Just buy the car you can afford and is sensible. Who gives a rats what car someone drives. Oh you take your family up to the blue mountains in your Lamborghini. Oh sounds comfortable.

Lambos and a lot of other 'exotic' cars are so low to the ground, they are uncomfortable to sit in.

I worked with a guy that had a McLaren and I asked if I could go for a ride just to see how fun it was. I still have lower back problems to this day going down that low. That’s actually a joke I did go for a ride in my one but I cant imagine doing that five times a day would fucking be not good for your lumbar.

Is there something wrong with men who drive hatchbacks?

a few concerns to unpack here

1. Does it look funny for a big
Man to step out of a little hatchback car? No presence? Sort of looks cheap. Clown car?

2. Does it send off a strong message they are economical people? Looking to pinch a bit from here and there

3. When they turn up to an event hotel etc and everyone gets out of their big cars and they park their tin can.. do people shake their head?

4. Is EV cars sort of replacing the hatchback to assume these issues if you drove them? People heckle and scoff if they see one?
It only matters to someone, who doesn't matter...

Listen here Blue Balls I’ve had 5 Corolla hatch twin cams , when I was younger and by far best cars I’ve ever owned.
1. 1986 flat back twin cam 86kw
2. 1986 flat back twin cam 100kw ( engine conversion)
3. 1988 flat back twin cam 150kw super charged
4. 1988 flat back twin cam turbo 180kw
5.1991 hatch back Gti 20valve turbo 220kw
Most fun and reliable cars ever.

Even the regular sports cars have a similar problem - the Subara/Toyota 86 are the same. My brother-in-law was given one by Toyota to use while his Hilux was being built. I sat in it and it felt like I was sitting on the floor with my legs straight. Getting out... that was another problem.

You spend goodness knows how much on those cars and they're not even comfortable. They can have their height raised like a normal sedan FFS... it would be easier to sit in, get out of, and more comfortable.

I've never understand why sports have some kind of "how low can you go" thing associated with their height.

Speed humps say hello.

I’ve driven McLaren 570s.. it was a noisy car..

basically to turn you almost drove past where your going and turn VERY late as it just so direct in the steering. People were basically hanging out of cars taking photos , at the lights everyone has to say something

different to driving a EV where people scoff and sneer at you
