Any similar setups with red needles on white backgrounds and a basic layout are pretty much top tier.

So /o/,

I have a lease that's going to end in August (btw never lease a car, that was a goddamn mistake) but I also own a NA Miata.

I have a commute that's 56 miles a day that involves heavy traffic which can be stop and go mostly. Im putting $2k away each month and by say November I should have around $10k. I was looking for a high mpg vehicle within that price range.

I could daily the miata but the safety and high miles it has is a bit concerning (158k).

Would you recommend any reliable, high mpg cars that that might work for me? In NY we have hov access for hybrids if that means anything

I never really understood the purpose of leasing a car. Whats the benifit?Feels lile just spending a ton if money just to give up your car.Although buying a used formerly leased car worked out for me quite well.
>>
>>15358171

The way I see it, its a lot like rent a apartment. You pay money into it and never get ownership, but sometimes all you need is a car to move from home to work and back again. You never need to fix it, you never need to worry about it, and in a year or three you move onto a new model with all the bells and whistles.

Just like renting an apartment, when the roof leaks I don't need to do anything other than call up the landlord.
>>
>>15358171
Leasing is the better option when it comes to cars like S classes and 7 series luxobarges that depreciate at an amazing rate. In the end you'll be out less money.

What kind of engines/transmissions do busses have?

all sorts of stuff

>>
>>15357726
depends which manufacturer but ones i know use big ass Allisons.

>>15357726
Is that a real bus?

If so, how is that practical or efficient? At most it can seat 13 people, including the driver. A Ford Transit or similar can seat up to 15 and have a much smaller powertrain. Plus it already exists. Someone would have had to design that to some extent. Why would the bus company do that knowing their competition is far superior. It's not like it's more off-road worthy or anything.

So many questions...

Hey guys, I'm a car scrub and I've been researching for 8 hours on cars and I still don't understand anything I'm reading. I need your help.

My first and current car is a 2003 Ford Focus which I love, so I was thinking of just getting a 2016 model, but I heard the new transmissions or automatics or something are shit in the new models. Is this true?

What are the best 2016 hatchbacks under 25k?

I own a 2016 focus base model autotragic and have no issues for the 50k I've put on it already
>>
>>15357723
In the USA literally the only hot hatches I can even think of in that price range that are worth considering will be the Golf GTI or Fiesta ST. Although I feel like I must be forgetting one.

If you're willing to buy an older model year instead, golf R or the previous gen WRX hatches (2011-2014) would be in your budget.
>>
automatic in the focus was pretty awful. had one as a rental and couldn't stand it, slow shifts and the gearbox literally seemed confused all the time

taking my driving test in a couple hours. Live in america, texas specifically. For anyone who has taken one recently, what exactly do they test you on when it comes to the road test? I have decent driving experience. All I know about is seatbelt, mirrors, turn signals, parallel and regular parking, general road awareness.

Top speed, fastest acceleration, and fastest braking. Extra points if you drift.
>>
It's basically just making sure you remember what you were taught in driver's ed and that you can handle the car. Expecting normal driving around, stopping/turning at red lights, parallel parking, backing up in a straight line, choosing the right lane, etc. Try to drive "by the book" rather than what makes sense in reality. I got penalized for "stopping in a crosswalk" when if I hadn't I wouldn't have been able to safely see around traffic.

What actually happens is up to the tester. One guy takes his road test and the DMV dude just has him drive to the street to get him donuts. Another guy takes his test and has to parallel park a 5-speed on a steep hill in traffic.
>>
>>15357697

Also, all the stuff you mentioned. Always use turn signals and make a big show out of checking your blindspots and mirrors while you're driving.

So I've been looking to get an upgrade over my FRS and there are a few cars out there that have caught my eye. I was looking at the 370z but the fact is that car is old as fuck and needs a redesign and even the interior looks outdated at this point.

Then I found the 2016 Camaro RS with V6 which was a turn off because it's not the V8 until I actually saw the performance of the car. The engine revs up to around 7200rpm, the cars exhaust sounds phenominal, it gets good MPG and it goes 0-60 in 5.1 seconds, also the tranny has short throws and it seems like a solid upgrade over the FRS as the redesigned Camaro handles great.

Comparing that to the SS which is 7,000-10,000$ more expensive, it's only around .8 seconds faster off the line + worse fuel mileage and I'm not sure how anybody can justify spending 40,000$+ on a Camaro but for the price difference the V6 to me makes the most sense from a price to performance ratio - especially considering the V6 runs the quarter mile in 13.5.

I know there's a lot of people out there that will shit talk the V6 but the engine seems fun as fuck, sounds great, and the Camaro is practically a sports car now anyway.

What do you guys think about it? What other V6 cars offer this same level of performance to price?

Why though? The V6 runs 0-60 in 5.1, the quartermile in 13.5, has an insanely good price point, a high revving fun engine, a great transmision, a really nice interior.

Like I don't understand this mindset. Yes the V8 is better, and yes I have the money to get the V8. But how do you justify spending like 10,000$ more for it? Why would you even buy a V8 Camaro for 40,000$ when there are better options?

With the V6 price point there are no better options available. The Turboboost mustang is the only comparable car that will give the same performance for that price point. Find me a V6 engine that runs 0-60 in 5.1 and revs at 7200RPM stock

I used to think the same way as you but after looking at the performance and reviews it's really hard for me to understand this old school mindset.

What are your opinions on the Hyundai Equus?

I have a gut feeling that I want this car. I think it offers a good amount of features for the least amount of money while compared with it's other competitors like S-Class, 7 series, LS, etc which makes me say Hyundai kind off nailed it.

Anyone have driven it? How does it feel? What were your initial thoughts vs final thoughts?

poor man's s-class but I heard they are great bang for the buck.

i'd probably drive one if I was into new luxury cars and wouldn't like used cars that much.
