Do you feel a kinship with people who drive the same make/model car as you? (sh.itjust.works)

I was thinking about Jeep drivers and the whole duck thing. But what about you Kia Sportage drivers? You got a club? Is there a Secret Brotherhood of Chevy Traxers?

Used to never care. Not one bit.

And then I treated myself to an E60 M5.

Day 2 - some random guy compliments it and starts a chat.

Random talks at the lights. In the parking lots.

Someone walked up to me in Belgium and asked if he can take a photo. Of a disgustingly dirty car that had been driven 1200 miles in the last 24 hours. I just shrugged it off and said sure, go ahead.

Point being - I am now aware of it being a thing. It's also a pleasant feeling, so now I try to do the same. Last one I complimented was an E34 M5. Guy made the appropriate smile of acknowledgment back.
