Why are 20 year old hondas more reliable than modern super cars?
Why doesn't a quarter of a million dollar price tag and millions of R&D research buy a quality product?
>>15233606
Want power?
Sacrifice reliability.
>>15233617
Why can;t I have both by paying more?
In every other industry more money = high quality. Except the car industry.
Complexity.
Also lean manufacturing was first introduced to mainly increase quality and reduce lead times but are now used to mainly increase profits.
The targets getting squeezed from both sides.
>>15233617
Not really. A Fiat Punto with 60hp is like 5 times more likely to break down than a Honda with the 200hp H22a engine.
>>15233658
But a toyota corolla with 60hp will run forever.
Build quality is a thing.

its because yuroapes and amerifats can't make supercars

the more complex something is the more shit can go wrong

The GTR is far from reliable.

Super cars aren't really any more complex than modern cars though.

GTR was (probably still is) notorious for transmission issues. Not to mention the Primera tier interior.

Sure it is

its ok, one day you may
Maybe super cars suck because they are made in Italy. Maybe fiat sucks because it is made in Italy. Italians should stick to cooking.

Not that, just comparing a motorcycle to a car is pretty stupid.

What makes it unreliable? Eating its transmission from dozens of hard launches does not constitute as unreliable.
anyone here do any like milling, or machining work? OP you should work on some, then you'd probably realize why...
Simple truth is there is way more that can go wrong in a modern car, vs an older car. Especially in the electronics department.
Newer demands for exhaust and environment care have also added systems to engines that is not healthy at all for the engine, but is necessary in order to comply with standards written into law. EGR being a prime example, although it is worse for diesels than for gasoliners.
>>15233988
because super cars are hand made by some italian hick in a backyard with a hammer?
>>15233627

That's not true at all. In the car industry, like in most industries, more money just gets you more product.
>>15233606
they are reliable
they become unreliable when the people can't really afford them so they skimp on maintenance
simple as that

Honda civic
Prelude
Mazda 323
Corolla sprinter
Geo prizm gsi

How hard would it be for to design a reliable supercar? Of course it would be free of complex electronics and mechanics. Just design a simple mid engine chassis and slap an aluminum LS engine in it. With giant sticky tires, it would certainly have supercar performance.
