Porsche could do literally anything better than Tesla lmfao

[mental lion]

Duh

[loud spade]

He’s not lying

It’s a long ahh rx7

Should’ve slapped some doors on there though

[willow barn]

[dire shard]

[vocal tide]

@mint plank this both a positive and a negative for China

https://vxtwitter.com/erect1234/status/1838528264551436473

It is the "before>after" kind of stuff

Then you wonder why China property market is... not faring way

it's because they do this kind of stuff on a massive scale

[mint plank]

Tofu dreg
Nuff said

[vocal tide]

I dont this to be as a bigger problem than the cope that urbanisation will be built wherever they want

[dire shard]

your building isn't going to be made of tofu in most places, but this is a problem with their rapid rail straight up building faster than their urban development rate

caojiawan station was made in 2017 and overgrown for three years before the avenue in front of it was made

straight up just plopped the station entrance in the middle of the woods, creepypasta style

[vocal tide]

I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing

Because the bigger issue in Europe and Americas is the lack of forward planning of public transit, especially in new developments

Construction of metro in particular is very pain in the arse if done under developed areas

And China excels in building metro systems at a very reasonable cost. You got to any city in China, the metro system will feel very similar, as if they are built from the same company.

China is doing what Hong Kong and Japan do to their transit networks, but on steroids, which in itself isn't really the big issue

Caojiawan station is a success story in the Chinese Urban planning. What isn't a success story is the myriad of plots of land with infrastructure already allocated but nothing being constructed

And also the fact that the developments that are popular in China (the ones you can see on high rise) have a bit of a flaw in that they are only really attractive to live if there's a lot of people living in them, since otherwise they suffer from the flaw of "hey, it's not profitable to operate the commercial zones beneath the store"

I've seen some those properties in China and some of them only contain a supermarket even though they have the footprint of a shopping mall that are able to support Yum cha halls. And other properties are just flooded with stuff like Starbucks, McDonalds and KFCs (these are the type of brands that will occupy those kind of complexes if they have a lot of ppl living in them)

[gusty roost]

Despite the fact that I don't like the RX-7 looks, i would

[kind osprey]

Ima just pretend like I didn't hear this sentence

The fd rx7 is one of the most gorgeous cars to come out of the 90's

[gusty roost]

Idk man, if we are talking about Mazda

I would COMPLETELY prefer

Furai above any other Mazda

Change my Mind

[kind osprey]

That is a goofy gran turismo looking concept car

The rx7 in its time looks as good as Porsche's and had the best power to weight ratio of the big jdm cars

Minus maybe the nsx but nsx is double the price

The lines flow immaculately, the doors are completely flush, it's a practical hatchback.

The only annoying thing about them is engine maintenance

[gusty roost]

Looks is subjective, but i agree that it is really powerful

I just don't like the Very Round Shape of the RX-7

[kind osprey]

It isn't powerful, but it's just so light that the power it has can be utilized very well

[gusty roost]

Nah, it is, just imagine if the Furai had the Rotary Engine

[kind osprey]

They made one with an engine?

I wonder why they didn't put a 4 rotor in it like group c cars

[gusty roost]

The Original Furai was fully drivable

Before it turned into carbon…

[loud spade]

The what

Rotary?

[gusty roost]

Yeah, that

Translator messed up

I didn't realize until now

Thanks for the correction

[onyx rivet]

[kind osprey]

Oh that thing must've sounded fucking amazing

[obtuse urchin]

Polestar

[dull folio]

Wouldn't a new paintjob be way more expensive than the car itself?

[night steeple]

at this point it is, but I'm keeping it

[kind osprey]

Yea, that's why I didn't paint or even wrap my car. It just doesn't make financial sense to make it look better

[steady cove]

Why do you want to paint that

Theres gotta be some other reason other than "it looks ugly as is".

You'd be better off buying a used car in good condition for the money you'll waste on painting it. So, like, there must be some sentimental attachment to it.

