You don't just floor it in the hopes of going up.
To be fair, I'm far off in terms of off-road knowledge. All I know is if I would've been that guy, I would've at least tried to go up slow.
Unless of course the tire wouldn't do its job, in which case you can't do much about it than "fixing" the tire.
he was driving uphill on sand, you want deflated for grip
Because the rubber would dig more into the sand, rather than slide off the top?
A toddler would try more to have better panel gaps
you mean this one?

wtf is this my Ranger could handle this hill how do you let this footage see the light of day

L for this truck
What do y'all think about this car?
Someone said that the EMP claw in Fast and Furious which drains the car's electronics and eventually deactivate the car upon latching on a car body or panel is unrealistic. Is it true?
honestly thought it was a little gaudy on release but i've grown to like the 812 Competizione
still prefer the F12tdf though
Yes, increased contact area and it often molds in the crevices of rough terrain
Exception being snow, where very thin tyres are dominant
I would never get it in this color scheme but the car itself is great
Viola Hong Kong is crazy on that car
Idk what color that is but I just go buy the basic blue, green, yellow, purple lol
If it's a track car I would never see the point of getting like fancy $90,000 paint on it
It'll get scrated and dinged
Just saw this
Cool
This purple 
You can daily it. Or keep it in your garage but it would be stupid if you ask me
Nice M2 Competition
That yellow in the middle on both that car above and the black one needs to go
Especially the one above
Totally agree. It ruins the car
It's an option you can have from Ferrari
The person with the lowest mile supercar loses in heaven
Idk why people don't drive their cars
The pristine examples are in museums already
Sliding into the @semashow like…
This Dakar 911 is coming to the show fresh from the dessert wearing a full body of DYNOmight, our 10 mil, extra durable paint protection film. This film allows @glaswerksdmv to properly enjoy their Dakar the way Porsche intended without worrying about damaging the paint. Be sure to come by our booth (52205) in t...

