Today, I realized that I will never be able to buy the car I've wanted since middle school. The car? A greyish-silver Volvo, which is the make and color of car Kurt Cobain drove. The reason? I've been informed that it's also the make and color of the car that Edward Cullen drives in Twilight. FML

Twilight is BAD
It makes young girls believe males have emotions
A complete brainwasher of a film

Ugh, agreed. Twilight is possibly one of the fucking worst film-franchise well, this century. Which Volvo was it? I'm quite fond of Volvos, I was going to buy one next month. Fortunately they're only driven by old geezers and benders, so you're not really losing too much in the cool department.

Twilight really isn't that bad guys... yeah it's introduced a different side of vamps and wolves to our world, so, BIG DEAL. The books are meant for tweens and that's a majority of the fans. I'm an 18 year old male, yes I've read twilight, and yes I like it. The people who are like "Oh my fucking god twilight has risen the soul of hate within me and I will destroy the world so long as shiny vamps exist" need to calm to down, and stop trying to protect your fragile masculinity.
Lol yeah :D.

I know this is really old, but yes, they did film Twilight on location. Well, technically, they filmed in Seattle, not actually in the town of Forks. They did film the beach scenes at that beach in La Push though.

Well actually I just hate Twilight because it's poorly written (and I know at least one person wants to say "Let's see you do better" which I probably can) and because the characters are all self-obsessed twats with an unholy obsession for body glitter.

I don't see how OP can be upset, either way its stupid. She's only wanting the car because a famous guy had one. And is upset because a different famous guy had it in a movie. . . either way OP is picking or not picking a car because of someone OP has never even come in contact with. . . regardless of who these people are, OP YDI for being a follower and shallow.

I actually feel bad for Kristen Stewart and all the guff she gets for being a bad actress. If you've seen her in anything else, or read the books, she actually a talented girl, Bella is just a very flat, emotionless character, and Kristen portrayed that appropriately.

Don't get me wrong, I dislike twilight as much as the next person, but if you research the origin of vampires, Theres a Greek or roman (can't remember which it was) myth about Artemis (I think) that got revenge on a man for stealing her bow by giving him a sort of rash or skin disease that gave the appearance of glitter when he was in sunlight as it burned his skin. Now, I'm paraphrasing, because it's been a while, but that's the gist of the reason for glittering vampires

Wut? Twilight is made out to be the WORSTTHINGEVEROMGWUT. Honestly; it's not that bad. It's a decent film and a decent book.
And #7, vampires don't come from movies you twat. Vampire lore has existed far before Hollywood first took a crack at it.

The books were alright. The first movie was tolerable. The second movie I only sat through because my little sisters took me to see it was my birthday present and I couldn't walk out. Whatever redeeming qualities the book had, were lost on the movie.
To OP: If you want the car, then get it. Anyone who knows specifically what car he drove is one of the obsessive fans, and not a casual reader/watcher. Given the fact that you're that put off by being connected to Cullen, I would guess you'd rather avoid those obsessive fans anyways. I'm sure the standard person doesn't look at every silver Volvo and think "OHMIGODTWILIGHT!" and I can't remember the model actually being in the book anywhere. I believe it was always referred to as 'silver Volvo.'

you're right. it was never mentioned as anything but "the silver volvo." So really, there is no proof that cobain even drove the same one. Sure it was a silver volvo, but not the SAME silver volvo as cullen.

LMAO. Dude, get the car you want. Twidims are stupid retards. If you wanted that car forever, then get it. Or get it in another color. And don't try to act better than twilight fans. You want the same car as Kurt Cobain. It might not be as obsessive as those fanged wanna-bes but you are doing it for similar reasons.

Nevertheless #16 movies tend to define how things turn out.
Like fx James Bond; i hate Daniel Craig's "James Bond" in fact i don't think he has anything to do with the character, nevertheless people who've actually read the James Bond books say that he is much more accurate than the old actors.
Same is true with pretty much everything, movies have the liberty of shaping and reshaping lore to fit it's purposes.
I hate Twilight though because it's like the classic superman dilemma, She's just taken away all the weaknesses of the character and kept all the strengths.
Ohh and a dare one little Twilight moron of a Fan girl reply to my post that "Sunlight is still a weakness for Twilight vampires"
Sparkling does NOT impair a person the least, it's just adding to the effect of shock and awe when he rips your throat out and suckles up your bone marrow!

Have you seen mylifeistwilight.com? Here's a post:
Every day on my way to work there is an Edward Cullen Volvo parked the local Dunkin' Donuts. If it's not there for some reason my good mood for the day is shot. If it is there (which it normally is) I scream, "EDWARDDDDDD!", get all giddy, and daydream while I turn up my New Moon soundtrack. MLIT
I pity the people who post on that website and whoever owns this car.

I so agree with 16 seriously.People are like yeah that is so not real.Yes of course it's not believable it's vampires.and don't say vampires aren't like that. Different authors differet take.Anne Rice vampires are diff from L.A. Banks vamps and diff from Bram Stoker so on and so forth.Obviously more people like it than hate it.No I'm not a twihard at all.I just don't think they are that bad.

Don't forget this:
When Harry Potter came out, they decided to make it good. To be loyal to the book and be a decent, well-written film. In Twilight, however, I saw, like shit being thrown by Shaqeil O'Neil on a football field, that it was just some crap made to make money. First, the story is overrated. IT'S NOT THE BEST BOOK EVER. And second, Rarely, a movie (and this is not the case) is going to be good by ADDING stuff that wasn't in the original book in the first place. So there's another point less for that horrible piece of crap. If you, who are reading this, haven't seen any of the movies, don't torment yourself with that waste of time. You'd rather superglue your asshole shut than watching that shit. IT'S SO BADLY WRITTER I ACTUALLY FELL ASLEEP! 3 TIMES!

Exactly. I've read the first book a couple of times, but not enough to remember such a tiny detail, in fact, I probably wouldn't have even remebered that that was the car featured in the book until the OP mentioned it. to the OP, grow a pair, and don't base decisions because of a fictional character. Again, a reasonable person isn't going to look at your car and go OMG TWILIGHT!!!!

2. You deserve it for caring enough about what a fictional vampire/fans of said fictional vampire like to make you not want it.
Seriously, decide what fucking car you want based on the car, not some random superficial reason amounting to how cool it makes you look.