[dull folio]

If we're talking paintjob (not wrap), you'd be better off buying 2-3 clean examples of that car, if we're talking wrap, then atleast 1 clean example. I know you want your car to look good, but from a financial perspective, it's straight up nonsense

For my first car should I save and get a car I like or get the cheapest running motor vehicle

[kind osprey]

get a shitbox while you are young, something reliable, comfy, but on the worn side

New cars and monthly car payments are insanely wasteful if you want to build wealth with a relatively small income while you are young

[crimson rampart]

I want an old Cadillac but I think to get that I'll have to be vested in my career

[kind osprey]

that's gonna be a lot in maintenance and eletrical issues

think more along the lines of Honda Accord's, Toyota Corolla's, rav4's, crv's

cars that are very boring and good on gas

[dire shard]

we getting a gt86 with this one

[jagged sentinel]

As much as I love american cars, they've never been as trustworthy as Japanese vehicles

Old or new

Once in a blue moon we make an american car that's as reliable as a Japanese vehicle

[sage roost]

Exactly my thought

but avoid the first model year unless it's been recalled and fixed

yeah first model year had a valve spring issue that caused a recall

but if it's a high mileage one chances are it's been fixed

[gusty roost]

I didn't know Round Jeeps existed

The fuck is that thing?

That doesn't look like a Jeep

Looks like a Jweep

Picanto actually pretty cool

ngl I really want a Yaris (GR if I do happen to win the lottery some day)

[onyx rivet]

okay yeah i gotta agree, the front of the Picanto is too overstyled

but otherwise the picanto is fine

[uncut saddle]

current Picanto is a bit of a downgrade compared to the previous model, but I do like the rear a bit more

[jagged sentinel]

Are you really surprised?

[onyx rivet]

nah i was hopeful

the little mustang that could(n't)

[jagged sentinel]

They didn't even do a lap

[onyx rivet]

?

im adamentely certain they did more than a few

unless you mean an actual flying lap

[jagged sentinel]

According to this article they didn't do any

Right as they were about to the weather turned bad and they waited for it to improve, to no avail

[onyx rivet]

https://youtu.be/bptcm7cJ8bM?si=siKAjsU1K6esQJ6w

i assume the article meant they couldnt do an official flying lap

[jagged sentinel]

Yeah that's what they were doing

Try to do, rather

[onyx rivet]

forg gotta wait til next year

which by then a manufacturer will release something that will blow the gtd mustang's expecatation out of the water

[jagged sentinel]

Mercedes did that already

With a million-dollar hypercar with an F1 engine that destroys itself every 26,000 miles

[kind osprey]

The gtd looks sick I'm kinda rooting for it

[jagged sentinel]

So am I

[kind osprey]

Even though I'm not much of a Mustang person

[jagged sentinel]

It's barely a mustang, come on now

[onyx rivet]

nah of course
i doubt the mustang gtd was ever even within consideration of the AMG-One

[jagged sentinel]

It looks a bit like one and has a coyote motor, but not much else afaik

[onyx rivet]

i meant the 911 GT3 and whatever else i cannot name at the moment

[jagged sentinel]

Like what? The GT2 RS?

[kind osprey]

We need a gt1 again 😆

Some funky ahh mid engine 911

We got the Carrera gt, 918, now we gotta wait for the next one

And the allocation list will require you to buy 8 Macans with every stupid option and 3 Taycan cross's

[jagged sentinel]

If only the 919 street reached production, unfortunately it likely never will reach that stage

[kind osprey]

That's the crazy concept one right

[jagged sentinel]

https://media.porsche.com/mediakit/unseen/en/hypercars/porsche-919-street

[kind osprey]

Damn it basically looks like the lemans car but roadified

[jagged sentinel]

That's basically what it is, but they can't get the engine to work as a street engine

[kind osprey]

What's it like a hybrid v4?

