I swear people that think auto is better just do not know how to match revs when changing gears, Autos have no engine braking and do not select the right gear until half way around a corner, in other words an auto is harder on the brakes and means you come out of corners slower...

You're fucking retarded. He obviously said that your car being manual doesn't automagically make it faster than an auto, that's all dependent on the the driver's skill.

>>13848082

But of course not, you fucking faggot, but then again, machine IS better than man. and CVTs have been proving to have better acceleration performance than great drivers as of lately.

>>13848140

>>13848140
Because engine size has nothing to do with power. There are 1.0s going to nearly 200 bhp NA with the right tunning, back in the 60's and 70's 300 bhp was "a lot" for a V8.

Lol, only the most most powerful 304 45 litres from the factory (apart from the twin throttle Group A variants) were the 185 and 195kW HSVs. The regular Holden 5 litre was typically around 160-170kW.

Really depends on how the car handles auto gear shifts as well as what gears the car has and if it has cruise control. You can, in theory, get the same efficiency of a manual through cruise control, but its risky on some roads as well as overly tedious in some cars doing that.

Yes it does. It matters a whole fucking lot
>1.0l n/a making 200bhp
In some bikes, none in cars. Those bikes have to rev to 15k to get all of that power. If you had a 4.0l which flowed the same amount of air at a given rpm, and could rev that high it would make probably 4 times that much hp.

>>13848166
On the contrary, that's my problem. CVTs are proven to accelerate faster with no diasdvantage other than the "THEORY" that they brake slower or different from manuals. But i believe that racing competitions should not be held with CVTs, Autos, Sequentials, but with pure unadultered manuals. Fuck having F1 racing teams manipulate in real time the HP output and the aerodynamics of the car, let the driver handle himself, let him use the clutch, what's the point about making him change gears if you want to eliminate the clutch pedal.

I didn't think about that. A 4.0l V8 would, if it revved the same and flowed the same amount of air at a given rpm with the same compression ratio and so forth.

>>13848223
Couldn't agree anymore. Its not like i hate or look down on automatics and CVTs, but motorsports are not about taking as much power and acceleration as you can out of an car, its about making sure that the driver is the main advantage/disadvantage when racing, and manuels can only reassure that

>>13848208

Fug. I'm too drunk. I can't even type my posts right anymore.

And look at them! They are making 450, 500 bhp. I didn't said engine size wasn't insignificant, i said technology was the MAIN driving force.

>>13848243
I personally think automatics are boring and the only reason I own one is because long drives and shitty city driving.

>>13848251
Plz reed>>13848248

>>13848251
But a 6.0l V8 with the same technology as one of those 1.0l inline 4 bikes will make way more power. Most modern V8s don't use "technology" because they are tuned for low end and mid range, and because they are cheap. N/A super car V8s make tons of power for their displacement

>>13848002
Gas is why
>>13848207
But most highschoolers where i live do drive v8s from last decade.

>>13848269
Yes. But it seems you still dont understand what i just fucking wrote.


Technology is the MAIN DRIVING FORCE behind taking more BHP out of an engine, no fucking shit a 6.0 V8 with modern technology will destroy a 1.0 or a 2.0 L4, but there are people out there that think a V8 from the fucking 1950s will destroy any other engine no matter what time just because its a big V8.

Gays/traps are even more annoying then women and degenerate as well.

I find it odd how they always scream and cry about how sexuality is something you are born with and therefore we should accept them because their sickness is natural and normal- but many times, as seen in this post, they are always trying to 'convert' straight dudes.

If sexuality is something you are born with respect that straight dudes arent interested and cut out shitty comments like this. Otherwise admit its a choice and your all a bunch of disgusting aids ridden faggots.

my friend once suggested that BMW should make sports cars because "they look nice and cost a lot anyway"

>>13850276
depends on who it is. someone you actually care about, push harder, if else, just walk away. also, does the car actually have to be replaced, or is it just a case of wanting something new?

>>13850303
and things like M3/4 and the Z4 isnt sports cars now or what?

>>13850307

The Cordoba is fucking shit and a hazard. I've helped get her new brakes, decent tires and whatnot, but it has constant electrical issues, shitty crash protection and rusts even more than my Merc

I'll probably just take her to a used car-lot and have her test out cars of both type, tell her the price difference for ownership and let her try to park something like a Patrol versus a Civic with a rearview camera

>>13850276
Honda HR-V? Although it looks more like a Duplo block than tough.

Try a motorbike. Gives the train a run for its money, and its waaay faster. Never worry about parking again, get free first position at traffic lights and better enough, get a vehicle that can both be a sensible DD with good mpg and destroy the shit out of most cars both in straights and in bends.
