@heady swift preprogrammed or fully AI mapped on sim turned to irl?
ocean rock
no i mean is the autonomous system was fully learning by itself, or is it with preprogrammed command?
heady swift
can't find anything about how they configured the AI
I looked on their website and didn't see any information regarding the autonomous driving. I reckon it's self-learning like most other autonomous driving programmes.
heady swift
They're using Nvidia's self-driving system, which uses RL data and from simulations, on their other vehicles
So it's probably that one
but no point in having a self-driving 2.5 million supercar

This video makes me really want to get the bac mono over the F430 or 458 challenge cars tbh https://youtu.be/ABGSfMZOjUM
kind osprey
The BAC Mono is such a great fun looking car. It sacrifices any and every form of practicality and creature comfort for the best possible track experience while maintaining legality
there is wood under the car
just like real open wheel formula class race cars
It reminds me of a much better suited and much more expensive Polaris three wheeler or just a motorcycle in general
KTM also has one called the xbow
I have no clue if it is street legal but it fits two people if you ever have a buddy and you wanna make their pants change colors around a corner
median basalt
It would be a track only car though so I don't care about it being legal but getting one in a couple years would be pretty fun I think
I think I'd probably enjoy it much more than if I were to get those other ferrari challenge cars

hexed quartz
Xbow is street legal, I’ve seen them in Quebec and California

@kind osprey radicals and atoms crying in the corner
kind osprey
Everyone knows about those
My only concern with both of them is that the Radical has a ford engine, and the Ariel is a bit expensive for some tubes and a Camry engine.
All four of these are amazing toys but deciding between them is tricky
Also while the Ariel has an amazing power to weight ratio the open wheel layout and general shape of it could cause minor drag problems
median basalt
I think the BAC mono is pretty cool but I'm not sure if I'd spend 250k on one. I hope they have a cheaper model at like 150k or something or I can get an older one for around that price maybe
Because I think that if I can get one for around 150k it would narrow my choices to the 458 Challenge or the BAC Mono
kind osprey
You can definitely find one slightly used for $150k
250k seems very steep for one
those that expensive would have to be brand new
median basalt
Yeah, I think 150k would be the max I'm willing to go for a track only car
kind osprey
I love the detail of this game, seeing the ceramic brakes all nice and red after a good 150 to 0
median basalt
Horizon?
kind osprey
yea
I made a simplistic design (idk how to do these they take a lot of effort lol) and I made an airbender car based off of the show The Last Airbender
I based it off of this guy

median basalt
Just learned that apparently Audi will be phasing out the R8, kinda makes me want to get one sooner tbh
That looks good, I like the arrow
kind osprey
really? I thought the r8 was a big seller
median basalt
Apparently not
kind osprey
dam
median basalt
Might have to start looking seriously and if I find one that's in a spec I want I might have to make an offer or something. Not sure if I get a new one or a 2017 or 2018 though
Okay, this might end up happening. I just found one in a spec that's basically what I want but I'd have to powder coat the wheels black
So I guess the question would be R8 or a supra? Because I can't get 3 new cars before I move as I don't have the space for them
kind osprey
what year is the r8?
