In the Very Serious business of cars, there is no shortage of people and cultures that take themselves very seriously. Without jokes or smiles. Who are they?
Last week, I asked you guys to identify different car cultures and cliques that are very serious about themselves and their interests. The people who are not joking around, man.
The Steam-Powered Engines Or Bust Crowd? The Five-Spoke Wheel Society? The Middle-Mounted Gas Cap Only Association? The Wooden Steering Wheel Brigade?
Let’s see who you thought up.
The Porsche People (A-McGee9-3)
Dropping $400,000 on a single model.
And Also The Subaru People (dannyzabolotny)
Tied.
The Concours People (CommodoreFlushington)
They just hate submarines for some reason.
