Zavir - divided by the vechicle age:

  • new - aggressive driving and unfounded feel of superiority
  • not new, but not old yet - so much electronics to break down, yay! :smile: …and aggressive driving of course
  • old - a beater badly welded after a crash caused by drifting, driven by an irresponsible youth
  • very old - owned by someone who has absolutely no knowledge about their car

A Pagani Huayra and a Chevrolet Cobalt meet at an intersection. The Cobalt driver rolls down the window an says: Hey you drive a Dimension too!

Assoluto: YOU WILL NEVER GET A CRINALE TO TEST ON FAIR CONDITIONS REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE (Because I modified the LUA to fit a 7 liter V12… I swear that’s the only modification)

Gryphon Gear: the problem Child who turned out to be a gifted athlete, but upon discovering this became a massive douchebag until they grew up and started getting serious, a.k.a the story of many young athletes and also somewhat the story of their main driver :joy:

Edit: added some of the other companies I have used but don’t have a company thread for.

Armada Motors: British racing on the cheap at its finest. Also not-so-great British build quality, British weirdness… and very un-British engineering… maybe they got influenced from across the Channel???

Phaedra: And you thought 'MURICA couldn’t get any more POWAAAAAAAAAAAA. This is your Venice Beach bodybuilder who juiced up on those illegal looking ‘supplements’.

Matteo Miglia: Issa nostalgia for Italianos! Customer base consists entirely of people who believed the Lancia Stratos was the pinnacle of motorsport history but can’t find let alone afford one and can’t be bothered to source a replica.

(I mean seriously this guy is allegedly selling an original for half a million quid so: http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C788348)

Sei: So Scandanavian, they make solidly Scandanavian cars that Scandanavians can’t buy let alone drive because taxes.

LVC drivers. live fast die young

Storm drivers are of two types: those who have the normal version of their car and want the 1000 horsepower GT-R version, and those who have the 1000 horsepower version of their car and want the normal one.

Usually the first because the numbers look good, and usually the second because they’ve got a glove-box full of speeding tickets, gas-station receipts, and Christmas cards from their local tire supplier and their mechanic.

DMV drivers:
-High school kids who just learned how to drive manual
-Cheap bastards who want something to beat on
(For sport models)-Hooligans who are one speeding ticket away from losing their license

DSD cars that appeal to the Bogan in you

OAM is for people who like big, fast murican cars that cant go round a corner at any speed
(unless its the Traveller because it’s a rebadged MBS Vixen Mk1)

EADC(MBS if you live in the 80’s) is for people who cant afford to buy Erin :stuck_out_tongue: but still want a sporty car.

And BdMW (if i bothered make any more of them) would be for people who cant afford anything…not even a lada…

AEA would be close to the general “American cars, big engines, no cornering” until somewhere around the 80s or 90s. In the 90’s AEA becomes more of the “cheap American piece of Sh*t” and that may still be the perceived view of the public.

RPG is the Saleen or Shelby to AEA, and is generally seen as “faster than stock, looks like a race car.” They are sometimes viewed as the “funny but not as good as he says he is” comedian that came from AEA… but they’re getting better.

Kelet - For people who just want plain and simple motoring.

YA - Very simple and tough cars from Finland, quite popular with shallow wallet buyers who need cheap new cars.

Horyuji - Very obscure and fairly reliable cars, popular with younger buyers.

Brivio - An Italian company that won’t let you down reliability wise, there is no typical Brivio driver due to the wide range of cars, the interesting choice of car.

Winchester - For the people who always wear smart business attire and insist on blasting across 3 lanes on the motorway while doing 120mph with a mobile phone in their hand.

Le Mans - The build it yourself sports car company, usually driven by young budding racing drivers or men in their 50’s trying to be youthful.

Quattrocci - Cars from this brand are usually driven by internet millionaires and lottery winners, the cars tuned by this company are found sat on businessmen driveways and the badges can be found on standard Brivio models owned by teenagers who insist stance is the best modification.

Petoskey - People in a lower income bracket as most Petoskey models tend to be on the cheaper side. (Born out of the Great Depression and all) In the 1960s Petoskey owners would often be seen watching drag races (in their rear view mirrors) In the late 1980s to mid-1990s Petoskey drivers tended to have a criminal stigma attached to them (Despite a number of Police cars made by the company)

Ventnor - The car of choice for the discerning, cultured, man about town! Except in the 1940s where Ventnor drivers were considered to be racketeers and Mafia hit men. (Just because many of them were is no reason to judge the rest of the drivers)

Meliora (modern era): Discount bmw/audi, so cheap douchebacks.

ADM: “Yeah… Do you have anything cheaper?” (although in modern era, recent models are more competitive)

Mastin: Low to mid tier drug dealers or American utes enthusiasts.

Sanda: when new: honest, hardworking and well educated people. When used: annoying teenagers with stupid and loud mods.

Calavera: 90s -> car enthusiasts, probably in their late 40s looking for something exotic.
Over 2000s -> Mostly douchebacks following a trend. Lots of cars destroyed on either fires or crashed on their first run.

LVC-hit-and-run driving

Harris-Albury: tough, reliable with cutting-edge engineering and plenty of grunt, if a bit thirsty (Albury), technically advanced, high-quality and classy (Harris).