[jagged sentinel]

Yeah

The article says 900 horsepower altogether

No wonder they couldn't get a drivetrain like that to work in a street form

[kind osprey]

Yea they should put the 911 engine in it or develop a v8/v10

[jagged sentinel]

The little blurb in the link says it takes a team of engineers 45 minutes to start the engine of the LMP1 variant

[kind osprey]

V4 seems like a lingerie nightmare

How the fuck... does Longevity... become the word lingerie

Discord autocorrect is actually fucking stupid

[jagged sentinel]

From what I know it's not uncommon for endurance racing engines to have a lengthy starting procedure like that

[jagged sentinel]

[kind osprey]

Ik they are tough to start up and require an external crank but I wonder why it takes so long

[jagged sentinel]

Especially if it's an engine that small making 500 horsepower on its own

[jagged sentinel]

I believe it requires more than that

I remember donut media doing a bumper to bumper on a Corvette C6.R and they mentioned that one of the steps of the starting procedure was warming the engine to operating temps just so the cylinder bores were big enough for the cylinders to fucking move

[kind osprey]

Lmao

Race cars are funny things sometimes

[jagged sentinel]

Back when donut media was good

[kind osprey]

Imagine Susan having to do shit like that to start up her Kia Soul

[kind osprey]

We got Bigtime so that's fun

[jagged sentinel]

Also keep in mind this was a 7 liter engine making probably around 500 horsepower, imagine a 2 liter engine making that

[onyx rivet]

911 gt3, gt black series, huracn sto,

wait i only listed two cars lol

[jagged sentinel]

The GT3 RS is already out and has done its run around the ring iirc

I think the GTD has a chance of beating that

[onyx rivet]

GTD was always tryting to becnhamrk itself to the 911 GT3 RS ueah

and i suppose the ZR-1 C8

[jagged sentinel]

I think the GTD will be faster around the ring

Someone start an conversation

[loud spade]

My scooter was having really high fuel consumption, like 6L/100km or worse

I suspected it could be the spark plug the previous owner put in because I never checked it, and/or the air filter being really dirty not letting enough air in to burn the fuel

Though I didn’t smell any gasoline or get backfires

But, in fact the air filter was really dirty and the spark plug looked like some cheap chinese $2 one and had layers of carbon deposits on it

Cleaned the filter and changed the spark plug for an original NGK one

Is there anything else that might be causing this

Oh yeah and my front brake needs adjustment, there’s some rubbing going on

Don’t think that has much impact

For reference my dad has the same scooter and according to him it gets 4L/100kmh or 25km/L

Compared to 16km/l

[kind osprey]

If that 550 isn't a replica kit, then it is the most expensive car in that entire outing times 5

[nova estuary]

It's Naperville, I wouldn't be surprised. Owner of weather tech has his crazy collection there and as well as The Hamilton Collection. Lots of money out there

[mental lion]

Is there a way to tell if it is?

@modern edge @limber quarry

Yes and no. Those kits are so good and that car is such a simple metal shape that only and expert really looking at it thoroughly could tell the difference between the real and like a $150,000 kit

[kind osprey]

Where is the boxster?

[sterile kayak]

First silver porsche

[kind osprey]

Oh you were referring to the 550 spyder

Boxster started decades later

[kind osprey]

I doubt it is real then since idk if I'd let my kid casually drive a $6,000,000 irreplaceable car on publoc roads

But some people are just insane

[nova estuary]

I was just joking, idk the owner. But I don't doubt it's real just based on the location and all that

[kind osprey]

I would love to build one

My grandpa gave me a 1:16 scale of the 550 when I was like 4 so that cars always held a special place

I'd buy a t50 and a Pagani before the real 550 so a 1:1 replica would be satisfying enough for me

They are stupidly expensive for a tin shell

Lol

Their engines are so tiny when you lift up the back it barely takes any room it's very hallow, it must be extremely fun to drive

[nova estuary]

These collections are both local to the show

Macneil Collection - https://exclusivecarregistry.com/collection/macneilcollection

Hamilton Collection - https://thehamiltoncollection.com/pages/cars

[nova estuary]

I agree with getting a replica, for most any rare classic. I don't care if it's the real thing, unless I have stupid money and it has racing pedigree that I really like or something

[kind osprey]

