Is there a worse name for an engine than Mitsubishi's "Mild Hybrid Engine"? It's worse than the EcoBoost.
>>28970606holy retard
"Mild Hybrid" is just a way to greenwash/upsell functionalities which should be standard in ICE cars, namely 48-volt systems, electric acceleration assist and full electric AC.
>>28970489i have driven a c200 with a 1.5L mild hybrid engine and milage was horrible. i guess hybrid is there to circumvent some commiefornia issues
>>28970617Keep coping. So far we've seen>actually if your mileage doesn't suck you suck at driving!>actually the test was rigged! and it was a rental!>actually being absurdly heavy is a good thing! I look forward to your next bizarre cope response>>28970660It's probably more like "we have to stay on top of this electric shit or we're toast", Mitsubishi has been lagging on this and they need to do something even if it's not "best in class" or even average
>>28970267>new manual hybrids inbound
Is there any benefit to getting a 4WD truck over RWD if all I want to do is larp?
>>28969886>t. Thinks public roads are his own personal racetrack and brags about 0-60 times and skidpad numbers on something he drives to a McJob.My 400 pound RanchHand bumper will total your Miata and footage from my dash cam will prove the accident was your fault for weaving in&out of traffic so your claim will be denied, you'll get your license revoked AND ill sue your inaurance to repaint my bumper which will cause your rates to go up.Thanks for playing.
>>28966982Depends on where you live. It you are in a snowy climate, get the 4WD. If you are a homo and live in California, then the RWD is good enough.
>>28969905That's the larp
>>28970458what is, reddit thinking others care about them?
>>28968087Unironically yes. Get a sedan
I would love to own an exclusive powerful American muscle car such as the Lebaron. But as a Europoor, I couldn't possibly afford it, nor could I handle its immense power.
>>28970505It’s extremely different. Like he said just google up some EU driving laws.In my fine US state there are no inspections of any kind and people run catless. If they tried making it so only the newest cars could drive in the fancy areas around here, there would be a race riot.
>>28970526Weird because there's no limitations for me to enter the city centers either even though I do live in an EU country.I'm driving catless too and my car passes the bi yearly inspections without a problem, albeit admittedly it's been sitting in the shop to be saved from the rust jew.That being said I don't want to even go to the city centers out of principle because big cities are a pain to drive through and I hate cities in general.
>>28970534>Weird because there's no limitations for me to enter the city centers either even though I do live in an EU countryNo point arguing with them. They don't understand many of these are dead laws in a lot of EU countries. There's a green zone in my country's capital and nobody gives a shit despite there being cameras supposedly tracking who drives in and out.
>>28970566We don't even have green zones here. Only thing we have is the mandatory vehicle inspections which to be completely honest I'm not against. It's because of those you still see KE70 Corollas and old coal sledge mercs on the road.
>>28970570We also have mandatory yearly inspections for anything older than 3 years I believe and I'm not against this either. It gets rid of the most pathological shitboxes. It's not 100% foolproof but it's better than no inspections at all.
Why does it look so good?Why would I rather have this than a ferrari?
>>28970130>Why would I rather have this than a ferrari?Maybe you're a yota fangirl, or it's just that ferrari doesn't make anything good looking now.
>>28970130the second Japanese golden age is near
>>28970130>2013 called, they want their everything backOverdone but still better than the ferrari electric razor, if for the sole reason that it doesn't use the black side skirts of deception
>>28970175Not that guy, but the first time i saw the 2nd gen nsx in person it took my breathe away. Very sexy car in person.
>>28970130Lol look at this old busted ass shoe
>breakdown cover doesn't cover a collision
>>28970426wat
how the fuck did mazda and subaru make it to 2026 but izusu and suzuki an herod themselves in the us?
>>28969295It's 2am and I'm wated but I wanna yo bring back real trucks for dirt cheap and no tech.safety is gay and should not dictate cost.
>>28970228Forgot to add that the new car dealerships in the destination countries aren't really losing money because the warranties get transferred and people service their imports at the dealership which is pure profit.
>>28970228new domestic japanese built cars in japan are dirt cheap. new imports to japan are expensive as all shit because of the exchange rate. a new base model corvette STARTS at the equivalent of 100k USD in japan, and for the higher trims you're looking at 200k in USD.
