A car community like no other

Cult of Cars

noto Cult of Cars is a virtual-first community of people, with in-person meetups and activities.

We're really a community that shares the enjoyment of driving and of owning our cars, and not by the brand of car we happen to choose. We believe in good company, and in creating a culture of being considerate and responsible.

Join us in our Telegram group, which is where we hang out mostly.

Welcome to Cult of Cars

What, another car community?

The reason we decided to start the Cult of Cars community, other than the fact that we love cars, is that it is our personal experience that many other car groups form around a specific car, or specific model of a car. And those are great. But one challenge is that when you change your ride, you inevitably get removed from that group.

Which, to us, is sad. Sure, you can continue to hang out and be friends with the folks you met in that group, but somehow, it's a bit different. It's a bit... excluded.

There is one other reason, and it might be a bit controversial. Car groups which are specific tend to attract a group of (often awesome) folks that are very similar. Car groups which are open and inclusive tend to attract such a diverse range of folks that it sometimes gets noisy and everything is a little random.

Cult of Cars was created to get both of that out of the way. If you're in Cult of Cars, you're here no matter what you drive, for as long as you want to be with us. And Cult of Cars is meant to be, and will always be, a group that is respectful, mature, and straightforward. It currently is, and we intend to keep it that way.

So, it may or may not be something you're looking for. If, and really only if, it sounds like your cup of tea, we really would love to know you and have you join us.

Cars, not brand.

We're about people who enjoy cars and driving, not about brands of cars.

All cars are beautiful, and they express who we are. Whether they're stock, modified, or body kitted. Whether they're daily cars, sports cars, or supercars.

When you change your car, you don't change your place in Cult of Cars.

A virtual-first community with in-person meetups.

No, we're not talking about having Zoom beer sessions.

We're talking about having the opportunity to connect both online, and in the real world.

Not all of us have the luxury of attending every meet up, or go on every drive. Or maybe we don't want to. Or maybe we're not in Singapore.

But, we can almost certainly keep in touch online.

Good company, responsible adults.

The car community sometimes gets a bad reputation. People see us as nuisances who like to make a racket with our engines. Or drive dangerously. Or elitist folks. And some unfortunately do that.

That's not Cult of Cars. We're about being responsible adults, and having a good time together in a considerate manner.

Whether, like us, you want create a community that has the reputation it actually deserves, or you simply want to be in a community believes in being considerate and responsible, we're here and we'd love to get to know you.

No gatekeeping.

We welcome members from all walks of life, at any age, and at any stage of their car journey.

Whether you're not driving yet (but you love cars), or whether you drive simple or the car of many people's dreams, you're welcome.

Because for us, it's not about the car, it's about enjoying it.

By the way, it's free.

And, you get access to an exclusive car concierge.

Where is noto
Cult of Cars?

We're primarily in Singapore, but we have friends who join us from all over the world as well.

Online, we gather in our Telegram group, and that's where all the conversations happen. Special interest groups are formed there as well.

In the real world, most of our gatherings are in Singapore, and sometimes at our neighbour, Malaysia. Especially Johor Bahru because it's really convenient to get there.

Online.

Connect with all of us through our Telegram or WhatsApp channels.

Meetups.

Join us for our in-person meetups like breakfasts, lunches or dinners, if you're in the vicinity.

Road.

We're sometimes literally on the road, on drives to Malaysia or beyond.

Events.

And sometimes we're a small part of a bigger event.

What to expect

Cult of Cars' Activities

We want to bring back the joy of car ownership and driving. Our events will be aimed at finding that joy, each and every drive.

Weekly Meets and Drives

This is the core activity that brings us together.

Enjoy a drive, for the simple pleasure of driving, around Singapore with your fellow car enthusiasts. Our weekend drives are carefully planned to ensure a blend of excitement, relaxation, and great conversation.

We do different types of drives, sometimes we visit interesting scenic spots, sometimes we go for long cruises, and sometimes windy roads.

We'll tell you the plan first, so you can decide if it's something you would enjoy. We'll usually end our drives with a casual meal. And, for new members, your meal is on us :)

Ad hoc Events

Every so often, we get an itch.

It might be a breakfast gathering in the morning, a nice photoshoot, a chit chat session at a carpark, watching fireworks together, makan session, or a short trip to Malaysia.

And it may be organised by the club, or by an individual or small group among us.

These are spontaneous, spur of the moment (or not) events that we all get to look forward to.

Deal Drop Fridays

Every Friday, our club partners offer exclusive deals just for you, as a member of Cult of Cars.

From auto maintenance, car grooming and accessories, to dining and entertainment, there's always something new to look forward to.

Track days

Every so often, we'll organize a track day for the track enthusiasts among us.

There's nothing new to this, it's just a chance for those of us trackies to take a trip to Sepang and let loose, safely.

As fellow members, we'll help to take care of each other. And, the club will help to take care your logistics, support, and safety.
