And most of the time they crash in to other cars, themselves walking away with minor/no injuries but the people in the other car have injuries for life/death
Ya
It's not fair
I have friends who are on their phone all the time
And it's very uncomfortable riding with them ๐
Yeah, they have become better tho
Nowadays I just tell them, "Tell me what to write, and you keep your focus on driving"
Better
Because I know I can't remove the phone from them completely ๐
I also had a head-on last friday because a women was on her phone
OOF
I have a video of it, w8 ๐
Sheesh

But yeah, people need to stop looking at their phone
While driving
Social media can wait
:/
I really hate it when people do
Tbh fines are not high enough, and I'm saying that in a country with high fines
Well
No matter the fine
I think it's more about people not realizing the consequences of their actions before it's too late
Have you seen the video of the German police officer who confronted people taking pictures of an accident?
Yeah, pretty much that kind of thing is needed for people to realize
Probably they'd still do the same next time
It's sad 
The other day a Volvo XC60 crashed in to a stationary police car at the highway on a blocked lane due to an earlier accident... Guess the cause
Phone
Omg how did you know

Well people are stubborn as hell
Like my friends
I had two friends who were constantly drink and driving
Reeeeeeeeeeeeee
Yeah, it was bad
I got to know it after one of them got arrested and had his license revoked
That's when I got the info
I did call the police once for a drunk driver Fiat 500
And that's also when I lashed out on them
They have stopped doing it since then
Oh damn
Had to use my phone for 2 seconds tho while driving ๐ But that's worth it imho
Unlock > Ok Google, call 112
Had to take a detour but /care
Safety > all
Too bad I was in my parents car without dashcam

Thankfully it was a dutch (southern-dutch) holiday so not many people on the road
Good

๐
My new ride ;D
Nice! Congrats! ๐
Nice ute ๐
Thanks! 2014 model, 58,000km on the clock
๐ฎ ๐ฎ
One of the 3 I own at the moment hahaha
That's pretty good ๐ฎ
Are you a UTE collector? ๐
RHD tho 

haha, nah, I have 2 utes (selling one) and 1 sedan
๐ฎ
This is my other ute (selling this one)
Any particular reason to sell the other one?
The white one replaced it haha
Ah, I meant if there is something wrong with the blue one? ๐
Just outdated, 2009, 171,000km
This is my sedan, and thanks dude!
^+1
Oof I like that one
also a 2014 model, 6700km on the clock
All white (:
Lol 6700km
Yup
Damn
Fresh af
Hardly drive it, it was the last of its model
Plus turbo charged...
Needs more
They run 12PSI stock hahah

There we are

Good old 4.0l inline 6
No boosted V8 
b0000st
Ahh hang on


That's the NA line up/turbo... Whoever would want a ecoboost....
What do you guys think of the new 1 series? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBI8iBOWwHQ
This is the all-new BMW M135i! Itโs the successor to the supremely popular M140i, but with a change from a 3.0-litre six-cylinder turbo to a 2.0-litre four-c...
@civic spoke honestly? I'm sad. ๐
Same.
I really wanted it to be RWD
๐ฆ
And not too fond of the new look
Looks a bit too "bubbly" so to say
Bloated?
Not sure
Yeah, I know what you mean.
Gone is the 6 cylinder, RWD
Yeah
Hol up
Transverse 4 cylinder.
Which is part of the reason for its look.
Ah
I wonder what the horsepower figures are going to be
If it's even remotely close to the A45S AMG

I think the 4 cylinder is rated for just above 300 hp.
I meant for the M135i
The old A45 already had 400 hp
Oh damn
I haven't been up to date then

When the A45 almost has as many horses as a BMW 3 & 4 Series

Oh, wait. Wiki says that it had 376 hp
Still quite a lot for a stock 4-banger
New one gets over 400 hp. With 500 Nm
Sweats
Well, Mercedes have been quite horsepower happy recent years
I like that they have kept raising the horsepower in their cars over the years
The rest feels like they have gotten stuck in time or something
(Now I know that horsepower isn't everything, but it's nice to see progression, so to say)
I don't know why I thought about Dodge when you mentioned getting stuck in time.
Maybe design?
Putting the Hellcat engine in all the cars.
๐
When Audi released the new RS4 and RS5 I was hoping for at least horsepower in the 500+ area
But they stayed in the 450 area like the previous gen ๐ฆ
Meanwhile AMG:

