Anyone else refuse to drive foreign cars?
I have only ever driven and bought cars made in these God given United States of America. Even if I was a billionaire I would never defect and buy a European sports car. My heart will always be stateside as I would be driving a c7z.

Currently I drive a 5.0 Mustang with an American flag on the antenna. Shit has full bolt ons and a centrifugal supercharger putting out nearly 850rwhp. I'm proud of my car and my brothers that made this possible due to freedom. This wouldn't be possible in foreign land.

It would be a tough call really. I've never driven either so I had to see. However, I refuse to drive a foreign car. If you gave me a Ferrari right now I wouldn't even drive it. I would sell it immediately ( towed to the dealer ) and buy an American made piece of art and machinery.

Not at all anon. What do you not get about American superiority? The car was innovated for the masses here in this sacred land and turned into a symbol of freedom as the decade went by.


There's no fighting it. Just accept it.

I've had 3 cars in total. All 3 have been American GM vehicles, and only 1 was built in another country.
1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Z34 (built in Canada)
1998 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP (built in Kansas)
2004 Saturn Ion 2 Quad Coupe (built in Tennessee)

I'm not opposed to import cars. That's just how things played out.

Out of the 30+ cars I've owned, only two have been foreign. A 94? Camry I got for free with a 2.2 that threw a rod out the block within a half hour, and a 97 Maxima I paid $200 for.

I actually loved that Maxima, it had 225k on it but ran like new, drove it for half a year then sold it for $1500. Only thing I ever did to that car was cut the rotors and put in quickstruts out back.

Name a car company that is better than Ford.

They have performance cars for every price range, from a Fiesta ST for $22,000 to a GT if you happen to have $400,000 burning a hole in your pocket. The Mustang GT blows any other $32,000 car out of the water. They make the best pickups in the world. The nicest, most reliable econoboxes in the world. The nicest work vans in the world. The Taurus SHO could shit on an STI.

Sure, Snek is the fastest street legal car, but Chrysler as a whole can't compete. Neither can any other company.

Trump doesn't need to be elected, because America is already great again, thanks to Ford.

>>13973532

Unironically, I'll probably never own a foreign car without the intention of reselling it. I like Mopar products more than anything else and haven't ever considered buying a competing product. If I was stupid rich, that'd probably change. I'm a big fan of high end exotics, especially McLarens, but they're not in the realm of reality.

About the highest performance factory car I could ever afford would be a Viper, or whatever is replacing it. Either way, it's more fun to build on cheaper Mopar platforms for me. I'd rather take a Challenger R/T up to 800hp than buy a hypercar at those levels.
