I thought this was supposed to be a place where a car enthusiast could be a car enthusiast and get to hang with other car enthusiasts. This isn't some fucking battleground over who likes what, that's not what I think of when I think about the Oppo community. I think of it as a place to share what we love about cars and be treated equally. I personally think he Lamborguini Muria is somewhat ugly, but you don't see me commenting on posts praising it bashing on people because they like it. I'm not a fan of ricers, but you don't see me running up and saying, "Your car sucks!". That's not what Oppo is for. That's my .2 cents.

Lamborguini Muria? Seriously DOOD?

But I totally see what your saying. Too much hate. Needs more car love.

Watch how fast that equality flies out the window when you post Oppo blasphemy like this:

"I personally think he Lamborguini Muria is somewhat ugly"

But seriously, it's better than most places on the Internet, but fanboys will be fanboys.

The Lamborghini Miura is somewhat ugly.

This reminds me of that one time I said '90s Corollas were fun to drive.

Note to self: never praise any aspect of the Toyota Corolla on Oppo.

It's more the front that does it for me. From the side though, it is quite nice.
And you are right, it is better than some places. (Even with the burden of kinja)

I'm glad we all have opinions and that we express them—that's how discussion takes place. I just hate when Jalopnik as a collective mind 'decides' what is good and bad, then evaluates other people according to these values.

What's wrong with FWD?

Nothing. Just a bit understeer. But honestly, nothing wrong. Especially when you take the corners with three wheels on the ground.

I would just take those 2 rectangular vents on the hood and move them. They just don't really look nice to me.

I think most of Oppo generally agrees with the fact that FWD doesn't necessarily make a bad car, we just jokingly rag on it from time to time.

I wasn't trying to do any hate, surprisingly my rant was from a POV that us enthusiasts need to stop tooting our own horns so loudly we scare off possible enthusiasts. Here's a Lambo you might like more than the Miura

Altough the RWD is much better. But honestly, i once put my fwd kia on a local amateur rally and it was the best drive i ever done in ages.

Espada? Nice, but like Matt Bellamy (great musician, look up him in the band Muse), our favorite lambo is the Aventador in matte black.

I just figured I could share my love of SMART cars, Hello Kitty, and Rampage Jackson in one place, and that place was OPPO.

EVERYBODY CHILL OOOUUUUT.

I think that, once someone spends enough time reading Oppo, it should be apparent that we try to be respectful around here when it comes to other people's opinions. Disagreements will happen, but usually not fights.

ADDvanced expressed his opinion in a manner that His Stigness didn't like and that doesn't gel with the respect thing I mentioned (especially when you consider that people have told His Stigness that the ///AMG decal needs to go without being asses about it). There's no need to blow this out of proportion - just let the fallout happen.

And besides, after this little incident , I figured that ADDvanced would do plenty to risk getting himself kicked out if he was ever invited in.

I agree, the front isn't the most appealing angle. I think the SV is the way to go when it comes to Miuras. Jota ain't bad either, but the front isnt great.

And always praise the Miata. Everyone around here loves the Miata. Hitler could drive over Scarlett Johansson and her Corgi in a Miata and everyone would still love the Miata.

I just read the thread you linked to.

ADDvanced is a fucking retard, plain and simple. So sue me for saying that. That was pathetic beyond belief.

I'm still shaking my head at that. God fucking damn.

Ugh. Fuckin gawker. I installed the greasemonkey script wherever possible, and it's a big improvement. Sad that it takes the site's users to improve the "improvements" but this community is the one that's worth it.

And the people who make the scripts should get paid for it.

At times like these I wish I was supreme overlord, because the banning would be sweet.

Since I can't do that, I can just whip out the DDoS.

I mean...what. Don't look at me like that.
