That's a fairly accurate assessment.

This is sort of where my biases come in... I dislike the Corvette too, just because.

The Camaro I hate the most is the Iroc-Z, BTW. It was the car of the 80s in my neighbourhood that the modded Civic has replaced today, at least in terms of attitude.

Bingo. Forget the engines. The difference is if you are in a classic VW bug people like you. If you are in a Camaro you are a douche-bag with no penis.

That 80s thing was for mullet wearing losers (I'm gonna wear lots of black shirts and blast AC/DC!). I've never met anyone who has/had a Camaro that I've been particularly impressed with.

I'm not sure why, whenever someone doesn't like a car, they bring length or lack of penises into the picture. I mean, it's already happened twice in this thread alone.

If you're in a classic VW nowadays, you either incredibly old or a hippy.

You're taking it far too literally, and these types of statements are not just about cars of course.

P.S. I don't like the Toyota Avalon either, but it has nothing to do with penis length. Penis length comments are appropriate with cars like the Camaro, however.

Exactly. There are two Camaros at my school. One's an '88 IROC-Z and the others a 2000. The owners both have this same "Don't mess with me, I'll bust a cap in yo grill" attitude. The 2000 is absolutely disgusting, it's a V6 and has dual Flowmasters. Sounds like a toilet.

Hey, I like the Scirocco and Kharmann Ghia. They aren't really hippy cars.

Dude, I owned a Scirocco. Still my favorite car I had.
