No, seriously.

And discuss!

Do you mean the film?

 No, cars in general.



 

 

Could you maybe rephrase a bit, you know, ask for more detail.



Do you think we love our cars more than people from other continents?

I love my car more than I love people form other continents. Or towns for that matter.



Thanks, Mistershine. Next time I'll rephrase my question.

Okay, here's a question to the US guys:
How comes US people know the construction year of a car by just looking at it (at least I see this in movies often)? Are you born with that gift?

 Europeans love cars, racing games sell better, ioi is pretty car obsessed. I noticed a trend and I'm curious.

 Are you talking about Ferris Bueller's Day Off? Because I think Cameron listened to his dad obsess over it.



 

 

I never saw Ferris Bueller's Day Off. But I noticed it in dozens of other movies ("he's driving a 1982 Pontiac Firebird" and something like that). Maybe I was just naïve thinking it's normal in US. I blame Dr. Kawashima. He makes me think my brain is young. Liar.

And yes, the Europeans are very obsessive with their cars. Even the women. I thought that's the same all over the world.
