Is a crap car scene enough reason to move somewhere else??

[mmmmpsi]

Discuss. :???:

[jhadleyh]

No Im not going to move if the car scene isn't all that great. My life isn't consumed with Motor vehicles.

[ffxf50]

Well. If you're THAT into the whole car scene.

I think you should accept the fact that, if you think this: you have the best car out of all people in your area, and stay.

Since you drive a beamer and all.

But what's the point of driving a nice car if there are no other enthusiasts around to enjoy it with???

100%. As in your case, I'd be grateful. You have the opportunity to go to several different spots and see different shit. Here in Atlanta, you go to a meet and see the same cars day in and day out. I'd rather live far away and know when you come to a meet that you'll probably something different.

And also, my car involvement isn't so deep that it's going to affect where I plan to spend the rest of my life. I wouldn't give up a great place to live in order to be closer to "the scene." Later, QD.

This is true.

I'm just bored I think..

[matthewAPM]

CA...TX...nuff said

[Brick]

There is plenty of variety in the Atlanta car scene. Don't go to the same meets all the time. Get on as many different boards as you can and see where all the groups are doing stuff.

[Mantooth]

If you want to be somewhere with a car scene, move to San Francisco or Los Angeles. If you do, let me know. I'll set you up with some people.:goodjob:

[Greddypacked]

To OP about the post:

F>CK no lol unless you own a huge aftermarket store and business sucks.

[lanning]

not enough to move but enough to drive a good distance. oneSLOWex and i live in tennessee and still drive down to atlanta to chill and shit

[green91]

Im glad i don't have to be surrounded by other car owners to be happy. Gees.

[Mantooth]

I hope you're kidding...:thinking: So you're into the car scene for the attention or something? I personally could care less about hanging out and talking about cars, I like driving, that doesn't require other enthusiasts.

GA has a good car scene though so..

GA has a good car scene though so..Actually, it's a lot more fun when you're in a caravan and running shit together. Soooo much more fun.

[Elbow]

Actually, it's a lot more fun when you're in a caravan and running shit together. Soooo much more fun.

Not if you're faster then everyone else and nobody can keep up. :goodjob: lol jk.

It is fun to do a mountain run or something with a friend or two.

HOWEVER, I use to spend at least two days a week doing mountain runs alone and never had a problem not having another enthusiast with me. Meets are fun, I like hanging out with friends, but we rarely talk about cars. :lmfao:

[lanning]

i personally hate caravans and things like that

[Elbow]

X2, it's like trying to be the Fast and the Furious or trying to look bad ass for regular drivers.

[green91]

I guess my outlook is different since i live in an area that doesn't particularly like imports LOL.

there is nothing better than speeding down the interstate trying to keep up with some jackass in a honda that thinks its a damn lambo

I thought my car was quick, but when you're following TT'd Vipers, you ain't got shit lolol. If I kind a car scene wherever I'm at every week, I end up tagging along in my rental. You should have seen me following two of my friends in LA. F430 spider, F360 spider, and an SL63 comes up to play. I'm in an '10 Maxima rental car.:( I wish I would have had my car out there, it would have so much more fun.

[Elbow]

I like to push them until they hit someone.

[Mantooth]

[Elbow]

I like trying to keep up with Lambos.

Then come over and try to keep up with me.

[DriVaH]

mmmmpsi, i'll come round and give some trouble with ya.....

[Mantooth]

Then come over and try to keep up with me.I would be glad too. What do you drive?

[SHHHH]

My little brother goes to Upstate. I take my car up there every now and then. I'll hit you up next time im out. Its no M but its a convertible, that counts for something right?

[Elbow]

I would be glad too. What do you drive?

I was saying I would go borrow a friends Lambo if you wanted to follow a Lambo.

$50 you can't keep up with my E30 in the mountains. :goodjob: What do YOU drive?

[Mantooth]

I was saying I would go borrow a friends Lambo if you wanted to follow a Lambo.

$50 you can't keep up with my E30 in the mountains. :goodjob: What do YOU drive?I would love to drag with an '05 Gallardo and see how I hold up. I drive an '04 E55.

[Elbow]

I don't know anyone with a Gallardo just a Murci.

[Elbow]

Yeah, Murcis are too fast for me. Thanks, man. You have the E30 325 and the E39 M5, right? I love bimmers, especially older ones.:D

Yeah but the E39 isn't an M5...:(. I wish it was lol.

[Mantooth]

Yeah but the E39 isn't an M5...:(. I wish it was lol.Ah, still, nice car for sure. Besides, the E39 M5s are a maintenance nightmare, from what I hear.

[Fast Shadow]

it's nice but no way is it a reason to move unless your career is tied to cars or something

[Mantooth]

it's nice but no way is it a reason to move unless your career is tied to cars or somethingOr you have exuberant amount of money and only work for fun.

I have no problem with american cars, i have owned many myself. I was actually going to do a ls1 swap but to make over 600hp it was going to be cheaper to do a 2j swap since I have a friend that imports them. nissan interiors are cheap, the 350z feels like your sitting in a cockpit made by tupperware.

there's alot of truth in this post^^

dont get me wrong, i'm not trying to be an elitest or anything, but i simply never understood why the "240sx is the god of the imports" mentality completely took off. sure, there's drifting... but thats grown into more of a fad than an enjoyable "sport."

I agree its a fad! If i go to an event I get bored with it within a hour, I'd rather be driving. I liked the 240 cause its a very cheap, light weight, rwd, can throw any motor in it, its really easy to work on and many parts you can swap out with other nissan's or infiniti's.

But the majority of 240 owners are just jumping on this damn bandwagon that wont end soon enough. Guess i can't complain though cause parts are getting cheaper.


btw......i will be using a pontiac solstice tranny on my swap;)

[collins]

interesting.... mated to a 2j?

I am 100% happy about where I am located. The Rx-7 group I am in is like a family. Click my recover thread link in my sig to see how being in a little free Rx-7 club helped me get 12 guys to help build my car from a stripped shell in 3 days for the cost of parts, that got to damaged in the crash to be swapped.

No Im not going to move if the car scene isn't all that great. My life isn't consumed with Motor vehicles.
