Just because you and I cant afford new AMGs, Beemers, Audis, etc. doesn't mean the owners aren't capable of being enthusiasts and just drive it from A to B. Hell people regularly twin turbo Lamborghinis and Ferraris, As the wallet of a genuine car enthusiast gets bigger, the potential for mods does as well. Falcodore owners are not the only car enthusiasts in the world. |

Your definition of "car enthusiast" is quite narrow minded.

There is a bloke In town who made a bit of coin with his retirement...gets all nitty-gritty restoring cars...Rich blokes don't all just drink wine on yachts. Fact is, when you can earn the big coin, you can have a lot of fun with cars...best thing for a big corporate bloke to bust knuckles on twirl spanners after a soulless day in the office. Quote:

You dont have to do all the work on the car yourself or even modify a car at all to be an enthusiast. Modified Falcodore owners are a tiny, tiny, tiny slice of the car enthusiast pie. You can still be a huge car enthusiast but do none of the work yourself, or be a huge car enthusiast and keep it stock.

And honestly I would say the 4x4 scene in Australia is now bigger than Falcadore scene, but you wont see 4x4 guys driving down the road in a big group, they're off road having fun. |