Damn. The Challenger is getting stupid old now.
Is it as bad as the 370Z?
Yeah
But to be fair on Dodge. They have actually came out with a bunch of different engine options and such.
Yeah I guess, they have made some changes at least
Nissan and the 370Z is so out dated as it gets
Like, end it, kill it, it's over
๐
Dodge Charger has a widebody option now as well. 
Oh ya, saw that
quite neat
BUT
One things I have to say about the charger
I really hate the rear lower part of the rear bumper
A bit underwhelming for a high horsepower car
Was expecting something more aggressive
Last generation BMW's were some of the better looking ones.
The M3 Competition package is also ๐
Having a electric car being rain on sounds dangerous

Well gas cars usually don't catch on fire randomly... Tesla's do sometimes ๐
@fathom socket That guy has been on the brakes way too much. Looks like he doesn't have brake regen active???

A Tesla shouldn't have that much brake dust on their rims.
sometimes when i brake
i get a crunchy boy noise
on my drivers front side
but i looked at the pad is thicc
How does the rotor look?
new
like i hit the brakes and as i come to a stop it's crunchy
at low speed
but i took the wheel off and everything looks good
could it be the cv joint
pretty sure my CV joints are fucked. mine makes audible "clunks" or "crunch"es whenever i turn sometimes. not consistent but definitely there.
wouldn't surprise me given the car is 7 years old w/ 145k miles
@fathom socket Raise up the wheel in the air. And jerk around the wheel. There shouldn't be much of any play with the wheel.
I have a clunk in the back but it's just a sway bar linkage has some movement in it. I have the new part just haven't gotten around to installing yet
@fathom socket probably worn bushes
how do i change out the bushing to polyurethane fancy boys 
depends on which part, u might need a press, usually brute force is required ๐
just take it to a mechanic for a check over, its not expensive to replace bushings
well depending on how many need changing
10/10 our explorer is broken again
ford exploder 
Still the doors not locking?
fix or repair daily ๐ค
Doors not locking? Could be a corroded electrical contact
The RR door on my car actually had the opposite problem, it stayed locked and didn't unlock
I cleaned the contacts at the frond end of the door, problem solved
Corrosion on a 2014 Explorer ๐ I hope not
It's intermittent onall the doors
It won't Power lock or unlock
And now the front doors won't lock even if you manually donit
Nice
Just Googled a bit, turns out you're not the only one with that issue. Can't find a fix tho ๐