embed fail
this is how the Dakar should be driven
depends, if it's a track-only car
a simple film will do
but any other environment, especially with snow, sand, dust, gravel
you'd need a very expensive protective coating and be very selective with when or where to drive
useless car in my book
it would crumble under heavy terrain
insead of flat sand surfaces
any enduro bike or pajero will be more useful
the car's also filled with luxury tech
there's a reason why rallying cars are extremely bareboned
toys that also pose as investments
Cars rare enough to appreciate will do so regardless of whether or not you drive it a few times a year or a few times a week.
People who collect them not to drive them are the losers who don't enjoy their stuff I feel
If you buy a supercar and don't even put like 1000-1500 miles a year on it, why own it
Only excuse is if you have like 30 cars
It could be difficult to drive them all that much
I get that, but not driving significantly reduces the risk of it crashing on a stretch of road to zero as well
They wan their toys to kept in tip-top shape for RM Sotheby's, Bonhams or Barret Jacksons
At the same time they might also like the look of cars just sitting there
Im against that though
Tbf I would be afraid to drive a $20,000,000 irreplaceable classic car, I'm not insane. But if I have money like that I could probably close off a local road and hire people to watch the area
Never have another random car near it during the drive
Oh yeah, they could also not know how to/not want to drive it about even within ideal conditions
Because im sure those who do have that much money lying about ccan, but dont
Jay leno has a good philosophy on it. If he has a very rare expensive basically irreplaceable vehicle he takes out, he drives it without a destination to be at and rarely parks it
He'll never take his Mclaren f1 to some appointment he is late to etc
I'll have to admit i havnt seen his full collection but from what i've seen they mostly fit that category as expensive irrrepacbles
That also comes to Jay Leno being a good guy and following his own philosophy
Its a shame that many other people with similar sort of garage dont think a similar way
Why can’t I post pics of vids?
need to be level 5
Bugatti Atlantic 2015. Need this car in GTA VI
ill get hate by saying this but it looks terrible imo.
i like it
yeah everybody thats looking at it in the server rn can only "like it"
as if we can afford one 
it's like 5k to rent for a day
only 5k.
not an impossible amount for someone who really wants to and has a decent job
i personally would not be paying that much to rent a car like this. would spend it on sm else.
i wouldnt have the balls to be driving that here hell no
What is 5k a day to rent?
That isn't a real car they aren't going to let strangers rent it for some ridiculous amount unless you are talking about another car
I Forgot to mention it was just à concept lol
I have no idea what is he talking about
Same
One: no company would ever let you rent concepts and non production cars just to drive on the street for any amount.
Two: It would be a hell of a lot more than $5000
even if they did i could never have the balls to be driving that on the road. fuck no.
5k is wayy too cheap even for rent for a car like that. i guess u needa make more sense next time.
I've rented track cars before, I would never rent a luxury car that is so useless
I don't hate renting but it's something I found useless cuz if you're a car guy you'll be attached to the car and leaving the key should be heartbreaking
its like spending 5k on steak.
i could never.
If I really am desperate I would rent only 1 car and only one. A Ferrari 812 Superfast
No renting allows you to actually get time in the car without having to commit hundreds of thousands of dollars
It's great but not something you should soend every dime on of course
if i have 5k to spend on a car for one day. i guess im rich so id just buy the car
I have a relative who sometimes rent Audi RSs and shit and I'm low-key judging him cuz I find it useless
me whos rs5 is in a workshop rn.
$5,000 a day would get you a Lamborghini aventador svj, or like a Ferrari f12 tdf
f12
1.2$? i can afford that
How much would be 812? 7k?
$5000 a day makes sense for a more than a million dollar car
An 812 is half the price of an f12tdf
id spend that much on my audi. just me tho
Logic. Then 2-2.5k
Okay. I ask but I would never, 3-4k spent for less than 24h of pleasure is crazy
frrrrr
Say you are making $30 an hour. $3000 would be way too much but to a guy making $750 an hour it's the same as you soending a few hundred bucks on a special tourist attraction
Renting a car as high up as an 812 isn't a normal activity
The security deposit alone is $10,000
yep only someone "above average or rich" would do that
So you have to have that down plus the days pay
Istg people are legit letting their cars as a security deposit to rentals just for a day in a RS6 
renting a rs6 for a day is crazy
The rs6 is great but I wouldn't rent such a normal car
even for a MTM rs6
Track renting seems less stupid imo
I'm probably going to do a gt4rs this time around
It's ironically also cheaper lol
Less time but it's more meat
You can push it
And you endanger way less people
From what I’ve heard it’s LOUD. so prepare yourself
If I owned a supercar I wouldn't be driving it with people around me anyways
Even louder than the 911 GT3s
A Gintani SVJ 
The gt3 rs has the same engine the sound is beautiful I would be very happy to hear it again
Best 6 cylinder sound on this entire planet
That flat 6 sounds crazy at almost 9k rpms
Once you get it to around 9 the car screams
It was mesmerizing
The downshifts are probably my top 5 favorite
You hear everything because it has zero sound deadening
Have you ever heard a 599XX downshifting? Shits almost change you into Beethoven
The 599xx evo is actually my objective number 1
Under best downshifts in a car ever
It can't be topped
Mine as well bro. But those cars are all owned
The DOWNFORCE
The new gt3 rs is goofy but the car is like having godmode, you can take tight ass turns going 125
And yes, there is a sharkfin
Shit is artistic af even with a fat ass wing
Wdym harder ton find?
I think he meant more rare
599XX EVO and FXX both are owned and they can't be rent
I mean who’s smart enough to make multi million dollar racecars up for rent /s
fxx's are a lot more sought after than 599xx and 599xxevos
So finding an opportunity to drive or purchase one is going to be a lot slimmer
real
992s are not my favourite but theyre goated
Yeah, i feel the same
The original Atlantic at least is historic and is a work of art, this version didnt look elegant-i think it looks forced
why does the rear specifically have the turbofan?
if you're picking, it should be the front
unless the 911 is rear-break dependent???
Like a front engine Chiron kinda. But it does work for me
speaking of turbofans
This video is about one of the most iconic Audi race car: the 90 Quattro IMSA GTO.
Built for the 1989 IMSA GTO series the car is powered by a 2.2-liter 5-cylinder turbo engine able to produce 720hp and 720 Nm of torque. Listen to that glorious sound!!
#Audi90IMSA #Audi90QuattroIMSAGTO #Audi90GTO
-------------------------------------------------...
The Lancia Delta S4 is one of the most legendary cars of all time. We had the opportunity to watch this beast in action few years ago. Here you have the onboard camera of Monte Erice Hillclimb (Sicily), Driver Lucio Peruggini.
If you like the video thumbs up and share it ;)
What a wonderful noise that twincharged machine makes
The Delta S4 was a group B rally class which races in the WRC in 1985 and 1986. It is moved by a 1.8 liter 4 cylinders engine (supercharged and turbocharged) which is able to produce 480 bhp at 8400 rpm and a max torque of 490 Nm at 5000 rpm.

