car buff
Vehicle passion person
A car buff is someone with enthusiastic knowledge about automobiles—their mechanics, history, design, or performance.
The term suggests more than casual interest; a car buff can identify models by sight, discuss engine specifications, or spend weekends at auto shows: My uncle's a real car buff—he's restored three classic Mustangs.
