Why aren't cars this beautiful anymore?

is it the lust for agressive styling from consumers that's ruining the purity of design or is it safety regulations ie pedestrian safety that's making everything look mid, or downright ugly

jokes on you the A110 gets even more fun without semi slicks.
but even if you decide to run semis on track - which you should - A110 uses tiny tires that are cheap compared to to massive camaro tires. plus they will last much longer because the car is so light

>>28803618
The alpine does handle like a tank. Why do you think it needs cup tires to actually compete with anything while the Camaro doesn’t. You’ll also be spending more money on the frog reliability and the parts will cost far more because it’s “””exotic”””. All things considered, you’ll spend more money on the charger.
>>
>>28803623
LOL.
no point in arguing with you

>>28803621
A cup tire is nearly twice the price of a 245 size summer tire the ss Camaro used, and they last half as long. The Camaro is more fun because it has a manual.

HI ALL! I JUST WANTED TO INTRODUCE MYSELF AND SHARE A PHOTO THAT I TOOK

Four months ago I paid $7500 for a 2013 4-door hatchback Impreza. It's got aids or something because the oil light was on, I changed to 10w30 and it stopped. The check engine light came on, my mechanic says it's a timing code and cleared it. Didn't come back on for months. I got a flat tire, replaced all tires, check engine and dynamic traction control light come on together. I took it to a Subaru dealership and the guy noticed a rapid ticking sound. Instead of fixing anything he just added a quart of oil and told me to drive it to see if the lights would turn off on their own. And he said the motor was going to go at some point and leave me stranded okay bye have a nice day. Tomorrow I'm taking it back to tell them adding oil didn't magically fix my shitbox.

I need a new car. This thread is for everyone who wants advice on choosing.

I have wanted a WRX for a long time. I just got a good job for the first time in my life and will be able to afford it. But I just found out the STI was discontinued and looking at all the recent models is just painful. I live in Massachusetts so I really want AWD. I want something that will make 18 year old girls wanna fuck me. And I want something that is mechanically reliable as fuck. I'm not concerned with high end performance. Some modern conveniences like remote start and heated steering wheel would be nice. I quit driving in 2009 and just started again so these goddamn ipads and rear cameras and in-dash navigation systems seem like stupid annoyances. I could come around to a navigation system. But I saw people getting ads on their screens and said fuck that. I want buttons and knobs goddamn it.

What do you guys recommend? In the parking lot where I work there is a gorgeous WRX in pearlescent white with a big wing on the back. But I'm fucking sick of buying used and getting surprises. I just bought this shitbox and 6 months of use will have cost me 7.5k. It's stupid to gamble like that and pay so much more for a worse car.

every used subie can smell a new owner and the cash in their wallet, idc how much anecdotal evidence you can provide, *any boxer* is inevitable to fail. You could nironically buy a used german car; theyll run you same amount in repairs and maintenance when out of warranty but at least it'll have an interior and badge worth giving a shit about.

>>28802600
The mechanics at the dealership as well as my roommate is telling me I should talk to the small used car lot I bought this from.

I don't know what good could possible come of it. I imagine me saying the car was bad when they sold it to me and them saying sorry no refunds. Do people actually get their money back in situations like this?

Uh
E28 M5, E30 325i, E36 M3 with subframe reinforcement, E39 530i on M-Sport suspension (perfect out of the box and the best sports sedan overall that there is), E46 M3 with subframe reinforcement, LCI E90 M3 Competition or N54 335i (the last amazing 3 Series dynamically), F10 M5 Competition (the last great BMW)
>>
After watching a couple hours of youtube reviews on the wrx and what a piece of overpriced crap they are, I'm considering a Civic. Probably the hybrid sedan. What do you guys think? Is giving up AWD a big deal? I live in MA which is snowy as fuck, hilly and curvy.

Engine braking does not produce any additional friction in the tires to the road surface.
Slowing the wheel rotation as much as possible, without making them skid is ideal, but it doesn't change anything how it's achieved
>>
>>28803238
So instead of braking, you should be braking?
Very constructive
>>
>>28803238
So instead of just braking you should have the engine pulling you forward while the brakes try to stop you?

A lot of "journalists" are unskilled faggot hacks with a big mouth. Remember, they're hired to report to normies what a car is like, not racing drivers reporting to other racing drivers. This is probably the biggest disconnect in cars: everyone thinks they want a race car, but have no fucking clue how awful race cars are on real roads and also how punishing they are for incorrect inputs because race car drivers don't want something that coddles them, they want something that they can overdrive at any time so they can push it right to the ragged edge in any given scenario.

>>28803550
His "rich friend" owned the car AND was driving, Paul was just a passenger.

Tired of the "muh tires" meme. There is no evidence the tire blew out, and even if it did, part of being a good driver is being able to not exceed recoverable limits. You have to assume a tire can blow out at any time and drive accordingly. If blowing a tire will kill you, you're driving too fast for the conditions. Even without blowing tires, even the most expensive and grippiest of tires can lose traction if you encounter water, dust, leaves, dog shit, gravel, grass clippings, road kill, etc., all of which can be on the street around any corner at any time because it's not a closed course race track with race officials monitoring it. If you drive in such a way that an unexpected loss of traction will kill you, you're a shit driver, period, end of story.

I got my wheel bearings done using my dad's equipment but I had a question with the axle nut spec. The service manual called for 80nm (59ftlbs) plus 90°
I already had new axle nuts so I torqued them to 80nm and got a 2ft breaker bar to rotate them the last 90°
The issue is even standing on the breaker bar I couldn't get them past like 70-80°
I'm like 230lbs standing on a 2ft breaker bar and that feels like a LOT of torque for those nuts. I might be overthinking it and I probably won't be taking the wheels apart again for a long time but could putting that much torque on the axle nut crush my new bearings prematurely even if I couldn't quite make the +90° spec?

Also what is the turbo longetivity? I read the fl5 has 25 psi of boost, thats quite high.
Currently daily a ND2 Miata and looking for something bigger to also transport my bicycle and other shit in. It's a tossup between the GR Yaris and the FL5. Thanks to my country's retarded co2 emissions tax laws a new FL5/GR Yaris will cost 95k euros. So I wont be buying any of these new but second hand when they are closing in on the 40k price range in a year or so.

I guess the evaporating oil had a cooling effect on the CM's precat and it freaks out when the engine is hot but the cat isn't hot enough to work fully, so I guess this is a thing that can happen if power steering fluid squirts on the exhaust, but that scared me for a sec.