very unique
sounds rabid
I'm fine of screaming naturally aspired high revving engines but the 90 GTO's turbo whistles are noice
Kinda like its engineering philosophy

the only v8 I want
After many years of absence the legendary Group C cars have come back to Monza Circuit for the 2015 Coppa Intereuropa historic weekend. Something I didn't expect to do was to place my GoPro inside one of these holy cars: the 1991 Jaguar XJR-14 of the MECAuto Racing team and driven by Christophe D'Ansembourg.
The on board video covers almost all ...
I saw a Lancia not too long ago it was awesome
Probably, but surely manthey (who created the aero kit) know more about its function than you and me
i've went to Manthey Racing's website and it claims it improves downforce
ive also read a Speedhunters article and said that with the aero covers, they can reduce the wing angle as well, so less drag with equal/larger amounts of downforce
Carbon aero discs supplement rear downforce and reduce drag for a higher top speed.
(link to claim)
https://www.speedhunters.com/2020/08/more-performance-all-of-the-time-manthey-racings-gt3-rs-mr/#:~:text=fitted to the-,MR,-wheels and they
I’m with you on that and even Manthey-Racing would agree to a certain extent. Before we begin, I’ll let you into a little secret. This car is not really about being faster, it’s about being able to access that speed more confidently, more of the time, by a wider spread of drivers. As soon as you …
plus looks really good imo
im not a huge fan of them to be honest, but i do like their looks sometimes
which 50s car has the most chrome, most plane designs, tallest fins, most crazy?
Cadillac Eldorado
Why buy an Alphard if we can buy this?
https://www.carousell.ph/p/mercedes-benz-v220d-long-auto-1249808985/?t-id=-RWyJfZRbL_1699948760699&t-referrer_browse_type=search_results&t-referrer_filter_category=2151&t-referrer_page_type=search&t-referrer_request_id=f7HnhycmvwpHrm1W&t-referrer_search_query_source=direct_search&t-referrer_sort_by=popular&t-tap_index=19
These usually suck though
Maybe you want Toyota reliabilty, if that is applicable to the Alphard
terrible quality pictures pulled from craigslist 
How about Mercedes reliability?
It is a Mercedes after all
if ya want mercedes reliability you might wanna go waaaay back when they still had halogen headlights
New Renault Twingo leaked. Need this in GTA Online
no
No
No
Burn all golfs minus mk1s and mk2s
Mk4 r32 rules
why tf is this thing $50,000
I need to know
the affordable fun cars are stupidly expensive nowadays
$49,000 for a civic type r
$40,000 for a Corolla gr hatch
like bruh
Bcs its a new sports car
I ve never seen a new sports car for a not overly marked up price
Nowadays
a golf isn't a sports car
it's a hatchback with a badge and a little more power
$50k is ridiculous
It's also not worth 50k
I'd be hard pressed to find one going for under that after fees and other bs
some of them msrp for $48k
That photo isn't a normal golf
accounting for different times I wonder if these cars were just as expensive as they are now back then
like the Supra wasn't a cheap car when it was new
it was never affordable
or economy
Started at like 70k+ in today money
basically
so adjusting for that I wonder if the older top trim golfs were just as expensive
Also even the golf r costs 45k not 50k
$45k is 50k in the car world unless they are having extreme difficulty selling them
if a sticker says $45k it isn't going out the door under 52k
These are typically pre markup
But here the website prices match with the stand prices mostly
with markups the car could be $60k
but that is just robbery
beyond the scope
i'm referring to pre robbery times
I heard they are marking up the 400z to $140k
Murica
(The cars msrp is $60k)
Murica
the 400z nismo going for that much I hope is a myth, nobody is that fucking stupid to purchase one at that price I hopefully assume
like those hellcats going for $300,000 lmao
i'd buy a used Lamborghini
fuck that
Oh yeah that Demon 170 going for like 380k or whatever
Chrysler needs to do what GM is doing fr
imagine paying $400,000 for a car that does nothing but straight line. You might as well build a drag car from scratch
It retails for like 100
You could build a drag car that will smoke the 170 for $100,000. With $400,000 you could make something go 300mph in the time is takes to crack a skull
it won't be as reliable
but that markup is a bigger middle finger to me than an engine exploding
Doesn't come with a warranty either
I bet you the 170 doesn't either. The second it goes off of suburban asphalt it expires
"you used the drag car to drag race"
What is it???
no warrenty for you
My mom likes the kia k5 but its not available here
Someone ship us one
She ll pay 35k

