also you can add sound dampning in the car at the same time

doesnt that cost kinda expensive

does not have to, for ur entire car 300 usd for some cheap ones
that's 300 dollars schlawg
how is that not expensive
oh fair
tbh not that bad
Your father drives a Ferrari dawg no wonder it's "not that bad"
i mean cheap compared to other sound deadning plates

i mean yeah. still ppretty damn expensive
:/
megh
meh
cars expensive
i have to change timing chain on my n20
ill do it myself tho
so i dont have to pay 3k at a shop
well it would turn out a 2.0 N/A diesel is enough to drift an old 190d
do need to find a TD engine for it at some point though
The diesels have a lot of torque and the cars are light
Bit lacking in the hp department for larger vehicles tho
120nm
Das not a lot
I guess turbos add a bunch.
They do the same for petrol cars. I guess.
Yeah I pretty much use the throttle digitally
Would have been fun to put a supercharger and an LSD on my old E46.
Working on my #supercharged BMW #drift car ends poorly.
Okay, sure. Your driveway is about a 4/10 from me. Needs a good powerwash and a brushing.
the way it goes 99 percent of the time 😭
Randomly walking around at night when I stumble across this beauty
Just found out mercedes ir keys are available for order again since apparently 2024, might finally have 2 working keys then instead of just one
yeah lmao it sucks
move to norway
ez
problem solved
easy to get well paid jobs, free education, hospitals and cheap fuel
i dont speak norvegian lmapo
you can speak english
everyone knows it good in norway
like our second language
yes but that's not enough to get an immigration and work visa im pretty sure
whats ur profession?
political science
Idk rare
i dont feel like norway needs people into political science 😭
no, but we need to do science on the political people
cuz its something wrong with some of them
lmao
hahah
tbh you can prob speak french in norway
alot of people here have it in school
sure
No cap
It is harder to get into Germany than Norway at the moment (Norway is a shengen country)
isnt germany also a shengen country
i can litteraly walk in it
Yes. Although exempt at the moment (At least with the Dutch border)
skill issue just dont be dutch
There have been several deadly accidents on Elten border crossing since Germany reinstated "Temporary" border checks.
The mayors of Zevenaar and Montferland have been angry on it, because people use the small crossings now (thru Beek)
what
Original article: https://www.gld.nl/nieuws/8443195/burgemeester-boumans-doet-oproep-aan-duitsland-na-ongeluk-a12-de-grens-is-bereikt
"Onverstandig en onverantwoordelijk", reageert Mark Boumans naar aanleiding van het ernstige ongeval op de A12 bij Babberich, vlak voor de grens met Duitsland. De burgemeester van Doetinchem zegt 'ernstig opgeschrikt' te zijn door het nieuws van de zware kettingbotsing met vijf voertuigen. Bij de botsing raakten drie mensen gewond, onder wie een...
oh
good to know
good thing ill drive through belgium into the netherlands for my vacation next month
but yeah for some reason our government put "temporary" border controls on many borders because politics
Or take the secondary borders. Like N317 or A35/B54
For example:
both are a notable amount extra drive for me
have to go from the very south of germany to barely north of rotterdam
I cross the NL <-> German border quite frequently, also on motorways. I've never been stopped
Sometimes there's that we have to go to 1 lane -> service area at the border -> merge back but really the delay/impact on the trip is negligible
Yeah
How do we feel about the ram 1500 bumble bee trucks
@lone fern
It's a truck.
No by default.
But the srt?
No one cares
It's a dumb boring truck with the same engine dodge puts in everything
you're no fun
Mogged
"Guys look we lowered our truck that looks ass and put the same engine and transmission as we put in every other srt model in it it's so cool and fast buy it so we can make money"
aw hell naw
On the way to work too
tends to be when my shitboxes break too 😭
never when im just bullshitting around its always when i am headed to work
Wasn't even late though
So fuck it
Low cortisol maxxing
Gonna sit on the roof and eat sour worms until a tow truck arrives after work
shiit find you a piece of rubber hose and some hose clamps clamp that bitch on there and rip her home 🤣
I'm on the side of a busy side road and where I need is basically in the road ✌️
aw damnn
Eh, that’s gonna be a no from me.
If this were back in the ‘90s when the true F-150 lightning and GMT400 SS trucks were around, that would be a different story. But at this point the hellcat engine has been so overused it’s not cool anymore
Class D has lead to some really bonkers stuff.
120KW.

