Why are Germans seemingly incapable of making light cars like the nips and wops?
Their cars are attractive but I have how heavy they feel.

The fact that it spawned an ultra-succesful layout doesn't mean it was a good car. SUVs are immensely popular nowadays, but in thirty years time, will we be treating the first SUV as the best car ever made? I think not.

Hey /o/ I need a car to pick up my wife's son from school, she told me that I'd needed to sell my current car (it's a mustang) and buy something safer since she cares a lot for him.
I was thinking that an SUV could be a great choice, but I'm having trouble choosing one up. I was going to buy a Toyota RAV4 but my wife told that she didn't like it. So I came here to ask you for suggesti/o/ns on which SUV I should buy

How can you claim to be a 'car enthusiast' while being too much of a pussy to ride a turbocharged Hayabusa? All bark no bike. Keep watching your initial D. Alphas like us will continue to experience acceleration feels that you only watch on YouTube.

That's the only superbike that didn't give me shoulder/back pains when I sat on it.
What's my excuse for not owning one?
> Money
I can't afford one yet.
> Experience
I've only had a bike license since november, and I'm limited to 125cc until I get it upgraded.
> Riding skill
I'm too much of a pussy to deal with a 200MPH+ bike without any experience.

Hey /o, I haven't heard about lancers at all, particularly the final generation. What are your thoughts on it and why is it so cheap? I know it competes with Mazda and Subaru but why are used lancers a few thousand cheaper in the same condition as say a Mazda 3 or an Impreza. Also what are your thoughts on them and their long term mechanical reliability?

Hey there /o/, i'm pretty much a retard with no understanding of engineering. Why is it that the bore/stroke of car engines always seems to just fall within a certain range, while more cylinders are added if more displacement is needed? For example, most 4-cylinders seem to be around 2-2.5 liters, i know Porsche made a 2.7l. But why are there no 4l+ 4 cylinders? (I guess the 4bt is an exception, being an industrial powerplant). Does balance become an issue? Wouldn't a shorter crank be less prone to damage from vibrations? And what is the theoretical limit on the max bore size of a cylinder/it's maximum stroke?

Basically larger cylinder=lower top RPM, because larger pistons=more mass=harder to change inertia.
The larger the piston, the heavier the counterweights need to be, and again it accelerates/decellerates slower because it has more mass it needs to move. They exist in ships and stuff that don't need to accelerate quickly, but cars and bikes need it, so they don't have massive pistons.
Then again I'm not an engineer and this is just off the top of my head from my limited knowledge of physics.

Hey there op, i'm pretty much a retard with no udnerstanding of engineering myself, but fuck it, here is my answer.
Four cylinder engines have some advantages they are compact and lightweight, only have one cylinder head, in short, they are quite a simple engine with lower manufacturing costs.
In theory, a 4L I4 would have more power then lets say a 4L V8.
But, making the I4 overly complex would take away all the advantages it has in it's small and efficient form making it a top heavy, expensive and unreliable alternative to the V8.
