Why do people get upset over youngins driving fancy cars? pic related is an extreme example but topic isn't limited to supercars.

Not sure if troll
>they didn't EARN it so it's some resentment
>they don't respect where it comes from (because they didn't earn it)
>it's a fashion accessory
>jealousy
There ya go faggot.
Chinks are the only people I see with Maseratis
I figure this is either because Maserati is technically inferior to other supercar brands and the chinks don't know that in their quest for status or because Maserati has some niche popularity in China like Buick does.

1.things are better when you don't earn them
2.thats just silly, everyone appreciates a lamborghini. you're forced to look at millions of "regular" cars every day, you will automatically be drawn to
It's been a while since we've had a gore thread ASFAIK, so let's get it going. Only one rule: No rotors or pads

This is probably the same guy
I need a v8 or bigger. Fucking now. God damn i just want to drink fucking petrol CUNTS.
Now here's my dilemma. I like the HSV engines, but those pieces of trash can't turn for shit.
I like american muscle, but i live in australia and getting one is just fucking impossible for the price they want.
So it's going to be cheaper for me to literally engine swap in a v8 to almost anything else. What's the best v8?
I would also love AWD and considering it costs like 300k for a mustang here, i'm ready to drop big money on an entire...

You want advice on an engine or a car? Get something you like and drop an LS into it, it's the standard choice for a reason.

I've been a turbo guy before this, so i'll be honest i don't know shit about na v8's.
Could you guys educate me a little? Would really appreciate it.
>>14115643
Who says you cant be a turbo V8 guy?
I'm a britbong looking for a decent 'hot hatch' and the two best options seem to be an Astra GTC (1.6 180bhp) or a VW Scirroco (2.0 210bhp).
Anyone got any experience with either? Which should I go for? The Astra is cheaper but the VW drives better.
>>14120803
You considered the Megane RS265? Also, why not the full Astra VXR?
>>14120803
both are shit and chav tier
Look for something else.
>>14120841
I've thought about the RS, but it's a bit basic inside for me - plus I don't trust the French.
And the Astra VxR is out of my price range - decent used one is about £15k.
Which state/province/country has the best license plate design?
>>14120701
>canada shitposting at 4 am est
nothing to see here
Yes.
>>14120720
Calls someone out for Shitpost. Becomes the shitposter
>>14120701
If I had some spare emoney I'd buy a Canadian NW plate, they're cool AF.
Not going to lie, though, out of the basic plates (not special plates) of all 50 US states, I like my home state's basic plate the best. It's simple, easy to read, and the graphic on the top makes me happy.

im looking for a first car btw

It's always best to start somewhere a little far from a tiny flimsy snap oversteer-prone car
>it's so shit! it doesn't even make vrmm vrmm sounds!
when will this stop?
dont electric motors kinda sound like superchargers at full acceleration or do you just hear wind and tire noise?
I don't think I hear that too much, the big concern right now is range.
>>14114161
when electric cars are good
[never]
Can we talk about the obvious superiority of VR engines over any other engine design?
>Six cylinders takes up the same amount of room as an I4
>Only one cylinder head
>Exhaust all exits on the same side
>Less complicated than a V engine with the same number of cylinders
Literally the only downside is that your bore size can't be too big without widening the block
>>14111801
Except all VR are shit becuase only VW makes them.
what ever happened to the Miller cycle engine
>>14111801
>>Exhaust all exits on the same side
how?
post exhaust ports please?
ok /o/ What Volvo is not for faggots?
Not the Polestar, that's for sure. POLESTAR LOL
>>14102911
Anything with redline engine 5 speed rwd they have 4 or 6 cyl turbo optional not much to choose from hombre. That is unless ur talking new Volvo and if so give up living
>>14102924
We're talking like old Volvo to right before it was kill by shitty boring cars. The ones w/ character.
Which one /o/?
T-Minus 3 Months until I buy one or the other
>>14118211
Whichever one you like more
Oh wait, you probably haven't driven either car have you?
>>14118218
Drove the GTI, not the ST
Let's just say my expectations are high for the ST based on the GTI
Volkswagen is rated somewhat better for reliability, so I'd go with them. Interior quality is generally nicer too.
>wife wants an suv
What do? Don't want to spend more than $8000

Buy her a mid 2000s 4Runner and fuck her in the ass
>>14115527
Tell the bitch to buy one with her own money.
>>14115531
Good luck with that. I recently saw a 4Runner 4x4 '05 with 110miles and the guy was asking $10,500
so your car got stolen, you call 911 to report and the lady asked for the license plate #s.
be honest, how many of you would remember off your head?
>not having an insurance card with the info in your wallet, an in-phone insurance app, and a copy of your insurance at home
>>14114987
i would.
>stolen 240
its probably in pieces by the time they find it
I have a vanity plate so it'll be easy but if you drive your car often, how would you not know your plate number? I stare at my car often though
Why is the 2015 impala so based?>>14113265
Is the new impala really based or is this some new dank meme

Its a meme dude. Test drive one if you dont believe me.

See op; based lifestyle
Why is BMW incapable of making a lightweight coupe? like seriously look at this shit.
>over 3600lbs
how did they fuck up this hard with a performance car? it's like someone from audi invaded their shit and was just like "hey lets add power assist on every single component of the car! what's an m3 again?"
>>14111788
Lightweight and luxury don't usually mix.
It's not just bmw that makes heavy cars you know.
>>14111788
You have to sacrifice luxury to make a car light. My Mazda 3 hatchback weights 3k lbs and I can hear myself driving over the pain of the lines on the road. What exactly do you drive that makes a 335i such shit?
>>14111819
Pic is an m3, though I own a Mazda3 and a 335 and love them both
