I am a devout lover of the Chevrolet Corvette and have been since I was little. I also, as Misho said, try not to let that cloud my oppinion on things.

the two cars that i feel the most 'fanboy' towards is the VW R32 or any VW for that matter, and the Corvette mostly the C5

My goal is to be as open-minded as possible (at least concerning sports cars). Naturally, I have my favorite styles of car.

I don't consider myself to be a brand fanboy at all. For example, I like the Elise, and I like Lotus. However, if Chevrolet makes a better lighweight than the Elise, then I'm all in favour of it. Brand fanboys are the ignorant ones who never seem to admit defeat.

Fanboys are people who blatantly and blindly worship a certain marque or car (or even a nationality of a car). They will endlessly promote this [car, marque, etc] at any opportunity, and they will deny any of its flaws to the bitter end.

Pretty much all Italian cars for me...I don't know why.
Is it the passion, the looks, the feeling? Nah, they're just all so
