What happens when two gearheads fight over who’s got the better car?
Me: '61 Karmann Ghia Cabriolet (refer to lower right sidebar picture)
Chris: '93 Nissan Sentra Super Saloon (JDM)
Me: en garde!
Chris: two words my friend
Chris: air conditioning
Me: oh yeah? wrong headers!
Chris: you want another 2?
Chris: stereo system
Chris: how about another 2?
Me: oh yeah? folding roof
Chris: better acceleration
Chris: another 2 still?
Me: rear drive!
Chris: sway bar
Me: flat four
Chris: more horses
Me: more low end torque
Chris: independent suspension
Me: live axle
Chris: ah forget it
Chris: I should win on the first two words alone
Me: not in mountain roads punk!
It gets really personal and ugly after this.
Moral: You're asking a bunch of tools which is the better car? Naturally, they'll proudly proclaim their own as the victor. Don't bother asking why. There will always be reasons. Nevermind if they're logical or not.
Where pride is involved, irrationality will always persist. It's the attachment that impairs all logic.
Damn straight!, they would say.