I just found a 1986 corvette for $3500 cad
Might make a very interesting project car, especially since it apparantly "runs well"
be incredibly cautious with c4 vettes
i love them but holy moneypit 😭
Their retro interior is so nice tho 😭
at least it isn’t a crossfire or optispark though 🙏
I know a guy really good with cars so maybe it'll make a good group project
yeah i love the dashes
just be wary they’re known for bullshit electrical issues and ignition issues other than that i love them
Yeah
For $3500 it'll def spend more time in the garage than on the road
Car also needs a paint job
i mean considering it’s 3500$ cad that’s not terrible, but yeah expect that it’s gonna eat all your money
Yeah
who is he
Without opening the link, I'd say he's a two time Nascar Cup Series Champion, who passed at the age of 41
Fiat Multipla
bmw 320i f31 2017
just kidding
Got this HEMI today, what ya'll think?
going to see Formula 1 this weekend 🔥
I'm not a pickup truck guy, but this is a really nice photo
Ehhhh, not sure about that wheel/tire setup
Nice ram tho
Someone had a bad day.
@worldly oasis seen this today
We had a customer roll up in a Stambecco lol
love those. that one, not so much
more like
it’s bagged if that makes it any better in your eyes
i dig it.
just good looking cars in general
I just like quick Volvos. Like this one
ai processing is getting so out of hand with photos now-a-days that it honestly looks like a video game render dropped in a parking space until you view it at 1:1.
they look a bit sad but awesome cars
the wiper not resting properly on the 190 isnt good for the motor though
the motors wrecked it just has the one speed and I have seen it start to slow down even more while in heavy rain like noo dont stop
ill get around to it once it completely breaks, probably
Looks like the average Top Gear formation
We have a confirmed cause of death for Kyle Busch
Pneumonia that lead to sepsis
Ended up behind an Audi r8 yesterday one my way to chruch (I did edit it)
A while back it was grandparent's day in my school and holy, were they all loaded (so many c8's, porches, ferraris, and a mclaren)
Dang
I just saw a Austin Martin a hour ago
I just haven’t edited it yet so I haven’t posted it lol
There
Buggg
I hate european summer
At least she got her wash and the groceries are home
Concerningly high
yup
european heat + ac on + city driving with 30kmh limits everywhere
with ac off it was fine again same with ac on but country roads
Should probably get a modern fan into that thing
Eh has 2 electric fans and a belt driven one, dont know what modern replacement would be viable
if this was a tenth of the price i would care about it more
but it really is just so
bleh
mine does not have AC which is alright as im in Scotland but its getting slightly uncomfortable this time of year.
went to pull some dashcam stuff from the idiots i found on the roads the last month off of the SD, but apparently it also caught the reaction of the guy who did the alignment on the test drive of how the car sounds 🫣
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/834193059997548566/1508879718605131846/20260511_125852_10605_E_A.mp4?ex=6a17253e&is=6a15d3be&hm=f4391efb5f276c845ed1941b0438369f066cf9c1ea7869e0d36443f458761229&
hell yeah!!!
i love watching dashcam vids of techs reactions to cars lmao it’s the best
Its so rewarding seeing other people love what you have done with the car
definitely! especially when it’s someone who drives a lot of different vehicles every day lol
i mean, this tech doesnt drive a lot of different things himself i would imagine, as he works for a company that does racing porsches and stuff
I wonder if I'm damaging my car by how low of. Milage it has I still get my regular oil changes. 25.5k and got it 8/1/21
no that’s fine. as long as it gets up to temp for a bit while you’re driving it, it’s fine
Bout like 25 miles each way 4 times. A week.
At highway speeds
id say thats fine (personally id go a few miles more) as long as youre gentle with the throttle
cars generally dont like short trips (especially diesel lol)
thats not a short trip, or... diesel
In some contexts, it is. Longer trips allow the engine and everything to properly heat up, which is why they say to let ur car idle for a minute or two after longer drives
then youre fine
sorry, cant convert imperial to metric too well off the top of my head
yeah, ive seen some diesels that need 50km to get up to operating temp, modern ones are faster but still need 20-30 to properly get warm
gasoline is quite quick in comparison, in my 124 the water is warm after a single km in ~10°c weather, i generally consider it warm (including oil) after like 15-25km
still gentle with it afterwards though
oh yeah, superchargers too (but iirc not quite as bad as turbos)
mines n/a fortunately
I once had a ford escape with a turbo but that was a lemon car so i didn't give it any special attention or care as i was gonna get a different car anyways
lmao yeah, ive also sadly some people treat leasing cars like that
doing that with a lease is sad
I just treated that car like i would with any other non-turbo car as it was pretty much done
especially popular is going on the autobahn with a cold a35/45 amg and giving her beans
just to have the engine die anywhere between 20 and 30k km
its so sad to see but we cant do anything about it tbh
Oof, especially with the a35 in particular
And don't get me started on the lower-end bmw owners
like the first-car teens
like the 335i or 135i
id argue its terrible with either
both have big turbos and exceed 150hp/liter
the m139 is more made for it than the m260 but both reeeeally dont like it
regularily see those on the side of the road and in destroyed state in sketchy workshop lots
all pretty rusted too, even in non-deformed state
ppl should really do safety training, its not too expensive and teaches you a lot about your car
havent done one myself yet, got a voucher gifted to me recently though so gonna do that this summer
tho even an empty parking lot (without bollards, lamps or curbs) can do wonders if you try stuff out
yeah, since its more expensive lol
i drive my car about 140 miles each way to and from work right now so safe to say it gets warmed up 😎
Way too little. A engine doesn’t warm up with 140 miles. Minimum of 300
Is it bad to use AI to make ur car be in a nice environment for pictures? @white heart
and then post on insta
Well yeah using générative ai is pretty bad
i have a pic of my car
car
but im no photo expert
so i used ai to like colour it
😭
Is your car colorless or sum
yes
i mean the bg and grading
Fuck AI
there's auto color grading on iphones
New sun visor is brilliant 😂
Somewhere in a basement parking garage in Maranello, Italy.
because of course some eccentric european has a collection of Prowlers
Thinking about it, had Chrysler **not **put a shitty V6 and automatic in these, they'd be 100x cooler and still be talked about today
and not ironically
for real they built a car meant to be a modern “hot rod” and then put a shit v6 in them and expected people to buy them 😭
it still looks cool today.. but you just know underneath its pathetic
had the same drivetrain as my dads dodge intrepid of the era
dodge intrepids. talk about a car that's completely rusted itself into extinction
you never see them anymore
Just remove the rust
Gotta love these
yeah swap some batteriees into the front and a tesla drivetrain in the back.
of course it exists, i'm not even surprised https://youtu.be/D_FyLIbOmYo?si=Q60UN6RM3fyH82ei
Jellybean AutoCrafters, Tesla Powered 2002 Prowler took a BIG step today as the wheels turned under their own power for the first time.

