Some of my least favorite/most annoyed with car-based Tropes:

James bond = Aston Martin

Mallcrawler

I’d Rather push a ______ than drive a ______

That’s a girls car

Any variation on the theme “does it match your purse?”

______Gate scandal

“The loud pedal”

“slushbox”

“autotragic”

Mommy mobile - alternatively - Soccermoms car

...That’s about all I can think of right now. What are you least favorite tropes?

I prefer “automagic” myself because it runs on witchcraft and wizardry...

“Luxury Truck”. So maybe I want heated leather in an F150. Still pulls a boat / trailer and I can fill the bed with gravel. Doesn’t make it any less of a truck.

‘Murican cars only go fast in a straight line

Old man’s car or some variation thereof (Though not entirely unjustified)

“Miata is always the answer”

Some variation of “Why did you buy ___ when you could’ve bought ______”

The phrase “What do you NEED to drive that for?” and variations thereof

“American cars suck, Japanese/German cars are great!” or some variation thereof.

Any cracks at General Motors that just amount to the same old-tired cars being trodden out to prove “GM Sucks”

Anyone who calls the Escalade “A Real Cadillac”

Blatant Fanboyism of any car company

That’s all I’ve got so far.

American cars are unreliable/less safe/poor quality.

Toyotas are boring.

‘Built not bought’

‘3 Series competitor’

That’s all I can think of right now, but I’m sure there are mow.

“If you drive a normal car you’re not an enthusiast”

pretty much the only one i hate because it’s impossible to define what is “normal”.

Hey look guys! It’s the new competitor to the BMW 3-Series!

About as interesting as a non-M, current 3er, if I’m honest.

All trucks and SUV’s are bro if they have a lift. I’ve met way more bro’s that don’t drive trucks.

Litterally every time i see someone try to use that as a valid point in an argument i just want to send them a smack through an e-mail.

“The new Colorado is too big even if I’ll never buy one!!!!!!”

“I want more wagons!!!!, Then goes on to call the new Clubman ugly on every single post about the Clubman.”

“There’s this really good looking new car everyone loves, time to be the hipster that I am by going against the current and calling it ugly!”

“There’s this really bad looking car everyone hates, time to jump on the bandwagon and call it ugly!”

Basically anything on the FP.

Some variation of “Why did you buy ___ when you could’ve bought ______”

Because I wanted to, that’s why. If you want x go buy x but I wanted y so shut up.

That's the only response you need

“______ is a chick’s car.” Okay and your point?

“______ is not a REAL 4x4 because of _____” So because it’s not some rusted heap of shit on 5 inch lift and 40’s, it’s not able to go off road? K, how many half shafts have you broken because you’re wheels are too heavy? 5, 10?

I remember having a rage fit about the whole “AWD isn’t 4wd!” thing a while back. First...who cares?! second...actually its just the one thing.

Locking differentials just let you get stuck in more remote places.

So long as you know you and your vehicles limitations I don’t see why you can’t take it off road.

V8s = the only manly choice

VWs all have electrical issues

BMW drivers are pricks (although I admit there is a solid basis for this one)

riceburner

Toyota=boring

Subarus are for lesbians in the Northwest

I need AWD to be safe. In Southern California.

FWD sucks

“twisties” for turns / “twist” for torque

“torques” pluralized

HammerheadFistpunch > samssun 10/16/2015 at 20:55

Yes to all

“Step on the loud pedal and the engine roars to life producing more torques than a meth addled Thor. With so much twist on tap there’s no reason to row the shifter with it’s rifle bolt action to make the most of this mill, even in the twisties.”

Late to the party, but I hate the ones about sports cars. I love sports cars, and would always drive a coupe over a sedan or hatchback. But you can’t avoid derision. It’s either a penis-extension thing or it’s a midlife crisis thing. Or quarter life in my case.

I just think they’re cool and want to drive them.

My biggest annoyance is the big trucks = compensating.

I don’t even have a big truck, I drive a freaking Milan, but COME ON maybe someone just likes big trucks?
