I got to drive a few M cars at autocross events recently.A newer M3, m4 and a M2.The way BMW tunes the Boost/Throttle curve is absolutely retarded.The power is super non linear.So it's difficult to roll on the gas smoothly to maximize corner exits without immediately wanting to oversteer to an excessive extent.They are way to heavy and have tiny rear tires for the power.Even in 200tw tires, a 295 is easily overwhelmed by the power.Still fast cars, but give one to a novice driver, and they will absolutely spin it.

>>29128220>>29128278Hypoxia is 100% the gentlest way to go. I'm surprised it's not used for the death penalty and they instead opt for a non-doctor to inject them with a cocktail of drugs that may or may not work
>>29128994Just get a large bullet to the brain. Instant black out. Muh humane method tho. No pain, lights out.
>>29128997There's intense fear leading up to shooting yourself, and executing people by firing squad traumatizes the people carrying it out. It's inherently extremely violent. Hypoxia allows you to gently shuffle off this mortal coil without even knowing that it's happening. Go watch some videos on it, past a certain point you just lose all awareness and you're off in la la land.

Does this unit have a soul?
>>29128371I think I've seen her in a Marc Dorcel video
>>29128811Yeah that's a better one. Funnier too. As a reward have a serious answer:>replies to 4 posts>2 of which have nothing to do with the matter at handBesides, the other two posts complain how the cyber aesthetics have fucked the feel of the OG. This new Twingo is just uncanny.t. have nothing against EV and cyber design in and of themselves
>>29128856>2 of which have nothing to do with the matter at handWhich ones? There is like one you could argue isn't and that's the first reply.
Also I don't see the uncanniness at all, I think that's just nostalgia
>>29128694Exactly my thoughts. For a new car it's refreshing. It's by far not on the first Twingo's level but it's alright for what it is and I like seeing it instead of the average gray shitover blob.
Let's get back to the real cars and take a shit on Gas Babys.>2.0 turbo diesel>Manual>Plenty of room for passengers and cargo>Up to American 65MPG Absolutely livid I can't have one here in America. First thing I'd do is delete the emissions , upgrade turbo and injectors and enjoy it with a nice tune. But what is a "Gas Baby"? Gas Babies :>Can't comprehend how compression ignition works>Can't comprehend running waste fluids as fuel>Whine and cry when you talk about an ICE that doesn't utilize sparkplugs>Don't understand that gasoline engines aren't practical or best use case for EVERYTHING vehicle.>Perpetuate myths about alternative fuel technology>Can't comprehend you don't need functional glow plugs or grid heater>Can't comprehend mechanical simplicity of analog injection pumps.

>>29124268>>Don't understand that gasoline engines aren't practical or best use case for EVERYTHING vehicle.But this doesnt apply to diesel?
>>29128066>Audi TDI V10 forced Le Mans to change rules to make sure it stopped winning.>VAG commuter cars well documented to have extreme fuel economy and range.

>>29128105LeMans changed the rules to ban Ford's 427 during the GT winning streak. >Land speed truck record was held by a Dodge Dakota with a cummins engine for almost two decades>Diesel Pickup class.>217mphSo weird that you have to pick an obscure class when Hemi engines had already surpassed 400mph at Bonneville before that truck was built.>fuel mileageAhh, the poorfag cope again.Which doesnt even matter today with diesel prices.
>>29128233The 427 cammer is a fantastic engine. Your rebuttal only reinforces my point.>So weird that you have to pick an obscure class when Hemi engines had already surpassed 400mph at Bonneville before that truck was built.Yeah in a speciality vehicle that's designed to resemble a bullet, not an actual production chassis.>Ahh, the poorfag copeYou're the one coping. I've met a few multi millionaires in my day. Some flash their wealth and got a 50-50 income to debt ratio. Others still daily a '98 Toyota Camry or a 2004 Jetta TDI Wagon
its a niggermobile, perfect for the average mutt
>>29127953It's definitely not a wagon and it's not a SUV. It's not even lifted so it's not even a crossover. It's just a 5000lb hatchback.
>>29127953It's just a crossover, proportions are way off of being a wagon. Just look at those hideous wheel arches eating into the body
Since this is another retarded and wasted thread, let's just talk about something else.What was the last good Cadillac?I stopped taking this brand seriously when they start spelling their cars in nigger.
>>29128674Im thinking about buying the Cadillac IQ 2028 because it was have eyes free super cruise level 3 on freeway.
Small Crossover SUVs are just Hatchbacks with more Ground Clearance. Likewise, Large Crossover SUVs are just Station Wagons with more Ground Clearance.
>>29118205this and the legacy outback are the only respectable crossoversmaybe the panda 4x4 if you count that as a crossover too
>>29114820>Ground Clearance>>29118205Why the fuck are you cucks so concerned with ground clearance??99.9% of your travels shall be upon improved roads.Just stop driving this industry insanity!
>cheap>reliable>5-speed manual>selectable AWD>cheapMiss you Suzuki
>>29128446I'm in a major metro area with some of the richest counties in the country and at least half the roads everywhere are bombed out gaza type shit. A crossover really does handle a normal ass commute or day trip meaningfully better than a sedan here.
>>29128670>I'm in a major metro area with some of the richest counties in the country and at least half the roads everywhere are bombed out gaza type shit.I don't know why we tolerate this shit.It takes 6 years to rebuild a single bridge, too.Fair point.
>>29128551I'm aware those old Ferraris are typically named for their cylinder size, but the Daytona is seemingly the most famous 365 and I'm unsure why. I know someone with one but I'm hesitant to ask. Surely it isn't just media appearances?
>>29128619I seem to recall that there was a top gear episode that featured one, that probably added to the cache and awakened normies to it (first time I heard about it). Other than that my unsupported theory is that rich guys realised they were kind of cheap at one point in comparison to others of that vintage, bought them, and then started inflating the values through hype in order to speculate on them and make money.
>>29128516This show shaped a whole generation. It was so hugely influential in ways no TV or movie can be today.
>>29127693why is it slightly asymmetrical?
>>29128516All previous Ferraris were curvy, Daytona was new and Wedgy. Plus it came out during peak boomer hours so it's been forced down everyone's throats ever since.
I found 2019 1.6 multijet Fiat Tipo for under 6000euros. Should I go for it /sp/? Did any of you have some experience with the car?
>>29127614I have an 2018 wagon 1.6mjet 2 and have shy of 180k kms. The issues I had were 2 sets of glowplugs, apparently they are used a lot for regen purposes, (I snapped one and the tip fell on the cilinder so I had to take it to a shop to have the whole head removed). O2 sensor, leaking water pump. One window elevator and a battery. The rest was just maintenance. The only gripe I have with it is the placement of the filter behind the right front wheel.This being said I so live in the south of europe, no rust/electrical gremlins to report. Parts tend to be cheap as wrllThe interior is kinda cheap with a lot of plastic if you can overlook that it's a solid car
>>29128716i can to pay more, it's just that my family never owned a car, so i don't have much driving experience, hence i'd prefer to drive a cheaper used car that i won't care if it gets scratched or dented too much, instead of buying a new corolla for 20k euros
>>29127629Tipo is pre Stellantis iirc. They get you a wtf here because Fiat only makes the 500.
>>29127614My girlfriend drives 2018 Tipo - the car is slow and boring but other than that, it just works - not a single major failure for over 100k km, cheap to maintain, cheap to repair, new enough to support android auto without an aftermarket chink ipad.
>>29127614Only good if you live in Turkey (they are produced in turkey so literally infinite spare parts). Otherwise you're better off getting a golf or polo around the same price range. Tipos are decent commuters if you regularly maintain them but you might find the interior quality poor.

