transportation

[elder basin]

I have a deathwish

[heady swift]

ah ok

good luck

[elder basin]

Nah I just don't need those assists, I'd like to go without ABS and I'm using racing sims to help a bit since I have a wheel and pedals but that's not gonna translate too well to the real world

[heady swift]

you'll most likely disable power-steering too, which frankly sucks

[elder basin]

the only power steering we have is two arms

[proper elbow]

Are you looking for a track car or something?

[elder basin]

Kind of both

[proper elbow]

As lot of what you're saying makes very little sense.

Very few drivers are actually hindered by ABS, even in race scenarios

[jagged sentinel]

If you plan on taking it on the road, why not keep ABS systems? It's not like it makes braking less efficient

[heady swift]

I recommend you not disable those features, or at least use in-build systems to reduce or temporarily disable them. Track and performance oriented cars often have features where you can disable TC through your dashboard menu (evo's and wrx's for instance). But in even in competitive environments, safety features massively increase peformance

they often come from racing R&D

and I mean the evo has reverse TC...

[jagged sentinel]

Do newer vipers have the ability to turn off TC, ESC, and ABS?

[heady swift]

https://cdn.dealereprocess.org/cdn/servicemanuals/dodge/2017-viper.pdf

who knows

[jagged sentinel]

Bruh

[heady swift]

you can turn off the passenger airbag

that's nice

[jagged sentinel]

Why

[kind osprey]

Most cars let you turn it off or have weight sensors that do it automatically

If nobody is in the seat it doesn’t go off

[heady swift]

205-209 provide useful information on diver assists and driving modes

[jagged sentinel]

I wonder what the "reduced stability control" allows that the default level prohibits

[heady swift]

guess that the threshold value for correction is increased

[jagged sentinel]

Maybe it allows the back end to kick out a bit more to allow for some little drifts

[heady swift]

yeah exactly

or the amount of braking is reduced

[kind osprey]

Of you turn off traction control, in a VIPER you are either the Stig, or a complete dumbass.

That car is probably the deadliest thing built in the 21st century with exceptions existing like the tvr

[jagged sentinel]

I would say something about koenigsegg but the Stig crashed one so

[kind osprey]

It was a wonky prototype

Wasn’t a production model

[heady swift]

koenigseggs underperform on tracks

[jagged sentinel]

CC8S wasn't it?

[kind osprey]

Yea they are more really for going fast, if you want to make a turn there are other vehicles lol

[heady swift]

I could see koenigsegg build a le mans hypercar. A lot of manufacturers have joined and koenigsegg could use some good pr

such a project could also bankrupt them but

[kind osprey]

Rip ma boi

So much potential but never got to go anywhere

[heady swift]

they could go a long way with reducing engine size

using that new hybrid technology could prove useful for a not-only-fast-in-a-straight-line-car

[kind osprey]

That three cylinder that makes 600 hp alone could be a great engine stand alone with a small electric motor to kick it in something tracky and super light.

[jagged sentinel]

Their engines aren't particularly large to begin with tho

[kind osprey]

Yea they are fairly decent sized v8’s but nothing big big

[heady swift]

the agera has a five litre v8, for euro standards that's pretty big

[kind osprey]

The new four seater has a super tiny one. Only a 3 cylinder, it’s like a bmw i8 without the disappointment

[jagged sentinel]

The Gamera wasn't the first time koenigsegg screwed with hybrid technology

[heady swift]

yeah the regera has a hybrid system too

and the 5 litre v8

[zealous nest]

the BMW I8 without hte dissapointment. XD

[blissful lagoon]

This

[proper elbow]

What the scheiße

[placid spruce]

The chevy SSR was a failure. But hot damn do I want one for no reason

[blissful lagoon]

Yes

but

volks beetle truck

[hybrid charm]

Chevy ssr is the ugliest thing ive ever seen wtf

Its like if the designers of the fiat multipla and the plymouth prowler made a car

[kind osprey]

A hard top convertible truck 🥵

[hybrid charm]

And the pt cruiser too

[hybrid charm]

Mustang Bad For Turns

[night steeple]

the SSR is like retro but done wrong

gimme the prowler

[hybrid charm]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQIhsN7Cg1o

[jagged sentinel]

I believe certain years of SSR had LS engines in them iirc

[placid spruce]

