    As a 5-year old kid with a burning hatred for cars and an undying love for all things aviation, my dream car was an Impreza with comically large wings and that iconic “555” livery. That was literally the last time I had any passion for cars until I left college, when I stumbled upon a 1st generation Celica. It was literally love in first sight. As an adult the 1st generation Celica remains my dream car to this day. I know Toyotas are known for their reliability and safe power gains, but goddamnit the Celica and the 2000GT are living proof that they also could produce something gorgeous. Attainable or not, they remain a dream for somebody else.
    We can all relate to having Toyotas as a workhorse for the family. Here especially in Southeast Asia it’s even a status symbol for the entire household. Thanks for sharing how much a dream car means to a car enthusiast.

      While I do put classic cars above anything else, I enjoy looking at the “blob eye” WRX whenever possible because chances are it’s always blue, and would always have massive rear spoilers for styling.

      I mean there is some truth in that, but it's also good to just learn to love what you got. Go experience more with the car you currently have. Go for an awesome road trip with your best friend or so. Soon you'll find that you love the car so much that it's hard to even think about selling it.
      Buying new exciting cars is cool but imo it's better to strike a balance. You can definitely "experience more" even with your current car.

    I think the issue isn’t that you haven’t found your dream car; it’s that your idea of a ‘dream car’ is too idealized. A dream car is still just a car, and like anything we hype up in our minds, reality rarely lives up to those inflated expectations. It sounds like you’re chasing not the car itself, but the idea of a car that will somehow be perfect and solve all your frustrations, which just isn’t realistic.
    This is true with other things too, like relationships. We often imagine the ‘perfect’ partner who checks every box and exists only in the parts of our life we want them in-while staying out of the parts we don’t. But perfection, in cars or people, just doesn’t exist. It’s a trap we all fall into when we overthink and idealize things

    When I was in high school I always wanted a Dodge Challenger. I eventually got one after graduating college. It was amazing for the first year, then when I saw other challenger owners with v8’s, I got dissatisfied with my v6. After the lease was up I upgraded to a v8 with a shaker hood, then next year the demon came out. Couldn’t afford it, but it made me look at my Challenger differently again. But I can relate to what you’re going through, I think it’s human nature 100 percent. Reality is never as sweet as the dream.

    Your story, reminds me so much of how I got into cars. It stems from the reliability of a facelift 8th Gen Corolla that my family had and the adrenaline rush that I would get when my dad would do rolling burnouts in his Ram 2500, that and playing NFS Underground as a kid.
    I’ve always been around cars. Whether it was a Datsun 510, Chevy Nova, SVT Cobra, SRT4 or MR2. So when it came time to search for a car, I wanted something fun. AE86 or 240sx ofcourse two cars that get beaten to a pulp. So I kept looking and came across my current passion the Lexus SC300. It ticked all the boxes for me. Toyota, RWD, and a Straight Six. The fact that the A80 Supra was based on the SC/Soarer Z30 and parts where interchangeable was just icing on the cake.
    I will say after owning an SC and finally getting to seat and experience an A80 Supra, it definitely was a never meet your heroes type of thing for me. It’s like I finally understood why the A80 sold as poorly as it did, here in the US. Now don’t get me wrong I still like the A80 but it changed my view between both cars. It made me appreciate my SC more.
    You will inevitably be back behind the wheel of the A80/Z30 chassis, there’s just something about it that draws people back in after selling it. You’re brother is a prime example with buying and selling his Supra’s. Next time consider getting an SC/Soarer you might like the change of pace and the familiarity that comes pretty much the same chassis as the A80 with some slight differences.
    As for favorite cars, I still want to own a AE86 at some point and maybe a LC500. I can’t wait for the Celica Fastback content as I love those old Celica’s.

    I've always wanted an NSX-R between 1992-1995. The car is performance and stability combined with engineering technology and some other specialties that really speaks to me. The car is, in itself, a car designed to destroy. However, if I lose interest in it, I will keep it anyways. Not because it's rare or expensive, but because it has story. Soichiro Honda and a few other whack heads wanted to build a race car, and with the years of learning, determination and love, they assembled a race car. The NSX Type-R is the good ending to a story, not just a race car.

And owning one after searching for 15 years is as good as I always imagined. But nothing rusts where I live. And it took me an year to build it. I don't regret it and I'll never sell it.

I couldn't possibly put that love into words. As a daily driver, I can't help but love every moment I get to spend behind the wheel. It's mostly stock, no turbo or S/C, just a bit of OEM+ sprinkled around the car. I don't doubt many fall in and out of love with their cars, but I think some of us have found true love and no matter which situation applies to you personally, it sure is a beautiful thing that these bits of metal can inspire such wonderful romance.