>>28969421Lets forget the previous 40+ years where the ford ranger, courier i n ROW markets were all badged Mazda B series. They simply got too poor to keep doing it
Suzuki is the 2nd bestselling brand in Japan.
>Ferrari is now outsourcing design to consumer electronics slop designers>This is what four overworked middle aged inbred Japanese wagies who have never left their state came up with in two weeksJDMbros, are we back? Are we seeing the inflation of the next Japanese bubble?
>>28970340the GR GT isnt an affordable car for 99% of the population, so no, JDM is not back. all jap cars have the JDM tax now, and the appeal of them being cheap is out of the window (CTR, integra type S, GRC, etc..)
>>28970340FUCK OFF WITH THIS CLOWN SHOE, SHILL
>>28970379it looks cool.
>>28970340>consumer electronics slopFirst thing I do with my time machine is kill steve jobs in 1995
>>28970358I can call them both pedos. I can call everyone that went to epstiens island a pedo. I can call Muslims pedos. I can call japs pedos. Also I'm not from the UK.
ITT: We build a car one panel at a time using parts from existing cars. You can stretch and resize your parts however you want. I'll start. Here's the front bumper of a mazda cx-5.
Body panel off a '59 Coupe De Ville. Because what kind of car doesn't have rocket fins? Crap ones, that's what.

Cope and seethe.
>engine in the front cringe
>>28970195gee who would have thought an engine that already makes the specific power goals of most high dollar NA builds doesn't have a ton of head room for tuning.
>>28970195The engine is well known for reliably taking lots of boost and making big power.
>i'm a real car enthusiast but ONLY if it makes a billion gazillion hp!!!!!ls swap retards needs to be gatekept
>>28967593My god, why would you do that? I mean, the K series is a nice engine for a 4-banger and all, but it makes no sense to replace an LS with one. You're going to be way down on torque for not a whole lot in weight reduction once you factor in the weight of the turbo kit and intercooler.
are these worth a shit? my gf needs a new car. the requirements are basically:>cheap>reliable>compact cuckover with awdi'm seeing several 2022/2023 konas with <60k miles for $18-20k with the factory CPO powertrain warranty (10 years or 100k miles.)
>>28966690What a horrendous looking car. Its like it was designed by early AI image generation that produced nothing but distorted hellscapes.
>my GFActually NGMI
>>28969161i'm not giving her any money or cosigning anything.
>>28966690>several 2022/2023 konas with <60k miles for $18-20klmaoooooo
>>28969253provide an alternative. this is our jewish reality.
>I KNOW WHAT I GOT!!!!!!
>>28964474for me, it's diamond racing steelies
>>28968229You'll have a wheely hard time trying
>>28965151TY that is a really cool photo. Perfectly timed. You can see at least 7/10 spokes in air and the hub hasn't totally collapsed to the ground yet.
>>28969443don't be wheeldiculous
>>28970021Pick up a wheelgun
Try to find a more beautiful car than the Pagani Zonda C12/C12s. I don't think you will be able to find one.
>>28964177That greed killed the hype around Pagani.
>tfw car design peaked in the 50s
>>28965128It looks like a genuine vintage racecar
For me its the grandtourer/berlinetta with long bonned and short ass.250SWB is probably the prettiest car in my honest opinion.>>28964391pure sex, while i prefer the nose of regular 250, i love the rear of this GTO body more.

Everyone got obsessed with mpg so now we're here in blobland Greedy white antics you know how it go
They're certainly trying.They decided that individualism is bad and the populous must be treated as livestock to be profited off of.They'll let their kids play football, but they won't let you drive a car you like because "it's dangerous."
>>28969391you know you can still buy and drive one of these. in fact they're cheaper than they were when they came out.ps anime is for faggots.
>>28969398>ps anime is for faggots.Not OP, what do you watch? Capeshit and Yellowstone? Anime is a medium, not a genre. I hate Shounen battle stuff and CGDCT stuff, but there's more out there.I do drive one of those. I like women my own age (30s).
Aesthetics are antithetical to jewish beliefs. To them all must be ugly, deformed and a corruption of beauty.
