GTP Cool Wall: 1981-1989 Dodge Aries

[LM7325]

Many cars built in the 1980s are very cool and iconic. This car just reminds you of the other side of the coin.

 

[CSLACR]

The only person that said there are no cool cars from the 80s that I saw, was @The87Dodge, which was his opinion of another person's opinion.

 

[Famine]

And they said there was no cool 80's car.

Who did? Where?

@The87Dodge said this:

You think, because most average, non-car-enthusiast Americans probably think that "all 80's cars are junk", and "no one drives them anymore".

Which is false. I could show an 1980's car like a Testarossa or a Corvette to my friends who aren't exactly car people and they'd say it's cool, and people still drive them. We still like like the Lamborghini Countach after almost 42 years of it being in existance. Even some of us like the LP400 over the LP500, which i'm suprised to hear.

And is this considered junk to my friends?

They don't even know what terrible engine it has, they just know it's role in a Spielberg movie and those epic doors.

He isn't a 'they'. So who's the 'they" that say there are no cool 80s cars?

If what you mean by "they" is when I said "They have no idea what terrible engine it has..." then that would mean my friends, as I was continuing my post on how people still like the Countach and the DeLorean.

 

[AnthonyD1993]

By "they" he specifically was referring to people as a whole who said all 80's cars are pure garbage.

 

[LivingWithGames]

Honestly, who says that is an absolute pillock of a man. "80's cars garbage" That, my friend, is a myth. American cars mostly, that is sedans, sure. But sports cars, cool looking ones, europeans and also asian ones, now you'd have a problem with a lot of people.

I at least kinda agree for Russian cars, Lada's weren't the best option, but they at least have a bit of charm.

No, I mean exactly what I said:

It's not that complicated a conversation.

 

[MoLiEG]

I think it was the Dart.

It's correct, it was called Dart here.

 

[CSLACR]

By "they" he specifically was referring to people as a whole who said all 80's cars are pure garbage.

In this case, in context, "they" don't exist.

 

[Razor440]

Nor should they exist. You'd have to be from 3016 to think that 1980's cars are garbage.

Ooh! 1983 Toyota Sprinter Trueno, a la AE86! Not garbage!

Oh.

 

[Sage Ages]

Worth pointing out that a car can still be cool and complete garbage at the same time.

 

[Pupik]

Loops of (Gran) Fury!

Getting bored of you ignoring and evading the question.

 

[Razor440]

Getting bored of you ignoring and evading the question.

I'm not ignoring or evading it, I didn't even know I had to answer a question anymore.

 

[Famine]

I'm not ignoring or evading it

And yet you ignore and evade it again. It would be an error to do so again.

 

[Razor440]

That's because I don't even know what question it was in the first place. Now I have a idea what it was, and I apologize on my behalf.

If you mean the question...

He isn't a 'they'. So who's the 'they" that say there are no cool 80s cars?

Then...well he didn't say anybody in particular. He just said "they", and that's about it.

 

[Famine]

Then...well he didn't say anybody in particular. He just said "they", and that's about it.

Then that begs the question why you've been filling the last two pages with utter rubbish to argue against these people who don't exist.

And that isn't actually a question.

It's the question i'm asking myself right now.

...I feeling my IQ number is decreasing as I read more, not to be offensive to all of this.

I say, once the poll ends, just lock this to avoid more confusion mess or drama in the future. It's for the better.

It'll die out just as long as no one goes and throws up a "HEY ANYONE REMEMBER THIS THREAD" necropost.

Seeing how there's been one recently after two years, my bets are on a necropost in 2018.

 

[Murcie_LP640]

I believe that was the joke.

 

[Fastcarguy]

This is the most ridiculous cool wall thread I have ever experienced.

 

[The87Dodge]

This is the most ridiculous cool wall thread I have ever experienced.

Do you actually think it's that ridiculous, or are you just saying that since there is 450 posts. Because nothing really outrageous went on here (yet), and all it is is just a long, but relaxed discussion about the coolness of the Dodge Aries.

Fixed.

 

[The87Dodge]

Fixed.

I didn't say it was cool or uncool. When I said "Debating the coolness", I mean discussing what you like and dislike, and why you think it's cool or uncool.

 

[Grandea GTR]

Err, no.
