What is /o/'s census on window tint?
I have had it on all the cars I've owned.
An the two I own now
I have 20% on my lancer
I like it because It keeps my cars cooler and I don't like the sun in my eyes, it gives me headaches
and I have 5% on the back on my explorer and 20% on the front two windows
>>16207353
i live in a third world shithole with no laws so i put the darkest tint on my car on all windows except the windshield (although theres some people here that will also put a light tint on the windshield lel)
It nice for when i blast my music and dont want people to look at me because im insecure, although i think cars look better without tint
Also helps prevent onlookers from stealing your radio or other shit
There are some unimaginably autistic sperglords that hate window tint but don't have any reasons to justify their disdain except for "niggers" which doesn't even make sense. Everyone else doesn't care. It's your car, do whatever.
What does /o/ think the most A E S T H E T I C car is?

You thought the PT cruiser was gone??
>>16207301
And how is that Audi anything near what the PT Cruiser is?
>>16207319
I guess op means that a q5 with the tailgate open has a profile similar to the pt cruiser, or something retarded like that.
>>16207326
I'm OP and you are right.
Reposting because I didn't get a clear answer.
Consider two identical engines.
They make the exact same peak power.
They have an identical volumetric efficiency.
They have an identical air:fuel ratio.
However, one makes peak power at 6000RPM and redlines there. The other makes peak power at 10000RPM, also at redline.
Their powerband is exactly alike, it's just that the latter engine's powerband is longer.
They both have an identical gearbox behind them, with the final drive as such that both cars travel at the same speed when they're at redline.
If you were to turbocharge them both with an identical turbo, which would build boost first, relative to their peak power/redline? The 6K RPM engine, or the 10K RPM engine?
Let's assume the 6K engine builds boost at exactly 3K RPM (50% of it's RPM range). Does the 10K RPM engine build boost at, before, or after 50% of it's RPM range (so 5K RPM)?
>>16207073
after 50%
>>16207082
Why?
>>16207073
how are these engines identical if they have differences?
stop being retarded please

Opinions on a GTI? Anyone own one or have any input?
Gonna check one out next week.
Navigation,Moon/Sunroof, Heated Seats, Leather, 53k.
They want 16.9, Offered 15.5, countered with 15.9 Think I might actually pull the trigger. Carfax looked okay. Maintenance every 10k, major done at 50. Only concern is rear damage from hitting a parked car but I imagine it couldn't have been too hard.
Not too knowledgeable on these cars so input would be greatly appreciated. Seems to be everything I'm looking for though.

They're fun but it's easy to push the car to it's limits. It's a lot of fun but I'm not quite satisfied with it and I don't want to spend a lot of money modding an FWD car.
is it legal to buy a car from a family member for a very low price? I.e. writing 50 dollars on the bill of sale/title
pic unrelated
>>16205610
Why wouldn't it be?
This is America, isn't it?
>>16205610
In my state it's legal to gift a car to a direct family member and avoid paying tax.
Check your laws, famberlamps.

And that's how I got my first shitbox
>buy new car
>mailbox soon fills with fake, overly official-looking letters
>WARNING FINAL NOTICE etc
>your warranty ends soon or may already be expired!
What the fuck? Are people actually so afraid of paying when it's actually necessary to maintain their vehicle that there's an entire scam industry designed around having them pay ahead of time in promise of having more "warranty coverage"?
yes.

Most people spend everything they make in a month so they have no emergency fund. The thought of having to spend money other than the payment is scary as fuck.

The government of Ontario Canada is now toying with the idea of adding new regulations for changing winter/summer tires. This would mean that anyone who touches the lug nuts on a wheel on a car in Ontario would have to be certified to do so or it would be an illegal action...
Fuck Canada is cucked.
