Who is a car enthusiast?
Is there a name for liking cars but not liking cars?
Car fans - what do you call yourselves?
If I drive a Prius, can I still be a "car enthusiast/person"?
Yes ofcourse you can. If you like cars, you're a car guy, it's that simple.
Now the thing is, most of us car guys spend more than necessary on cars/driving and sacrifice practicality for more fun. Prius drivers are generally not car guys, but they don't necessarily hate cars either. You'll most likely get weird looks when you tell people you're a car guy, driving a Prius. Hell if one of my car friends would get a Prius I'd try to find out what's wrong with him. But I mean, if you don't care about the stigma and you don't mind driving a Prius, don't let anyone stop you. ;)
More on reddit.comI see the word 'enthusiast' thrown around quite a bit, I am just curious -- how do you define a car enthusiast?
- passionate about cars? Having good knowledge about cars?
- good at driving? or a fast driver?
- owns a fast car