What would a modern car show even talk about? Which EV has the most range and is the best at driving itself?
>>29128768That show 38 people know about just did a thing about naming Chinese car models.Nobody has the first idea what a Chengyang Happy Dolphin is.
>>29128768Same thing modern car magazines talk about; articles on which old car was best, supercars for arabs and restomods for rich twats
>>29128772All the controls falling comfortably to hand.That isn't going to happen again in your lifetime.
jELOUse?
>>29128439>On a hot day once the door card separated from the door and remained inside the door framelike that top gear episode with the bong cars?
>>29128449Yes exactly like picrel. I was on a date shit was embarrassing. I realised that it was time to grow up in that moment and get a non-shitbox.
>>29128427Those look like ukrainian plates to me, if memory serves, Russians had a small box with the Russians flag, RUS and region code on it.

>>29127070
>>29127059emissions laws mean it is preferable to put a V8 in an SUV than a compact carsame reason why there's no small pick-ups any more
>>29127059The bigger the power the more things need to build around that power. Chassis that doesn't deform under preassure. Brakes that can actually stop the car safely and quickly. Suspensions that can actually handling the force. Wheels that can accomodate the weight and load. Transmission that can survive the torque and power spikes/shocks. Engine bay that can fit the big engine while still providing enough room for maintainance and cooling. All of that translates to weight and size. And we aren't even talking about safety standards or emissions yet.
>>29127059https://engineswapdepot.com/?p=55934Its retarded and i love it.
>>29127059small cars handle better with lightweight engines

Pre-2000 hatchbacks... for some reason
Riddle me this:If an i4, an i6 and a v8 have comparable capacities and rpm ranges why does the v8 need it's sparks replacing more often when each cylinder fires at half the frequency of the i4. And why does the i4 fail sooner than the i6?
>>29125916Each cylinder fires once per two crankshaft rotations. Doesn’t matter if you have 1,4,8, or 16 cylinders. the same rpm means the same number of sparks per cylinder.
>>29125951as the other anon said, they both fire at the same time for improved combustion
>>29126322You are never going to convince anyone of this. note that many distributorless systems fire also on the exhaust stroke because crank position is crank position.
>>29125916Nice try Riddler, it's clear your mechanical acumen is lacking. How about you riddle this for me instead?>V8s have used sequential firing systems for decades from mechanical distributors to coil per plug>Inline 4s and V6s in comparison have used wasted spark setups for decades up to the turn of the 21st millenium>This means sparkplugs are fired more than sequential setups like those on thr V8s>Inline 6s hardly used wasted spark systems, making them last longer than Inline 4s as they don't fire at twice the rate per plug>So if Inline 6s last better, and they use the same firing system than V8s, what else could be contributing to sparkplug failure?I will give you a hint, Edward: it's all in the electrode. America's finest. Burns twice as bright and twice as fast, but you won't be running fast enough to escape the hood of the Batmobile's Hemi Supercharged V8.
