Why does it seem like everyone suddenly became too cool to use their turn signals? Every day I see idiots just drifting across lanes like they're asleep, or suddenly jerking to the right at an intersection.It used to be rare to see this and now it seems to be the default behavior.Maybe they're right, maybe society really is eroding...
>>27841523>blocking turn lanessure that's different than the assumptions i was working off of, but driving large cars is probably even more of a contributer to this than leaving space (between cars, not the painted intersection line which i agree is irresponsible).

What is your "driving jacket". For me its an m65 jacket i bought from some surplus store.
>>27838918>>implying all pedal clusters are created equal>tfw want to heel-toe in my shitbox>gas pedal is like two inches lower than the brake >brake pedal travel is quite short>heel-toe is only possible if I slam on the brakes like a retard
>>27839512same goes for my generation of WRX STi, verus eng. makes a throttle pedal spacer that can make it level with the brake pedal and move it closer to the brake pedal/away from the trans hump making it easier to get your foot in there.

Going across country with a modded car.My car has a high flow cat, headers, intake, and an exhaust with a burble tune. It's really not that loud and the burble activates high in the rpm range.If I drove across country, what are the chances of me getting into legal trouble with it? As long as it's not loud and a have a high flow cat should I be fine? It's just a normal Corolla, but the exhaust looks aggressive.
>>27842168ohnoanyway.png
>>27842078>$50k buys my Corolla + all the mods I want, cheaper insurance, cheaper driving costs, better gas mileage and leaves $28kSo you're going to spend, what, 5k on mods? Less? What does that get you? An exhaust and coilovers? A short throw shifter? You could spend all 50k on a base Corolla with mods and you still won't get to where the GR is without a major change like an engine and drivetrain swap.>or I can buy the same car with AWD and one less cylinderIt's not even remotely the same car apart from maybe the interior. >The GR is going to rev hang out the assNo it doesn't, not even remotely. >Everybody is just going to see a Corolla anywaysWho's driving the car, them or you? Are you buying the car to impress others or to have fun yourself? Insisting a base Corolla with an exhaust and intake is funner than a GR is an absolutely ludicrous statement.
>>27841636small displacement NA copers are even worse than "no replacement for displacement" faggots
>>27842078A GR is not a Corolla you fucking retard. That’s like saying a modded 220i is better and cheaper than an M2. Poorfag cope.
>>27841292Owned a 2020 corolla 6mt for a bit, whatever you do DO NOT aggressively use 1st gear, the wheel hop disconnected my steering rack from the subframe, sold it after Toyota couldn't diagnose it until the 5th visit (was under warranty still, or would have gone elsewhere).Suspension was nice and supple though, which was probably why it hops so bad.
Car payments?Why do so many people have them?What happened to owning your car?
>>27842251>then why is the bank with all its resources and insider trading not just investing the money they loan you?They are you retard, that's what a loan is.
>>27842245>enough liquidity to cover an emergencythat's the fucking savings I'm talking about you retard. if you currently have enough to buy a car in cash and still have plenty saving left over, then good for you, but that's the exception not the norm. however condition 2 still applies anyways. >>27842247>-10% beats +3%if you're this retarded then bogleheading it is the optimal strategy for you.
>>27842281he means the stock market you retardwhy do they give out auto loans for 6% if the S&P 500 is guaranteed to return 7% over the long term?
>>27842431Because banks are fucking huge and need to diversify their income streams differently from a person you dumb faggot
>>27842458wrongI'll give you a hint, why do corporate bonds pay higher interest than equivalent US government bonds?
>>27842158I don't have to be "into" luxobarges or trucks to know whether I like the look of one or not. if I see it and I think it's ugly, I think it's ugly. It doesn't have to be a car. Anish Kapoor's bean looks stupid. I don't need to be into sculptures, Anish Kapoor, or chrome beans to know whether I like it or not.