My car has power lock issues a bit too, but just bc the little plastic part has worn down over thousands of unlocks in the past 20 years
Nowhere near as bad as the explorer though
Ah but that's just the switch in the key fob I reckon?
no, the little plastic part in the door that pushes the switch to locked or unlocked
Cheap and easy fix I just haven't gotten around to
Ah switches like that... Who uses them lol
Lots of Japanese manufacturers
I really hate Nissan.
what for?
2001 Pathfinder. Alternator is in a stupidly annoying spot
ah understandable
@rotund matrix it's under the power steering pump. Lol.
Today I travel up to McLaren Boston to preserve a McLaren MP4-19B Formula 1 race car driven by David Coulthard. The paint is not very thick to conserve weigh...
Alright yall, who is wanting a puzzle to solve
Must be familiar with PATS and fords PCM's as a whole
It goes like this
2000 mustang, auto to manual swap. Auto pcm cant be used because obvs, and I can't just throw the manual pcm in there because its married to the key and instrument cluster.
So there are a couple options
Flash the auto pcm to manual, turning off all shift points and anything related to the auto trans. And disable PATS. About 250ish usd on Ebay and about a weeks worth of time
Take the manual pcm from parts car and disable PATS through tune (75 usd from ebay). But I'm not sure this will work. I have read it will, and have read it wont. I will be using the manual wiring harness for the trans and the pedal assembly yada yada yada
Or I can buy my own tuner, (SCT, Delta force etc etc) but they run about $400 usd. I can get the tunes for PATS disabling and auto trans if I choose that route
All online and for free
This also allows future growth with future upgrades and proper tuning
No one around me can do this (I've checked as far as 3-4 hours out)
So what do yall think
I think manual pcm with PATS delete is the way
Your conclusion is probably the cheapest. Tune doesn't disable PATS then just file a claim and get your money back
I just dont want to lose the money on the pcm and costs of shipping ya know?
Ford isnt sure they can do it but they damn sure want me to make me an appointment for $$$
Stealerships
C8 Corvette Reveal on right now
The point in the front looks like it was stolen from the Lamborghini Reventon
No manual option for the C8
That's a good looking McLaren.
HAH. I said that it looked like a McLaren also.
Makes sense, I made the same joke in the RCR Discord.
But really. Not a bad car for the price. It seems.
Looks like a GTA car more than anything, to me at least lol
Gotta agree with the McLaren comment, really does look like one.
And I have to say, although I kinda like it, there is something on it that just puts me off a bit.
I think it might be the proportions and the shape of the car, not sure though. ๐
The AC controls, etc look so out of place.
Just a damn long strip with all the buttons.
People: ThE sUpRa Is NoT a SuPrA aNyMoRe ItS a BmW
The same people: Wow the new Corvette is cool
Tbh the new Corvette is less of a Corvette than the Supra is a Supra.. changing the Corvette from front-engined to mid-engined while the Supra is still front-engined RWD 3.0TT, but hey who am I ๐
I mean. I don't honestly mind the new Supra.
Wasn't towards you... Just people in general ๐
Tbh the Corvette... Looks strange to me, front-end kinda looks like a F430, other parts look like a McLaren, and the rear is just ugly
Interior is
tho design wise... Not sure if it's practical ๐
I'm the kind of weirdo who would spend the money on one of them thar AMG-powered E-class wagons over one of these.
(not suggesting a sports car should be practical, but those buttons...)
But that's because wagons are cool.
People don't mind the Corvette as much because it's still made by the same people. And it going mid-engine was something that had to happen.
Wagons 
The C7 couldn't handle the power it had. At least not with the Z06 and ZR1.
Isn't the SL discontinued?
And the V12 is pretty much just found in the S-Class now.
No, they're still going.
The S and the SL are the last places to find Mercedes V12s.
SL can still be ordered ^^
My favorite car in the world has been discontinued since 2016. Means it's easier to find it used.
Still not sure if I'd rather have one of those or an NG 9-5.
Aston โค
SL65 is still in our price list apparently, but we don't have a configurator anymore. Germany for example has a configurator but only the SL400 and SL500, no AMG
So 
Saab 9-5 NG is cool, but I want the SC
Same here, MK
Those are really โค
That's 9-5.
Reminded me of Matt Farah and his Aston
The Saab 95 is a very, very different car.
I know but typing the - on mobile is meh
Fixed, specially for you
Otherwise you're looking at one of these.
Not that that's a bad thing, the 95 is a cutie.
To be fair, the 9-5 badge is more a 9^5 badge
This car is a bit special ๐
Well yeah, but the manual says 9-5 all over it.
@civic spoke ASTON MARTIN CALL IT THE VANQUISH, WE CALL IT THE VANISH
Nice that Ford Focus stereo in there
Ah yes I've read about those
It was, it just had a pair of paddles attached to it instead of a proper lever.
Automatics breaking, people converting them to manuals
That's why you go through the windshield every time you change gear.
As opposed to the automatic the DB9's paddles are attached to.
Computer controlled manual are the worst
Much like automatics, they only work if they're programmed/put together right, and they often aren't.
Getting back to the 95, I just remembered this piece of curiosity exists.
Great TV commercial from 1961 presenting Saab 95!
๐
Your new dream car.
Saab ads of the time were something special. Horrible instances exist of them airing the standard Swedish ad with very, very poor English dubbing.
Computer controlled manuals is basically the only thing you can buy for trucks these days.
Or if I should call them semi's/lorries.
Found one of the badly dubbed ones.
Take a look at this lovely commercial made in 1960 of the Saab 96! This Saab 96 is loaded with new features as front wheel drive, 23% bigger booth, wrap arou...
Fine because trucks often have 12 gears or there abouts.
And I always think of this commercial. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBzOdru3kNo
There wasn't a good quality version on youtube. This is still not great but better at least. Amazing ad for sure, possibly the best car ad I've seen! Song is...
Gives me goose bumps.
That's the big cry for help, just a little too late.
That 96 is very badly dubbed indeed xD
BioPower was E85 no?
Yeah.
It is, yeah
Now I know I've linked this in here before, but this place likes to move pretty fast.
Wasn't the 900 Turbo the fastest accelrating car on the freeway?
Like from 30-60 mph or something like that
It was up there, yeah.
Turbo Turbo
Saab maintained that kind of figure fairly consistently.
My 9-5 Aero, for instance, outstrips 911 Turbos from 40-70.
So Porsche themselves claim.
(Or at least they did in 2003, when my 9-5 Aero was new.)
The B235R engine of the 9-5 Aero was capable of providing immense torque and, in terms of acceleration, outperformed the contemporary Porsche 911 Turbo from 40-90ย mph.
According to Wikipedia
And apparently, according to Clarkson.
Jeremy Clarkson reviews Saab 9-5 HOT Aero and races it against a British Aerospace Sea Harrier FA2 jet fighter. Jeremy claims the 9-5 Aero will outrun a Pors...
Oh, it was originally with the Saab 9000 Aero. So basically the 9-5
But I read up on it some more. I think it was done in 5th gear.
Instead of starting from the ideal gear.
The point is, Saab historically excels in mid-range performance.
The weight and the turbo lag means getting up from a standstill is difficult.
I can't really call it a fair test. tbh. But Saab still kicked some butt with its low/mid-end grunt.
It certainly does me good in this dreary college town full of idiots in SN95s racing anything that blinks.
The fact that it can muster this kind of performance at all is the most astounding part, especially when accounting for the fact that it weighs 3500 lbs and is driven by the front wheels.
This has nothing to do with anything, but I saw it at the bank the other day.
Man that line of button got me facked up
It's not intuitive at all with that design
Passenger has to reach up, while the driver has to reach backwards?
Even if it's backwards, it's not a good system

