Why is it..., stupid Celica owners... Options

Why is it that the spectrum of Celica owners is so extreme?

On one hand you have the super-extreme-enthusiasts like us, who absolutely love our cars and know everything about them and all that, and realize how rare and special they are.

On the other hand it seems everyone else who owns a Celica has zero appreciation for their car. I see lots of Celicas around the town I live in and would love to leave some 6gc.net business cars on them or something but most of them have just been treated so badly that they are just junk. One guy drives a nice black one with 7th gen rims but doesn't speak a bit of english and if you look inside the car it's like there was a dogfight or something in it. Another is the same color as mine and wingless (looks so hot) but when you get up close it's all keyed and scratched up, looks like it's been in a lot of fender benders and not repaired, etc etc. Before I bought my Celi I looked at numerous ones that had just been absolutely trashed-i'm talkin bullet holes, weird damage, zero maintenence (one didn't have much if any oil in the car)

It just bugs me because Celi's are already rare and decreasing in numbers fast. I've seen one other really nice one in town. Anyone else notice this or is it just me?

It's kind of a snowballing effect, if they're not really enthusiasts in the first place and they dent up the car or scratch it they'll care less and less about treating it properly and won't bother fixing it up or maintaining it well, leading to more problems. I've seen a 20 something receptionist who's spoiler is peeling paint worse than a snake shedding skin, yet remains unfixed... Oh well. It happens. I like the rarity of our cars anyway. Also, to the wanker who stuck a lollipop under my spoiler and think I wouldn't notice... I did!

I do have to admit my clearcoat is peeling on my spoiler and roof, but I'm going to wait to fix it when i can paint the whole car and do some other body work.

Maybe they dont have the money to fix the damages?
Maybe the Celica isnt number one on their priority list?
When u grow up, you'll understand.

wow thanks for assuming I'm a kid (which I'm not) I guess I just hate seeing rare cars like these (and other rarities i've owned) get treated so badly

I understand not having the car as a first priority and things like that, but some people just absolutely trash cars period.