Oh shit uea that weather tech guy doesn't fuck around lmao

Especially people in the middle eastern countries, a lot of them typically grew up billionaires or rulers of a large piece of land/country so they never valued anything. A good example is the Sultan of Brunei

Multiple f40's

Plenty of 1 of 1's

And the fucker is letting them rot

[nova estuary]

He has multis of every ferrari

So many just got parked on delivery and never touched

[kind osprey]

It's so sad

[nova estuary]

But to be fair, he pretty much kept ferrari afloat in the 2000s. They needed money bad and agreed to make some one off cars for him at crazy prices, plus future stuff too

They went to him for that

[kind osprey]

I would love to just steal one and sent it to the manufacturer to repair what has been corroded

So I take a $3,000,000 and soend $350,000 to repair what needs to be redone

He wouldn't even notice because I took one of his fuckin 6 xD

[kind osprey]

Yea he saved multiple companies it was crazy times

We rarely see one offs for rich people nowadays

[nova estuary]

That's just wild

[kind osprey]

There was that pinninfarina Ferrari a while back

This was a one off commissioned by some old rich guy

Basically a modern lemans ferrari

Sorta looks like a La Ferrari just with a different body

It gets spotted on Reddit a ton lol

[mental lion]

Looks like it’s owned by sultan of brunei

[quartz prawn]

ive definitely seen this on r/whatisthiscar lol

This car specifically isn't

But that Sultan dude has so many damn cars

[onyx rivet]

That one above is owned by John Glickenhaus

i think his first name is john

James Glickenhaus' Ferrari P4/5 by Pininfarina

[kind osprey]

Oh nice Glickenhaus

That's a hedgefund manager dude who made his own car company

That's the dream

One of his car models was even made into a gta car

[winged geyser]

interesting

[winged geyser]

which one

[kind osprey]

Idk the model name but it is under the same brand as gta's Koenigsegg

Found it

It is the Autarch

This car irl is a Glickenhaus

I would love one of these irl it looks like one of my favorite Acceleracer Hot Wheels cars

[winged geyser]

ah that one

looks cool

[kind osprey]

It is a bespoke hypercar so unfortunately beyond my price range for possibly my lifetime

If I had Glickenhaus car money I'd get a gma t50 or a Pagani first

[winged geyser]

i see

I'm more of a Ferrari Enzo dude

[nova estuary]

Is any car dude not a Ferrari Enzo dude?

[mental lion]

Yeah but he cheaped out on the ventilation system so the cars are moldy now

[jagged sentinel]

That's actually a half decent looking car

The autarch just looks funny

[dire shard]

i think it's alright, for an older car

the scg003 was really quite interesting

the competizione was kind of like the senna before the senna, but there were road-going competizione-scuderia and scuderia trims.. imagine a senna without the fat spoiler

[onyx rivet]

the front looks better on the Autarch to be honest

[kind osprey]

This is true

Disliking the Enzo for anything besides its transmission makes you an opp

What a fucking sin

my pictures r better

[kind osprey]

@twilit apex what is your counter move

[mental lion]

Ford gt isnt a hypercar

[sterile kayak]

Didn’t say it was. I was naming another example of a good looking car with a 6 cylinder

[mental lion]

Oh

[mental lion]

Their next hypercar is gonna be a a 4cylinder with 9 electric motors

The motor produces 200hp out of 2000

[jagged sentinel]

I'm sure Ferrari is about as happy with the decision as you are

[twilit apex]

His pictures are the same bus over and over again plus I drive them so mine will have more variety lol @modern edge

@modern edge you gotta improvise

Loool @kind osprey

[winged geyser]

1200hp in a 6 cylinder is crazy

but shouldve been a v8 at least

[kind osprey]

A 6 cylinder can sound nice, but it will never have the base and rumble of a v12

[mental lion]

They managed to get 640hp from a 3 cylinder so not that impressive tbh

Without electric motors

Either way i cant afford its tires so idk if i should be talking 😂😂

[kind osprey]