Dodge of all companies are the ones I'd expect to not void the warranty for that but
You're still probably right
So I looked it up, looks like they don't void it he warranty if you drag race it, at least not consistently
Ig they're confident enough that their purpose-built drag car won't shit itself at the drag strip
Idk if that treatment is exclusive to the demon(s)
I feel like they don't hold the scatpack to the same standard lol
Yeah
I am curious about their Spicier hellcats like the red-eye and jailbreak tho
Doesn't mean they're all good quality
Most of car owners wants their shit to look fast or cool nut don't want to spend too much. That's why aliexpress sells more
Sell more or have more available to choose from?
They didn't include the Mitsubishi Pajero.

Honestly they did a good job with the front bumper
Shame you can't hide the window frames and doors of the supra

It is with great pleasure that I share this video about a 1997 Lotus Elise GT1 with you and which I recorded last weekend during the 2023 Dix Mille Tours by Peter Auto at Circuit Paul Ricard.

Ooo
The new Saleen 302 White Label
I'm not a huge fan of it right this second but it'll probably grow on me
Though fir right now I like the look of the RTR front end the most
I think Saleen just made it look better on top of putting 510hp from the 5.0
God, I wish we got a successor to the S7. 
I don't think they got the money or if they even want to do this
Tell them that if they can build a car that can outpace the Garage 56 Camaro, they should build it.
Bigger engine, similar shape to the S7.
Outruns LMH.
I mean at least we got Hennessey
Excluding the S7 LM, I presume?
Yes.
Since that's like the M3 Evo II. It's still an E30 - only retouched.
You're totally right there
GTE
hyperclass are completely different class
it finished 39nth overall
which is still a feat for a stock car
Guess the car
I can't tell if I'm hearing a raspy V6 or an extra raspy V12.
Certainly sounds British though.
Raspy V12 and bri'ish indeed
Is just the car British, or the car and the engine
I'm probably really off but I'll guess a TVR
Yeah you're off
Idk what else is a British sourced v12 other than I guess Jaguar and Aston
It's Aston
Most British cars use other countries powertrains
Well now Aston use AMG V8s now sadly
Are their v12's amg as well? or do they still make those from scratch
I don't really look into modern aston much
I would like a 2013 vantage s I like that gen
Nah I think their V12s are still theirs but only the DBS is using it, even DB12 is only available with a V8
Amazing car, my favorite Vantage variant is the 2018 V600
How is the db12 not a v12, emissions really need to screw off for soke manufacturers
Like if a manufacturer makes 10,000,000 cars like Toyota emissions compliance to the highest standards makes sense.
But aston makes like what my guess is not even 10,000 a year
Sounds stupid right? I was blown as well once I heard this
Idk why Ferrari keeps their NA V12 but Aston doesn't, and it's not like hybridization is not a thing
Lambo uses hybridization
Do you want me to unveil the car?
It's been a couple of years since I've driven a Aston Martin DB9 and actually it was here in Southern California. It was great drive and I even took that car for a spin around Willow Springs to explore its dynamics at high speed. Wonderful car.
This one is the latest, the 2016 Aston Martin DB9 GT, and we've driven it from LA to out here in Palm...
Probably my top 1 Aston Martin of all time
Yeah you need atleast level 5, but if u want u can dm them to me and i ll send them here with your credit

How we feeling today? 
All of the above
Idk im feeling pretty ok

Only because the sound is so out of this world
Easily one of the best sounding American cars ever
A chassis actually built for IRS on top of being tuned for the track makes for a good combo
Mustangs did get IRS before the S550 but there was hella wheel hop because the chassis wasn't designed with it in mind
It could actually put all its power to the ground this time
I'm thinking, if there's a self-aware, AI driven car with no manual driving option like no steering wheel, no pedals, etc, would anyone ride as passenger?
I wouldn't
At least not without a lot of reassurance that it works and it won't get me killed
GRID Legends 💪
Why the hell racing cars be having such good ass graphics than COD Games

