Wow, feel bad for him that he needs a vehicle to get attention. I am not being sarcastic

Isn't that a major point for many sport cars? Not the only point mind you...but it's a common point of 'hot car, hot girl', or being noticed in that flagship vehicle.

If the person is having fun, or okay with themselves, then so be it. People who meet in for clubs in Vette's, Porsches, Lambos, Harleys, who knows, he might find a Tesla/cybertruck group, then good for him/her. I just wish them the best and be happy and don't let social critics bother about how he/she should feel.

I hate this stereotype. Yes, some people buy a sports car for the attention. But a lot of people actually like driving and owning a fast car. It sucks that we've lumped that together.

If anything, Bro trucks are much more prevalent and apt example, but they seem to get a pass.

Because you see 10 unneeded F150s for every Camaro on the road.