I think the whole selling point of the SSR was that it had a Corvette engine

Unfortunately it did not have the suspension, brakes, or comfort of a corvette

[burnt badge]

its actually illegal what they did

china doesn't allow to mod vehicles

even painting them a different color

is a crime

[kind osprey]

china no fun

[burnt badge]

i mean nobody drives there besides the mega rich so it doesn't really matter

driving in general there is pretty scary since you only got whales who are full of themselves on the roads

[heady swift]

you have that everywhere

[burnt badge]

ye but there its like sharing roads with beamer drivers everyday

[heady swift]

yup

everywhere

[burnt badge]

tbh im glad i live in a country where you don't get your licence thrown at you and people actually know how to drive and consider that other exist on the road with them

its pretty rare but ye ignorant drivers also exist here

mostly beamer and benz drivers

[heady swift]

those are commonly known for bad road-behaviour

like, our roads are to prevent people from going really fast by putting shit everywhere and making it smaller, but the second you hear someone fly against a tree at 150 km/h in a school district you know it's a 20yo with a brand new rs7 or m4

[jagged sentinel]

Same over here, except it's usually a mustang or challenger

[burnt badge]

i dont get why they aren't limiting the amount of hp a new driver /under 25 y.o can have

[heady swift]

I read that as health points

[burnt badge]

horse power

[heady swift]

thought you wanted to kill them off

[burnt badge]

ps

[heady swift]

yeah I know

[burnt badge]

lmao

i mean

[heady swift]

they already do that with motorbikes*** because crashing with them is usually more fatal

[burnt badge]

i find it crazy that i can get a 600+ ps car even tho i can barely handle my 100ps

[jagged sentinel]

Usually that power doesn't come cheap

[burnt badge]

also having more power leads to speeding

[heady swift]

eh, a lot of deaths are because people don't pay attention

the amount of vw drivers who misbehave is pretty big, and those polo's aren't exactly powerhouses

[burnt badge]

thats why i hate going to the autobahn

im a pretty fresh driver seeing how some people drive is pretty scary

[heady swift]

just go to eastern europe

even the school districts are like the autobahn

or france

[burnt badge]

lmao

in india you basically are in a maze

[heady swift]

[burnt badge]

im actually impressed how they manage traffic there

[kind osprey]

What car with only 98 horsepower can you not handle, or are you talking about motorcycles

[jagged sentinel]

At least in the US us normal drivers have more space to avoid the bad drivers

[burnt badge]

i have anxiety specially when going above 130-150

[jagged sentinel]

98hp in a motorcycle vs in a car is like 2 completely different planets

[night steeple]

ive only been to vietnam and its crazy enough already

[kind osprey]

That's dumb

I can't buy my trackhawk

I need the 707

[burnt badge]

well ye but they can limit the ps

[kind osprey]

nah i'd get rid of that in a heartbeat

[jagged sentinel]

How much horsepower is too much by your standards

[kind osprey]

make it 1000, find a nice runway

[jagged sentinel]

For me anything above 350 is a lot for a first car

[kind osprey]

It depends completely on the car, the perfect range of power for something between 3000-4500 pounds is maybe like 350 to 650 horsepower

it also depends on engine placement, if it is rwd or awd

etc

[jagged sentinel]

I willing to bet 98% of teen's first cars are going to be Front engine RWD

[kind osprey]

fwd*

[burnt badge]

for now i think imma stick to max 200

[kind osprey]

hyundai's are big around here for brand new first cars

i'm getting something old as the first car under my name since I already have a daily if it breaks lol

[jagged sentinel]

GM/chrysler cars are what I see mostly

Ford too

[kind osprey]

Everyone has a Grand Cherokee or a Range Rover here. other areas are minvan territory though

[jagged sentinel]

Considering I live less then an hour from Detroit, not really all that surprising

I live in the suburbs, so anything works here really

It's 2021 in a middle-class neighborhood locally, so lots of crossovers and crew cab trucks

[kind osprey]

That gas mileage is great, compared to the g wagon, but g wagons have portal axles

😩

[jagged sentinel]

G-Wagons also aren't the most aerodynamic things

[kind osprey]

Yea too many people buy them and only use them on the road it's sad

[jagged sentinel]

They look like they have the aerodynamic characteristics of an office building

[kind osprey]

I want to get a nice 2002, give it the aesthetics like front and back and side skirts of a more modern one and trail it

[jagged sentinel]