there’s some old lady near me with an absolutely impeccable one, the only others i see are parked in the woods rusted to shit 😭
an Intrepid? thats a sight to see. old lady driving a mint one, that tracks
i feel like most ford and dodge economy cars like that have just dissapeared. still tons of gm economy cars out there kickin, at least here in michigan
shit probably has 20k miles on it, i only see it at the grocery store 😭
can’t tell ya the last time i saw a neon
those used to be everywhereee
a damn shame, i kinda like em for some odd reason
I forgot they did a stripper ACR model with a bunch of handling bits and was originally sold to SCCA members only.
The Neon ACR, available with the DOHC engine, featured four-wheel disc brakes, Arvin non-adjustable struts for 1995–1996 models and Koni adjustable dampers for 1997–1999 models, thicker anti-sway bars, stiffer suspension bushings, fast-ratio steering, heavy-duty wheel hubs, and a five-speed manual transmission with a shorter .81 fifth gear and final drive ratio of 3.94 for quicker acceleration.
damn i didn’t know that!
that’s sick asf
I've only ever seen like 2 of these things irl, ever
Car pissed itself
Ignore the paper towels though it was out of panick
It’s all covered in sand
My condolences to my brother for even thinking this thing can run without completely redoing the vacuum lines. Another reason why I hate European cars, Jaguar TM log not included.
Just throw a 454 in it, problem solved
I've got a vortec 4200 in the vehicle hiding in the background (because the rear axle and entire frame has left the chat) but he's adamant on getting the old V12 running again. Personally I'd throw in the 4200 and turbo it but I'll have to wait and see. The engine cranks but the gas tank needs to be drained and pretty much every rubber hose on that thing needs to be replaced.
These work best when engine swapped 
As a european i have to agree partially
The british and french build some weird cars, even if you fix or replace a broken component itll sometimes pretend nothing changed
German stuff is generally easier imo but parts are pricy
🥚
The problem is the fact it's a jaguar
Just buy german cars if you want euro cars
You want an egg here is one of the worst Korean cars ever built, it's a shame on how low the miles are on this, 57k and I can't wait to see what a total engine failure looks like, I love paying out the nose to have a timing belt replaced every 60k, Chilton's manual is a 64 step process, I'm like nope I can do an oil change and redo brakes but when it comes to a timing chain or belt that's when I start to fear.
aveo hatred will not be tolerated 
or just buy a genesis
since they stole half the engineers and designers from europe and make cars that are actually reliable
Uhhh