    I think a MR2 would be a good choice if you ever decide to get something different, in my opinion its been one of the most fun experiences driving i've had recently. Personally I think its one of the best japanese sports cars in terms of driving experience and overall fun.

    The first time I saw this video title, I was upset that you mocked me if I couldn't afford my dream car. After reading the comments for a bit and watching the video, your story made me want to pursue it even more lol. Anyway, here's my story. TLDR: I Watched an MCM video that made me fall in love with Cressida.
    As a young boy, I was never attached to or fond of the car scene.Even when my dad bought his first car, i just couldn't feel it. Yeah, it's a car and it sits in our garage. Fast forward to 2 years ago, i stumbled upon Initial D. My friends and others said it's good, and i watched it. And oh boy, it was freaking good. It introduces me to great JDM cars like AE86, the Silvia's, RX7 especially the FC, the EVO gang that beat AE86, god foot R34, Shinigami R32, and Bunta's GC8 WRX coupe. It also introduced me to a bit of rally scene.
    I found EVO and WRX are cool as heck, so i tried to search it on local marketplace. It's expensive as hell, even the converted Lancer were priced nearly the same as the original. Haven't really thought about it anymore, but still looking for one and thinking that I maybe bought the Lancer or Galant and convert it myself. One night my friend and I chat about our favorite cars. After that, i watched youtube as usual, and then i found one video that changed my life. Mighty Car Mods 10s Cresta.
    I never watched video like that before, prob one of the best youtube video i've ever watch and it made me fell into car rabbit hole. Their production quality, the soundtracks, and their story to bring Cresta from JP to AUS and modified it to the max and Brought it to the drag strip. I've never felt such joy watching a RUclips video, and it convinced me that this car (well, the x70 Cressida because its sister car was never sold in my country) is the only car I want right now.
    It's cheap now, looks cool, comfy, RWD, and large engine bay that can fit V8 there. Never saw it in my area before, so i had an "Is that a Supra" moment when i saw it a few week ago. Well at current situation I honestly dont know i could afford one. But if i had one, I will swap it's 1GE engine with 1UZ VVTi w/ manual trans on it and mod it to look like the Chaser pic i found on the internet. Maybe in a few years i will grow bored of it and repeat the cycle again.

    Cars really feel alive. They breathe, they pump fluids through their bodies, they send electrical signals to operate parts of themselves, just like us. You said it, they really do have these personalities all unique from one another even when it's the same make and model their environment changes them. I own a 2002 z71 Tahoe that has been in my family since it was new, I grew up in it and now I'm rebuilding it and that has made it my favorite car in the entire world. It's not my dream car, but it is definitely the most important car to me. You made some really good points and that is a car should resonate with your soul. Then you know you have the right one - or two or three!

And owning one after searching for 15 years is as good as I always imagined. But nothing rusts where I live. And it took me an year to build it. I don't regret it and I'll never sell it. Cool looks and sounds great. Feels more raw than a GT86.

      Some cars bring that emotion to the top right off, others grow on you unexpectedly. Time passes and the Honeymoon is over, some have enough mystique to hold you longer, doing something different I agree from time to time helps, I have multiples of the same thing and a newer model atm. I think a community to be involved with helps also and friends with similar likes. Being able to afford to have and do helps as well.

    • @driftking4AGE

      I think the basic human emotion of wanting more is innately built into our DNA, put there by GOD. If we become complacent, then there is no growth, and that’s not what humans do. We are never satisfied. We are constantly exploring, pioneering to new depths and uncharted waters towards the unknown. It is that something that GOD put in us to keep on keeping on. Moving forward.

      That's absolutely what I've found with my cars tbh (Clio 172 Cup, mk3 Civic). They aren't super duper special by online culture standards but they're just really really nice and I still think they're both really pretty.
      Yes, it's a lot of work to keep them on the road sometimes (the newer one is 22 years old) but they're still reliable enough to be practical and I don't see myself wanting to get rid of either any time soon. I might want a small offroader like a mk1 Jimny at some point but my Dad has a couple of those we go trekking in from time to time so it's not like they're gonna be out of reach any time soon.