Does anyone know what these wheels are called on this E36? Did they come as an option originally from BMW?

would you buy this for $30k?
>>27840951fiberglass. general motors running gear. canadian. fuck no easy pass.
>>27840951Fuck noThese pieces of shit are forever under $5k cars
The wiki page is a nonstop laugh riot.It's worth 30 grand to someone somewhere but that isn't me and here.
if i made $25 million a year$30k to someone who makes $25mil annually is the equivalent of $50 to someone who makes $40k per year.
>>27840951God no. It looks loud and uncomfortable as fuck.
What does /o/ make of this?Will you be getting a chinese car?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfcJNx1hqFQ
>>27839783Irrelevant, voting is fake. All your presidents are relatives.
>>27835649Especially when it favors state corporations in China for a few jobs here.
>>27835920Instant torque is hard to give up once you've experienced it, there's basically no mechanical noise or vibration and the battery pack also acts as a huge sound deadener so they are extremely quiet which is great if you're an audiophile. They're heavy pigs but mass also absorbs bumps and vibrations so they ride really nicelyThey're great for daily driving and when you just want to go fast in a straight line.
>>27835293more proof that Trump and his followers are fucking retarded.
>>27835812what soulful car did you drive?

>>27842154>Viscous front LSD >Electronically controlled hybrid center LSD>Cusco type MZ 1 way rear LSD
>>27842207so your car DOES have 3 LSDs, what do you mean cope
>buy my first car lsd>only spins both tires going straight>1 tire fire around corners every single time
Are the Ti Veloce verions of the Giulia any decent or just cope? There are better or just comparable cars in the segment in terms of performance, but with improved creature comforts and reliability.Only thing keeping my attention is the "Ferrari designed" marketing, and the unquantifiable driving dynamics. Am I to believe they designed the Quadrifoglio with an incredible suspension and chassis, and simply swapped the differential and engine or a few other things here and there, and just sold that car for much less?These seem to be going in the mid 20k range all day for some pretty well optioned Q4s, are the "driving dynamics on level with a porche" actually worth it, or is it another bullshit buyer remorse talking point? This thing is in the same segment as the G70 which stomps it by 100hp not to mentioned improved interior.
>>27842195>my full-coverage insurance is about $180 a monthThat is what I'm currently spending on two vehicles, being the family car and my dated daily. >$50 a week on fuelWhat I'm currently spending on my daily that takes premium. >$100/month on maintenanceI'm confident I can swing that.True its in the 40k range, I'm just somehow in disbelief that this kind of vehicle is now in my price range. Bonkers car. I would say I'm somewhat hesitant as I live in Ann Arbor and we do get snow and salt.How many miles have you put on yours, and would you be able to share any big expenses that surprised or bothered you?
Reading this thread is making me have to take deep breaths and tell myself that I didn't completely fuck up by getting a Mazda6 instead of an Alfa
>>27839870Damn I can't even imagine the amount of copium someone has to be huffing to put their hard earned dollars down on one of these things. It looks basically like a bmw but with a more awkward nose, people think "Italian = exotic" but it really just means indifferent assembly, poor dealer network, expensive parts that are always on backorder.... And for what? So you can drive generic cuckbox #4 and kid yourself that its somehow different?You'd have to be some special kind of stupid and pretty bad with finances to pick one of these things."Golly I wonder why it's so inexpensive?". Don't worry chum, you'll find out.
>>27842297you absolutely fucked up, not even getting a newer platform 3 and sticking with the ancient floppy platform 6
>>27842218>I would say I'm somewhat hesitant as I live in Ann Arbor and we do get snow and saltaluminum suspension, covered aero-friendly underbody, really the only thing to worry about is abrasives kicked up by cars in front of you and that's what PPF is for

>turbo corvette superchargerbros…the Europeans are cucking us…
>>27840325>>27840350>>27840379If you put a turbo kit on the 5.2 v10 from r8/huracan you could easily get in the ballpark of 1k bhp with pump gas and relativaly low boost with no changes to the engine internals. And it almost revvs to 9k rpm (8700 rpm stock)
>>27841146No warranty, $200k+ car and 50k+ turbo kit (installed). It does rev to over 8k but all the turbo kits I know of don't do over 1k hp on 91 octane. They all need 100 octane to go over 1000 hp.Just admit what Chevy did is impressive. It is.
>>27840266If Trump wins he'll appoint someone to cuck the epa>>27841280It kinda is but just wait until the new nissan gtr drops with 1200 hp from the factory with a twin turbo v6With a warranty
Not using turbo is a waste of power directly out of exhaust. And no, it will not have a rocket effect but it could spin the turbo blades.
>>27841310Nissan can't even afford to make a new GTR and if they do it will be 600hp at most non-nismo and the nismo will cost $300,000