@wise cave what is that?
My ugly ass face ruins it 😦
This was my car before I bought it, a 2015 Chevrolet Cruze with 15,000km on it, got it for $15,000 :p
@delicate sinew damn that's a low mileage
@placid monolith I was told a lot of the Cruze were duds and people were trading them in left and right. Since I got this car in September and use it as a daily driver, I haven't noticed any issues and feel that some people aren't giving it a chance to survive and are going off of what others say
trying to decide between a 2012 golf gti manual and a rebuilt title 2015 scion tc
makes sense. my last car before this one was so beaten up I basically didn't care as long as i had functional doors, a starter, and intact mirrors 😄
@tribal pulsar I LOVE golf GTIs, so I'd have to say that. they just drive so well
ive got a mate with a gti
he loves the thing
Should go white or magnetic gray?
I don't know how I feel about rebuilts
hm... both are good, depends if you live in a weather-intense area
Does that imply major damage or that it was just rebuilt with a different engine or different components?
Are you talking about Florida rebuilt titles?
I'm pretty sure those are like Salvage title cars that are road legal again.
Well I live in Canada so the information I have is different from what differs to your country and state
It means the car was declared as totaled by an insurance company, meanining it would cost too much to fix, and someone then fixed it and got it re-inspecteded and it passed
Ah so I was thinking correctly
I mean, if it runs and there are no other issues I'd probably go for the scion, but the VW's are always fun cars
Yeah.... it's surprisingly hard to choose
I think the Golf GTI is just too much fun to pass up
Yeah, go with the Golf
i cant speak for the tc since they were never release here but the golf is a solid choice
for scion i'd only take the FRS, otherwise i'm not a fan, really
dang, i think someone already bought it...
which one? golf? 😦
But... it's automatic 😦
god i love golf gti's
not of fan of the old MK 2-4's
i can see the appeal but i like the newer ones
fair enough. and i don't know if i'd still buy one if it was auto. kinda infringes on the whole fun thing i was talking about...
yeah screw auto for a gti
EXCATLY
you drive a gti for fun, smh
get one of these https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4568/38416972802_2e2e656edb_k.jpg

