This reads like something you’d read on an Incel message board.

Value is way less important than enjoying the car (and life).

It is already an ostentatious sports car. If you want to blend in drive a Chevy Cruze or some terrible crossover.

BTW, it’s 2020, dress how you damn well please.

Not sure why that’s hard for y’all to grasp.

Also your analogy to women is weird & massively objectifying
its obviously meant to be a joke but theres always someone in the PC crowd that cant take one

BTW i love your analogy

Not to pile on but I also agree. Good analogy and I would feel the same about a similar comment with genders reversed.

Same here! but it would have to be a 9K or 10K beater with like 90 on the dash.

You don't get it and it's understandable.

Do you see any super-modified like cars in this garage?

30 years from now - If you were to uncover a stock s2000 in a barn somewhere(similar to this video), there would definitely be crazy comments about it. -Which means you don't have to do anything to it to have value. 1/2 of you spend enough $ on mods that you could get one to race.
The car is only ostentatious in yellow, otherwise its low key. You Incel

There are some heavily modified cars in that garage.

Also, not driving your cars is super dumb. The guy who owns all those cars sucks.