If you are talking about Koenigsegg that shit is alien technology

we can't be comparing Koenigsegg stuff to regular human stuff lmao

that would be too big a benchmark for the car world to reach

that little 3 cylinder is probably a few hundred thousand dollars alone

for perspective a Flagship 6.5 liter v12 from Lamborghini is around $75,000

[kind osprey]

Turbos and forced induction in general has opened pandoras box, we will never see this exponential of an increase in power again in human history so we are living in the golden era of cars before they only improve on combustion efficiency and tire compounds

in the 1990's if your car was pushing over 600hp it was a really big deal

the average supercar was high 300 low 400

not many cars were mass produced with turbos and if they were their performance would be hindered by lag

[mental lion]

Nah i meant a yaris that appeared in a car wow vid

I thought koenigsegg cancelled the 3 cylinder thing

I might be wrong

[mental lion]

It is by far my favorite brand

That is modified, it'll probably explode after 5000 miles

I thought you meant from factory

Small car car meet

[gusty roost]

Yo, Who can explain to me what Formula E is and what the hell an H Engine is (From H16, for example)?

[mental lion]

Formula E is practically electric formula 1 and the H engine is a relatively rare layout, with its main use being in aircraft engines during the 1930s and 1940s. The 1966 Lotus 43 Formula One car used a BRM 16-cylinder H engine, and an 8-cylinder H engine was used for powerboat racing in the 1970s.

[gusty roost]

And how do the H-Engines work?

[mental lion]

Similar to flat engines

[gusty roost]

how similar?

[mental lion]

Pistons are opposite to each other in both engine

[gusty roost]

so is like a -- design?

[gusty roost]

also, Formula E is active nowadays like the F1?

[static gale]

FE season is already over

[loud spade]

I don’t know anything about H engines but I’d think they work more like V engines

Actually hmm… flat engines and V engines are pretty similar

[gusty roost]

When's the next season?

[mental lion]

Yea

[mental lion]

This type of engine is extinct in barely know it by name

Had to run a good search to answer the lad

[loud spade]

Ah fair

[static gale]

I actually just happened to watch this the other day, so I'll share it here:
https://youtu.be/xdkgcXnWoxY

Pretty good channel, with videos explaining other engines as well

[kind osprey]

Flat is 180 degrees, v is usually 45-120 degrees

And the crankshaft is different

[loud spade]

Still relatively similar

Flats tend to be more balanced

[kind osprey]

They both have the same counter weight

One just can have a lower center of gravity

[loud spade]

I believe because they’re parallel to the earth’s surface, along with their pistons using the same crankpin they cancel out each other’s forces so you get less vibrations

Theoretically no vibrations

[kind osprey]

V's cancel out as well

Balance can be better or worse depending onnthe amount of cylinders

[loud spade]

Flats are typically 6

Iirc 6 is the "perfect" number of cylinders

[kind osprey]

V8's and V12's are naturally the most balanced v's because if you divide these by 360 they arw always divisible by it

360 being the degrees of rotation on the crank

[kind osprey]

Most sold today are 4

But 6's exist

Mostly Porsche's

Not many companies use them

[kind osprey]

Yes an no, inlines 6's are, the rest aren't

An inline 6 from a maintenance cost, performance, and simplicity perspective is the best engine layout

It perfectly counter balances its own weight and is just the right size for most performance cars to fit it

Inlines are much more easy to work on than v's and other more complicated patterns

Bmw's new engine they put in the supra and their higher trim 3 series/m's, and x series cars is a really good modern inline 6

It is why bmw recovered their reputation after being "unreliable" for so long. Toyota helped bmw develop the new b58 engine and it has been great so far

[obtuse urchin]

Smiling bus

[kind osprey]

It looks squished

Cause the windshield is so huge and round

The proportions are odd

[loud spade]

I don’t think a single good engine being reliable repairs their reputation lmao

German things in general don’t last very long or aren’t easily repairable

My family has had german washing machines, cars, other electrical appliances etc

And they usually don’t break but when they do you’re looking at a big repair bill or just a replacement