mk4 r32?
mk5 gti?
mk7 r?
golfs are great and fun, just the last few years they've been costly
Theyre no exceptions, r32 not bad but still burn it
try a bit less saturation and more warmth
other than that absolutely amazing evo's
No colour editing
yummy
i take it you hate modern european cars?
*designs
Nope
Love the new bimmers, some of the mercs and a couple audis
I7 is horrendous
hahaha true
When i say new bimmers i meant the M variants, the real drivers cars
they do?
god the current 7 Series is ugly
its too bad their interiors are amazing
i dunno how you can defend the current M cars on looks
Thats horrenfous
how are you gonna like big sniffa pig bmw ///M💪 car but not like elegance and class
this one also got a big grille
The genesis suv's are pretty cool
two different types of cars i suppose, the Genesis G80 with the BMW G80
g80 is a model name, g80 for bmw is a generation tag
only one is called a g80
This thing is fricken huge
Bentley knockoff
the genesis looks nothing like a Bentley ngl
You got eye problems then💀
no im wrong, Genesis does not compete with Bentley
Also similar styling to the shitty luxury mercs everyones got now
The g80 and g90 aren't ever going to target people buying Bentley's and RR's it is more for people buying Lexus's S class's and Audi a8's
the Mercs are copying the Koreans on styling, im telling you
do all cars look the same to you or something?
In what world does this look similar to a Genesis
look nothing alike
the interior may but i haven't seen the Genesis interior
so i'll look at it now
i can understand that?
but yeah, not really
its unique enough from each other
and some parts like the greenhouse/cabin are going to look quite similar
Lower grille flared at the edges, skinny in centre
This is like saying a c8 corvette looks like a ferrari
which it kinda does
Be closer to a lamborghini
does it not
no
what i dont get was people comparing the Z4 with the A90 Supra on looks
corvette design language is pretty prominent on the c8, people only think it looks like a Ferrari because mid engine corvettes seem new to them
because they are the same dimensions
they may not look the same
Its just wrong for a corvette
but they are the same exact size
Mid engine no
how? They always wanted the car to be mid engine
it was their goal for a while now
There have been many concepts, prototypes, and even full running models for homologation purposes
mid engine corvettes have existed, they have just never been publicly sold
it was either too expensive or just not the right time
they finally decided to do it after 50 years of putting it as an idea
Designers can do anything with concepts, its the production car that matters
And if theyve used the same formula for several generations why switch up
vroom vroom

Stop spewing crud, and start gitting gud.

It's a shame I have to actually make this video to make those individuals harness the ability to properly u...
car are funny to steal
but this is a good explanation of GM design theory on the c8
whatever is objectively good for the corvette is good enough of a reason to me
the transistion between the C7 and C8 was 10x less drastic compared to the BMW M4's F82 to G82 to me
I am not that invested to watch a video on the matter💀

wagons are undeniably cool
Unlucky, amazing cars
there is MAN trucks but no WOMAN trucks

Im pretty sure trucks are unisex
-4 wheels
-windscreen
a6 avant?
the rs6 is nice as well
I'd probably choose one over an Urus tbh
i would choose a shit tonne amount of cars over a Urus too
The urus has the same powertrain as the similar Audi's like the rs6 and Q8rs
making them pretty comparable
especially if you take an rs6 and tune it to the same power as a Urus
i know that the Q8RS has the same powertrain/platform but i did not know that the RS6 shares the same powertrain with the Urus
makes sense actually, just never decided to look into it
I know the rs6 has the same v8 as those other two, idk about any other internals
but I know you can easily tune an rs6 to have as much if not more power than an Urus
reliably
i'd rather have an rs6 with the same power output as an Urus than an Urus
The Urus is like $100,000 more and it too flashy and high off the ground