I want a C6 corvette

[kind osprey]

They hold their value at least

[jagged sentinel]

Easily one of the most reliable cars GM has ever made

[kind osprey]

The only c6 I really like is the zr1, but regular ones don't look bad

[jagged sentinel]

Seems like a little overkill for daily-driver horsepower

[kind osprey]

Yea over here there are cameras fucking everywhere so not much potential to even use power

[jagged sentinel]

If I get a Z06, I can't get the mythical LS7 in it

Plus I can have the targa roof, which, come on why would you not

[kind osprey]

i like targa's like the Porsche one

[jagged sentinel]

Porsches are cool and all

But I prefer american cars over foreign

Another thing about the C6 corvette that is massively overlooked is it's cargo space

It ain't a truck, but it's certainly more then you'd expect from what's essentially a european-style sports car with the distinctive american touch

[kind osprey]

it's easy to make a nice wide boot in something front engine, the c8 did agood job at a mid engine layout with still overall great trunk room for a car like that.

but jesus that vertical button panel in the interior is horrendous.

you gotta look up and down a full 3 feet just to find the button you want every other car it's right under your nose

[jagged sentinel]

The 2018 chevy camaro: 9 cubic feet

C6 corvette: 22 cubic feet

[kind osprey]

2018 would still be a c7

how did it go down that much

[jagged sentinel]

C7 Corvette has 15 cubic feet

[kind osprey]

Oh I didn't see camaro oof, i'm gonna move this closer i'm finished with work for the day

[jagged sentinel]

A 2011 ford explorer

Ya know, crossover, so you'd expect a lot of space

21 cubic feet

Of course you can bump it up to 80 cu if feet with all the seats folded down, but that's not really fair to the Vette

Plus I think it has the shape that a corvette should

(yes that's a ZR1 but we're gonna gloss over that)

[kind osprey]

the zr1 is great, a nice 2009 model with all options. Brings me back to the original forza horzion days

[jagged sentinel]

It's a shame NFS heat doesn't have the ZR1 wheels

It has the ZR1 bodykit, but not the wheels

NFS does that with some cars

[gilded kelp]

Wheels are optional

[placid spruce]

In a car game

[gilded kelp]

Says who

[placid spruce]

Wheels are optional in a car game. That's the whole humour. The wording implies you dont

[placid spruce]

My stereo stopped working, I'm considering getting a new head unit in there but idk what's good. I definetly don't need a full ass screen

[placid spruce]

I don't feel like I need an infotainment system

[old sedge]

I really want a classic Volkswagen Beetle in real life.

[night steeple]

a running ok condition example isnt that expensive where i'm from, I've seen a few

[ocean rock]

In here its everywhere

Engine's a tank, you can just wrench and slap RTV on everything and itll run

[kind osprey]

The classic bug is my grandma’s favorite car I wanna buy her one soon as a present but I’d be considered about safety.

[daring token]

concerned? or considered lol

[heady swift]

small euro classic cars are very popular but they absolutely suck

for instance

this is basically a french beetle and super popular, but they're unsafe, have awful suspension and is almost non-functional in windy days

[crystal tree]

Citroen?

[heady swift]

yup

citroën, citroen is dutch

[crystal tree]

Sorry, I don't know the code for that e

[heady swift]

ah, it depends on your windows keyboard settings/profile

[elder basin]

How good are porsche 911 carrera's? I spotted a nice one going for 19k because it has a lot of miles

https://www.cargurus.com/Cars/inventorylisting/viewDetailsFilterViewInventoryListing.action?zip=92679&distance=50&entitySelectingHelper.selectedEntity=d404#listing=161273597

[heady swift]

expensive maintenance and depending on where you live, insurance probably too

[elder basin]

It's either that one for 19k or get a later model

Like this beautiful car right here

Yeah I can definitely see this with a sensible wing and a cup car livery

[crystal tree]

Cyberpunk's driving mechanics are jank, but I still love driving this thing

[jagged sentinel]

for a second i thought that was panam's machine

then i remembered Panam's rig actually had a front bumper

[crystal tree]

Panam's Thorton also has a turret for blasting fools

[kind osprey]

I thought this was a the grand wagoneer for a sec

The new grand Cherokee is huge

I thought they were gonna go the more range rover route

[swift galleon]

[finite sequoia]

Oh

Wow

That looks scratched up

[placid spruce]

