Why are 400 hp cars usually driven slower than $400 cars?
>>
>>29111959
because the people that can afford the 400hp cars are either boomers too scared or cucked to use it or younger people scared of wrecking it and paying the insane costs to fix it. that's why cheap shits like the miatas and toyobarus are popular; they're cheap to buy, cheap to run, and cheap to fix. yeah they get spanked by krautmobiles twice their price, but people aren't as willing to do the same shit in those that they would do in a cheaper sports car.
>>
Based on what evidence? I drive a 400hp car and I'm incredibly aggressive and an absolute terror on the highway

People who can afford nice cars are smart enough to know to drive responsibly. People who drive shitty cars lack critical thinking skills and foresight and that's why they can't afford nice cars

Poors have less impulse control due to lower intelligence. They always need to get places fast, but no one knows why.
>>
How fast are they supposed to be driven?
>>
you can't drive a 400bhp car fast all the time because it only takes like 10 seconds of full throttle to hit 120+mph. You can drive a 1.2 fiesta hard as fuck all the time and never get a speeding ticket
>>
>>29111959
Because the people who buy 400hp cars are poorfags in debt who would literally kill themselves if they got scratched (because they'd have to go further in debt to repair them)
>>
>>29111959
I don't know about that much disparity but generally yeah I agree with the concept. Most fast car owners are fags who's sports car is a accessory/status symbol and not a medium in which to participate in car enthusiasm.

Those who do own expensive cars and enjoy car enthusiasm are generally working class so are a bit hesitant about putting it (the car) at risk.

Golf GTI's, Civics, Hyundai's, 86/BRZ, miatas, older BMWs all offers a middle ground where the cars are fast enough to be respectable but affordable enough that owners are happy to risk them.

>>29111959
Because with the one in top pic you can actually feel somenthing when driving,and you can actually fix it easily and affordably!

Tires are expensive.
My DD can get 50k miles from a set of $350 walmart trash.
My 592hp toy gets about 10k miles out of $1,250 "cheap" performance rubber, even when im not driving like a retard.
>>
New cars need 400hp to move that 4000lbs of pig and fat. A 2900lb car only needs 290hp or something. Torque is also a factor.
