What's the point of a NA V8? They still get garbage fuel economy, while being slower than turbo 6s. No wonder manufacturers are killing them. Obviously emissions play a role here as well, but when they get outperformed by turbo 6s or even some turbo 5/4s, what's the cope, other then "muh V8 rumble"?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuATKZd8z2o
>>28119490Turns out basically no one drag races their car so what difference does it make that a car is 0.2 seconds faster in the quarter mile, or even an entire second or two. I don’t race my car so I don’t give a shit. Give me a V8 with some power and I’ll have a guaranteed smile on my face every time I drive. Can’t say that about turbo 6 lameness.
>>28119490> What's the point of a NA V8?Sound
>>28119490>muh tenths at a drag stripGet a liter bike then u pussy. Fuck benchracers goddamn.
>>28119490>What's the point of a NA V8?To add turbos, faggot wrenchlet
>>28119490>AWD top trim model vs not AWD pigfat with exhaust mod vs not AWD pigfat widebodyTotally a fair comparison.
>>28119574>AWD top trim modelit's not a m3>not AWD pigfat with exhaust modweights about the same as the 340i>not AWD pigfat widebodythe engine has more hp/tq then both of them, plus has the same trans as the bmwyet the 340i still won in a rolling race
>>28119490>AutoThey're all trash anyway
>>28119490my bike smokes all your pigfat cagey shit>>28119507sounds better too.
>>28120048>farting mosquito sounds
Youd understand if you owned a v8. More cylinders always produces a better sound
>>28119490It's cool, miss me with that plastic engine with blended gravel sounds
>>28119490You are aware you can have a V8 with a turbo, aren't you? You don't actually think you have to choose one or the other, do you? t. daily a rwd turbo v8 w/ 6 speed manual
For me it's the power and torque band of a NA V8. They're so smooth and linear. You don't get that with the "full torque at idle and nothing on top" bullshit that modern turbo engines have.
>>28119509this
>>28120145You mean the new mustang? yeah.
>>28119490I just like em. No replacement for displacement.
>straight line speedYawn, my GTI is faster than all of those where it matters
>>28120312Huh?
>>28119490They're all slow compared to EV's
>>28120676EVs are slow as fuck above 80 mph. One trick pony.
>>28120683That's only because 0-60 is all that matters (real world).If anyone aside from poorfag boyracers (broke) cared about 80 plus, elon would simply offer a geared transmission (tranny)This post doesn't require a response
>>28119490>They still get garbage fuel economy>buying a sport car for fuel economyThere are rocks that are smarter than you.
>>28120683Daily reminder that this hasn't been true for 5 years
>>28120703efficiency is powerlow fuel economy compared to other cars of similar power ratings means the car is probably not very well made -- or inversely means there is a lot of hidden power on tap you can get at with mods.
>>28120170>has never ever driven an actual v8they're peaky and don't like to rev high or fast.v6s have true linear power curves>"full torque at idle and nothing on top" bullshitthis accurately describes all n/a v8s
>>28120743>this accurately describes all n/a v8sanon so completely buckbroken by pushrods he forgets the existence of dohc v8s lmaoAlso area under the curve in gear is more important than whatever the tachometer says, noob. EVs are fast because awd is fast from a dig, wow we definitely didn't learn this in the 80s. And benchracing boost vs N/A motors is like comparing natty vs roids. God why do I come here lol
>>28120757i don't give a fuck about your gay little 2.3 liter eco hybrid v8 eurohomo
>>28119490>t. never driven a manual NA V8.
The experience beats the numbers when it comes to NA V8 driving machines. The emotions and pleasure are unmatched.
>>28119490I prefer a v8 even if its slower for easier maintenance and I like the sound better. I like cruising on quarter throttle and then slamming it and with turbos you have a delay.
