>VN commodore was originally going to have a RB30 instead of the Buick 3800we were robbed
>>27608460the buick 3800 is one of the greatest engines ever made, shut your face
For $6800 USD, you can buy a brand new 4 wheel drive Suzuki Carry with locking differential and a manual transmission. Do you really need anything more?
2023 hybird camry LE for 25 grand. Should I do it?
I can't stand these npc boxes unfortunately. Get the matrix bro
>>27606964you could get an older is350 for that and have a way better car
>>27607232my current car has 97 horsepower.......
>>27606964Nah mayng, just wait a few months. The 2025 is 28 grand and way better, moar HP, new design, ecksedderuh.
>>27606974Then have fun paying the expensive repair bill. The battery is not cheap, plus the "special" labor hour is ridiculously expensive. :^) Non-hybrid camry is more reliable than the meme hybrid cuckbox. It is simple and easy to repair.
Whats the overall best 2L engine car in terms of engine power, durability, and fuel consumption thats under 20k euro in the EU? I need something that doesn't require service all the time or breaks down too often. What should I get?
>>27607015Renault Talisman 2.0 BlueDCI, can't get any more car for that money.
>>27607015>What should I get?
>>27607015You want the engine for under 20ke or the whole car with said engine?
>>27607084The Mazda engines are so slow. I tested the Mazda 3 with the Skyactiv-X and it had no power. The auto gearbox was incredibly slow to kick down as well. Corolla 2 litre is a far better option.
>>27608528A lot of euro reviews seem to be saying that Mazda auto gearboxes feel sluggish and people should buy manual if they want to enjoy driving.How did the gearbox behave when accelerating? Was it letting the engine rev the way it should?
Is it just a gimmick?why does no company try to copy them?
>>27607287The turbos are a high trim option, not standard. The NA already makes at/more than everyone else's turbo I4, so the turbo pushes them into NA V6 levels of power.
>>27608522Even the Skyactiv-G generates 13-14 to 1 compression
>>27608546Yes,but Sky-X is world first tech. First ever compression ignition gas engine to market. Ready for Euro-7 regs. On another note, look how many Mazda SUV's we get in Oz.
>>27608549SUVs sell so companies make SUVsCant blame them for following the market demands
I have a grey import 2015 CX-5 from Japan. What I know:>14:1 compression ratio on the diesel as well>Exhaust valves stay a little open for part the intake stroke while cold>Auto box locks up super early>Auto rev match down shifts even in "D">I almost thought it was a dual clutch when I first drove it>If you have a wheel in the air it hardly spins at all before sending power to the rest>Full throttle the first 2 gears are short and make it feel like a rocket>Barely any turbo lag>First KEKV I drove that actually drove well>Pull back to shift up, push forward to shift down like God intended.>Better clearance that most other KEKV'sProblem is that it is still a KEKV. However I think it deserves more praise than it gets, though not as much as that retarded autist that posts about it every other day gives.it.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

>>27607234My car doesn't have one, only sensors, but I plan to install a new head unit for aux/usb/bluetooth so I might as well get one with a camera
>>27607246Rearview cameras are a solution to a problem retards like you created in the first place with your stupidly big a-pillars and the resulting poor visibility.

>>27607608Then Lotus Evija X Prototype is another modified car. In addition, it is not production.

Why do people predominantly buy SUVs and sedans when the backseats & boot are empty 99% of the time? Thats a rhetorical question, I know the answer is because everyone completely overestimates the amount of space you actually need and use. What I'm trying to say is - why aren't coupes more popular? Unless you have kids, why have backseats? If you're realistic, the space of an mx-5 is all you need. Are your weekly grocery shoppings so large you need a huge boot, fatty? Exceptions, like when you're moving furniture, are exactly that - exceptions - and prove the existence of an overall rule. You don't need more than 2 seats and a small boot. The american mind may not be able to comprehend this.
>>27608521>What I'm trying to say is - why aren't coupes more popular?Because most people don't give a shit about muh coupe driving dynamics and don't want to buy or rent a second car for those cases when they do actually need 4 seats and a large boot.
>>27608521Women want to be comfy and feel in control. So their simps buy SUVs for them.
>>27608521Half of the coupes on the market are sedan-based anyway, so what's the point of them

>>27608503>Well tires, oil, coolant, and gas is cheaper.over the f900? Yeah I wanted a bigger bike but Im gonna have to finance a portion of the cost of it
Arghhh, i want 1 gen Magna
>>27608517very cheap if you can wrenchmax>>27608509>over the f900?Yeah I wanted a bigger bike but Im gonna have to finance a portion of the cost of ityesInternet says the 310 gets 62mpg, and the f900 gets 38mpg.Then look at the tire costs. Admittedly if you only ride in town that might take a while, but eventually it adds up, same with oil.Then look at how much the difference is, decide if it's worth it to you to go f900 or 310.Or just yolo the f900. Your call.If this is your first bike and you can swing the cost difference... it's worth it. If you have another big bike then the g310 starts to make more sense.... or just ride the other bike.

How come South Korea makes the most reliability quality cars?But the weeb trannies from /o told me otherwise?Lmfao
>>27606673>>27606678Implessive. your social credit score has been raised by 8 points
j d powers is a marketing company.hyundai paid for these results.a better indicator for quality is which cars are still on the road in five years.protip: they aren't hyundai.
>>27606937even scotty stopped shilling toyota. He shills subarus and idk chevy? now

>>27606937It is intended cuz the stealerships want more money from service.
What are the fucking pros and cons of truck-based SUV's and pickup trucks?
>truck based suv prosbody on frame so it's strong, easy repair, and good offroad.truck parts fit, so parts are cheaptruck bed, transmission, and engine so you can generally tow a lot, and use it as a truck that stuff is harder to steal out of(important in the coming era).pickup trucks get all the above+ longer beds, but lose the interior covering unless you get a camper shell.Biggest con?initial cost, mpg's(compared to cars), and general running costs.Heavier items=more wear=more cost. At least compared to your basic cheap commuter. Even then the american trucks have so many made that economy of scale for parts can counter this right the fuck out.Oh, and if you live in CA a pickup is a "commercial vehicle" so your registration costs more. Like 300 vs 150 for a suv.
>>27608450BOF SUVs are charmingly crashy, effortless, and floaty all at once. My ML55 feels like a GTA 4 car and it brought memories of my old piece of shit Montero Sport.
>>27608450truck good truck based SUV more good
How stupid of an idea would it be to buy a used Mercedes or BMW if you couldn't afford them new? Used ones that are about 10 years old are same or cheaper than similar Toyotas. Is the reliability and maintenance cost that bad?
>>27608531I would say 3-5 years old. If it’s a good model, nothing expensive will break but it’ll still have lost half its value. 10 years and maybe you have to replace a transmission or engine. Also, by then all the luxury features are now standard in every modern shitbox.
I have a strong desire to own a cute hatchback but obviously these things have a desire for being unreliable pieces of shit. Are they really that bad? What are my other attainable options in the US for cute hatchbacks?
As someone who buys and sells cars, Fiats are usually junk by 80k miles or so, and even if you have a "good" one the value plummets just from the fact there are so many bad ones. I do like the look and how they drive, but honestly I would avoid them unless you get a great deal on one.
>>27606862my sister in law has one of thoseits awful
>>27606556why not a civic instead? hatchback as well but a lot less fat looking
>>27606862I bet you can get an exhaust that makes it sound like a Harley when idling
My gfs is dead again.Battery keep auto-draining within a few hours. Dunno why or how. Maybe connected to the key, maybe connected to a bowl of pasta. Mamma Mia.