median basalt
2017
kind osprey
nice
median basalt
Price is 130k so I could do like a 30k down payment on it
kind osprey
I'm definitely more of a European supercars fanatic over jdm's, though I enjoy both. My biased opinion would be the r8 over the supra. Since you are already committed to the r32
median basalt
Yeah, the R32 is going to be a money pit car and I won't have to do much with the R8
kind osprey
from a financial standpoint maybe getting the supra now would make sense because those things only go up in value apparently
but with all the mods you will put on it, re sale won't be a selling point of buying one
median basalt
Yeah but with the supra I'll be doing quite a few mods on it
Hmm I might lean towards the R8 then
I don't really care too much for the front bumpers on the new R8s as well tbh
That and the 2017 R8 I found is about 50k cheaper than a 2020 R8 I found that I like
kind osprey
Yea semi mass produced german super cars usually tank unless they are limited edition
or have some crazy heritage
Some Italian cars tank even harder, like I found a Maserati ghibi 2014 with less than 35,000 miles for $29,000
strong rapids
if I were you, I would go for the older R8 V10s, they don't have muffled sound and are pretty raw
kind osprey
those maserati's suck ass but dam for $29,000 a decent v8 sedan looks appealing
what they ask for new is ridiculous so they depreciate insanely
strong rapids
I really like the older quattroporte and 2017+ GTs
kind osprey
three year old maserati's will be $40,000
strong rapids
yeah they depreciate like a falling apple
kind osprey
yea I like the quattroporte's because they seem to actually care about those over the ghibi's but in general if i'm buying something for the driving experience I want it as small as possible
which is why i'll choose a Huracan over an Aventador
I adore the aventador but it is a land yacht
median basalt
458s are great
strong rapids
yeah, they are like 100k to 150k in used market
median basalt
I've seen them for pretty cheap too like 150-160k
median basalt
I like the new R8s because they are a cheaper and more practical huracan
strong rapids
but that could change if I can find a LB Aventador
yeah R8s are really good if you're gonna drive them often
median basalt
Yeah, I just don't want to get too crazy with the car because I'm aiming for around 3k a month for the car payments
median basalt
Yeah they're fun but I'm already committed to getting an R32 GTR soon
strong rapids
I meant the R35's
daily drivable, tunable, one of the best sound, nissan reliability
under 70k
median basalt
Yeah I know, I've driven a few of them before. They are pretty fun but if I'm spending 100k on a car might as well get an R8
strong rapids
for a good one
median basalt
I'll see if there's any for sale in my state
strong rapids
well you could get a GT-R and tune it to like 700 reliable Horsepower and get some aftermarket body parts
just my opinion
which gen R8's you looking for ?
median basalt
Yeah true, something I would want to do with the R8 is get a twin turbo kit on it
second gen
median basalt
This is the one I've found that I like but I'd just have to powder coat the wheels black to be the spec I want
strong rapids
yeah
median basalt
It's a couple hours away from me
strong rapids
or get aftermarket wheels
median basalt
I might, I do really like the look of those wheels in black though
strong rapids
yeah, this is what racing games are for
creating the spec and seeing if you like
are you gonna get a airlift for it?
median basalt
My R32 is going to be money money pit car though so I'm not sure what I'm going to do with this
strong rapids
bagged R8s look sick imo
median basalt
I probably won't, Might lower it a bit but not too much because the roads are shit here
strong rapids
oh okay
median basalt
I could look into it though
median basalt
The red calipers look great too, I'll have to get mine painted red as well
median basalt
That's what I want to go for with this
I love the way the these R8s look all black
median basalt
The thing is with this car it's going to be either I get an R8 or I get a supra as well but I can't get both with me getting the R32 as well because I don't have enough space for all 3
strong rapids
don't get a supra, they are overrated
median basalt
But I'm leaning towards the R8
strong rapids
yes
kind osprey
do you have a daily car that fits more than 2 people lol
strong rapids
you should go for the R8, much much better than supras
median basalt
I'm definitely going to need to start looking for homes in the spring though because I really need more parking space or a garage tall enough to put lifts in
median basalt
Yup, cars are much cheaper to buy than homes haha
strong rapids
yeah
strong rapids
I mean just get a garage
median basalt