Lmao

From all the attempts to put the key in its right spot when the ignition is in the wrong spot

[analog harbor]

Hard habit to break, trust me

[elder basin]

it's even funnier if you have a 911 gt3 RS when the key is on the other side

[kind osprey]

Yea most Porsche’s have the start stop and key fob stuff of the other side it’s great

I like the tachometer right smack in the middle it looks great

[tardy pendant]

I dont got a pic of it rn but I got a 2001 Chevy Silverado 1500

[dull siren]

DC2 Integra in yellow

[hybrid charm]

Nice bus

I like the kind of tropical colour mix on it

🚍

[dull siren]

oh yes it's standard issue to all city buses in my country

[hybrid charm]

Issue?

[hybrid charm]

No, why would there be an issue

[dull siren]

@analog harbor

[analog harbor]

[dull siren]

they probably went to Thailand too

[analog harbor]

such a nice touring bike tho

[dull siren]

them traveling bikes

and requires you to take a 500cc license too

I've seen choppers,them Harley Davidsons

the V blocks

just saw a couple of sport bikes vrooming past my workplace

and also a very infamous '95 Impreza drove by in WR Blue Mica

[thick hull]

its fun ripping around in a 250 in the snow

[dull siren]

I'd like to flat out after a snowy corner

and not fall out of the cliff in a fiery inferno

[hybrid charm]

You would probably crash into a tree and explode

Like a micheal bay movie

[thick hull]

lol

[dull siren]

nah

you're sitting directly on top of the fuel tank

[hybrid charm]

He said the colour of the bus was an issue

I was asking why, it's a good style

[hybrid charm]

Ohhhh

[dull siren]

i meant like

they are issued to city busses

standard issue's issue

you pepegas

@hybrid charm @hybrid charm

i forgives you

but gib rally car pics

[hybrid charm]

You're welcome

[dull siren]

preferably not crashed

[hybrid charm]

bruh

[dull siren]

tha'ts a sad i20

but yeah when i was a wee lad i've played gran turismo on the PS1 and PS2

i did spark an interest in F1 because back then there was some F1 roadtrip in Penang Island, Alex Yong was a F1 driver representing here, so yeah actually held a helmet before and tooked a pic somewheres

later got an interest of Le Mans and the GT1/LMP1 races

after that Rallying

[dull siren]

then the interest died down for military stuff, then recently after watching some San Remo rally events the interest picked up again

and there's also them hillclimb events

like i tell ya

nothing screams madness and no rules like hillclimb

How do you get the exhaust gases into the turbo then? Thats what I meant.

i get people wanting to switch to electric cars but unless they somehow manage to make the charging instant or like not take hours people wont bother with it tbh

i mean i guess you could get an generator

Most Electric cars r not meant for top speed

I could never enjoy a drive if I can't hear the engine telling me, "You're going too fast but hell I'm gonna roll with it."

[heady swift]

yeah unless you're driving anywhere besides a track or closed road

99 per cent of cars are made for daily commuting, most of which are designed around efficiency and comfort

[burnt badge]

i mean you can still turn up with your daily car

specially on the autobahn

its the civic owners race track

[heady swift]

yes but how many people live in germany or near its borders

[burnt badge]

i do

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1HxNu61aljk

[heady swift]

you're the entire human population?

[burnt badge]

i mean most people who want to drive move here

[heady swift]

not really

it's a great piece of infrastructure for long-distance commuting, hence why it's super popular

people driving dangerously is only a small part of its demographic

[burnt badge]

"dangerously" here its called driving safetly

people who want to turn up literally have their own line

driving slow usually causes way more crashes and stuff then going fast

[heady swift]

there's a difference between a person driving 130/150 to get somewhere faster and a polish soundcloud rapper going 240 in his leased rs7

while filming it

[burnt badge]

i doubt anyone who actually likes living messes around while going 240

but i get it having no limit may cause people secially unexperianced to drive dangerously and die

but its pretty rare since you basically are going to a racing school here while making your driving licence

[dull siren]

I'd tweak my ride for the Nürburgring

I'd live in germany just to be able to drive the nordschleife, drive the autobahn, and maybe work for porsche

also VW

racing in a sim is way different then the real thing

but then again i suck at high speed driving

[heady swift]

@elder basin work for toyota instead, bigger market, better job prospects and better payment

No but a Corolla maybe

[kind osprey]

The mono looks insane, I respect slapping a piece of wood under it lol

[burnt badge]

guess its time to switch to crime then

[blissful lagoon]

The corolla is a pest now

[kind osprey]

You can’t shoot for average if you want a not so average thing.