Now we have a bunch of japanese stuff

I’ve a honda bike, and we have two nissans

Fridge is hitachi

[dire shard]

yeah the b58 came out in 2015 yet i don't believe the general consensus of anybody thinks bmws are any more reliable than they used to be

sure it's much better than their other engines to the point where they put it or a variant of it in like almost every car they make + a bunch of cars that they don't, but ask a majority of people and you'd find the perception of bmw's reputation has not changed

[next crown]

I really want a dodge charger

[kind osprey]

The b58 is one of bmw's best engines in terms of longevity

You can actually see it affect the values of older models

For once m340i's are holding their value instead of falling off a cliff

That and the new bmws looks goofy

[dire shard]

the new m340i looks nice, though

as far as bmw design goes, the 3 series has been relatively unaffected because it's bmw's cash cow, making major changes to it would be pretty bad for business

[loud spade]

If my calculations are correct it’s about 200 miles per day

[sage roost]

Maintenance costs in a 250k mile Nissan with a CVT is 500k miles in any other car

let's see

in 10 years

SEVEN (7) transmission replacements
3 engine replacements
Entire suspension changed
2 sets of brakes/year

[loud spade]

Honestly

Nissan CVTs from my experience aren’t bad like people say

My family has a 2009 nissan Tiida and it hasn’t had any problems since buying it ~5 years ago aside from overheating

Which was fixed after changing the radiator

I think it’s really exaggerated but in reality it’s only specific models that had transmission issues

[kind osprey]

The older ones do not drive well

And some cannhave big issues now and then

[loud spade]

Our nissan rogue xtrail drives smoother than the tiida for sure

But it’s not bad

We used to have an opel something V6 turbo touring and it was a piece of garbage

I really liked that car though

[kind osprey]

One thing most people don't take into consideration is also place of origin for the vehicle. Idk anything about where the Nissan models listed here were built, but ik when a really popular vehicle has multiple countries it is produced in some can be great while other can be shit

Most companies want their products to be good so, issues can stem from factory mistakes and stuff along those lines that get solved eventually

[next crown]

Really wish i owned a dodge charger

[loud spade]

The rogue was built in Japan because it’s the premium version, the tiida was built in like 6 different places so idk

Non-American car built in America almost all the time means trouble

Kia/hyundai/genesis, the recent Toyota shit

[mental lion]

Yea some people live on the roads apparently

[dire shard]

people don't like to acknowledge this fact because it sits on a line that is nearly racist

at the cost of fucking myself for saying something racist, i will state that for example, there's a perceptable difference in build quality between subarus built in america and mexico(stuff like the crosstrek WE) and subarus built in japan(like the forester WE)
or mazda's cx-5(made in japan) versus the cx-50(america)
the materials are the same, but the care going into the construction is different, leading you to have possibly different screws, loose screws, loose clips, completely unclipped components, that rattle around to various consequences that may be just annoying sounds in the car to complete failure of a contact component
when you're paying 30000+ for a car, you don't want to see troubles like that in yours

it's kind of impossible to state why without basically saying "north americans are lazy and have no work ethic" so nobody brings it up

(nobody would have any problems shitting on chinese cars, though)

[sage roost]

Toyotas built in US vs Toyota literally everywhere else

[loud spade]

At some point the chinese realised it wasn’t worth their time making decent petrol cars now

So they’re probably working on good EVs

Should expect something soon

If you want to reduce everything to what it was based on then you’ve obviously never heard of the word development

[dire shard]

the sense

where's the sense

You said fxxk, it would be odd to compare the fxxk to a road car like the f80 so I asked "did you mean La Ferrari"

your viper thing just confused everybody because it related to nothing above

I do agree the La Ferrari looks nicer but for some reason the f80 is growing on me, it looks like a hot wheels car

I do hate that it has a quiet ass v6 though

Porsche is the only car brand that makes 6 cylinders that roar apparently

[kind osprey]

the sacred mini

[elfin plank]

That’s cuz Porsche makes sports cars with supercar performance, diff from a flat out supercar

[kind osprey]