After I get my new house though and a couple rental properties I might get another car as well
strong rapids
and put ur house stuff in it
median basalt
I want to have a decent 6-8 car collection
kind osprey
If only every regular sized house came with an abnormally large 6-10 garage like gta
median basalt
Of like fun cars, not including dailies and stuff
Yeah haha, my house has a 3 car garage but I really just need some parking space or some space for me to build another garage
Hmmm 458s are a still a bit more than I'm comfortable with on a car. I found a nice 458 Spider RWD for 209k really close to me but I wouldn't get one for more than 200k, that's just dumb
median basalt
Wow that's so cheap
median basalt
This guy is selling it privately and it's a nice spec too
strong rapids
hmm
median basalt
When I get a ferrari it's going to be a spider. I love the 458 spider a lot
median basalt
Yup, I love the red interior or I'd do a back interior with red stitching
at least for my roadster I think I'm going to do the white with a black interior
median basalt
Yeah that's true
The twin turbo kit is what is tempting me the most
Could get it after like 6 months of having it or something
strong rapids
not considering the twin turbskies, the R8 just has the best interior a supercar can have
unlike AMG GTR's
median basalt
And it has cupholders
strong rapids
aww yeah
and the amazing audi steering and gauges
just makes u wanna buy it
Audi RS6's are also pretty good if you want a all-in-one
median basalt
It really does tbh. I do kinda want to take a visit to the dealer selling that R8 I found and test drive it
I do kinda want to just pull the trigger on it
median basalt
I actually almost bought a new M2 Competition
I was really close to getting it but I decided against it
median basalt
Yeah, then I got to pricing out my R32 build and thought that I shouldn't get it because it's brand new and hasn't depreciated yet
strong rapids
if you wanna watch R8 driving
Yeah, then I got to pricing out my R32 build and thought that I shouldn't get it because it's brand new and hasn't depreciated yet
true, they are pretty new
median basalt
I mean I don't plan on ever selling the R32 but because I'm having to get it and everything in full I'm just thinking of the money for it as a loss basically
strong rapids
yeah, GT-R's are forever to keep cars
they are just good in everything pretty much
median basalt
Yup, it's going to be my first ever right hand drive car too
kind osprey
I find it annoying, getting used to the different position and left hand shifting
median basalt
I think what I'll do is have all the performance mods done in Japan then I'll get the cosmetic stuff when it gets here or I'll have to ask the company that's making my kit for it in Japan to see if it's possible to have it put on over the states
kind osprey
but I mean if it's jdm it has to be on the right side
strong rapids
yeah
median basalt
though I'm not entirely about shipping a car with an expensive kit like that
strong rapids
well its all muscle memory, so you get used to it
kind osprey
getting the mods and tunes done in Japan sounds like the best way to go about it
strong rapids
median basalt
I'm left handed so I'm not worried about the shifting at all. I should get that down quickly
Yeah, the only thing I'm nervous about is the kit
because I'm gonna be real sad if something happens to it at any point
strong rapids
well you can sit in the car get shipped along with it
kind osprey
i'm left handed as well but I'm so used to being in certain position of the car that moving over to the other side will throw me off for a while
median basalt
Then the car is gonna be benched for 2 months while I wait for a replacement to be made and shipped over
Whenever I drive it though I'm gonna make sure I park 2 miles from the nearest car haha
strong rapids
lol
kind osprey
yea get some good full insurance on that
median basalt
My insurance is gonna be good
Especially with a kit that's worth as much as the car lol
strong rapids
...yeah
median basalt
I really hope they'll cover it though
strong rapids
do insurance cover kits?
median basalt
It depends
strong rapids
welp
median basalt
Mine might get tricky though
kind osprey
Well carbon fiber cars exist, so having one isn't very out of the ordinary. I hope it won't be too difficult since it isn't stock
median basalt
I'm not sure what it's going to be like because I've never had a modified car like this before
I kinda overlooked that tbh
Gonna have to protect my $4k front bumper though
This is gonna get PPF on it as soon as the kit is on so I don't get any scratches
median basalt
Man I really can't wait to see this car with the kit on it and the wheels with everything
strong rapids
median basalt
It's going to look so good
strong rapids
does this look any similar?
