GM could have made the Snek have way, way more than 645bhp with literally zero effort or downsides (minus maybe a small hit to reliability and fuel consumption, but really who cares) so why didn't they?
That engine is capable of 900bhp+ in its sleep with a supercharger/turbo setup, with that kind of power it would have pissed all over literally every car ever on track.
>muh, muh lag!
Fuck off, if you seriously think a car which in its N/A form produces 600lbs/ft of torque would have any lag at all you're an utter retard.

How does /o/ feel about HIDs. My car came with them installed by the PO and I like them a lot, but sometimes I get flashed and get nervous I'm actually blinding other people.
They're just plain white.

So what's the most comfy car I can get for less than 10k?
Ive been oogling at a 2001-2002 ls430, because I don't know if a 2004 7 series would be a good Idea. I'd mostly be doing inner city driving, think Dallas.

ls430 is the correct answer

04-05 is much better. Facelift. Available ultra luxury package which is pretty dope.

I'm just wary about the whole cheap upkeep cost of Lexus thing. If something breaks, is it really considerably less expensive than other cars? I currently own a 97 328i and it's fucking killing me with these costs
Can anyone explain to me why an SUV is shaped like this or why anyone thinks it is a good idea to put a spoiler on an SUV?
Geez, I thought the X6 was shitty but fuck look at this thing! No wonder they don't have the X-series in Europe (other than the few other obvious reasons, ofc).
The Mercedes GLA is just as fucking bad. But at least they didn't start this shitty trend and just capitalised on a market that was already there.

It wouldn't work for long. It would respond to heat linearly. It'd be too runny when hot and/or too viscous when cold so the engine would die.

Does it matter to run distilled or not for strictly flushing? It'll be changed out with proper distilled coolant mix after.

Also I'm kind of curious about the heater core.. It'd be rather difficult to flush that with distilled.
>>
>>15644333
>for strictly flushing
Doubt it. Tap water won't be in there long enough to do anything bad.
>coolant mix
Unless you have some really funky, full of minerals tap water, distilled water isn't necessary. Coolants have additives to keep reasonable amounts of minerals and stuff in solution.

>>15644415
It's like Fram vs Wix, distilled is still ultra cheap, might as well use distilled.

There's obviously a 240sx, but would importing a R32 GTS-t a better option? Or what would be a better choice?

Redpill me on these /o/. Price seems cheap, too cheap in fact. Is there probably something wrong or is this gen of Z pieces of shit that nobody cares about.

It's an unrestored 40 year old economy sport sedan $3600 doesn't seem cheap at all in fact I'd expect it to be in above average condition at that price, which is what he's claiming. It seems solid so if you have the money plus a thousand in the bank and a hundred or so every month to keep feeding the fairlady, go for it assuming you're aware of how spartan old cars are.
