Got back from the dyno today

What's your opinion on Volvo?
>>15405399
Scandinavian Chinese tank.
>>15405399
I like old Volvo's
New ones are nice too
Early 2000s was bleh
what does /o/ think of the 370z?
It seems, I can pick up a really nice used one with sport tech package for around $25k
>>15408716
Looks great, i'd buy one if I could afford one. Have you test drove one?
>>15408716
they look good and are relatively rare (at least where i live)
never heard about any specific issues from them either, so go for it op
>>15408716
Nice car, looks great, "Proper" GT sports crossover. Can pull very nice skidz.
Only worth getting in Manual though, the auto is fucking depressing.
You're driving through an undercover carpark and these two alphas laugh at you as you drive past
>what do?
Turn 360 degrees and drive away
Rev the shit out of my diesel and roll coal all over those faggots
>>15402303

because it sounds like complete ass
first for rfactor being a shit sim with a controller
Hey g/o/yim, I just started learning manual today, this is my second car and I finally have a stick, literally and figuratively.
It's terrifying to learn in commiefornian LA traffic, but I'm enjoying it a lot.
Anyways, any tips? Stories? Insults?
I picked up my first manual in Pasadena and learned to drive it in the local streets.
I'd just advise you to keep off the freeways for a week until you have the clutch down, because you know how bad summertime traffic is there.
If in doubt, full throttle and dump the bitch
Cool, I just bought my first manual, won't have it until next week, pretty excited to learn, it looks like a lot more fun than auto.
Why has this never become main stream like awd?
Adds lots of complexity and potential failure points for (relatively) little gain.
>>15407463
It morphed into something else, awd being part of that. For the Prelude, it went something like:
Mechanical 4WS -> Electric 4WS -> ATTS (SH)
Which led to SH-AWD

CAN'T COMPETE
FF A SHIT
>got a chance to drive this at a local meet
>owner wanted me to push it and beat it
>do so
>holy shit
Why does nobody talk about it? This car just takes it hard like the bitch it is. It's genuinely fun DD. I can't believe its korean, it reminds me of how Honda used to be.
If Hyundai can give it a slightly better chassis with the bigger 2.0t engine they have I might buy the next generation to DD while my project cars are in pieces.
>>15407150
I test drove one, it's trying SO HARD to be a 90's civic it's not even funny.
>>15407150
>100 won has been deposited into your account, Kim
>>15407163
Thanks.
>>15407158
The biggest thing holding it back is that it's based on such an old Accent chassis
>"Left-Hand Drive"
>drives with right hand anyway
What was even the purpose of switching it from RHD in the first place?
Oooh it's a Holden Monaro
>>15412501
so i can let my arm hang out the windurr like a proper murica
>>15412501
Because it looks better.
>Re-painting the car and will be going with maaco

>maaco
enjoy them painting over bugs
It'll look like a rattlecan job. But with a smooth even finish.
Why hasn't a car manufacturer just built a car that's better than every other car? Everyone has a bone to pick with every car - big SUVs suck gas and are slow, small cars can't carry anyone, big and fast cars are expensive and can't handle, etc.
Why can't we just have a big light SUV that can carry the same load as a pickup, that handles like a sports car, and accelerates like a supercar, on the cheap? Just have an engineering team make a 3 row SUV that can carry 1600 pounds and tow another 3000 but that weighs 2200 pounds, pulls 1.4g on the skidpad,...

despite manfacturers tooting their own horns on a constant basis they pretty much suck at everything and anything they do and will never be able to fully deliver up to what your expectations of a personal vehicle should be
>>15411763
OP is on the spectrum
>>15411772
I would think someone would be able to see the huge opportunities in the car market to just make a better car than everyone else, and outcompete them all by selling a better car
>weekend car takes a crap
>suddenly, a day later reliable dd decides to have a wheelbearing failure after suddenly hard starting
Fuck cars.
Car feels general.

>implying I won't
I have a job you worthless NEET. I know it may come as a surprise to you, but these are the woes of a normal human being.
That sucks compadre.
Conversely, that feel when you sit in your car an extra 5 minutes before going in, just because you're happy.