yeah im of a similar opinion
plus wagons are just cooler
easily means what, specifically?
what kina tuning,
A place who can get into the ecu, 5 minutes with a laptop, and a usb stick
The engine is detuned from factory
So you are just un doing it
Bigger turbo = more stutututu =YES
brera?
always loved it
but I often hear that its reliability is egh though
oh shit nice
Typical Alfa Romeo
Honestly its getting older now, ive had a couple issues but its pretty damn strong
HOLY SHITTT. Thats nice bro
Thanks🫡
I love your cars
2008
Theyre amazing cars, mine makes big power but the driving feel in general is just
I'm still in love with this RS6 sedan, Audi should kept producing a sedan version of the RS6 fr
Rs6s are a bad car overall
The maintenance costs are high, the car itself is expensive, and it lacks the power that other cars in its price range typically offer.
For the price of an rs6 you could buy a redeye with like 800hp
Almost double
Double it and give it to the nest person
You could nearly purchase two Giulia Quadrifoglio models for the cost of a single RS6, despite both offering similar power.
or 4 kia stinger GTs
Im so sad kia stopped making the stingers
Power is the only thing the redeye has over the RS6
and they’re not comparable tbh
I don't even think a Redeye has anything else to offer other than 800hp (only on special occasions btw)
it’s like saying why buy a Porsche GT3 when you can buy a GT500 or something
For less than half the price
A truly bad car according to its price could be any 90s GT-Rs or Supras
horrendous take 😍
never said that
i just said that it had a horrible price lmfao
which is true
and other cars around that same price have something going for the other than beeing an audi and having a better engine compared to the inferior models
How much is an RS6? Around 150k?
Lemme check rq
i think the avant model is like 150k
or 160
im talking about the new models not the old ones
bcs the old ones are probably cheaper if bought 2nd hand
Yeah in my country they are sold new for around 150k
For 150k I'd rather have this but it's only about taste
the thing is that its not only audi that does this
other german (mainly) brands do this aswell
thats also why these cars are rarely seen
In what world is anyone taking a stinger over an rs
a world where someone prolly can’t afford an rs
"Rs6s are a bad car overall" ?
Your argument fell completely apart at this sentence
Hellcat redeyes are not half the price, and they can't be compared to an rs6 avant from most standpoints they are cars with two completely different purposes
Horsepower is absolutely not everything
That's the most obvious point here
Rs7
That's also a good one
A lot goes into a price of a car
Dodges are cheap because they are $30,000 cars with a big engine
Nah RS7 ain't enough. I want RS6 sedan
for the price? yeah
all cars have the same purpose, and they are both the same price
to a certain point, yeah. but not when the difference is almost double the hp...
also the redeye is cheaper by like 15k
but the overall quality is much cheaper
only thing the redeye has going for it is the engine
thats just american cars in general
…which is why I’d pick the RS6 instead
No they absolutely do not
That is like saying every tool in your toolkit does the same thing because they are all made out of metal..
A Jeep wrangler has a very different purpose than a Lotus Elise
A stock Porsche gt3 rs or a Mclaren 675lt could smoke any stock hellcat
The basic rule of car enthusiasts
Less weight >>> more power
If you don't focus on the important things first, you'll just have a piece of shit with 1000hp that can't move right
not at all
every car has a purpose of going from a to b
wrenches cant do that
Meh depends
Those cars are also like way more expensive that any hellcat
So its given they are faster
Ur comparing having a car thats 2x the price of another and it beeing faster with two cars of the same price
Which imo doesnt make much sense
Also if you want to compare it to something different like an alfa quadrifoglio, the difference gets even bigger
With it having 70hp less and a faster time on the nurburgring
And the interior is nice aswell 😏
AND IT COSTS ALMOST HALF THE PRICE

buddy, if you're buying a car with the goal of "get from point a to b" then neither an rs6, not a hellcat, nor anything else with a price tag even in that vicinity would be your concern
Well for that price range the rs6 is really only a good "get from a to b" car, not anything else