Bottom is driver probably... But yeah wierd placement
Yeah it's super awkward looking
Yeah, even more awkward for the passenger.
Has to reach forward each time one wants increase and decrease the temperature.

@stoic ledge we had both the suzuki version, the Geo Metro and the Chevy Prizm
@indigo coral Chevrolet Prizm? I think you mean Chevrolet Sprint. Prizm was a Toyota Corolla iirc.
Funny to see (or actually, awfull) to see it had such many variants: Suzuki Swift/Cultus/..., Subaru Justy, Geo Metro, Chevy Sprint, Pontiac Firefly... All the same shitty car ๐
Yes they are
So um, this a good first vehicle? It's a 2010 Dodge Ram 1500.
depends are you running out to buy it, or do you already own it/get it for cheap? ๐
lucky me I didn't have to pay for it but my dad does and it cost about $13,000 for it with 150,000 miles on it.
Also, *this fucker guzzles gas like it's nothing. Prpbably cause it has a V8 HEMI engine in it.
throw it away and do not look back
Do not buy anything dodge
This is coming from a dodge owner
Get out while you still can
Go buy a shitbox metro, it will give you less problems
Plus you can litterally lift the engine out by hand
How long did you have your truck for?
Also, I'm not very strong so I highly doubt I could lift the engine out by hand. And also, did you maintain the truck?
Cause from what I've heard, if you haul a lot of heavy shit in it, that'll lower the lifespan of it.
@tall kiln
I still have it
The body is rusted everywhere
I can stick my hand through the doors
Granted I live in Michigan but
Still
Maintenance is a pain
$60 every week really gets old
I only have it still because it's been in my family since it was new
I'm attached but if I wasnt it would be gone
Just recently the rear leaf spring shackle snapped and it's still not replaced
Mine is a 97 with a 5.9, so granted yours is 13 years newer, but it's the same platform, just different body style
Motor is the same, mine is just bored out a little more
I mean you probably could walk away from in accident in that, but safety ratings were meager. I would rather have something smaller with more spacial awareness for a first vehicle
Go buy a $1000 car and drive it till the wheels fall off and get something new
That's just my $.2
I mean, it was either that or a 2007 Toyota truck don't remember what kind for about 14k with 165k miles. Along with the paint coming off and it smelling like fucking cigarette smoke inside.
Plus I kinda needed a truck anyways and that was the cheapest and best one I could get for under $15,000
@indigo coral what's your mpg on your V6?
just have a light right foot 
i had a 2001 dodge ram 1500 with the 5.9L v8 magnum
4 barrel carbertur
i got 12 mpg city 12 mpg highway 12 mpg towing
I get about 14 to 18 mpg
Laughs in $7.50/gallon for gas 
I think that I can get like 28-29 mpg in my BMW?
Gas is pretty cheap right now. Only $6.30 a gallon
$6.51 for premium
Depending on the engine/driving style 28 MPG is doable ๐
In Austria gas is cheap, only $5.70 a gallon for regular ๐ฎ
2.2 liter, Six cylinder. ๐
Ez pz to get 28MPG when you drive normal ๐ Most of them get ยฑ25MPG
Christ. Gas was cheap last time I checked my MPG.
13.09 kr/L
Compared to the 15.58 kr/L now.
15.58 kr/L is cheap

