    Which car maker attracts the worst fans?

    This is just to say which car makers you guys think attract the worst fans, either because they're arrogant or blinded by passion or anything. Try not to say anything too inflammatory (like that'll happen) but I'm sure we can all learn something.

    I'm only offering the choices of car makes that are available in Australia because A) I wanna see what the results are and I live in Australia so theyre more relevant to me B) There are too many car makers otherwise C) this is the Aussie forums

    I guess I'm first so Ferrari get my vote, simply because I reckon a lot of them get a 'holier than thou' approach to cars that gets pretty annoying after a while. I don't mind Ferrari's just a lot of Ferrari fans

    Noooooooooo....mate didnt you know we only got electricty here in the last 30 years lol

    Jokes and stirings aside i used to work at the used section of rolfe classic BMW as a detailer/yardie and the buyers they attract well....ive never had so many people look down on me....and the dealer princabel wasnt the happiest chappie either....

    Ferarri fans are annoying for the a fore metioned reasons....also a majority will never be able to afford one....

    But on that note fanboys are always annoying...its a tought one but ill probly go holden (you can thank goodo and that bloke imet at the pub for that)

    i'll agree with you on that one. without trying to generalize though, ive come across my fair share of arrogant holden fans, who despite "claiming" a broad view of things, will only respect one side of the story...case in point, one of my teachers at school. says the same thing, he respects both ford and holden, BUT at the current time, he believes holden have a far better car. you'd think, alright, maybe he see's something others dont, but EVERYONE ELSE who rates both the BA and VY/VZ, usually have them dead even, or when they split hairs say the VY/VZ can be better for sporty driving, whilst the BA can be better as a "drivers" car, or something easy to live with

    Hey I'm guilty of the same thing I 'have a broad view' but I still like Holden better. Simply put I grew up with them and I know enough about them to like the company. But I've met some die hard Ford fans who make me like the company less.

    Yeah I figured that there wouldn't really be any Volvo fans on the forums so I didnt put em on the poll

    PS I only included car makers which people are feircely loyal to, so no Toyota, Daewoo, Hyundai, Maserati, Rolls, or any other car makers

    Yeah I don't think that Toyota inspires the same passion than when....
    well i can't really think when Toyota last inspired passion, but maybe when the new Supra comes around...

    Yeah its been while since Toyota have been putting out good cars, pity that good cars don't necessarily mean the best selling. Toyota should stop making so much money so they can reassess their products....

    Yeah I know that was a dumb comment

    well not exactly, the concept worked with Ford after the AU failed to excite, now we got the BA

    their trump card though is theyve got a car for any possible, conceivable market globally. when the adventra and territory were announced, toyota instantly knew the Highlander in the US could easily be brought over here in RHD form and badged Kluger, it had been on sale since like 2000 which is why its interior, other than the usual Toyota problems, doesnt stack up against the territory and adventra
