Musicians and dancers seem to do well.

Hobbies that involve physical activity are certainly higher SMV than collecting stamps or playing video games. Just reading car magazines and knowing all the details no one asked for, I would not really include in high SMV hobbies.

ya do something you're passionate about. The same goes for your job and every other aspect of your life. Do what you want to do, don't try and fit anyone else's mold of what you should be doing (as long as it's not unhealthy)

Play the bongos like Matthew McConaughey.

I do boxing and music production and it seems to attract attention from people

I guess any hobby will increase SMV if you really enjoy it. Not because people will see that what you do is awesome but because you are going forward with yourself, fulfilling your passion, learning new things and having fun. If you like woodwork do it, if you like drawing or painting just do it, if you are passionate about birds get yourself a set of binoculars and creep on some birds. Whatever floats your boat.

I liked cars as far as I can remember. I buy cars, fix cars, mod cars but people don't really give a shit. I always thought people would look up to it, all the work you put in your car, it looks neat and drives great but people don't really appreciate it for various reasons. I always thought it's a malny hobby like gun shooting and hunting, man and his machine.

Well, guess not. I occasionally hear:"This guy just wants to show off lol" "who you wanna impress?" from random people, I guess that's how most of them think... friends and family ask me why don't I buy a nice TV or furniture or some other useless invention instead of parts and tools. "why put so much money in this POS?" they say "sell it and buy a normal car like most people!" they say.

Apart from that, occasional thumbs up on the street. I see only people who have the same passion and kids seem to be genuinely interested.

It's a good way to make friends with people that have the same hobby. Fellow petrolheads come up to you, ask questions, show you their rides etc... People don't have to understand, do something for yourself if it puts a smile on your face. And stop giving a fuck if your hobby is well perceived. Go stalk some birds or some shit.

If you are passionate about those hobbies and you are able to transmit that passion when you're talking to someone about that then it increases your SMV. Sports, Dangerous or creative activities seem to be the best.
