An enthusiast is rationally, logically and emotionally tied to their vehicle.
or irrationally tied

An enthusiast buys a car for the visceral driving experience it may provide, not for the looks and attention it attracts.

Car enthusiasts like cars for the experience and not the attention it attracts
Porsches are designed for performance and not drawing attention