[blissful lagoon]

They are everywhere

[mossy mesa]

I would like to die violently driving a Viper

[blissful lagoon]

[heady swift]

@kind osprey very fast coffin

[kind osprey]

I think you meant to ping the viper people

[burnt badge]

i mean most of us are in the average 99%

[kind osprey]

This thing only has like $250 hp

[mossy mesa]

I'm such a Viper head that I changed my name VIPER from Vyper

[heady swift]

250 and weighs less than helium

The first time I saw a reventon was insane

[burnt badge]

bruh your photography skills

[heady swift]

@mossy mesa that's just a murcielago batman edition

[heady swift]

@burnt badge I was like 17 at the time and it was crowdy smh

[mossy mesa]

look at this lambo

This was about three years ago

Puffy boi

@kind osprey looks like a 2000's mouse

Ah the nissan headlight Diablo

[mossy mesa]

Yes

Daddy?

[kind osprey]

My favorite cars to see in these shows are the old ass American racers

Duese, corg, auburn

All so amazing, and priceless

[burnt badge]

i wounder if it breaks down at 150

[kind osprey]

That thing won’t probably see the road to try

Not with that price tag

They were pretty strong ass jet sized engines

[burnt badge]

really a shame these types of cars gone extinct

[kind osprey]

Probably 200 horsepower lol

But cars back then were ridiculously light

[mossy mesa]

Batman?

[kind osprey]

A 20 foot bugatti royale four seater is probably like 4000 pounds

Most bigger crossovers are 4000 now

That's nothing

Compared to Brutus

Anyone?

[inland beacon]

lambos are bad

[kind osprey]

I love the sesto elemento

[mossy mesa]

Yes

[inland beacon]

paganis are better and cool and awesome

[mossy mesa]

It's awesome

[kind osprey]

I’ve only gotten to see one around when it first came out I haven’t seen one since

[burnt badge]

https://youtu.be/64_wockTS1E?t=30

[mossy mesa]

Like 570 but lighter

[kind osprey]

They are rare so I can see why

[heady swift]

@inland beacon better in what way?

[inland beacon]

cool and cooler

[mossy mesa]

Money?

[heady swift]

I mean, they're better investments

[kind osprey]

Lamborghini basically made Pagani what it is today. Also Pagani’s are beautiful art but have to be the worst handling out of the hypercars

[inland beacon]

yeah but they look nice

who wants to drive one of those lol

other than the zonda those look nice and cool

[heady swift]

the huayra bbc roadster or whatever the fuck it's called managed to get a track record on spa

[inland beacon]

bc yeah

this thingy

i like the ass of it

the ass looks nice

[kind osprey]

I guess the newer ones got the hang of the whole “im a Mercedes I don’t wanna stay on the road” thing

[heady swift]

but yeah the zonda's didn't do very great and the original huayra under performed too

[inland beacon]

yeah but they look cool and thats all that matters

who would want to drive one of those

[kind osprey]

Look at a painting if all you care about is style

[inland beacon]

not me fs

yeah but like they look cool and are expensive whats not to like

[heady swift]

would also be painful if the bc (roadster) would be significantly slower than its competitors while it has a fat v12, four spoilers and an even fatter wing

[kind osprey]

I would love to drive one of those but it’s not the thing I would want to drive first

I’d start with a gt2 rs as a warmup before I get in a pagani or koenigsegg

Those hypercars are all about top speed

They are great but more broadened

[inland beacon]

i dont like koenigseggs much

they all look so

similar

[kind osprey]

When you make a perfect car on the first generation there isn’t much to change

[heady swift]

would probably be faster than either of those

[inland beacon]

i mean

i like some of the older ones

but its so boring

cc8s was probably my favorite

but its still boring

[kind osprey]

Nobody driving these cars give two shits how they look. Being aerodynamic usually has the side effect of looking nice, but it is all about the design for performance.

Unless you are a g wagon

[heady swift]

[kind osprey]

Wait what’s that for

Too tiny

[heady swift]

click on it

[hybrid charm]

I recommend this car, good and cheap

easy to maintain, hard to not have fun

[heady swift]

sandero?

just but clio or megane smh

[hybrid charm]

yep, RS edition

[heady swift]

never seen a sandero here

aside from dacia

which no one drives

[hybrid charm]

nah, sandero is cool, we don't have those here

[heady swift]

oh where are you from?

