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...
>>27842833Same thing with signaling after braking, like I already had to break idgag which way you turn
>>27843067i just call it the blind spot because that's what everyone understands it as
>>27837933They also stopped using seatbelts. This is a modern phenomenon. Idiots at work buckle them behind the seats on work trucks and ruin the seatbelts for the non-retarded.
>they haven't taken the full size truck pill >they dont know what its like to just turn into people that wont let you mergereclaim your lane, lads. it's yours for the taking.
>>27837933I think they should become a option package so everyone would use them to show off than they brought it.
>From 1 December 2024, all drivers of an ultra high powered vehicle (UHPV) must hold a U class licence.Does any other country have such a licence? Of course it won't be free - 81 bucks for knee-jerk, feel-good, do-nothing bullshit.https://www.mylicence.sa.gov.au/my-ultra-high-powered-vehicle-licencehttps://www.drive.com.au/news/no-ultra-high-performance-licence-vic-nsw-qld/https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-08-20/sa-government-announce-road-safety-reform/101353582
>>27842523I posted the text.>It is an offence to drive an UHPV with a disabled automated intervention system. An automated intervention system is any system that identifies a hazardous condition and responds by overriding the driver’s control of the vehicle. This includes:>anti-lock braking>automated emergency braking>electronic stability control>traction control.>The maximum penalty for this offence is six demerit points. A Court can also issue a maximum penalty of up to $5,000.That's if you get pulled over for speeding and forget to turn the traction control back on, or you are doing obvious burn outs that the TCS would not allow under normal traction control.If you crash it and injure someone it has it's own charges associated with it. But I'm pretty sure if I was doing burnouts in my scat pack it would be pretty obvious I disabled traction control.I do wonder if linelock turning traction control off so I could do a sick burn out would qualify as>>certain driving conditions could necessitate the disabling of an automated intervention system.Also if you didn't know the 6.4l and hellcat chargers have linelock built in for sick burn outs.
>>27843041>linelocker burnout>sickshuddup sepo
>>27835753They made the same mistake we all did and gave women rights. It's all downhill from there.

What Mercedes models from the 70s-90s are not only luxurious but also reliable?
>>27843226diesel better mpg, and with that you'll want a manual so the autotorqueslushbox doesn't eat half of your like 80 horsepower
>>27843228The autobox in my 1985 BMW 5 series is till going strong, so they're not that bad really. Though I can't say how an old Mercedes auto is.
>>27842826None. Those are all 30-50yo cars at this point. None of them will be or stay fully functional, without a moderate level of wrenching, unless you have money to burn on those upcharges for both parts and labor due to the allure and prestige of the 3-pointed star.
>>27842826depends, the 6 cylinder is good but I've seen pics of idiots who used water in the radiator and over time it causes corrosion in the aluminium water passages in the head. 70's had weak rust protection while on the w126 I've seen it not rust even with paint missing in parts and I don't mean hood or boot which can be aluminium. I've seen a few people drive the w123 where I am so must be ok.
>>27843232Do note that Mercedes manuals from the 80s are absolute fucking junk, their automatics might be ancient slushboxes, but they were built to last and could take just about any kind of abuse within reason.Manuals didn't even like winter skids and would shear off the syncro rings with spirited driving.

What are some subtle customization options other than giant stickers everywhere? I’d like some more options but only thing I can think of is a few small stickers and a hanger for my rear mirror. Dash is too small to do anything dumb like the rubber ducks

>>27843164>shitboxStop using that word, that's our word.If every body panel on your car is the EXACT same color than you don't have a shitbox.

