if you could go back to any decade and relive its car culture how far back would you go back?

I tried to answer this myself but I have interest in going back to the 30s up until the early 90s

This is the correct answer.

Only commies and weebs will say otherwise.

>absurdly unregulated cars in the 30s with eight cylinder engines
>can't get a DWI because fuck you I'm drunk
>prior to 1934 can mail order machine guns because God bless America.

>90s has cars that are new and cool and old and available without TOO much of a boomer tax
>hopefully 90s counts as prior to George Bush Sr., import bans so Chink and Ruskie guns are still available and cheap.

There is no other answer.

I don't have to go far back, but I'd want to have the 80's again.

Not you but the whole ban on import sounds to me that they KNEW they had no chance if they imported Japanese cars since they were so cheap and also reliable enough to compare it to American cars in the same and slightly higher price class that they'd go out of business.

Detroit would be what it is today 15 years earlier if this import ban wasn't made.

If extended to the 70s to include stupid fiberglass body extensions and psychedelic paint jobs, shit would be perfect.

I would go back to the 2010's because all of the 20th-century's cars were available in that period.

As a white male, I'd pick 1950s America.

My granddad tells me stories about racing big blocks down by the beach with the boys and then going home with a qt grill at night.