[hybrid charm]

Brazil, thats why it is a renault

our Renault = Dacia

[heady swift]

ah

my family's from brazil too

rio and carambei*

[hybrid charm]

where is Carambei ?

[heady swift]

they drove those vw brasilia

[heady swift]

near ponta grossa

[hybrid charm]

family had one in the past, and a Kombi/VW Bus

[hybrid charm]

Nice, Parana, cool place

[dull siren]

seen a couple of them here in Malaysia

[heady swift]

yeah we had farms there so they made their own fuel out of corn

pretty weird stuff

[hybrid charm]

that's rad, making your own fuel

[heady swift]

yeah it was wild back then

[burnt badge]

you can't go wrong with a vw golf

or even polo

its that basic german dripp

shawdy like a melody in my head

im totally getting a 8ergti

in the future

[barren hawk]

the dream car

i want one so bad

[burnt badge]

i know someone who could get you one for pocket change

i mean it has probably like 200k mileage but yeah

[barren hawk]

how much

im not going to buy it but

how much would one be with 200k miles

[burnt badge]

https://youtu.be/VSTExzF4I34?t=12

pretty cheap under 5k 80+ mileage

for sure

2k (more or less) the once with 200+ mileage

mileage shouldn't really matter that much if it's been maintained well

[barren hawk]

mhm

[dull siren]

and i actually got the greece stage in dirt rally 2.0

[wide kayak]

whats the best warstock main 4 veicles

[dire shard]

that's a question better asked in #gta-questions

[wide kayak]

ok thank you

[burnt badge]

unless you are old i wouldn't drive around with an old benz

makes you look kinda homeless

lmao

tho old school benzs are amazing

[proper elbow]

Yeah I wouldn't be caught dead in a Mercedes Evo 2. Such a pedestrian car.

[burnt badge]

i thought it was a basic ass old school taxi mercedes

lmao

with a body kit

[dull siren]

@heady swift nope no wrc,only WRX

in DR2.0

[burnt badge]

either way people buying these type of cars are usually trying too hard or try to seem rich

[blissful lagoon]

That looks boring

[dull siren]

i've seen a good amount of them here

[blissful lagoon]

But eh a merc is a merc not meant to be fun fun

Some enjoyment can come out of them tho

[dull siren]

then you're looking at the wrong mec

[burnt badge]

eh i rather drive a vw then try to flex with that thing

i dont like attention specially negative once

[blissful lagoon]

If i wanted a 4 door ill just go american v8 sedan

[burnt badge]

we dont have that here

also its pretty inefficient to drive a tank

[blissful lagoon]

Well here is different

But we barely get anything below a v6 at best

[burnt badge]

we like em small and fuel efficient

[blissful lagoon]

If i wanted that ill just go corolla

which i actually do like the 90s Corolla

[burnt badge]

what do you think is a great daily driver?

corolla

[blissful lagoon]

Anything fuel efficient

and easy to maintain

[burnt badge]

so corolla

https://tenor.com/view/toyota-corolla-toyota-corolla-corolla-meme-corollad-gif-19431484

[blissful lagoon]

Yes Corolla

now if fuel efficiency was not a thing and fuel lasted forever i would choose a charger

Cause i dunno i like them

[burnt badge]

im looking for a great manual i can torture

but i doubt that i get to pick it

lmao

[blissful lagoon]

If im getting a manual its probably going to be a shitbox miata

[dull siren]

surprisingly corollas are rallyable, the 80s model anyways

[burnt badge]

miatas cute af

[blissful lagoon]

I either want a del sol or a miata

[blissful lagoon]

feiro if i want a fire ball

I got a gif for that

[burnt badge]

its soo fking cute

[blissful lagoon]

Little chubby car

[burnt badge]

ngl i might get a miata

[blissful lagoon]

I want a 1st gen with the face lift

course i wouldn't mind some pop ups

[burnt badge]

i know someone who owns a miata

sec

[blissful lagoon]

I know someone who owns a 2019 one

[burnt badge]

so fking cute

[blissful lagoon]

Angry miata

To bad the miatas after 2nd gen go for so much

[burnt badge]

^

[blissful lagoon]

Still like the second gen tho

[burnt badge]

they are adorable af

i might try to repbuild a totaled one

[blissful lagoon]

Yea but new ones here are like 30-45 k sometimes even 50k

i know i can get a hellcat for that much tho

Or my dream car

but yea if i had the money and cars id buy a miata

[burnt badge]

there are some offhand once under 10-6k

[blissful lagoon]

Like salvage title?