Yeah

looking for a 1996 na
LOL
they smol af dou
lol what
I can fit about $120 worth of groceries in it
who knew bot hates mazdas?
LOL
they still smol
Not the NB?
i would like an na... because pop-up headlights
I recommend it 😃
have you looked at any subarus?
subie lul
cheap, fun, and slightly practical
there are multiple wrx sedans and wagons near me
I was actually originally looking for a 2.5 RS
impreza ?
have you looked at the spec b liberty
And I almost got a 2004 WRX Wagon EJ25T for $2,200, but the dealer sold it at auction
why does the 2.5rs look like a r34
because... japan?
lol
I mean, it had 204,000 miles and was obviously in need of some seals on the engine and wheel hubs, but it would've been extremely fun and practical
Probably the headlights but that's it
isnt mitsu making new line of evos
not that i know of
speaking of lancers
looks like an suv
what about a 2009 lancer ralliart?
This is my friend's 1998 2.5 RS https://scontent-lga3-1.cdninstagram.com/t51.2885-15/e35/22637693_294269370977264_1400232507558854656_n.jpg
arent they auto only?
how much did the build cost him in total
Hmmm
I think it was about $4,000 for the car and then at least $5,000 in mods, including completely re-sprayed and new body panels, wheels, suspension, and some other maitenance items.
It used to be an auto, but the previous owner was going to turn it into a rally car and manual swapped it.
Nope, it was a clean title.
manual
what!
2004
holy crap
in cali
oh its in cali
which is across the country from me 😭
That's a pretty good price.
Oh wow, they give you the VIN too, so you can CARFAX it
salvaged ones at least
i mean, i did travel cross country during the summer, so i don't see why i can't do it again
its on carfax..
Yeah
Mine literally didn't have a carfax record at all, I got it with 102,300 miles
if u can find one close to me for 5k and under 130k miles
and manual
i'd be happy
i doubt it
lol
what city are you near?
i mean, it's still like 1 and half years until i have enough to buy any car soooooo.
I thought it was Atlanta, Ukraine
do you prefer the blob eye, or any 2.5 Impreza?
idc
Here's a, what seems like bug eye that was turned into an STi https://atlanta.craigslist.org/nat/cto/d/subaru-wrx-4500-or-obo/6360941286.html
dat 200k dou
$4,500 OBO, but you can certainly bargain on the price lol.
i need dis shitbucket to last me through college lul
Well, if you have a little bit of motivation and some basic tools, it'll probably go a long way.
screw that
I think it's worth a test-drive
where even is this
It's also OBO, so you can certainly hit him with "It's been swapped and it has nearly 200,000 miles, so I'll start with $3,200.
oof 2 hour drive
imma look back at g35's again
I mean, 2 hours to go see a car that is probably crappy, I understand, but if it were me I'd totally check that out
meh
G35s are alright, but 95% of the ones in New York are slammed POSs on stock wheels and no exhaust that are automatic
So I don't really like the sight of them
There are some that look nice and are taken care of though.
new york lol
Basically lol
When I got my Miata, it was on the brink of being riced to shit, but I saved it... until New York got to it, lol
ayy
e92 isn't too bad
they need a turbo replacement at around 60k miles and high preasure fuel pump
apart from that theyre pretty solid
but they burn oil
youd need to change some seals in the engine to stop it so not many people do it
but theyre good cars overall imo
Hmm, thanks
no worries

Anyone else love the look of the e30 BMWs from the 90s?
Anyone drive a volkswagen passat?
i'm guessing that you do
a 1990 volkswagen passat GT
But im thinking getting a better motor for it. (a VR6) if can find one!
the vr6 is really interesting
it has it's issues but a 6 cylinder in not much more space than 4 is pretty cool
yup, its going to be fun putting a vr6(not bigger than the 4 cylinder) but its going to be expensive AF.
But if i look at the newer passats their only 4 cylinder....
the power per liter of modern engines is much higher than the power per liter of old engines

Do you have snow tires
Have fun driving that thing in the snow then mate
It was a few weeks ago, back to the lower mainland drizzle
You guys have probably already heard/seen of the new Tesla Roadster.
Thoughts of the claimed 0-60 mph time for 1.9 seconds?
I honestly don't think that it will be able to reach that number. That it's just a number they picked from thin air to create hype.
electricity is impressive
But getting a time of below 2 seconds with normal street tires breaks the laws of physics.
it wont do that but the tourqe on it might just be fun for burnouts
Depends on how they program the car, and if you can lock out the motors for the front wheels.
lol ive had my little front wheel drive do burnouts and its only got 49 hp
I can see them getting under 2 second 0-60 times with good street tires and a good awd system
Close up video of Tesla Roadster launching from zero https://t.co/6FziM9M755

12201
I'm still skeptical. I want to know what kind of tires they will be using on their car.
lol you know the kind only they can fit and cost a few grand each
its why i drive a crud box and a 4x4
tires are cheap for a full set
A full set of high performance tires for something like the new McLaren 720S is maybe $1,500+ for the set. Possibly higher.
All depending on where you get them, etc.
Tire Rack says almost $1,800
yikes i can get like 4 sets of muddies for less
I was just looking at the Pirelli Trofeo R tire. Which is very close to a proper track tire.
thats still stupid expensive for some rubber
heck i can get 3 ford lasers and have change
slammed dude
it's because of the downforce bro
yeah lel
he has the csl trunk lid and the front splitter things
it's not an actual csl tho
has it got nittos bro
xd
got some hoosiers for the track day bro
wait they aren't t1s
they are some sort of slicks XD
i forgot which one but he said they are a little better than nt01's but last a little less
when he is dialing in a car he gets nt01s then later when the car is all setup he gets those ne wones
there were a bunch of other cool cars there, a couple s2k's, evo 8, 2 570s' a 488 with a loud ass exaust and splitter and diffuser

