That... does not sound fun. That sounds like a bunch of shit that I'll either use once and never touch it, or it will break quickly and I won't be able to use it.
The fact that this person thinks this is what makes cars fun raises serious doubts about their understanding of cars.
That's Jason Torchinsky, and he's fantastic
He's got a very different definition of "fun" than I do.
I can't read the whole article due to a pay wall but Jason tends to favor the weird, unique, and novel things in the automotive world. These days he's usually writing for The Autopian or appearing in their YouTube videos. Highly recommended
Also to your point, yes there are different definitions of fun. Some people are really into power and acceleration but I tend to be more into light and flickable cars myself. Different perspectives are valuable
