Why do they hate our freedoms so much?

Because it's trash.
Only idiots keep insisting it's good.

Stop being hyperbolic. A new GT is a fine car for its price and segment. Although I'd take a Camaro or WRX instead.

Yay or nay /o/?
Mileage? Have you actually seen this thing up close?
Does it have reverse.

>Mileage? Have you actually seen this thing up close?
300,000km
Yeah I have and I'm getting my mechanic friend to check it out in a few days
My 98 Ford Explorer Sport is about to hit 260000 miles, the only things I have ever had to replace on it were the tires, brakes, radiator. Is it not common for this model to get this many miles? When I tell people they sound shocked.
Most people don't regularly service their vehicles. Then they complain when something goes wrong.
My car has low miles for now so there isn't much i can say although there was a guy on /o/ who posted a picture of his Chysler Town and Country van with 230,000+ miles.
He told me he didn't have to replace anything other than the stuff you mentioned with your car and.
Couldn't believe it and not sure if those cars actually are reliable (i know JEEP XJ and ZJs are)

Is that your car?

Active torque vectoring that uses the brakes is fucking trash
sure thing kiddo
>>14829114
It's nice when you don't want a heavy as fuck electric motor and battery bank, but want a bit more turning capability.
Plus it makes heavy cars get hektik, it really turned me on to the Bentley GT3
>>14829134
nice mclaren, you nor I will own one. If you have that car then you can go through brakes no prob, not for average joe cars that have that shit for no reason.
But yea lets see you mclaren with a time stamp and a box full or replacement brake pads.

This is grossly true
>slower than the *2012* Camaro 1LE
Hmmmmmm

>>14824688
How is it slower than a 2012 when it beats a 2016SS?
>>14824688
actually considering the fact that they did not tested the M performance package, and that the difference is .03 its safe to assume the M performance package will be faster
Which vehicle has the worst userbase where you live?

>>14822621
As a fellow Albertan I can confirm that this is absolutely unequivocally correct
>>14822624
- older Focus owners and you are correct.
What should I get /o/
My uncle told me after I graduate he'll buy me anything that's under 35000
Any suggestions?
If you're leaning towards that thing, get a WRX instead and build it up

Sup guys,
My 98 explorer started making a
decently audible knocking/tapping sound on the drivers side. I was on the interstate and the engine started running rough and starting smoking from the hood. Smoke was white. The car didn't start knocking until after I pulled over and started it back up. It doesn't knock/tap when I give it gas in park, only when I'm moving and even when only idling. Sounds like a loose bike chain or something. Idk what it could be. Any help would be appreciated.
Is your oil pressure light on?
>>14831659
Nope. And oil level is above half. Sounds like it taps in rotation with the tires.
>>14831673
Well your oil level might not be the problem, if there's low pressure in the system and it's not getting to the cylinders. But like u said the pressure is fine. Sounds like lifter tapping under your covers maybe

Driving questions:
>do you downshift to stop?
>if yes, do you rev match?
>at a light, do you keep the clutch disengaged or chill in neutral?
>do you double clutch?
>>14830597
2 shift forks, three sets of bearings, three sets of gears/selector sleeves and two clutches.
Broke both the 1/2 shift fork and 3/4 shift fork while racing at the track shifting it too hard from first to second and second to third. ended up rounding the teeth off of the gears and selector sleeves in the process and destroying two bearings, and replaced two clutches before finally upgrading to a 6 puck and chromoly flywheel.
>>14830629
> no i do not downshift to a stop unless my brakes are overheating
>i rev match every time i do downshift if possible
>clutch disengaged if at all possible.
> only double clutch if rpm to gear selection is really far apart.
>>14830597
What's the practical difference between double clutching, and just keeping the clutch in?
Comments you get when people ser your car thread.