[burnt badge]

nah but mileage and probably alot of issues

tbh i dont mind spending like around 7k even if its just for sunday drives

[blissful lagoon]

Weekend cars are nice, but i want to try to daily one if i can

[burnt badge]

then i guess cheaping out isn't a great idea

[blissful lagoon]

No, not in my case

[burnt badge]

i mean you could always go for a golf

[blissful lagoon]

True

Never thought of getting a hatch back tho

[burnt badge]

a decent well maintained first gen would be a dream

i wouldn't even feel like a bum driving it

or its cousin the lada

[blissful lagoon]

Ladas are rare to find in the states some made it past tho

[burnt badge]

they rarely are in driving conditions lmao

they sadly weren't build to last

[blissful lagoon]

Ha i seen a nivia in a new England dealership brand new

And they had a rusted out one in the back

Probably got imported from Canada

[burnt badge]

i always joked about having a lada as my fist car

almost bought a wreck

just for the heck of it

[blissful lagoon]

They don't hold up well in crashed tho do they?

never seen a wrecked one

[burnt badge]

extremely cheap made what did you expect lmao

they come rusty straight out of the factory

[blissful lagoon]

Eh factory weight reduction

[burnt badge]

ngl i always woundered what it would be like to not be a basic ass mainstream car driver

like you never see anything exotic or old school cars anymore

or very rarely

kinda sad

[blissful lagoon]

The most exotic thing ive seen was a 1995 viper in a dealership in Florida

or that demon

im not including the pink g wagon cause that was a old deprecated german box

Don't like g wagons

[burnt badge]

the most "old school exotic car" i seen was and og ford thats parking near where i live

[dull siren]

i've managed to see an El Camino in another state

despite being an south east asian nation

[blissful lagoon]

Oh wait we talking about old school cars

[dull siren]

yes

or rare to find cars that arent exotic

[dull siren]

american classic muscles are one such topic

[blissful lagoon]

i remember This

[dull siren]

WHY SHE SITTING THERE

[blissful lagoon]

and some modified redneck truck if yall wanna see that

Ha its only 12k

[burnt badge]

muscle cars are everybodys weakness like how can you not love em

[blissful lagoon]

its got some weird f1 (not the f1 car) suspension

I remember this also

And before you ask yes its Florida

[burnt badge]

lmao

tbh all i see is trevor and his truck

[dull siren]

must be a drag truck

[blissful lagoon]

Ha nope

they daily that

They drove it everyday

[burnt badge]

i mean as long it drives

"does the job"

[blissful lagoon]

I also seen this wide boi

[burnt badge]

you rarely see them here

[dull siren]

i only see them Mustangs here

[burnt badge]

but then again its an american car

i only seen 1 or 2 in the city

[blissful lagoon]

I see a shit ton of corvettes and i kinda grown to hating them

same with mustangs

[dull siren]

they're considered export to us asian folk

[burnt badge]

american export

[blissful lagoon]

Just like your cars

yet the 25 year rule

[dull siren]

i mean they're exported to here

[burnt badge]

didn't they messed up exporting cars?

[dull siren]

oh wait

i meant they're imported here

[burnt badge]

or was it the uk

[blissful lagoon]

We got the 25 year rules so importing is kinda fucked

uk i have no clue

[burnt badge]

i know that exporting cars in us or uk for some reason is expensive af

which makes the cars even more expensive

[blissful lagoon]

Think its both

i know uk insurance sucks tho

[burnt badge]

i guess thats their way to sell more homemade cars

[blissful lagoon]

I guess

[burnt badge]

kinda sucks but then again there isn't really an american car i would want

or could afford

[dull siren]

all of the import taxes are stupid here

[blissful lagoon]

At least 1 person wants 1 American car, but i just want Suzuki cappuccino

[burnt badge]

maybe if the cookie selling buisness rolling i might get a mustang

[dull siren]

ah a man of culture

rarely hear about the little cappuccino

[blissful lagoon]

me no afford Suzuki

I want to put a conversion kit on one to make a small viper

[burnt badge]

is that one of those offbrand japanese cars

[dull siren]

no

[blissful lagoon]

