I'm a car guy. I love cars. I see things I like about almost every car, even ones that are somewhat poor examples.

For example, nothing wrong with a minivan. It is made for a specific purpose. A prupose that is no longer in my life (thankfully). Nevertheless, they are good for what they're made for but not good for what our 911's are made for. Try to hammer a nail with a screwdriver and it will do a poor job...AND it will screw up the screwdriver AND the nail.

Another example, lowriders. you couldn't get me to sit down in one much less drive one or own one. BUT, the guys that build the best of them display some real design and fabrication abilities. Granted for things I just do NOT understand the value of, but i will not "diss" a man's ride if at all possible. It's like speaking ill of another man's beloved....a SERIOUS no-no in my book. YMMV.