really?
I mean we got cheaper cars that are better than it in every aspect
Please read what i wrote
Damn ur so wrong
He said gt3 rs not gt4
Also im talking about the alfa romeo quadrifoglio not the gt3rs
yeah mb
That is way too broad of a statement. A supercar gonna rock crawl in a jungle, and an 18 wheeler can't do a sub 7 minute around the ring
Cars can have very different purposes
Yeah but the rs6 doesnt excel in any of them to the point where its justified its price point
Thats what i mean
I couldn't care less about price, I'm talking about the time cemented fact that less weight and rigidity is better than more power in almost every scenario
Cars are priced the way they are for a reason
You dont care about price when comparing cars? Seems flawed.
An rs6 avant handles a lot better than any dodge other than a viper
Yeah but the rs6 avant costs way more than those aswell
You can buy a dodge acr for less than an avant and it will be faster around a track
You were saying in the beginning why get an rs6 if you could just get a hellcat. When in reality they are two very different cars that serve two completely different functionalities
They really have no matter comparisons
Well i just gave the hellcat as an example
Not that it had to be that car
I just said that there are wayyyy better cars for the money
Newer vipers are a fortune unfortunately
Old ones sure, but old ones aren't as fast or well averse for handling
Direct competition to the rs6 sedan and wagon are around the same price. Bmw m5cs, Mercedes gt four door
These are all $140,000 cars
And im willing to bet that any acr does a better time on the nurb compared to the most recent rs6 avant even
New ones do
The comparable competition to the rs6/rs7 cost the same amount if not more
Audi is the cheaper of the three most of the time
You’re still comparing a pretty much street legal track car to a wagon
just not fair
compare it to the cars similar in its class
like what epik mentioned
I mentioned the viper because it is the only dodge that handles better than an rs6
It was a tangent
The oldest acr from 1999 does 8 minutes and 10 seconds the rs6 avant does 8 minutes and 9 seconds
Wild
Slow ahh car
They are both slow
Yeah
But one is a purpose built track car
But one is from 2024 and the other is from 1999
The other is a new wagon
Well
Fine
Whats the rs6s purpose then
Wagons aren't held to track car and supercar standards
how about we compare the Ferrari F50
To be a very fast wagon
to a bmw XM
It is extremely fast, for a wagon
Theres faster wagons
You want more than 640hp inside german luxury quality and expect a reasonable price?
Isnt that what you look for when buying a car
Like if its more expensive than average atleast be better
Because it is better
Its not tho?
Such as?
No idea
there you go
What is a better station wagon than an rs6 avant. Lamborghini Urus doesn't count
Im p sure there are tho
Where
you answered yourself tbh
If they were better they would be very, very expensive. The only thing better than German engineering and interior quality is when you mix it with bespoke stuff like Zagato
Zagatos wagon shooting brake is $899,000
But it indeed is faster
Lol
The urus is faster than the rs6 but it uses the same engine
The rs6 is de tuned
You could make the rs6 avant have equivalent power to the urus in about 10 minutes
Maybe less
It voids the warranty but it will be fast as fuck
A quick search told me that the Porsche Panamera Turbo S Sport Turismo is faster and better and cheaper
you can make it have equal power with a usb stick
And its a porsche wooo
A porsche panamera turbo specced out doesn't leave the showroom for under $160,000
So it starts more than an rs6 avant maxxed out in options
Just like the audi rs6 avant starts at 150k it also doesnt leave a stand at less than 160k
Rs6 avants are hard to get to $150k msrp
Porsche on the other hand
They can have $60,000 in options alone
And these two cars probably have the same engine
Given the fact that Porsche and Audi are closer than siblings
There’s also the performance version of the RS6/7
With like 630 horsepower
Rs6/Urus/q8rs v8 can easily get 750
I wouldn't do that though
I think 640 is good for that engine
More and issues erupt
Theres also the taycan
It's an ev
Ev's don't do speed they go nyoom in little skips
Because they are awesome
Nyommm
And very well built
200k for an electric vehicle
What taycan is 200k?



They don't go over $170
The topest one
For a maxxed out turbo wagon the taycan can't be 200k
Unless they raised it this year
For 2024
Which would be a $35000 jump
Sounds unlikely
Ah
Inflation
You could say taycan't

Taycan't panel gaps, but Tesla can!
That would be classic Porsche marketing at its finest.
They used to roast the shit out of companies back then
I asked on reddit what was the best car to buy for ~35k € i got like 5 people tell me to get the tesla m3
Didnt know bmw made teslas now
Lol what fr
No they mean model 3
Ohh I'm dumb
People are weird AHUH IM BLIND
The new
Weird way to spell Hyundai Elantra N
Model 3 from tesla doesnt look to bad tho
Hyundai genuinely makes cool cars now
The new one is just a headlight change it seems
My mom will never get an ev tho
Theres also some interior changes
I wish they were reliable by any metrics, they would be killers
The i30n is really cool
Well for one it’s not a Kia soul
My parents have hyundai trauma
Tesla is a mixed bag, being such a new company
We once went to lisbon on my stepdads hyundai and it was horrid
I think the 2011-2016 Sorento range is fairly reliable
The car broke down midway we had to walk up a street for like 3kms by foot and the next day my mom woke up with kidney stones
It's a unicorn
Im not even joking
Damn
Whole trauma
Which seems to be a theme with our cars
My stepdad sold the car the next day and bought a a3 with a 1.9 diesel
Not the first time it happened
Classic
And its a 4 door
How rare!
My mom also wanted to buy a new a3 but after reading the reliability brand graphs its not happening
Entirely valid point
But still several cars i could name over a kia stinger in that price range
so based, what gen?
So earliest 8P car?
This one isnt really a 2.0
Its a 1.9
Basically the same
Not this one
Our one