strong rapids
oh okay
median basalt
the full car is going to be carbon fiber
strong rapids
well the body kit is not really going out of the body shape
so you're fine
niccccceeeeeee
median basalt
Yeah, I didn't think so but I'll just have to ask
strong rapids
I'm not too sure about those rims though, not my taste
and those are gonna give you a rough ride
so you also should keep some alternate wheels and tires
median basalt
Yeah same here, I'm getting Volks
median basalt
I'm thinking maybe these
median basalt
Yeah, it's going to look so good
strong rapids
yeaaap

And no telling me I should manage my pits better 😂
Team still came first though 
median basalt
I really hope they do actually start production on this next year, torn between the white or the metallic gray though
kind osprey
I would go with gray
Imo white doesn’t suit that car
A more neutral between white and black with a metallic finish would do that off nicely
median basalt
it does look really good in the gray
kind osprey
Yea that gray looks 
median basalt
idk, I just got my confirmation email about it and I've been looking at different pictures of the roadsters haha
kind osprey
Nice and subtle but ready to attack
median basalt
idk about the no mirrors look though, probably will grow on me but it's strange. I know it's not final but it's odd
kind osprey
Red suits that car well too but I would probably get it is gray. If I wanted to be flashy I would just take a Huracan out
median basalt
I would get mine in red but everyone is going to lol
kind osprey
No mirrors tbh fits the design of it well, it looks like an egg, mirrors would ruin the vibe
Most of the time I forgot they aren’t on there lol
median basalt
Kinda hope it takes until really late next year to start production so I have time to upgrade to the founders edition if I want to
kind osprey
Do they mention the difference between the two?
median basalt
nope lol
just that you gotta pay the 250k as the reservation payment instead of the 50k haha
kind osprey
I wanna know more about the cold thruster boosts Elon was hinting about
That just sounds next level
median basalt
Me too, I really want the SpaceX package on mine
kind osprey
That would be awesome for stopping because the thrusters can turn around and shoot to help you stop quicker
median basalt
And they are supposed to help for cornering as well
kind osprey
One thing with these cars is who knows how good the stopping power is on them, so that extra party trick will really be a good addition
median basalt
I'm gonna need a chiropractor after mine gets delivered if it really will do 0-60 in under 2 seconds haha
That's just gonna be so stupid fast
kind osprey
I’m a brakes fanatic I love things stopping faster than going quicker, because getting a 1-2 ton chunk of metal to halt in an instant is so satisfying
Yea that 0-60 at the demo looked incredible
I wanna do that soon
median basalt
Wait I just realized
errant merlin
can you add me rq epik I send dm
kind osprey
Sure thing
median basalt
It's probably gonna have a body made of carbon fiber. Now I want to see if I can get mine in full exposed carbon fiber
When it gets closer to production or I get my email to configure it I'm gonna ask that. I don't care how much it would cost I want it
The last gen one was I'm pretty sure so I'd imagine the next gen will be
kind osprey
I always find to funny how no paint always costs more with carbon fiber cars
median basalt
Because they have to make the carbon look good and line up
kind osprey
You don’t want us to paint your car? Years salary please
median basalt
I'd actually pay like $50k to have mine in full exposed carbon tbh, that would look amazing
kind osprey
Yea I love some good carbon, it really fits on the really raw stuff like Pagani’s
My phone case a few months ago was basically falling apart so I got a fiber phone case. It isn’t carbon because that is bad for cell and antennas and stuff to be wrapped around the phone
It’s a similar fiber called aramid
Looks pretty much the same
median basalt
that's cool, I thought about getting one before but I haven't
Idk why but I just really like the way carbon fiber looks
kind osprey
@median basalt Same, one odd thing about the Aramid case is that it sort of self heals itself
ocean rock
Feeling its rigid lightness while still look plasticky is kinda appealing to me
kind osprey
Like it does but it doesn’t, because the cuts and scratches from dropping my phone are there and then tomorrow they are barely visible
Or even gone
median basalt
I get what you mean about that, I like carbon when it's matte or glossy. Glossy looks so good in the sunlight
tinted carbon looks really good too
kind osprey
I love Pagani’s blue carbon fiber
median basalt
I wish tesla had a sports car other than the roadsters that was part of the lineup because I'd definitely get that as I'm kinda wanting to get a model 3 as well now but the only things I can do is add some carbon to the interior
ocean rock
Mfw you blew the car balance off just so you can tryhard paint your car
God i kinda hate ron dennis
kind osprey
I guess all of their car have sports car acceleration so they didn’t feel the need to focus on it at first lol
median basalt
True
faint phoenix

What are the vents on the one side for?
