I mean this is a non-patronizing way but Reddit would probably answer your question better.

Just completely wrong
-Expensive to maintain
LOL no, it's average
-Often expensive to insure if your insurance considers it a "luxury" car
Wrong again, you are just saying shit now
-Understeer, understeer everywhere
True
-Lots of systems designed in "modules" where you have to replace a whole system in stead of a tiny part if something breaks
This is a lot of modern cars, it's not 1985 anymore
-Designed to be non-intuitive to work on to keep you using dealership service
Wrong.

Fuck off, we know you like project cars 2 more.

Assetto Corsa finally got official OpenVR support! If you have a Vive you can use this instead of emulating the Oculus software and you'll get a few more FPS.

I'm still amazed at how real racing feels in VR. I can only remember two times while racing with a monitor that I wasn't thinking about playing a video game and actually felt like I was driving my car, but in VR the game is almost removed completely. I actually feel like I'm driving a car and can tap into that muscle memory better even with my poor DFGT pedals. I will say though that the resolution on the current headsets isn't great, so it's hard to see corners coming up from in the distance, especially ones after a long straight -- sometimes you don't have time to react like you could with real-life vision. If you're thinking about getting into VR right now, I'd probably wait for the next generation of headsets. Or you could jump in now and sell your headset and graphics card when the next gen of graphics card releases like I plan to do. Can't wait for 4K 120FPS.

How to enter your car:
Use our template and post an image of your car as well as what performance enhancing mods you have done to your car (led interior bulbs don't count). again, this is a first-come-first-serve basis up to 64 people so after that cap is hit, you cannot enter. Modifications must be either currently on your car, or you must show proof that they are already purchased.
Contestants, please do not bullshit the specs. If you are called out you are to be expected to provide some sort of proof whether it be a timestamp, dyno sheets or something of the likes. If you do not come up with evidence defending your case, the modifications will not be counted for the tournament

If your car has a nickname, feel free to include it in the post.

*why 42 people?
We are going to do an initial removal of 10 cars. We will make a google doc with all of the first 42 cars posted, then whichever 10 cars get voted off first will be initially disqualified. This is to both to enable more people to compete than 32, and get rid of any cars you guys do not think deserve to compete from the initial postings. The reason you think a car should not compete is completely up to you guys. You can discuss your reasoning in the thread and try convincing others.


Lemme know if you guys like the template or want a different one.

This, you'll easily spend double what its worth keeping it running.

>>16908578
yeah, but no one ever explains why it's a moneypit. if you find one that has no obvious issues and runs then what is the issue? what all breaks?

Buying cars from people like that is always a nice experience.

I helped my mom by a used 08 Corolla, the son was selling it for his old parents. Nice guy to deal with, worked out a fair price, he delivered it to my mother's house, took off the plates, and I drove him back to his place in my moms old shitbox Mazda (which is now my headache). Everything went good.

All it takes is the right seller and right buyer to meet.

As a burger, those good old Christian southern boys are the most anti-intellectual, angry cunts you'll ever meet. Their entire lives are based around "that's how it's always been" and can't handle the idea of anything else

I like how it looks but in the end it is just another FF shit box.
had it been FR even if tad more expensive it'd be on the cover of every magazine for a year straight.
Honda just hates enthusiasts unless they're FF autists.

The appearance is utterly insane to the point where I appreciate it, even STI's look mundane next to it. If don't have a good design to begin with, you might as well overdo it to a point of having unique charm.

It's >FWD but that's what a Civic should be. Probably going to set a record lap time for FWD.

What would the price be and what would the gas mileage be?
I'm guessing Honda is trying to compete with the sti, so price is probably above $30k. But with the FWD idk

It looks overly designed, especially at the back. Those fake vents are so noticeable too.

Except if one of the girls in her group slightly smirks at the car you drive, then you need to buy a $50k crossover "for us" ASAP, think of the children you don't have yet, which may or may not turn out to be brown.

Americans BTFO again

>They are being represented by Hagens Berman, which achieved the then-largest automotive settlement in U.S. history – $1.6 billion against Toyota for a concealed defect. Hagens Berman is also leading the litigation against General Motors for its ignition switch defects, as well as various national lawsuits against Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz for illegal use of emissions-cheating software.

Damn, is he king jew?