That's โฌ1.478/L ๐ฎ
Depending on where you are it's โฌ1.70-1.80/L in ๐ณ๐ฑ 
USA $3.20 USD / Gal
Damn man. Gas here is like $2.50 per galon.
FYI the dutch price is US$7.65 /gal
Just get a boosted board
@flat lantern if you really need a truck look for a 90s Toyota pickup
Not really good for towing but can haul things around in the bed
Toyota so its damn near indestructible
And someone good on gas for a truck
Also can find one under 5k depending on where you're at
Classic Audi parking skillz (the A5)
I keep tally of my fuel economy on every fill-up lol
(happens a lot cause I drive a lot lul)
Same ^^
I was thinking about getting a 90s Toyota pickup but Im not sure if I want a truck or not.
I want to get a quality used vehicle that can be a good budget vehicle while also being something I can learn to work on myself.
@wheat hatch
- Own a Audi
- Don't give a shit
- Done!

It could literally move a full car length (see the Skoda Fabia to it's left) forwards ๐
nice job Audi driver
Traffic laws are different if you own an Audi
You get a higher speed limit and you get to park anywhere you like

No, I didn't see the "I park where I want" lights on, so that's not it
I had to use my park anywhere button the other day
Since we were super late for an appt so I stopped in front to let them out ecksdee

new video is up guys!
This week we Lab Test another dog friendly ride, the 2019 Hyundai Kona Ultimate FWD! #Hyundai #HyundaiKona #Kona Check out Italian Mama's videos, kinda how w...
i teach you how to escape a Kona if you're ever kidnapped in one
At least you don't get to see it from the outside
Kona ๐ Not the Kona Electric tho
Still, Andie = โค
I actually think it looks kinda cool
Personally I think they've really overdone it
Maybe the Audi was there first and everyone parked around the person to make them look like an idiot
I prefer its Kia sister
@fathom socket no, there are wooden barriers marking the parking space ๐
Audi Driver: "What wooden barrier?"
Also: I have to carry around a fork to open the trunk of a Kona from the inside? Aren't US cars mandated to have latch/lever/whatever? ๐ด

No idea what it means
Hmm

i want a kia telluride
oh ๐ฆ
i think the kona photographs really well
Sweet
@fathom socket don't you by any chance have a OBD reader?
Still, 322k miles is a nice achievement 
Nice ๐
I had that once, we went through a tunnel and it made the car get pissy. CEL from something to do with the evap system that hasnt come back in 4k miles since I cleared it

Pressure went funny

Ah BeamNG. Drive
Nice
Just spotted this BMW M4 with Competition Package, Carbon Ceramic brakes and all the M Performance goodies (front splitter, rear spoiler, side skirts, mirrors, M Performance exhaust and diffuser) ๐ฎ
#ParkingIsHard
Those multi-spoke wheels are also something I like about the M cars.
They look great! Although I prefer the ones where the inside is darker, gives the wheels a nice contrast. ๐

Classic BMW parking
Not as bad as the Audi yesterday ๐
I like those Competition wheels, but I get where you're coming from