    • @CaptainHat
      @CaptainHat 2 месяца назад

      The trick is to have a realistic sense of what you really want in a car, I think. The Clio is reasonably affordable to run daily, comfortable enough while still having sharp enough edges to be fun, and simple enough that I can fix most problems myself. It doesn't have a lot of mod cons or driver aids but frankly I don't need them; it's got a stereo that goes as loud as I need it to and an engine that's powerful enough to be fun without being overwhelming and for me, that's enough.
      The Honda is *completely* analogue, looks like an 80s vision of a spaceship and weighs about the same as an empty cigarette package, and as a result it's such a direct driving experience that it doesn't need to be super powerful to be fun and there are few enough about that it really turns heads these days, I freaking love it :)

    I still have the e34 that was my first car. I also have an F11 as a daily so I don't depend on that e34 anymore. But this car is my absolute dream and has been that for 5 years now. I absolutely love it. I bought it cheap while I was still studying, and it got me where I needed to go every day with no issues for two years. Only then when I was earning enough money to get a reliable daily it started having some issues. And sure, these issues may get expensive and whatnot, but I owe this car so incredibly much. It got me through my studying time incredibly cheaply and surprisingly reliably. It allowed me and my friends to make weekend trips. And even now. Every time I see this car I have to giggle. Every time I sit in this car it feels like coming home. Every time we arrive at our destination I am proud of this car for doing such a good job. Also it keeps me busy. There is rust. There are parts that need replacement. There are leaks to be fixed... there is a lot to do. But guess what. If I spend money on this car, if I spend time in the garage under this car, it keeps me from doomscrolling Ebay to look for the next thing... because my current thing is the next thing. And as far as I can see, it will stay that way for quite a while.

This video truly changed my perspective on having a dream car or modded car. 700whp daily sounds fun but seems like a pain, and have a modded out car means 9/10 times its parked with an issue. So to just have a “dream car” thats bone stock but hits all the right boxes seems fun. And to have a modded out rustbox may bring a lot of issues, its up to enjoying its time and personality that makes up for it.

Celica were always drawing my attention, a very handsome line up through the years. I've always had my eye on the gen 5. 2 years ago i decided to put away some money to buy my first car, looking around up until last year, i find a mint condition, 100% working gen 5 Celica. a day before i manage to get a ride to check it out, lock down happens. a year had gone past, lock down ended, and i was back in the hunt. i find the same exact car, waiting for me. i pull up on this old master miyage looking dude, and he puts down a blue tarp... and there are was, Celi, waiting for me in all her 90's glory. that moment when i check the interior, i say "yep, driving away on this" since then she gives me a huge smile that i cannot contain and give her as much love as i can, fixing some old diy jobs, changing fitment. i doubt I'll be done with her anytime soon

    In general, you're correct. However, sometimes, extreme luck happens. My dream car had always been a manual 98-01 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS Coupe in Aspen/Pure White. I didn't know until after I bought it that only 7,500 coupe manuals were even built over those 4 years, and there were only 5 of them in Aspen White in the SF Bay Area. And I managed to buy the one that was sold at a dealership only 10 miles from my house. Oh; but after I moved 50 miles away and it was sold to a guy that lived less than a mile from my new house, who then sold it to me.
    Now I'm restoring it to a WRX STI v5 Type R.

    I remember playing Codemasters' Touring Cars 2 as my very first video game when I was like 6 or 7 and one of the coolest cars in the game was the Volvo S40. Over the years I wanted many kind of cars 3rd gen Firebird, Z33, Z32, Lexus S190, S13, FG Falcon, P11 Primera, but eventually I wanted to get a 90s/00s at least midsize sedan or wagon, since those are my favourite type of cars in terms of looks. And many years later I'm here with an S40 2.0 and I'm really happy with this thing. One day I'd also like to get a second gen V70 to experience having a car with a 5 cylinder engine, but I never want to sell my S40, since according to the original buyer's paper it was sold in the december of 2002 just a street away from the house I've grown up in, when I was a little kindergartener. My friends used to bring up the Harry Potter phrase, like "the wand choses the wizard" and since I bought it at a completely different part of the country, not knowing about its origin I think it's perfectly fitting.

    I think one big thing with this is that nowadays people is obsessed with numbers, al RUclips channels feed that trend (not all of them, but most) and is not about how quick a car is, is about how it makes you feel when you drive it, same applies for motorbikes, customs are kind of slow, but really cool to ride.

    Hello from 2024! We had a 1998 Toyota Avalon and we only had to get rid of it in 2023, so we really loved the car. It wasn't exactly sporty or fun to drive, but it was dependable, especially with a daily commute of over 1.5 hours 1 way. I had to get a new vehicle and eventually found a 2006 TSX, which has my dream K24A2 engine. Now I daily it to work and it's fun to drive, but also has all the interior refinements the Avalon had. I'm experiencing what you went through, I have my dream engine, but I've grown a little bored of it and am looking for something that's even more sporty and fun, maybe for the weekends. So yeah, even if you get your dream car/engine/etc., you'll eventually get bored. I thinks that's just human nature for you.
