GM is bringing back the Camaro which will have a manual. enthusiast cars aren't going anywhere. only europeans are killing them off because they don't care about manuals.

All have optional pegging attachment
All weigh 5k lbs or more

Cars are just gay now. You can thank zoomfluencers for that.

>no one buys manuals in burgerland except for a minority that autistically make it their personality
Yeah, not surprised by worst Korea though. I'd hedge a bet that a lot of those Porsches were bought for resale value.

Lotus is keeping the dream alive. The Emira is incredible and still being made with a stick. The Evora is extremely underrated and undervalued. I picked up an Evora S in March and It’s basically a faster, more modern gen 1 NSX for half the price.

Nah get the fuck out of here with that. Lotus sold out the minute they made a fat sportscar. Literally an MR v6 mustang.

it's actually arabs and chinese, white people can't afford supercars anymore

Seethe over having one of the most reliable engines of all time with a supercharger?

that’s why I said white person. no white persons oversees

Kit cars unironically.
Some day someone will piece together that you can setup an auto fab hub domestically and make a simple double wishbone chassis with roll cage and universal brackets. You could probably just lease the giorgio platform from stellantis since they arent using it anymore and mass produce in Turkey/Romania.

Then they will create a legally distinct engine company that resells crate engines with E85 and 91 octane tunes for 15% margin.

Factory 5 does this but not with scale in mind because its run by retarded boomers.

>>29041286
Yeah Euros killed cool cars with Euro 7 regulation, also they dont buy manuals.

why would we buy USG technology?
It’s not the 90s anymore

I don't think it goes anywhere.

I went to a local Miata meet for the first time in like 10 years and I was just amazed at all the weirdos. Truth be told it makes me want to sell my car instead of being associated with them.

Car culture is a strange bird now.

Dubious

>>29041770
That’s not the engine in the Evora. It has the 2GR-FE not the 2GR-FKS. There are significant differences between the two. The FE is transverse mounted and the FKS is longitudinal for one. The FE also isn’t direct injected like the FKS so it doesn’t have carbon buildup problems. As a Toyota tech, the only problems I ever saw with the 2GR-FE was occasional minor oil seepage from the timing cover and some water pump failures on cars with over 100k miles. They really are bulletproof.
>>
>>29041789
the fks was also used in camrys and avalons. it has both port and direct injection.
>>
>>29041823
Not him but I doubt that? Fks is only longitudinal afaik.
>>
>>29041827
there is one in my 2018 camry, it was also used in the avalon
>>
>>29041668
To demonstrate you have a soul?
>>
>>29041848
I just looked it up. Weird to shove a longitudinal engine in a camry.
>>
>>29041878
i dunno if you can really call the gr engine specifically longitudinal or transverse, it just depends on how it bolts to the subframe and what kind of gearbox gets put behind it.