dire shard
what is this
an aw10
yeah it is
since it's mid-engine, it would be for the engine
the other side doesn't have it because that's obviously where the fuel cap is
strong rapids
Oh god
strong rapids
Lambo are too flashy
And too much in ur face
Ferraris are just beautiful
@median basalt
U can consider these too if u haven't bought the r8 yet
kind osprey
Flashy or not, the way the Huracán drives will make it something I buy one day no matter what
median basalt
I'm planning on checking out the R8 this coming week, I might get an f430 but I'll have to see
ocean rock
SF1000 is the worst mopar ever then @kind osprey
kind osprey
median basalt
Honestly though if I'm getting an F430 I'm gonna want the scud
Right now though I am torn between the R8 and a 458 Spider
kind osprey
Yea those are beautiful, I was at a show all there were like 5 of them
All different specs
Hmm
458 has the points on heritage, and they are rwd if you are into that
The na engine is also a plus
median basalt
Yeah, and getting a nice titanium exhaust on the 458 will make it sound so good
Man I wish I had more space for cars haha
kind osprey
You can do what one of my dads clients did lol, invent a bubble cover. You put it around the car and it forms around it
If you have the driveway space
median basalt
I have space for 2 more cars
The 3 spots in my garage is already taken and I've got 1 in the driveway right now
kind osprey
This is why I sometimes consider leasing, some things are hard to stick around for a while. I used to be more of a hoarder with stuff like that but now I barely have any emotional attachment to expensive things
median basalt
I actually did find a 458 coupe rwd that's in a spec I like and it's 1 state over
It's listed for 180k but I could probably get them to lower it some
kind osprey
$180k is a bit high for that. I’m guessing 2009
median basalt
2011
kind osprey
They really held their value
median basalt
Yeah it's pretty high but I'm pretty sure it's like max specced
It's red with carbon everywhere and a black alcantara/leather interior and red stitching
just under 10k miles
kind osprey
Yea options could lead to that. Mclaren’s are like that a lot. Their options list is insane
$30-$40k for a roof scoop with a package
median basalt
Yeah, that make sense though because they have to do the roof completely different for that
median basalt
with a 40k down payment I have have the payments down to only 3k a month just about with a 48 month loan
I meant he payment doesn't really matter that much to me but I still want to keep it reasonable
Man but I could also get a GT3 RS for around that price as well
median basalt
True, michigan is full of bad roads
strong rapids
yeah so just remove porsche's from your list
lemme check prices for Mclaren GTs
weren't they like 150k
when new
median basalt
If I get a porsche it'll probably be a gts or something that I could use as a daily driver to replace my current one
strong rapids
oh never mind they are all 200k +
upbeat python
Like 150k to 250k if you spec it out completely, I think
Or was it 350k for a full spec option?
