you can race anything

real test is if it holds a record or not

It's true though. If your car, a sports car no less, has no motorsports heritage or lineage, then it's fucking trash. At no point during its development would somebody have said "we need this part, designed this way, because we need to go faster". That's why Koreans simply can't compete. Except for the i20 and Tiburon, strangely.

It's not like there's many.

Wangan Midnight, Initial D, and Speed Racer
and Redline.

As for Manga There's Over Rev as well, Shokatan Boogie and a few more.

TFW scans for King never. Granted the only thing I know about King is the main car is a wide body mid engined CR-X powered by a Subaru engine.

Its an 82 rabbit Diesel pickup, with 220,000 miles and a rebuild at 200,000.
Is this car terrible for my situation? Does it have too many miles? Or does the rebuild negate that?
I've never done anything with a diesel engine and that worries me a little. I've got a buddy who is a huge hick and can probably help me out if I need it. And my brother ised to have an 83 rabbit gasoline convertible so he may be able to help me with some of the other stuff with it if need be.
It says the radio doesn't work, is that a really bad sign or do I just need to buy a new radio?
Lastly, is it a good price? It seems a little much but these things are really rare in this condition
I know it's not the most practical car, for some reason I just love these little things. The farm I used to work at has one like this still running that they bought new in the 80s when my dad worked there. That's probably why

The thing is it'll be my only car for college. I do live right next to a bus stop though so if I need to my student ID doubles as a free bus pass. When I'm at home in the summer my family has 2 extra cars so thats not a problem. The biggest thing is I need to drive it 300 miles to get to school in the fall, back for winter break, spring break, and summer. Would you get in that car to drive 300 miles and trust it? I feel like the answer is no. There's a couple ford focus svts in the area in the same price range that would be way more reliable and practical but I just love this little vw

It's definitely not the best thing you could buy as far as a tool for transportation goes, but if you take care of it and make sure it hasn't been abused, it will serve you well.

Some do, but riding style, weight of the rider, etc. has a much larger effect on the handling of the bike so you need more adjustment from person to person, while a car that weighs 3000lbs and isn't really set up for performance doesn't really leave people feeling like there's not enough rebound damping or anything like that, if it goes down the road and a wheel doesn't fall off it's good to go. Serious performance cars have adjustable dampers.

Motorcycles run at stupidly high RPM and are smaller therefore more suseptible to valvetrain failure and wear.

Why does China love Cadillac and Lincoln?

Cadillac is very popular, chines websites rank their cars the highest against Germans/Japs/Swedes

Lincoln is growing faster than any luxury car company ever did in china since it was introduced in 2014

china very quickly developed a middle class, and there's this deeply ingrained notion in modern chinese culture of "hey, why reinvent the wheel?" which leads to copying things a lot.

as such they essentially copied the american middle class but in sort of a weird way. For instance they love the fuck out of buicks but also they thing pabst blue ribbon is like a high class beer?
Like this is a real ad. They really think it's a classy thing upper middle class americans drink. seriously