my wonderful ride - 94 Jeep Grand V8
Any early 2000's mazda 3 owners around here?
@tribal pulsar , isn't it 8.9 seconds for 1/4 mile though? 😛
Anything under 11 is ridiculous on open roads, so yeah 😄
At least in Estonia you are required to have roll cage installed when you get sub 11 (or maybe it was 10.5)
what does the dodge demon do again?
for drag races
So one could not race in Tesla Roadster 2020 (I would LOVE if they named it that so Linus could have one of those epic rants about naming schemes) in official drag races in Estonia.

That car is incredible, an electric sports car? The BMW i8 is close, but it’s hybrid so yea
@old iron we used to have the generation after yours, with the v8
@dire fiber they're awesome but cheap vehicles aren't they. They'll go where ever you wanna go (provided there's no tree in the way) and the 318 engine is one of the most long lasting engines out there
The 4.7 was great until you overheated it

ever seen a 27 year old sticker?
Someone is a really big Cal fan
Any love for the ecoboost?
yeah!
Woot! This replaced the 1998 Ram 1500 in the background. One heck of an upgrade.
Nice. i like the 90's Ram's more than the 90's Ford's
Im still rocking a 17 year old honda accord
well over 100,000 miles but it still drives amazing
found my channel owo
lol
just driving my humble 2015 VW Golf
how to store your spare
No headrests?
not on the back seats
it doesn't look like there are any on the front either
your car?
so far im the only one with that car ive seen
yep im the only one thats posted about it
you heard of mighty car mods?
the recent nissan wasn't very interesting but most of the stuff they do is good
A music video from the episode: "Budget Bog Dent Repair" - Season 5 Ep. 6 Released: 04/04/13
ah yes
now go find the falling for marty vid and find what the track is
also the eletric space wizard is refrenced in the eletric car build
yeah
For those who watch MotorTrend, what did you think about Jason Cammisa leaving?
Kinda sad tbh
I really warmed up to him even though he replaced Carlos Lago, who is still my fav so far
But they scored big by having Jethro as well
So all in all, it’s cool
What happened to Cammisa tho?
JASON LEFT? D:
When your parents get you a Z3 instead of a 917LH or Stratos...
Didn't Edzel get a BMW Z3 (96-98) something like 5 years ago?
Yeah, I'm not super into cars, but got a good deal on a "classic" so I took it.
ill just leave my drink here she will be good
@pallid sky 😦
what @forest cedar
yeah 😦
He was funsies
oh damn there's a cars chat
can we talk about how sad it is that there's no MT Alfa Quadrifoglio in the USA
can we talk about how amazing rotary engines are?
No. They leak, are unreliable and burn a ton of fuel
But they also have a great hp per litre ratooi
Boi
Rotation is the way to go
I heard it from this ytubers
So pretty sure its tru
@dire fiber not really but both muscle and tuners get upset when the neon prevails 😉
Can we talk about how awesome and good looking VW Golf MK 4's still are for today's standards
The mark 4 has ages better than the 3 or 5 but I still prefer the first two generations
purty 👀
@fathom socket holy shit, with TEs as well
Is the Tesla Roadster the fastest car in the world? What is the fastest 0-60 time possible? https://youtu.be/nAvIVGGhEis Subscribe for new videos every Wedne...
im waiting for that guy to make a video and be like "well shit i donno how its done" haha
I disliked all of the people jumping on the Tesla train going "IT ARE TEH FASTEST CUUR. 1.9 TO 60!!!"
I liked that Jason went out and said "They are all claims. And the car isn't actually out yet"
So you don't like that I jumped on and did this
@earnest turret Eh. I don't think that I would personally want a $250k electric sports car. You probably won't be able to do any track work or anything with it without the batteries getting picky about how you drive it.
And they scheduled its release for 2020. Which we will see if they can manage.
yea
I think the biggest thing for electric cars is their lack of character?
Personally as someone who likes Tesla, it makes no sense to me why they are announcing two new cars when they can't even produce the car that most people are looking to buy and want to buy
They have that massive torque that hits you in the gut, and that quickly accelerates your car.
@civic spoke what do you mean by lack of charecter?
They don't have an engine that produces sound, drama, etc.
*character
Their whole spiel is as I said, massive torque that hits you in the gut. And that's about it.
It's a love it or hate it
I can appreciate electric cars for what they honestly are best at.
Which is basically as a daily driver.
Commuter car, mainly.
You can't appreciate it until you own one
The quiet nature of the car, especially once you get double pane windows, is something I love
...and wouldn't go back to
I'm pretty sure that I would love it as well. It's the perfect commuter car to/from work, etc.
But I don't think that I would ever consider one if I wanted to drive on the backroads, or if I frequently took roadtrips. Since there would have to be so much more planning involved.
