It's time for the Cadillac Art and Science meme to die.

Making a car objectively better is bad now?

Why aren't you looking at the R32? It's literally better than the clownshoe Z3M.
It sounds amazing
It has Quattro
6 speed
Nice interior
Best looking golf ever
Prices are low enough now that they're affordable and they will hold their value
Not too much power so you don't look like a stupid Subaru owner child. But you can modify it to get respectable numbers but it'll never be a rocket like an sti but that's what's good about it. You flog it and have more fun at wot. Especially with that vr6 sound (yes I know what vr6 is. It's not a v6)
Nothing else like it on the road
>Not too much power so you don't look like a stupid Subaru owner child.
Golfs have a much worse stigma around them you retarded burgerclap.
Also, any Golf after MK2 is an unreliable shitheap.

Except much too heavy and looks - duh - like a Golf.
Why do these things fail all the time and why are they so fucking expensive?
How is this any harder to make than the motor off a $50 drill press?
>>15243934
>yfw it isn't actually the stator and rotor itself that are expensive and unreliable, but the rectifier
>fail all the time
???
If you didn't drive a piece of shit it wouldn't happen.
There isn't enough discussion about taking care of cars on /o/. It's almost like most of you faggots are busriders who occasionally get to finger fuck your mom's Volvo. This thread is for the car owners who actually take pride in their vehicles and want to keep them looking great and protect their finishes.
I jizz in my soap buckets lol

I don't know how to set up suspension properly. No idea how spring and damping rates affect handling, when anti-roll bars useful or not, etc. Most things I look up and understand but haven't even given the slightest effort into figuring out suspension.
Is he right?
Absolutely. He didn't mention:
The lack of entertainment options in the 1990s (videogames, social networking, anime/manga, more importantly computers/cell phones were nowhere nearly as popular as they are today).
Cheap/Easy Credit (How do you think you were buying a $60-70,000 R32 GTR as a 20 year old?) along with far cheaper insurance rates.
Less severe penalties for street racing and lack of engineering controls like there are on modern mountain roads to prevent that stuff (speed bumps, barriers, and grooved roads).

Why doesnt anyone make a FWD layout like this?
Where the engine is behind the front axle, and closer to the firewall?
Wouldnt this be better for handling?
Be the only Front Mid FWD layout.
Not have these ugly ass fuck cars with 3 feet of hood, and bumper protruding infront of the front wheels.
This used this layout, and you know how good it was...

my car is FF and it came stock from the factory with a little tiny spoiler/wing that probably does nothing
should i remove it? how do I remove it properly so there are no leaks? I like the clean wingless look and also weight reduction bro
>>15240584
>how do i remove it
that depends on how its attached
>probably does nothing
impossible to know with out analyzing it. either in a cfd or wind tunnel or crudely by vision. so post a pic faggot.