>>27835302>perfection>uneligible for 5 stars because the controls are shitpick onePic related, you may not like it but this is what peak automotive form actually looks like (well, true peak would have a manual but this is perfection otherwise).
>>27835458
>>27835484Those blue interiors are horrible and tend to age like milk after the sun does its deed. But yeah, W140 is about as good as it gets. Just not in the version you posted. Pic related, the GOAT W140.
>>27836695We will, thanks to BASED safety bodies doing something right for once. No more 5 stars ratings for iPads on wheels.
>>27838126Looks much worse in real life, that one's a render. In real life you can see the screen borders underneath and more when light shines on it the wrong way.
what's the best classic SUV and why is it the plymouth trailduster? also didn't toyota copy those back lights
>>27842477Squarebody Burb or Blazer. The Bronco was always a girls Blazer and Mopar clearly didn't even try.
>>27843105>Mopar clearly didn't even try.What about jeep gladiator
>>27843137When was the last time you saw one? I've seen less than 5 in my life. If they were good people would have bought them.
>>27842688>>27842704damn it's hard to find a M1009. Blazers for lambo prices are a dime a dozen though
A Ramcharger would have been my second choice after my '81 K-5.
Make it happen, Suzuki
>>27842801Cool as shit, but 900k Euros?
>>27842522I know, I don't get why they can't just stick it on the Iconiq5 or even I30N chassis and call it a day. Fuck even convert the KIA stinger platform to make N74s, sell them for the same price, and watch Nissan never sell a 400z ever again.
>>27839752nah, here's a good comparisonhttps://www.carsized.com/en/cars/compare/nissan-micra-1992-3-door-hatchback-vs-honda-e-2020-5-door-hatchback/it's slightly bigger than an old ass Micra, which means it's pretty small
Will there eventually be "touchscreen delete" kits for 2010s-2020s cars, to be known as second malaise era in a few decades?
>>27841282go buy something made in 2010 at the latest, and learn how to wrench.
>>27842001eee peee gayEventually these fags will say no ice allowed
>>27842008eventually, they might. that doesn't mean you ought to surrender voluntarily. and while we're at it, im fairly optimistic about the far future. EV tech makes cars easier to build, not harder. and ofc it completely removes the whole emissions thing from consideration. im fairly hopeful that 50 years from now, there's going to be DIY EV kits where you can choose your own chassis, suspension, number and hp of motors, etc and put it together yourself, with at most requiring someone certified to connect the orange wires for you.
>>27841834If people hacked the powerplant and more of a model S into a vintage rolls and hid the touchscreen in the boot there can surely be a way to bypass all that shit in the future. It's a matter of incentives.
>>27838612realistically I don't think many will bother, some of the crappiest looking ones are the w140 speedo with the little Casio watch display, no one bothers to replace those. New ones are so integrated people will just get a newer device and plop it over the top. There may even come a time when those TFT displays become retro like with 8 segment displays.>>27838689I think malaise will be up and coming, you are already seeing v8's replaced with 6 cylinders. People in the 70's thought those 70's/80's 4 cylinder shitboxes were pretty cool at the time too.
eeeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeuuuuuuuuuuurrr
>>27841689does that meme of rubbing a stick of deodorant on the belt while it's running work?
>>27842635they make a spray on belt dressing that will silence it, but just replace the belt

Why can’t certain people accept that South Korean cars are legit nowadays?
So Hellcat engines are actually Junk?I talked to a local tuner and he told me those 6.2L in the hellcats are very fragile and easily shit the bed.dude is the go-to tuner in town, probably tunes 15 cars a week.He won't even add boost to them because they blow up so easily.The tunes are all timing and air fuel changes.Apparently if you accidentally put 87 octane gas in a stock hellcat, it'll probably blow up if you push it hard.How did Dodge manage to successfully shill that engine so hard?
>>27833327>Apparently if you accidentally put 87 octane gas in a stock hellcat, it'll probably blow up if you push it hard.if you put the wrong fuel in a car, bad things happen.>He won't even add boost to them because they blow up so easily.the engine's already at the limit. don't be low IQ
>>27843284>if you put the wrong fuel in a car, bad things happen.Yeah maybe 30 years ago. Modern vehicles have octane sensors and will adjust their boost and timing to compensate for the wrong octane fuel. My turbo work van is supposed to run on premium but the company is cheap and makes us run regular fuel in them. They run fine. I've seen people do it on fancy German performance vehicles and it works just fine. You're going to lose power and probably fuel economy but you're not going to damage anything.
>>27843295ok and a hellcat would be fine putzing around town on 87 octane too, what's your point?
>>27843300Nothing bad will happen.
>>27838486It's not reddit spacing if he's not doing it in every line, he simply formatted his post.