The truck they also announced is also kinda "Ehh" from some view points.
It will be a truck that will just drive to/from ports or warehouses, to the stores.
And the whole "You charge it in 30 minutes when you have to take a break anyways! No need to sit around idle while you fill up your normal truck"
That doesn't work.
What do you mean "it doesn't work"
Since the drivers go around checking their truck while they are filling up.
Checking the tires, lamps, windshield, etc.
While they are charging it, they can do the same
But Elon made it sound like that you could just take your break then. Is what I'm saying.
He made it sound as if they were just sitting around idle while they were filling up.
And are they really going to go with a center driving position as well?
Give the trucker more blindspots than he already has?
urgh i hope they dont truckers in aus are already stupid as is in qld
trying to merg onto the highway at 120km/h? here let me do 140 and stop you
The Tesla truck can really only be used for somewhat local deliveries.
wont stop them trying with the brisbane port to highway runs
i already hate getting onto the highway as a passenger
Trucks are limited to, uhh, 90 kmh over here?
doesnt stop them from doing car speeds
the cops ping the cars anyways and not truckies
I think they even restrict them over here. So you won't be able to go above ~90 kmh.
And I looked it up, it's 80~90 kmh.
That their maximum speed limit is.
I personally respect truckers. I usually tend to stay out of their way.
i do aswell but not the non responsible ones where i am
49 horse power of NOPE
i also drive this so it takes time to get to 110
I used to drive a small 70 hp diesel car.
idk its still a puttputt machine
dont have a trailer hitch
I wasn't able to make it past 50 kmh going up a hill.
lol i need to get more fuel for it
But anyways. What the Tesla truck will excel at is daily use. The normal day work.
Where they can sit at a port "idling", get their load, and then drive off to a warehouse, etc.
Or from the warehouse to a store.
i still dont like the idea of them unless they have at least 4 diffrent camera's
2 on the mirrors 2 on the trailer
They will NEED to have all of the normal mirrors and such before they are allowed out in the public.
And it's kinda hard with cameras on the trailer.
yea defently but the camera for extra where they cant see if they do a middle seat
Since the trailers won't be Tesla-made.
They will be your generic trailers.
I honestly have no idea why they went with a center seat.
so do what my brothers traffic controll did have a connector wired in so that if not connected it will flash a warning and report the failure
Other than "Hey look, we're cool and different"
yea
Sitting in the center just makes it harder for you to see everything around you.
And I don't really know what I think about those screens either.
never saw them just looking at the front made me hate it
It means that you can't really use the truck at night. And how will it be with glare?
let me guess mounted to the windscreen?
hey look vision obstuctions
ok i call bull's behind
Anyways. I gotta prepare to help out a friend with an oil change.
@dire fiber I agree. My dad has a MK2 GTI in the driveway, that thing looks pretty sweet still. I have a MK4 GTI right next to it. I do wanna get rid of the smoked taillights on mine and switch it for some led stuff, also planning to get me angel eyes headlights. The Mk4 headlights always looked really damn good to me.
How much did they cost? And what tire?
@fathom socket
nyoom
My car.
v8?
4.6L 16 valve SOHC V8
CROWN VICKKK
Had 250hp/186kW when new.
those things are tanks
It's a great car. Just needs an intake manifold right now.
I don't know why I'm laughing so much at an engine that only produces 250 hp from 4.6 liters.
They got 320hp out of the 32 valve, lol.
My car
@willow zealot A Mini going at 65 mph is faster than any other car going 60 mph.
l e l
my mini has a honda k20 vtec in it
wait fr?
That's a nice engine to put into a mini.
lmao yeah
damnn
with about 240bhp
The K20 is tuned over stock?
yeah
my stang doesnt even push that much
Reminds me of the one Mighty Car Mods did 😄
4.0 L V6
my other toy
haha yeah, the bike engined ones are awesome
And, oh, wait. I'm looking at zcars right now.
The car is basically just a tube frame?
busa engine ina kei car
thats how it weighs so little
Zcars are several letters better than k cars
thats how
damn
thyre mini wheels
and ..............
........
headlights are off a real mini
...
thats about it
lol
A whole different car.
I can dig it.
But yeah, the one that Mighty Car Mods did was FF.
I was wondering for a second if you really meant Front-engine/Front-wheel drive. And that yours was RR.
but they are super unreliable
Now I get it after seeing how they do it.
and i drove mine to college for 2years lol
Yeah, the K20 engine makes sense.
the torque is unreal
you can set off in 6th gear if you want
and it will just pull
because of the weight
damn
The Busa engine is insane for the high revs that it has. But it's kinda meh, since it's a lacking in torque.
yeah 1300cc vs 2.0
Got reminded of this car. https://youtu.be/LU4bIsdnbkM?t=45

