If you roll your vehicle on a public road you should automatically lose your license for a minimum of one year, and have to retake driver's education before getting it back.

There's really no excuse to flip your car in a crash - you had to have fucked up really badly to pull that off. Especially on a new car - they have so many electronic babysitters on them that it should be almost impossible to roll them.

Yet every single day people flip vehicles over! And not just big top-heavy SUVs and trucks - regular sedans, compacts, even low-slung sports cars and exotics. Like the Ford GT in the picture - you have to REALLY fuck up to flip a car that's wider than it is tall. And if you fuck up that badly, you shouldn't be allowed on the road.

Could be something in a ditch that flips the car up and back onto the road. Could be avoiding a deer, moose, etc.

Way too many variables.
>>
Or, get this, you got barged off the road into a ditch which cause your car to flip. Or maybe you were avoiding something, like a crash straight ahead or an animal crossing the road.

Flipping isn't necessarily the driver's fault.
>>
Or OP's mom is giving that dome-piece so good, you blast cum harder than the force of a million suns, which causes your car to flip due to the recoil.

Jesus, OP is fuckin dumb, doesn't even understand physics.

alright /o/, explain to me why does this board hate VW so much. Are US market VW's being made with worse quality materials or made more unreliable on purpose by the Germans? no one is complaining about vw unreliability and prices here in Europe, they're actually considered to be one of the best value for money cars and they're pretty cheap to run, while repairs wont break your bank unlike mercedes and audi.Cheap,pretty reliable and efficient - that's what VW is in Europe.

While us VWs are indeed worse since most are built in Mexico the euro reputation is way overrated and dates back from late 90's early 00's when they were king. Today they are not better than the french.

What does /o/ think of the Honda CR-Z?

I found a 2011 Manual trans with 30k miles (+ certified pre owned) for $9k; looks really cool, but it's not something I was at all familiar with before seeing it yesterday.

Manual on these are pretty slick. Great shifter, great clutch feel, surprisingly great steering rack.

Terribly underpowered. Honda Fit motor with a tiny electric motor for a total of 110 whp.
Handles like a small minivan.

Gets okay mileage compared to other hybrids in its segment. I averaged 38mpg mixed city and highway driving.

Better off looking at something else.

It seems to be a compromise between sports feel and economy, do you think that in those terms is succeeds? I'm just commuting and occasionally having some fun; the Econ/Normal/Sport selector looks intriguing.

The Top Gear article says :
> " That’s despite Mitsubishi calling it a ‘ground tourer’; something that people with stanced saloons might say. What that translates as is a car that should be able to cross vast distances without batting an eyelid, and suggests that Mitsubishi is focusing on comfort and refinement. "

Is everyone in a race to the bottom in terms of looks now? Also how is this dog shit ground tourer marketing term any different from a grand tourer? This definition is literally what a grand tourer is.

if you didnt know ferrari are buch of fags who purporesly fuck up other fiat cars sothey stay number 1 in fiat company when they cant in whole Italy because of German owned Lambo and insane Pagani. Ferrari makes camshaft for maserati and performance alfas so they are sure it wont be faster reving or acelerating. It would have been good car if it werent for ferrari who fucked up everything including ecu, tranny, suspension, and why? So it doesnt btfo ferrari entery models.

I have two questions for all carfags who do the following:

1) WHY THE FUCKING FUCK ARE FUCKING DRIVING WITH YOUR FUCKING HIGH BEAMS ON AT NIGHT? it's okay to use them in super dark streets, but I see fucking faggots using them when there is plenty of light around or on the fucking highway, or even when you're across from them from the red light. This is sure to make the other person cause an accident in the wrong moment.

2) If someone is on the highway or street or something and they have thier signal on (TELLING YOU THAT THEY'RE GOING TO FUCKING CHANGE LANES) and want to switch to your lane, why the fuck do you speed up in order for them not to "cut you off"? RELAX YOU FUCKING MORON

TO ALL YOU MOTHER FUCKERS WHO DO THIS, PLEASE KYS

I only hate when someone "flashes me" when I'm in the overtaking lane. Yes, i know I'm slow in a slow car but I'm fucking overtaking, man. I'm in the process of it. I'll leave it soon. Your flash doesn't accelerate my car to the fucking speed of light.

Guys... how do I drive a manual? I have a meeting today to look at a 328i for a great price, but I just realized its stick and now I'm freaking out...

You can't learn in less than a day. You'll grind the gears and look like an ass. Go look it up if you still want but tell the seller you can't drive stick or just tell him you are no longer interested if you want an auto.
>>
Press the clutch and move the stick to first gear. Don't release the clutch while you do this. Then slowly release the clutch until you feel it engage. Depress the gas pedal slowly while you're releasing the clutch. (PS anon you should've asked what transmission it was before scheduling a test drive)
>>
>>15818639
I'm American but lemme not sugar coat this for you. You will not learn immediatly, there is no quick cheat to learn. You will stall out. You will stall out in traffic. You will fuck up.
Okay all you have to do is put car on I.e. Depress clutch and brake turn car on.
With car on, parking brake down, keep clutch depressed put car into first gear, TAKE YOUR FUCKING BIG TOE AND KEEP THE RPMS AT 2K. Slowly get off clutch, car will start to go, ease into gas.
To stop clutch in, brake, put car into neutral, get off clutch. That's it 1rst gear is the hardest to get into but after that it's just a repeat
