Visiting as a student? If you do end up going here you'll see these kinds of cars all the time man ( all these are from like the first month of school ), this place is full of them. It actually kind of makes you jaded though, like you'll freak for about the first semester or two but then it's just like, "oh, there's the 3rd GT-R I've seen today" and it just becomes normal :|

No amount of fancy cars will make West Lafayette less of a shithole town. What a shithole.
Unless you're getting in-state tuition, go somewhere nicer.

Man what makes you say that? I'm from the suburbs of Indy so I don't have a dog in the fight but it's really not that bad, just the same as the other hundreds of Midwestern towns, nothing going on and nothing to do.

I grew up in the DC area but have lived in Madison, WI since I came here for college. I'm now 32.
My ex-gf went to Perdue and at one point I went with her to visit her friends who were still all in West Lafayette. It was run down, ugly, and really didn't have much going for it. Sure you've got your usual college bars but that's about it. Madison is easily 10x nicer of a place to go to school.
Compared to DC, Madison is very sleepy and midwestern, but also really nice in its own way. We've got amazing food, lakes in the summer, and enough going on to hold the interest of a 30something with disposable income like myself—along with a low enough cost of living that it's pretty easy to have disposable income.
All of my admittedly limited experience with the state of Indiana makes it seem pretty crappy compared to Wisconsin. Although if you're comparing somewhat big cities, neither Milwaukee nor Indianapolis are all that impressive.

Things have changed from when I was there in the 90s. That is for certain. More farm trucks and beat up Chevy Cavilers.

To be honest, your impression of Indiana isn't exactly wrong. Apart from Indy (which thanks to the additional revenue and attention brought in by the Super Bowl a few years ago is turning into a much more interesting city) and the nearby suburbs most of it is just farmland and small backwater towns with not a lot in between. Most people would be bored shitless but I actually kind of like it, we have a lakehouse in a one-stoplight town of 600 people and life up there is so peaceful and relaxing and slow even compared to my hometown in the 'burbs.
Purdue just kind of reflects the state itself. They've started to renovate a lot of the campus and surrounding town in the last five or so years so it's getting much better, but I won't deny that West Lafayette is still nowhere near up to par with other college towns like Madison. It's an engineering school and the campus reflects that, I guess.

I went to the USGP in Indy several years ago. We were in a big group of people who had a bunch of money (just not me) and they thought they'd be able to waltz on in to some fancy restaurant downtown with no reservation during race weekend. The hostess at this place suggested we head towards Broad Ripple. This one dude from Texas went, "wait you want me to check out a broad's nipple saywhutnow?"