911's above gts trims are supercars it would be insulting to not allow them in that category imo, they smoke almost everything in their price range

without the obnoxious markups and options of course

leather air vents lmao

$1600 burnt

[elfin plank]

I think the shorter frame makes it fundamentally different than a more classic Ferrari or Lamborghini type body

That’s why I added with supercar performance

[kind osprey]

They are around the same size in total length but yea the wheelbases on porsches are probably a lot shorter

they throw around so much better on a track

[elfin plank]

I can’t get around the sound tho

[kind osprey]

Lamborghini's are probably the coolest to be inside of but Porsches especially the gt3/gt3rs's are just so raw and run to drive

[kind osprey]

the downshifts on the 4.0 with no sound deadening is just pure bliss

[elfin plank]

Those old Diablo SVs sounded sm better

[kind osprey]

I've never driven any of the older ones unfortunately

I would love to in the future

[elfin plank]

Even some cars like a demon 170 with that supercharger whine sound better imo

[kind osprey]

I personally prefer higher revving so If I had to choose between a gt3rs or a Hellcat i'd choose the gt3rs for sound

Hellcat has more base and displacement but the gt3rs goes to 9000 so it just screams

In terms of rpm, these things basically kill everyone

these two cars rev higher than some motorcycles

[elfin plank]

Lower revving lets ppl know they’re gonna lose from the start tho

Save them time

💀

[kind osprey]

Maybe in a drag race

[elfin plank]

Yeah

[kind osprey]

everything else you can hide it pretty well

[elfin plank]

I’m not gonna see you on the highway and ask if we can race around Nurburgring tho

Race is straight and now

[kind osprey]

adding power helps with straights but add lightless, and it helps with everything else, I like tiny hill cars

190hp goes a long way if the car weighs 1900 pounds

i love when a car revs so high that thee for few thousands are completely overlooked xD

[mental lion]

Agreed ferrari fans keep on saying “bUt The aMg oNe is also a v6” but the amg one is like it’s own category. The f80 should definitely use a v12

[kind osprey]

true, there are good 6 cylinders

and appropriate cars to put them in

the f80 was not one of them

it should've been at least an 8, the f40 was an 8

[mental lion]

Just hearing air while they were driving it basically stripped it from the character that it should have. And for that reason i wont be getting one

[kind osprey]

Same, I was thinking about buying one at my local dealer in Edison new Jersey

[mental lion]

Ironic considering it’s already sold out

[mental lion]

Cough cough “4m is definitely not a problem”

[onyx rivet]

what car does that tachometer belong to

[vestal garnet]

There's a point at 7,000 RPM where everything fades. The machine becomes weightless. Just disappears. And all that's left is a body moving through space and time.

[fervent maple]

Saw this cool 911 Dakar at my mom's work place

[obtuse urchin]

Hmmmm i want itt

[fervent maple]

Do u like 959 Dakar

[obtuse urchin]

Less than the 911 dakar

[kind osprey]

The one and only Lotus Elise/Exige

[kind osprey]

What is the best sounding non f1 car ever made, and why is it the Pagani Huayra R?

[mental lion]

The glorified toyota camry

[loud spade]

Idk about cars but I’d say the MC22 is the best sounding street motorcycle

Cars have more diversity in terms of cylinder count and piston orientation and engine displacement which gives you a variety of different sounds

So I can’t choose

[kind osprey]

Stuff like the Carrera gt and LFA are objectively beautifully sounding cars, but the Pagani Huayra R makes them look over rated

I will say the comparison is kinda unfair because the huayra r isn't street legal

Or even really track legal

[dire shard]

ah yes, 19k rpm at 60 mph

the s2000 bike

[mental lion]

S600 with an expensive exhaust will sound almost as good

[jagged sentinel]

Now that's a bold take

[mental lion]

It’s a joke. I love the lfa

[loud spade]

Lmao

Can’t expect much speed from a 250cc

Which they made into a 4 cylinder

[knotty portal]

LFA isn’t overrated. It’s still the best sounding V10
