Why do Americans still measure automobiles in horsepower?

Because, to this day, it's quite convenient just in the same way it was intended back then: it's easier to have an idea about an engine compared to a horse than it is comparing it to "watts".
And now I have argued against the metric system. I'll go kill meself.
>>
>>16453582
It's not practical anymore because nobody rides horses anymore. Comparison to a horse isn't meaningful to the average person. The only rule to follow is "more horses=more better hurr"

"It's not built to go fast!" and any variants of that are ricer excuses for their car being slow
>>
>>16453547
isn't the point in ricing to make it seem fast?
why casually admitting it's slow then?
Check it out guys! Its the new Supra!
Considering the supra is being co-developed with bmw, how would you feel about this?

Indians are cheap as fuck. The cars don't cost too much new and they're cheap to maintain. They probably tell their friends to get one, and so on and so on.

Go ahead and look at it but I'd say probably not. Canadian car that looks winter driven so there is going to be rust everywhere. Particular parts to worry about are the subframes and the rocker panels, both of which will almost certainly be rotted out if they are original and at that asking price, I bet they are. As a result, good luck getting it to pass safety to make it road worthy and such a car would be a hazard as a track vehicle.

When Ford released the 2015 mustang, they dated this body style HARD. Nobody will ever want it now.
Besides, they are all disposeable cars for high school drop outs and enlisted idiots.
Anyone here use Motor Trend On Demand?
I really like the MT youtube channel and a few of their magazines and almost all of their content is good. Its ~5usd a month to use MTOD, and you can get a sneak peak for a month free and then cancel your account, but not sure if I agree with the ethics of the entire operation. I would be happier if they released all their content for free and didnt do the youtube teasers. Seems like they are a bunch of greedy mcjewbergs. I dont even like their high budget builds, stuff like the VW Baja bugs and the GMC Jimmy junkyard rescue are their best content and those are their cheapest builds, so Im not sure where that money is going beisdes the pockets of the producers and editors. Is paying for the site worth it?
Steve Dulcich is a badass, main reason im considering

Kind of. I really only like to watch roadkill garage and engine masters so content is slow for me. Would be better if i just bought a month three times a year.
You get a lot of shit for the monthly price though
>>
>>>>>>>>>>https://www.youtube.com/user/MotorTrend

Roadkill extra is pretty neat. Watching the shows a month early is nice too. Dulcich is great as well. I recommend doing it like 3 times a year and binge watching all the content if you don't care about early releases.
You forget stuff like the fact that Finnegan doesn't live in LA anymore though. they fly around a lot for even their low buck episodes. plus, even shitboxes cost some money and they pretty much by a new one every month. Plus, nobody works to not make as much money as possible.

The new NSX has fly-by-wire brakes. I wonder how the pedal feel is. I'll never get to find out.

Some countries demand a physical connection between the brake pedal and the brakes by law.

I have a water pump seal issue, so coolant's leaking. How hard are those to replace? I can borrow basically whatever tool I could dream of, but have no experience working on cars past changing oil/tires other stupid shit like that.

what kind of car, model/year?

>>16451207
You replace the whole water pump, not the seal.
Depends on the car how big of a job it is. Some are easy, others I wouldn't recommend to someone who never wrenched before.