Anyone here familiar with importing cars to the USA like jdm cars? I've heard mix things about it being illegal to drive and have insured cars that do not meet us road requirements. Like if I bought Japanese version Nissan Silvia S15.
My understanding is that certain cars are deemed illegal due to their designs not meeting USA requirements. However other cars are allowed despite being a right-hand steering vehicle.
Shouldn't they be > 25 years old?
The USA has a 25yr
waiting period for all imported vehicles
depending on the state you live it may never become road legal
@solar river
though this isn't the case for most states
most of the time it will be registered under historic tags
or if your state has no safety or emissions testing
then non specialty plates
There you go that was one of the other things I read about, Dang most of the cars I would like to have and use fall over the 25 year. It has to be over 25 years to be deemed bad correct?
No nvm I'm reading up a gov article on it right now
You can ship the car in pieces to get in the us, but that is a different story
there is some stuff you can do to get around the laws
it isn't worth it though, just wait for 25yrs
I see so it has to be over, well that makes it easier then. I'll look more into it, I've seen some good auctions for some vehicles even if shipping is expensive 10k
though when importing you have to go through a lot of shit
to get it registered after the fact
25 years, goes down to the year and month
Yeah from that vehicle manufacture date
Unless you really got a hole burning full of money and time in your pocket importing isn't a good idea
you could go to japanese classics llc, that website is pretty reliable i'd say. Doug Demuro got his R32 there
Well I can definitely afford one to be my daily driver that I'd love to have. Not all imports are from japan, I see some in other countries even canada. It would be nice to have a classic jdm car
Looks really good, I like the faq questions and the cars they offer at a very reasonable price compared to some japanese auctions sites
Wow some of them even have their original radio/headunit ๐ฎ I always find it funny to see that allmost all JDM cars have aftermarket headunits with big screens or RGB lighting ๐
https://www.japaneseclassics.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/B-22-8.jpg
Like this one, it's a van with a radio that changes colors etc
Our explorer may be a bit troublesome but damn it looks good clean and in the sun

@solar river that is beautiful
Finaly got the front end of my car rebuilt after it met with a wall 
New bumper, bumper reinforcement, front left wing new headlight and headlight mounting.
@fathom socket Skoda?
Yup
which model?
-01 octavia vrs
Stock but I'm thinking about getting a remap
Mapping disels is always a good option imo ๐. Mapping my car is a joke (2006 Hyundai coupe SE 2.0 petrol) needs a piggy back ECU for a 20 bhp gain 
Mines a 1.8T petrol though
Would get around 200bhp after a full exhaust, cold air intake, throttle body and injectors.
Ah it's still a 20/30bhp gain
Every little helps 
What's the milage on it?
250k km
pretty good for a 2001 car
Well considering I paid 3k it wasn't a very bad deal
You got a pretty good deal for it 
Before mapping I'd suggest getting an exhaust for it and a cold air intake 
Intake โฌ100, exhaust โฌ600. If done right more power, better throttle response and a very nice sounding car
Still salty how my mum's C4 Cactus beats my car on a straight
(1.6 disel remapped 0-100km/h in under 8 sec...)
My car is around 8 sec too
Although in corners is feels like a boat 
Mine is 8.5sec ish stock
Car looks faster than it actually is
Even the 2.7l V6 isn't much better, 2 extra cylinders and 700cc for 30bhp and 0-100 8.3 sec
I have no idea how Hyundai managed that 
Love the car and how it handles but acceleration is a joke.
141bhp and the car weighs 1.6t. they made a sport coupe with less than 100bhp/tone 
Also I'd do all those mods unless I wasn't saving money and trying to keep the car as reliable as possible
I don't have a place to do them at either
Intake takes about an hour and can be done anywhere with basic tools, exhaust is a different story.
Sport styled*
Factory riced 
It's still slow af also lol
I was choosing between a SLK200, MR2 W20, MX-5 or the coupรฉ. No regrets chsoing it 
Fun fact all cheaper to insure than a 1.4l tdi polo
Yup
Those are still made?
Or used?
Yeah idk why I thought new...
Whenever I manage to save enough I'm going to get myself a 2006 wrx sti
Be careful they tend to spit rods very often
nice cars appart from that

The Volvo 2.5l S40 engine wouldn't be too shabby with some smaller mods
226bhp stock 
Put a 2jz in it 
NA 2JZ, then turbo it and show all the haters even inferior engines are still superior

Has someone already put a 2jz in a scooby?
Obv they have 
People put 2jz in Ferraris and Bentleys

Toyota would make so much money if the carried on making the 2jz 
Just the engines and sell them by them selves
Nah, make a 3JZ
Well... even if Toyota wanted to make another i6 it wouldn't be a JZ... they could call it a..... KZ? idk
I'm gonna have to dip now cya 

