Do you believe that you are an extension of your vehicle or your vehicle of you? If so, why?

 

Yeah I am what I drive : HOT SHIT

What about you?

 

Didn't you see fight club?................

"You are not your job.
You are not how much you have in the bank.
You are not the contents of your wallet.
You are not your ing Khakis.
You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake.
You are the all-singing, all-dancing crap of
the world."

or

"Like everyone else, I had become a
slave to the IKEA nesting instinct.
If I saw something like clever coffee
table sin the shape of a yin and yang,
I had to have it. I would flip through
catalogs and wonder, "What kind of dining
set defines me as a person?" We used to
read pornography. Now it was the Horchow
Collection. I had it all. Even the glass
dishes with tiny bubbles and imperfections,
proof they were crafted by the honest,
simple, hard-working indigenous peoples of
wherever."

No, I do NOT think that my car defines me as a person.

 

No.

 

No. My car is first and foremost, an appliance that gets me around. The fact that it's fun to drive is just a cool bonus. I'd stop well short of saying it's anything close to an extension of self.

 

I really believe my personality is expressed through my vehicle, so in a way I guess one could say I am what I drive.

Somedays I'm a laid back don't care kind of guy who pokes around in an old Nissan 4x4 pickup, somedays I'm a 20-something kid banging around in a slammed CRX-Si, somedays I'm a bit rebellious and ride around on a 650 Nighthawk, and other days I'm a 40-something guy who loves his convertible and can't think of a better ride than an S2000, but then again, I can't afford a Ferrari 360 Spyder...

 

A couple of weeks ago I passed a 360 Modena Spyder with the top up; the top looked cheap and disgusting, and ruined the appearance of an otherwise gorgeous car.

 

That's to encourage you to always put the top down I LOVE those cars!

My car isn't an extension of me, it just happens to reflect some of my personality. Just as any decision you make throughout your life.

 

No.
