>fast

I had a fucking 1998 Fiat Punto up to 185KPH (115MPH) on a long downhill when I was stationed in Sicily. That IS "slow car" speed.

My sister's Jetta 2.5 will do 130MPH.
My Grand Prix has hit 158.

It's a meme, but it's actually kinda true. If you look at a Honda Grom. People love them. They are slow as fuck, I think lome 15hp or something. But you can ride them hard as fuck, if you rode a faster bike that hard you're going to kill yourself. Pushing the shit out of an underpowered machine is fun.

>>28778879
Yes. One of the most fun cars I've ever owned was a 1978 VW Rabbit Diesel. Bitch made a whopping 43hp, top speed was around 62mph unless you were going downhill or had a tailwind. Driving it was an exercise in avoiding the brakes as much as possible. I've since owned a number of sports or sporty cars (BMW 323, Porsche 911, Audi S4, Subaru STI) but hooning that old diesel rabbit along dirt roads in the country is the driving experience I look back on most fondly.

Well i'm actually more talking about the fact that people think the speed limit is some mythical barrier that you can't cross.
Like no point in buying a genuinely fast car because "there's no way anyone could ever exceed 65mph, that's illegal!"

I've gone faster in a miata

A supercar is a ballacke around town
Pic is an absolute hoot.

I'm not arguing that. I did 140 in my 911 on Tx 21 (Old San Antonio Road). While that was fun, it wasn't as much fun as sliding around gravel roads in that old diesel rabbit, and there were a lot more opportunities for 4 wheel drifts on gravel roads than there were for topping the ton in the sports car.

Based and true. I too own a Mk1 Golf, it's slow as hell but unironically the most fun I've had in a car.

Generally no. If they did, these people and their stupid little Miatas and Golfs wouldn't be putting on sport suspension and air intakes and expensive tires to make them faster. Taking a slow car/bike fast is indeed fun. But doing that on purpose, when you actually have a faster option, that's advanced level fun. You need to be enlightened by speed to really understand and appreciate it. Anyone new to performance automobiles just wants to go fast. Which is based and totally OK. Just know that "muh slow car fast" is 100000000% cope if they've never owned anything significantly faster.

Picrel example. 70s shitbike with no rider aids. It's my 8th bike. This thing would get absolutely dusted by any 600 or bigger from the past 20 years. But it's so unbelievably raw. I love it.

Lmao how come i've never heard of people who detune their cars to make them slower because apparently that makes cars more fun?

Buy a light car, not a slow car.
