I didn't. 9 years, no crashes. Spun out once while taking snow and ice covered back roads at 50mph, but kept it on the road. Maybe you're just bad at driving?

Turbowski is a colossal fucking faggot that needs to get knocked down 20 pegs or so. Classic low iq know-it-all and with a shit attitude too. His opinions are garbage and his too cool for the room demeanor drives me up the wall. I work in EPC and the construction side is chock full of faggots like him and usually the smarmiest litte cunts are always the least competent ones.

Hello auto maniacs!

So, as you may not know yet, the horsepower required to overcome aerodynamic drag is approximately 80% on a flat road at 40 km/h speed, and it is proportional to approximately speed3.

What is your excuse not aerodynamically enhancing your own car?

Name me one road going car from a major manufacturer that has wings both and the front and the rear.

Furthermore, name me three road going cars from a major car manufacturer in which the wing is not mainly there for aesthetics.

Aerodynamic downforce is negligible in road use.

fuck off m8, plastic bumpers may look ugly, but they absorbed impacts much better than solid metal ones, scuffs came off if you just rubbed your dry hand on it a few times, and were a hell of a lot cheaper to replace. There's a reason most commercial vehicles produced today still use 'em, and that's because they're more of a convenience for someone who needs to drive great distances without that much care.

My older brother has a 1999 Kompressor Mercedes he doesn't drive anymore after a minor accident and bought a new car. There's a list of repairs that I'm not really sure if I want invest in.

However, a neighbor a VW Cabrio for sale for 1000. But I don't know if anything is wrong with it yet.

What would be a better choice in the long run? I intend to drive across state borders frequently.

Oops, didn't notice that.

Not sure why that would affect what car he got though, smog tests and such don't apply for out-of-state vehicles…

>There are a lot of Mercs 300 and C-classes that goes over 300k miles.

300 series ended in the 80s/early 90s. Those were the last decent ones in terms of reliability. C-klasse went to shit with the rest of the new or redesigned models in the mid-90s afaik.

>I assume OP's car with a Kompressor isn't a V12 neither

Obviously, but if a few of their cars are horribly unreliable and insanely expensive to maintain, and they don't outsource production a lot like some conglomerates do, then there is a pretty good chance that their other models are prone to the same unreliability, to a degree. This is all circumstantial of course, should look up reliability tests if one is actually considering that car.

Hardly all-American supercars. The Callaway Sledgehammer was what happened when God took a shit in the engine bay of a C4 Corvette, the Viper was just a demonically-possessed go-kart where even midgets had a hard time fitting inside and always maintained knee-based contact with the glovebox before it became a rebadged Ferrari grand tourer. It's almost as if there's no such as thing as pigfat exotica.

Would've heralded that as the sole true American supercar but apparently even that was just the bastard child of an Aston Martin Group C LMP that the backwoods hicks found in a dumpster and took home instead of leaving to die.

Nevertheless If I had 55k€, I would strongly hesitate between this and a Cayman. The Alpine has a cuter design but a 4 banger… I also wanted a Camaro/Mustang/Challenger… For this amount of money, the Alpine is worth it somehow.

What laws would you make the official rules of this car-centric country of yours?

>Banger racing outlawed and punishable by death, too many vintage/rare cars have been destroyed over the years (see pic; the bastard wrecked an 80 year old antique on purpose)

>Separate automatic and manual licenses like you have for guns, a stick license will allow you to drive slushboxes but not vice-versa

>All cars kept in museums/garages must be driven at least once every 2 weeks by a trusted driver and have direct access to a test track if public roads are not a viable option

>Shitty "art" projects where perfectly good classic cars are left to rot in the open are to be immediately dismantled, anything salvageable rescued and the Cultmarxist responsible executed

NO. WRONG. Restore it, and drive it on weekends so the children in neighbourhood can see something different.

<inb4 muh every classic car will be preserved or restored with government funds

Nobody stated that. A car CAN become a classic in 30 years, maybe 20 if it is something rare. If there will be no electronic-filled rustbuckets from 2000s left by 2030s, then they will be justremembered as shit cars like they were. The thing about cheap econoboxes is that they tend to get thrashed beyond repair. Few car models from this millenia will be remembered. Those that will be remembered are already legends.

It seems every car made these days is full of computers and electronic components that cannot be serviced but that can be hacked by evil doers.

why the FUCK does it have to be closed? like why can't it be directly connected to a laptop and using some software so you can tweak it?

>You can abuse your car and break it

>Safety measures

But what would you want to change in your car? Tweak the engine? Do i even need to start geting into why seemingly the same engines have different power outputs?

Yeah maybe changing the music player layout would be nice, but just think of the problems every car dealer will have once they start getting calls from people who looked up guides on internet and now have made their cars from the beautifull cariage to a pumpkin.

Just got my first bike and I'm looking for saddlebags. They need to lock and be rain resistant. What should I look at? More importantly, what should I avoid?

I managed to finally get my motorcycle license this summer. Too bad it was late summer and life in the Scandinavia is snow and rain, but I got a little bit of driving done.

My first bike is a used Kawasaki ZX600 from 1999. It's pretty fun.

This thread didn't really help stave off my craving for going out and riding.

Northen yuropean too? Sweet. I plan on getting my bike license this winter, so as soon as the snow goes away i can pass the exams and spend the summer on my Minsk. Found an almost functional Minsk under some tent behind a barn. Owner just handed over the documents and said that it has something going on with fuel pump. It was kicking out blue smoke when i tried to start it, did not start though. That smoke looked hopefull though.

New Tesla Model S revealed.

And fuck, it's worse than the original, and the original has some seriously ugly design points.

It's the car of the future, so why does it look so ugly. Literally, Elon Musk is framing the look of the future, and instead chose to make it a horrible pastiche of a new Aston, Mustang and a hatchback with autism. It's just profound how ugly this car has become.

I am not sure what your post is trying to tell me in this case besides "ur dum" I still stand not corrected.

My arguments were

>electrical engines produce heat under stress

>electrical engines produce less heat undel low stress, thus waste less power (input to engine remains the same, output goes to waste because the wheels are not spinning)

>so future electric trucks could use a gearbox

Did you provide any arguments? No, you did not.

You seem to have trouble wrapping your head around this. I'll try to make it more simple for you.

62c7a4 posts this:

>Someone has to make electric kits that let us replace drivetrains from engine to electric. Think of the potential.

>Of course, it would be quite complicated, and it must leave the regular engine as generator while forgetting the gearbox completely (electric engines+gearboxes will not happen on road cars, maybe only specialised towing vehicles).

>No, it has to replace the gearbox (direct acces to engine power for max generation), and handle the power to wheels the same way gearbox did (axles)

To which I (4c37af) reply:

>electric engines+gearboxes will not happen on road cars

>What is the original Honda Insight

Since it technically does have an electric motor (although coupled to a combustion engine) in line with a manual transmission.

To this, you (62c7a4) reply with a lecture on how electric motors work, which completely misses the point of my post you're replying to, and on top of that you tell me "ur dum" by implying that I don't know fucking middle school physics.

Do you understand now, or do I need to use some other language?
