Lol, you are full of shit. I’ve never seen otherwise stoic European men light up with smiles and point like kids, than when an old 70s C3 Corvette let its v8 sing and went ripping through one of the streets in an Eastern European capital.
That's cause it's an old timer. This would even make me smile. However if it's a new car it's just obnoxious imo, and my family, friends and colleagues seem to agree
Some people like electric cars, some people like rice burners, some like euro engineering while others want a good old fashioned American V8. It’s all relative.
Eastern Europe? Maybe. I can definitely see some Bulgarians doing that, but that's a bit of a stretch.
Wasn’t Bulgaria, but cool cars and trucks are one of the universal things that make most men instant bros even when they are from different cultural and ethnic backgrounds.
The thing is this wasn't "most men" or even "some men". It was a regular line for a mountain coaster. Anything from kids to their moms and dads and older folk up to like their 50s and all fucking cheered. I've never see something like this here. Here there's always at least one old cranky dude that shits on such people very vocally and the kids cover. 5 teenagers gawking and giggling or football fan types yelling isn't the same as watching a crowed of all ages go WOOOW! Like I'm already fed up with the heat and shitty long line on the fucking asphalt of all things and these regular ass midwestern families still find it in em to admire the rich asshole being a nuisance.