The cappuccino? No

[dull siren]

home grown

in the K-Car class

[burnt badge]

it looks like one

but suzuki is a legit brand

[blissful lagoon]

Small viper go brrt

[dull siren]

but hey

least it's lighter,so can put more power

[blissful lagoon]

Busa swap

tt

[dull siren]

or if you plan to be a heretic and shove a couple of rotaries

[blissful lagoon]

No

god if i wanted that i would put a v6 in it or a miata engine

Thats like shoving a cummins in a miata

just no, course that would be neat

[burnt badge]

there is one imposter among us

[blissful lagoon]

Big brother with little brother

[burnt badge]

ngl id prefer the miata

its smol

[blissful lagoon]

I like both equally

they're unique in there own way

I find it neat

also im totally not a viper fan boy

i dont get it why people hate electric cars, they are great for commuting

[hybrid charm]

Great for the environment but they're silent

So no gas guzzling V8s

[royal gulch]

soon someone will be able to replicate the v8 sound in a electric

[placid spruce]

One guy set the Bruh sound effect as his "pedestrian warning"

Like I didn't even know that was a thing like. People can't be bothered to look and see a car coming that the car HAS to have a sound?

[heady swift]

that porsche would probably the only one I'd consider buying, aside from that electric saloon

if I had the money

@placid spruce people can't be bothered with anything

if we did, we would have no traffic accidents related to driving and texting, drunk driving, dangerous driving, etc

[royal gulch]

can't even find the price

[heady swift]

it's a study, so probably won't be for sale

[royal gulch]

oh

[heady swift]

I think it's most likely to test a new platform, suspension and off-road aerodynamics

the latter being pretty important for rallying since improper aero can fuck up jumps

[dire shard]

People can't be bothered to look and see a car coming
I believe the sound is there for the visually impaired

so it's not that they can't be bothered, more like they can't actually

they wish they could look for a car

[heady swift]

our parliament talked about this a few years ago (about possible rules on making electric cars louder)

most people look after they hear a car, especially if they're busy on their phone

[mossy mesa]

i think they should put speakers like BMW and make them sound like fkin V8s or V10s

[dire shard]

if you make every electric car sound like the lfa

[mossy mesa]

damm

fkin eargasms

[serene ingot]

bottom, you can i think i saw someone on yt doing other sounds

[heady swift]

you mosquito

gotta impress the crowd amirite?

[night steeple]

im slowly modelling a cyberpunk themed station wagon
what other cyberstuff should I add other than one headlight on top and one on the bumper

[blissful lagoon]

A taillight in the rear window

That covers a whole corner

[dire shard]

from what little i've seen of the vehicles in that game

armour plating instead of windows, and a camera looking out

[night steeple]

wanna make mine less crazy, ill think about the one sided taillight

[blissful lagoon]

Make the pillars have some silver or something

i seen some cyberpunk cars with that look

[night steeple]

I bought one of those chrome pillar "luxury" cars

[jagged sentinel]

Mercades

[eager sinew]

Tomato tamoto

[kind osprey]

The m8 looks great, I would love to get one but they will depreciate to half of their original price by the time I drive it to my house.

Lol

Those things will realistically depreciate at around the same rate as the Audi rs7, they’ll be high $60k- low $70k by the first leases are up.

3-5 years with decent mileage

Either get it at $60,000 or eat all the depreciation brand new, I’d choose the first and wait for it.

[jagged sentinel]

The only 2 companies off the top of my head that weren't present on the block were koenigsegg and pagani

[kind osprey]

They look like Huracán evo’s but pentagons lol

[jagged sentinel]

Apparently people like the 720S

[mossy mesa]

Yes

[kind osprey]

Because it’s hypercar performance for supercar price

[mossy mesa]

Idk why

True

[jagged sentinel]

True

[mossy mesa]

But

It don't sound as good as the Huracán

[boreal oak]

unpopular opinion

catfish camaros look good

[kind osprey]

Yea between the turbo and them covering all sound it really isn’t a car for sound. A quick exhaust swap can fix anything though

[jagged sentinel]

It's a smol boi V8, not really all that surprised

[kind osprey]

Unpopular opinion indeed lol

[mossy mesa]

Not only exhaust