Yeah, the 1st gen didn't even have 2.0 TDI engine, only the classic 1.9
Those are the most reliable of the bunch
Lc500 or M8 comp
Used M8 and new LC prices here are basically the same
i would buy the LC500 out of the two
LC500 if you want to stand out even tho the interior is definitely outdated
M8 otherwise
Unfortunately the Japanese are behind everyone else when it comes to interiors and the tech
LC500 for the looks, there's nothing like it on the market rn
name em, i wanna know
lc500 absolutely 😍
Why can’t I send pics
I'm still surprised that no everyday car has the Airbus style sidestick or the F-18 style center stick. 🤔
You gotta have lvl 5, if you want tho u can send them to me and i ll send them here with your @
@hybrid charm I prefer the lc500 interior tbh looks more comfortable to be inside, M8 is pretty basic imo
Basically
lc500: better exterior + interior + special
M8: faster + most likely handles and drives better
If the lc was faster I'd pick it in a heartbeat
But the M8 is supercar fast
It has to do with owner preferences
If you want a slightly more reliable and unique car pick the lc, if you want a better performer get the m8
I would pick the lc
Just bcs i like its uniqueness and its rare to see any lexus here in europe, much less an lc500
Anyways
Anyone got an old series 1
Aliexpress wildin these days
The lc500 also sounds better
but it has a old people driving to the golf course vibe to it
sort of like the Mercedes Sl
I would prefer M8 because I'm not really fond of huge SUV.
But if I would buy an SUV, I would pick Ford Explorer.
wrong model
the m8 is this
brand new I think the m8 is in a different league than the lc500, so you can use the m8 depreciating like crazy to your advantage when they become like $60,000-$70,000
lc500
Yea at the end of the day the cars aren't really very comparable
the m8 is double the price new and faster
What is the right knob for in this Expedition?
The left is for AC fan speed and on/off, center is for thermostat, but what is the right?
improve the quality and it ll tell you
Quality?
yeah?
mybad am i supposed to read this?
looks like it says "PLUHH"
Oh
I couldn't find a better quality
I thought you said that the right knob improves the quality lol
It says 'Panel' on the left, and 'Floor' to the right
I assume its control to direct the air flow?
Oooh
I guess dual-zone climate control is already an old tech
While the common dual-zone is a separate thermostat for driver and front passenger, some are for front row and mid row separately.
Why the specific steering wheel position
Cause I will be splitting my time between Europe and Australia from next year
And they are unfortunately different drives so I can't use the same car in both places
Bro 😭😭😭
Thats so silly
Blud ford escape platinum hybrid 2023 best

Damn u dk the car u got😭
I had a 2010 Toyota Yaris but I sold it
My next car finna be like a early 2000s civic
Can get one modded for like 2k on marketplace
💀
Hope you're a good welder
Why you gotta be a good welder to own a 2000s civic
because there's like a 98% chance it's going to be rusty as fuck
pluh‼️🗣
im gunna go in to school to be a mechanic within the next few years hopefully
n ima choose which one ima get carefully and look at every angle and detail of the car
What gen do you want? I highly doubt you can find a clean one for 2k
But what gen
idk that much ab cars honestly im just starting to get into them
i have friends who are rlly into car so id have to ask them
pic for reference?
id have to look for one
im unemployed rn so im not rlly looking until i get a job, ive looked in the past tho and seen some that look pretty good for like 2-3k
Lmao this is the reason I wanna visit America
Go to LA and play gta irl
From the videos I've seen it's literally an irl GTA lobby filled with NPCs
this is in delaware county in pa
right outside philly
n u gotta know what to do
how to do it
n when to do it
Yeah or just be a foreigner and buy a car with scrubbed vin and fake plates
i personally hate red lights, so ive come up with my own way to avoid any red light ever
gotta be able to get away
have fun running from a car on foot
And then buy another shitbox and do it again
No
Like dump it off the road somewhere or an alley and run
Or into a bush when you're ahead
ud have to get ahead
