[QUOTE="Snarf Zagyg, post: 8200617, member: 7023840"] Oh, there are . There certainly are care enthusiast forums! But here's the thing, and I can speak from experience. You will get incredibly disparate opinions as to what matters. From car enthusiasts. They can, and will, agree on certain things- like the horsepower of the vehicle. But the sheer number of opinions you can get as to what is the proper vehicle if you want to do "X" will be staggering. The factors that people use to determine what matters is incredibly idiosyncratic. For that matter, reasonable people can disagree about very specific things; if you want a really fun time, try going to a car enthusiast forum and having a discussion about German, Japanese, and American reliability, repair costs, and engineering in general across brands. Everything from styling to function will vary depending on the people you talk to and their preferences. There is no single solution, even for people incredibly knowledgeable about the topic. (If you want to see something fun on a regular basis, there is a weekly column on a website called Jalopnik where the writers offer their suggestions for a used vehicle for someone who writes in ... and the solutions cannot be more different.)
