I hate people who think there cars are good because they have leather interiors or powerful engines or whatever when they aren't even new.

A brand new corolla is litterally shows more status than half these old cars that don't cost much that people brag about owning.

Fuck you if you think your leather interior and powerful motor are make your car good when its 5 or even 10 years old.

I'd say roll with 3psi for starters then up it to 6 if the motor doesn't blow after a month. Don't go over that. Over 8 is when you will start seeing problems.

How do you convince dealerships to let you test drive supercars?

If I suddenly came into lots of money and rolled up to the dealership in a fiesta would they shoo me off?
64 posts and 4 images submitted.

>>16700940
They force you to put collateral down before you can drive the car. Typically your home.
>>
>>16700940
You probably can't. As in you specifically.
People that buy these cars don't want miles on them, so they're not going to let you drive one of them unless they're reasonably sure you're walking out with it. "It" being the exact car you'll be driving, as in they're not going to want you to put miles on a white Gallardo when you want a Yellow one because it's putting miles on a car that they then have to try to sell to someone else.
There's some Chevy dealerships that won't even let you test drive Corvettes. Period. A supercar dealer will be similarly aggressive.
On top of that, if you show up in a in a shitbox, they're not going to think you'll be buying a supercar. People who already have super cars or high end luxury cars buy supecars, not people rolling in on fiestas. You'll also be judged on your age and appearance and on whether they think you can actually drive one of their cars without putting it into the ditch while leaving the lot.

Now, putting all of that aside, the best shot you have is to walk in wearing a t-shirt and a bathing suit with sandals and some sun glasses in an area like Miami or Southern California. People who can afford supercars don't dress in suits, they dress like they don't give a fuck.
Preferably also do this in a walking district or close to a marina so you don't have to drive up with your shitbox. If you can make it look like you just stepped off your yacht and are bored and suddenly got an itch for a supercar, great.
Confidence above all.

Now, on a realistic level, the best shot you have to actually drive one is to just rent one for a day from an exotic car rental place.

I actually know a farmer that tried to buy 20 Ford pickups to replace his fleet. Dude showed up in overalls without a shirt to the dealership. The salesman refused to show him anything besides the cheapest beater truck they had.

Long story short, he ended up going over to chevorlet and buying whatever they were selling. He ended up writing the ford manager a letter (fucking rednecks and technology) that ended up causing heads to roll. Manager was fired for not listening to the rednecks, saleguy was fired and black listed.

Fucking farmers and oil field workers make the most hilarious customers ever. Roll in in dirty work clothes, ask to see a truck, then pull out 70k in cash to buy it.

I just thought you'd appreciate that story and give some perspective.

This is the correct answer. If you ACTUALLY came into some money, go drop some cash and buy an expensive watch second hand. ((the jews get you buying it new)). Wealthy people don't give a single fuck how they dress, but a LOT of them do like watches, and if you've got a watch worth 30k on your wrist (that you bought second hand for maybe 20k), you get lumped into the fucking weirdos that buy something till it dies category.

A good watch will open doors for you in the future. Like I said, fucking oilfield workers and fucking farmers. Being smart about what dealership you pick will also play a role.

If you just want to drive one, just go fucking rent one.

So they built a petrol engine that works like a diesel? Essentially forced pinking?

Nahh, given how more volatile petrol is compared to diesel, I'm predicting an engine highly sensitive to octane ratings.

>will wear fast as fuck

So they are bringing the rotary back, only with none of the benefits.

He recently just thought about restoring it and giving it to me.

i was going to end up spending around 3k on a car on craigslist (mainly to get a 240sx)

Sup nigs,

My dad just bought a brand new 2017 Audi A4 (blah blah blah new cars blah waste of money, I get the memo). It's absolutely fantastic but I was wondering if there was a way to enable quattro on it? Probably a dumb question but since they're so visually similar I thought they have the rear/middle diff required for AWD on all models, even the FWD ones.

He's giving me his old ass Bronco and I want to upgrade his car as a thank you. No hostility m8s, just asking

No you can't. They don't just "turn it off". It's physically not there. What would they have to gain by just not enabling it?

Not having it there saves costs so more cucks like your dad can afford a VW shitbox.

I bet its automatic too.

U r dumb.

>Thinking they would include all the hardware necessary for AWD but not charge you for it

Lmao you're not too bright

Kinda late on this, but FIA wants to keep the average speeds below 80 mph. In sweden(snow event) the averaged a bit over 85 mph, which is something the FIA did not liked.

Any thoughts? Do you think they should do anything about or just let them loose as it is? Mind you, in dry tarmac stages, these cars will fly. We will probably see restrictor plates appearing again, and maybe toyota will go back to their own habits.