median basalt
I think for a super car my budget will be around 200k
strong rapids
R8 is a supercar boi
median basalt
because I can set aside about 50k for a down payment on one
strong rapids
hmm yeah
median basalt
or I'll probably just do the minimum now that I'm thinking about it because that money would be better in the market anyways and I shouldn't do that much because of my roadster reservation anyways
hmmm
median basalt
wow those aren't really expensive at all
median basalt
Gotta be honest, I'm not a fan of the spider. I don't like roofs like that
Only reason why I'd never consider a huracan spider
strong rapids
yeah for spiders, R8's, 458's, and even mclarens are nice
newer ferraris are also nice
median basalt
I just think hard top looks so much better
median basalt
I love the 458 spider
strong rapids
yeah same
median basalt
I think I'm either gonna go with the R8 or a 458
median basalt
I don't really need one tbh, I've got my impreza wagon that's my daily lately
strong rapids
yeha that's true
median basalt
The R8 is compelling because I'd probably only have to put about 20-25k down on it
median basalt
Those are cheaper than I thought
median basalt
I think the highest I'll go is like 200k for a car like that. At least for right now
strong rapids
if you're considering to buy a 200k car right now
median basalt
I think I'm more likely to go with the R8 because I only have to put like 20k down and I can just spend about another 15-20k for a twin turbo kit and make it stupid fast
strong rapids
then don't buy a R8
median basalt
I'm just saying that's the upper limit for me
Because that's getting up to the value of my house by that point haha
median basalt
I've also got to remember I owe tesla 150k whenever the roasters are ready
median basalt
That's not bad
strong rapids
yeah
for the tech and stuff, R8 is the best choice tbh
or a Bentley CGT
but those are pretty heavy
so tunes don't work
median basalt
I can't remember if the 458 has cup holders or not but I know an R8 does haha
sick mason
~
strong rapids
458's probably dont
median basalt
I'll see if the one I'm interested in has one, I've forgotten
strong rapids
Haha
hmm, M8's are going cheaper too for some reason
here's one for almost 100k
I'll checkout some AMG's too
median basalt
I think the 458 does have cupholders
strong rapids
wow
median basalt
apparently it has bluetooth but the infotainment is still garbage on that car
strong rapids
that's actually impressive
median basalt
looks like it has 2
median basalt
I love the 458 interior but I gotta say, I hate the way they designed the leather on the seats
it just doesn't look good
kind osprey
Is it the lines?
median basalt
Yeah
kind osprey
I haven’t looked at 458 seats in a while but I think ik what you are referring to
Classic ferrari patterns
median basalt
This is the one I'm wanting to get but man this looks so bad
kind osprey
Ah
median basalt
Yeah, I'd probably have to get those redone or something because this spec is one of the specs I'd do
kind osprey
Those look so plush and thicc for 458 seats
median basalt
besides a white paint and red interior
strong rapids
yeah I know right
median basalt
It's got all the carbon fiber options and its rwd
median basalt
fuck I forgot about that
median basalt
I found one for like 223k and I can see why
It's gray with a brown and black interior lol
kind osprey
F12 was the flagship, it won’t drop too much for what it is
It’ll be hard to find those cheap
median basalt
I think as long as I can keep my down payment around 30k I'll be fine
I've already spent a lot this month because of the roadster and I've got the R32 gtr I need to get as well
strong rapids
hmm, I checked out the GTC4Lusso's and those are still 200k+
median basalt
So I guess what I should decide is do I wait to move and get the R32 or do I get the R8 or 458 or whatever I decide to get?
strong rapids
yeah
median basalt
Because I mean the R32 is gonna be a money pit car
strong rapids
R8 is good for daily use too
but 458 is more exclusive
and you can do a Liberty Walk kit on it
median basalt
I already know how much I'm spending on the R32 so I know what I'm getting into
kind osprey
Yea surprisingly the r8 is something practical enough to just daily like that
My neighbor did that
strong rapids
yeah
median basalt
it's a more practical huracan
strong rapids
the older R8 v8 and v10 are very good daily drivers
the v8's are like 40k
cheap af
median basalt
true
strong rapids
even better than e60 m5 and old f1
median basalt
Idk why this decision is so tough for me right now
kind osprey
Everyone says that, it is great but hearing a Carrara gt in person changed my life
That thing is just all beauty
strong rapids
Idk why this decision is so tough for me right now
@median basalt you should go and have a test drive on those cars
its quite alot of money, you're spending
so might as well test drive all the options available
median basalt
Yeah, I'll be test driving the R8 soon and I'll see if I can get a 458 test drive in the next week as well
strong rapids
yeah
make sure to check out their practicality, and infotainment
it should suit you
vague parcel
Yo
kind osprey
For supercar test drives do they let you go good speeds to really feel the car
median basalt
Kinda tough because I can't really go during the day unless I take a day off trading
vague parcel
Any of you know someone with a modded avenger
strong rapids
don't think so
strong rapids
well last time I saw someone test drive a 918 spyder, he went into the fields
and the front left wheel came off
median basalt
wtf lol
kind osprey
How does someone even get to test drive something like that lol. Those cars sell out before people touch them
