I see this same discussion in relation to guitars of various brands, and it's horseshit, through and through.
Can't be that much horseshit if millions of people across the globe all buy into that very subjective opinion. Just because you don't see personality in cars doesn't mean other people can't either.
Besides, it's a turn of phrase more than anything. Talk about being pedantic.
Nah, millions of people believe in deities, too.
Personality in an inanimate object or mechanical contrivance is projection from the owner, in my opinion. Certainly not inherent.

Yet more pedantic-ness.
I'm razzin' you. Lighten up, Francis.
... and the word you're looking for is pedantry.