vtec is dangerous tho
ahhh yes
Vtec. Yo!
tht was a great video and a great car
That sudden increase of torque will get ya.
vfrs are sweet
such a nice sound
its like an extra 80hp instantly
anyone ride bikes here?
Oh, speaking about insane sounding bikes.
I want to, but don't have a license for it or anything.
Tom takes Twysted Throttle's little Kawasaki for a fang! http://www.youtube.com/TwystedThrottle https://www.facebook.com/RidingWithTom https://twitter.com/Ri...
is that a 250?
i know honda made a bike they call a babyblade
thats a 250 and revs over 20k
I'm not sure if that's a 200 or a 250.
Name makes me think 200?
But 200cc is a odd displacement for a bike.
Yeah, it's a 250cc. Had to look it up.
250cc with four cylinders 😄
Hence the insane sound.
haha its like 4moped engines bolted together
i saw a video ages ago on the best engine ever
sooo perfect
Probably easier to explain it as a tiny 600cc engine.
Hah, a 2 stroke. Thing must to scary as hell to drive.
it wasnt in a vehicle when i saw it
pretty sure it was just seperate motors that were made to drive one special made gearbox
Have you heard of the Sub7Up?
still cool AF
haha no i havent
A VW Up that has been tuned and worked over a little bit. 😄
it reminds me of the toyota AygoCrazy
Has like 125 hp to the wheels, and 250 Nm of torque.
I heard that they had plans to put a larger turbo on that Up during the off season now. I wonder if they will do it.
The VW Up is honestly not a bad little car.
I love my GTR
The new VW Up GTI is very similar to the first generation Golf GTI.
thats not my garage btw
I prefer theh previous generation.
but i have met the dude that owns them
R32 for me.
can you buy an upgti?
My own car is just an E46 320i.
i thought it was just a concept thing
I think they have gone on sale with the Up GTI now?
Checking.
I guess it's not actually for sale here.
But I know that they are going to sell it.
they sell little sporty cars in spain i think
The Volkswagen Up is a contender for our Performance Car of the Year 2017, a little GTI that could provide a real UPset against 600bhp-plus Lamborghini's and...
they had the seat ibiza cupraR
That Sub7Up is the car from a rental company near the Nürburgring.
One of the employees drive it.
Just buy a seasonal pass for the Ring and drive until you're out of gas. 😄
joking aside it would be real nice to have as just something to do
some frineds come to visit and you go for a few laps of the ring
The owner of that rental company has some damn nice cars.
i bet
the guy with all the gtrs has a few nice ones lol
my cousin is on his race team
What I love with the owner is just that he actually drives the cars on the track.
And he drives them fairly hard.
he owns a team of BTC
im just browsing his facebook lol
one day
one day we will make it
my ferrari is gonna hover tho
then who will be laughing
well, i gotta sleep
gn all
