Just spent half an hour flooring it and spinning my tires in 8 inches of snow at every light (I'm aware this is bad practice but I'd already been pissed and having to trudge my shitbox through the snow put me over the edge). Got a burning smell in the cabin at one point, mostly went away when I turned the heat off but I had to open the window to clear it out. How much did I likely fuck my car?
>>28782250shit's fucked m8. expect leaking head and mythical milkshake in the coolant
if only it had a better engine...
>>28781848I assume you're talking about Richard Hammond's review on Top Gear. He was referring to the profile.
>>28781848Reminder that mutts are fucking idiots.
>>28781942>t. seething half blind yuropeon
>>28781848It's the lovechild of a ferrari 360 and a mitsubishi eclipse
>>28781401someday I wanna get one of these to fuck around in
Evo magazine's car of the year
>>28778659They set it up to understeer to save the driver, the weight balance would make it inherently oversteering.Now they have 4 wheel steering they can control oversteer without adding understeer.
>>28778392The last good Lambo was the latest Countach.
>>28782033Going past all other critiques in this thread, the style of Italian cars is just so low class, don't you think? As opposed to Jaguar prior to Ford takeover, now that was a brand with tastes, a car you wouldn't feel self-conscious taking anywhere. I can't help but look down on people who enjoy Lamborghini.
>>28782036You sound low test, you're not the target customer
>>28782033You mean the one that everyone hated?
Who has the coolest escorts for their leaders and dignitaries?
>>28780396>lameass plastic box with wheelsThis ain't it chief
>>28781786There's a few governments that run Escalades, South Korea & Turkey afaik.Jeep did have a factory armored grand Cherokee too.
>>28780396Chevrolets are too trashy for a head of state
sunshine special just sounds comfy.also despite one assassination attempt FDR would keep waving to people while standing through its roof
>>28782259Convertible state cars are a mistake.
If someone made an EV that is just 4 wheels, batteries, engine, body panels and maybe A/C, I'd buy it. But they don't make 'em like that, every EV is crammed chock full of techy garbage from muh future, even budget chink stuff is more smartphone than car. Why can't we have an EV with nothing but the bits that make it go? I'd buy one. I'd buy five, for the price of one Tesla.
>>28772794Is it really that hard to not touch the screen?
>>28772891This would go unfathomably hard with the "First in Flight" plate; I can't believe he didn't pick that one.
>>28772902I enjoy zoning out while driving. It is relaxing. I don't need a car beeping at me all the time like a tesla does.
>>28772794its all tech tho
>>28782193When does a Tesla beep that would interrupt your driving?
Nissan could be saved if they brought back a fast sexy hybrid minivan with a V6. It doesn't even have to be strictly 2 doors - just slick styling.
>>28782092no, it would have a perfect 8 speed torque converter auto and paddle shifters
>this company could be saved if they brought back this super autistic and incredibly niche market failure I likeThe fucking hubris of people on this board
>>28782192it's not autistic!people often have large families and need to carry them around in comfort
>>28779446>engine is named F4RTAHAHAHAHAHA
>>28779396Nissan had the best concept cars, Nissan had the NSX before NSX
The base model killer.

>raging at OP over a car he doesn't even own>>28781544>getting defensive over a car you don't even own
>>28781819>auto only fake news
>>28781971>>getting defensive over a car you don't even ownI guess I can never correct anyone ever unless I own it.
>>28781817If you showed up in that for “serious track use” your entire day would consist of being overtaken as if you were stood still by various Caterhams, Radicals and so on
>Ford never sold the GT falcon as a ute>every GT ute you see is a replica
>>28781165He worked for a ford dealership so he could buy whatever genuine new old stock parts he needed. he had a bunch of genuine motorcraft XY GT parts that he used when he restored a 1969 mach 1 mustang.
>>28780915>replica
>>28781251Hear people referring to them as 'tribute' cars nowadays
this old dude near me has a stock base model XY. he has to keep it locked in his garage because people kept knocking on his door asking to buy it so they can turn it into a GT and resell it for 100k+
>>28782211man. i just wanna daily one of these, especially if it has a manual
how hard is it to learn a motorbike if i can already drive a manual car. 125-250cc or something
>>28782035If you know how to ride a bicycle and a manual car. Literally 5 minutes.
>>28782035It's very easy to get started, I'd say much easier than a car. But harder to master.Get professional instruction.
If you can ride a bicycle Then you can pretty much hope on low cc automatic bike and goActually going fast and not dying is another matter entirely You will soon realized that going too fast, sudden braking can get you hurt faster than you would in a car dusty road can get you killed if you are not used and be mindful of it
>>28782035Tbqhfam there is a learner bike thread thats perfect for you. The trick is to turn left if younwant to go right, and right if you want to go left
What happened to Korean design? This shit looks like it's angry at existing
>>28782118
>>28782145Yeah that front end is a mess.
>>28781316>What happened to Korean design?they never had design to begin with. Its only recently they started making these new age machines and marketing them with finance schemes to the financially struggling. They are gutless cars that are meant to emulate wealthy exterior looks. Its trying its best to be an Audi/VW.
>>28782171They are the new VW. Kia does everything better and cheaper than VW these days. No point buying expensive German cars in 2025 unless it's BMW.
>>28781507>Sleek>WagonThis has to be bait

America is fucking humongous. How the fuck do people take these full country treks? Just from one state to another is 5 hours.
>>28782216wdym how? all they have to do is drive in a straight line and get gas now and again

Why do people keep buying Tundras despite all the recalls (pic related)?
Having driven modern Toyotas as rental cars (Tacoma, Corolla, Rav4) all three feel like exactly the same vehicle with varying levels of lift kit, with uncomfortable interiors, and shit driving feel. Was Toyota always just a meme?
>>28775645*teleports GM lifters behind you*>nothing personal kid
>>28782150Yeah pretty much. Corollas were always miserable but reliable econoboxes. Camrys were always slightly larger but miserable and reliable econoboxes. Tacoma's were always miserable to drive but reliable. Tundra's were miserable to drive but reliable. Now things are still miserable but you don't get the reliability anymore.
>>28782150Ivthink their hybrid driveline is truly the most soulless abomination ever conceived.
Goyota is loved by the low iq and browns. People actually have the impression that they never break, that you can put poo instead of oil in the engine and that parts are free.
Do these work? I need to add a gauge for oil pressure and temperature to my S197 and was looking for a simple mod. Do these hurt oil flow/pressure significantly?
>>28779700>and I did NOT like what I foundAnd what did you find, retard? The don't cause any problems. And how do you think oil filter relocations work?Plus maybe OP wants to keep the functionality of the OEM pressure sensor, using the sandwich plate specifically for pressure/temp for additional gauges.
>>28779700>>28780688>>28779648ECU will throw a light and no, there is no easy way to disable that or bypass it. Even Foreskin can't do much. Not to mention its in annoying spot.>>28780704That I may be, but I'm learning. Shouldn't put someone down for that.>>28780406Yea I made sure to get something reputable and reviewed. Same reasons as you.
>>28779174It will be OKAY
>>28779174>s197 Who cares. Even if it blew the motor it’d be doing you a favor
>>28779174>install >drive it for 10 minutes and keep an eye on oil pressure >check if its leaking ezpz dont use saas shit tho