Just spotted the Porsche Taycan ๐
I'll upload some pics later this day, my mom took them ๐ฎ

uhm
those bmw concepts
are
special
i should visit bmw world
i lived all my life so close to it but never went there ๐ค
funfact
It's nice, the museum is too 
my svhool is like 100 meters away of it
๐ฎ
๐ค
Go to it
Shooos away MK
It's his time to shine

Well I think they are, I'll check my laptop later today
i actually haven't seen many of the attractions in munich
Maybe I've backed them up at 4 different places ๐

but seriously those futuristic cars of BMW that design is weird
All futuristic BMWs are weird xD
Uhm looks like they're stored on my Google Drive too ๐ But in a .zip so I can't get to them right now of my phone
i like the idea of recycled materials buuut you still can build nice looking cars with it ๐
Did you know... They wanted the i3 to have glass doors? They cancelled it because
a) heavy
b) people hated it, other people could look into the car
c) people in crashes would have glass everywhere
d) cars are already a small greenhouse
the i3 is oretty good used as carsharing, taxi and company vehicle in munich
then again carsharing is owned by bmw here
๐ค
i think i see more electric minis than i3s in general
they're looking like mini coopers look like
and tbh
minis make more sense to me ๐ค
Last year was the best selling year for the i3 in the Netherlands 
And it looks like they are gonne beat those numbers this year
You know what else is interesting?
High quality pictures taken form the inside of a car by a technologically advanced mom (not)
She got them stable hands
If I were to take pictures
Looks like those UFO pictures where it's all blurry


Lolz xD
And also
For how long will they be testing the Taycan?
Feels like it has been ages now
Well I was driving, she was taking pics while on a mountain roads, with ah "ok" phone (P10 Lite), to they could be worse. The pics from the rear of the Porsche was actually a video, just screenshotted it ๐
And yes, for a long time
Mooom, get the camera!
Just release the thing thing dammit
I want to see the end product

Yes xD
This one is different tho, other license plates started with the region "LB", this one "BB"
๐


Looks like I only have 2015 phone pics on here 
Including this high quality pano photo
Much seemless... not
The pano picture... it's a place where people could pick up their car straight out of the factory
Upload is slow, 3 more pics coming
Mossion Impossible car
Rolls Royce
Yeah that's the second floor... the "dealership" is on the first floor

BMW M6
I don't like that they mde the M6 a 2 door and a 4 door :/
Those are all the BMW Welt pics on my laptop ๐ฎ
Should've stuck to the M5 being 4 door and M6 being 2 door
Yeah I agree

Maybe I have some more pics somewhere... wait ๐

No BMW Welt pics... but I do have some of the BMW Museum ๐
A BMW 8er convertible ๐ฎ To bad they never put it into production
M1
Amazing
Go and visit, a single ticket to the Museum is only โฌ10
Totally worth it imho
BMW Welt is free
@pallid sky take a look
M POWER

@stoic ledge Love the picture with all the 3-series lined up ๐
Especially the white E91 335i

that orange M1 is SWEET
@wheat hatch that E91 335i is the exact same spec as my brothers E91... Only he has a 318i
I should have more pics somewhere... Don't know where xD

The coolest thing is they are all in Mint Condition. only Fluids added in and BOOM driveable.

nitro emotes from other servers, lad
Who needs nitro emotes when you can have free global emotes 
i do
Well same, but I'm poor xD




I mean, that will only stop a theif in the moment.
BLAAAACK! This episode we're working on a motorbike, and we've got just a few hours to modify this Triumph Bonneville T100 Black and get it ready for a TV ap...
This license plate 'mount' made me laugh. ๐
LOL
oof
New 3 series vs Model 3. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpFe8k1vjcg
What's the best-driving compact luxury sedan? That's what Carlos Lago seeks to find out in this quick comparison. Representing tradition, we have a 2019 BMW ...
I'll still take the 3er, thnx (:
I'd also take the 3 series.
Hell, I would even take the 320d. Which has the option for a manual.
I hate the fact that all higher models are auto only 
@stoic ledge it's not like you are going to buy them
Maybe later, as a 4 y/o pre-owned car I would
I have... Several questions...
:ohno:
I too have questions
same

3 drives better than the 3 series, low center of gravity and oodles of torque
(having said that I've driven neither yet, though might get to drive one later this week)
Yet more weight + understeer









always liked the look of older Skodas









< That one is so good.
