. I would still have a Panamera and I like the Macan. I saw a gorgeous custom candy coat sea-foam green Aston DB9 and I was in love. Really any Bentley except the SUV (🤮) and Wraith would be just beyond.

[Sargentcaptain]

Nope, I hate modern cars and Porches are overrated.

On a side note, I was today years old when I found out what Kosovo license plates look like. Also, I was today years old when I found out someone from Kosovo has a (likely stolen) Porsche.

[Guy13]

Like hello, yes. Just don't get the daily rotation of women pregnant !! Beautiful automobile !!!

[DryGermanGuy]

What sense does such a car make outside of Germany? 🤔

[ibodi]

No I always think that is like frog eyes

[DermalPunch]

I think it's a cool car for me to own.

[exitseven]

it is cool but sort of pretentious

[Dinosaursandanime65]

You put groceries in the front, right?

[Dnice1]

It's not my cup of tea

[TrueConfection]

Definitely
