Those are poorfag states. Come to Texas, lots of good cars here

we don't care about cars here, they're just transportation devices.
>>14113665
Texas is mostly Saudi's and oil tycoons with exotics.
>>14113673
this
what fucking roads are we supposed to drive performance cars on
>>14113680
travelling on a 2 lane highway, and stucked behind the Prius, the left lane is a truck, Prius is travelling at the same speed with the truck
>>14113677
This is true, and anything older than 25 years old is pretty much trashed. Lots of shitty Mustangs and Corvettes if you want to see that though. I see one on every street pretty much.

American gas is shit. Its why NOS is barely used in other countries
>>14113770
I would eat glass for the 70 series land cruiser
USA only get the shitty ones.
>>14114410
lmao
Because in America, we don't drive our cars. We live in them 2+ hours a day. We use cars like yuropeans use mass transit: as an appliance.
Cupholders, audio systems, comfy seats, high quality climate control etc. ends up being more important than anything else.
People here who complain that self-driving cars will be the end of "car culture" totally miss the point. Car Culture is not sitting in commuter traffic or the drive-thru line staring at the ass end of a Camry... but that's 90% of what American drivers do.
>>14114410
Our gas is lower octane than most other countries, because we adopted unleaded gas before most everyone else. That's also the main reason our malaise era engines were running 8:1 compression while european imports were 10:1 or higher. The US's regular unleaded has been locked in at 87 AKI (~90 RON) since 1972 - but europe didn't adopt universal catalytic converters or go lead-free until the early 90's, by which time unleaded gas was much better than it had been in the 70's.
Maybe a eurofag can chime in and tell me what your regular unleaded octane rating is - wikipedia says it's usually 95 RON / 91 AKI but I don't trust it.
That has absolutely nothing to do with NOS, though.
The Prius can actually be quick, has a ton of starting torque, and should be used appropriately and often. Seriously the car can, surprisingly, have traction issues with good tires. I shouldn't see other Priuses crawling like snails holding up a line of 20 people. Plus that hatch is big enough to haul engines, transmissions, and other parts for my other fun cars. Good car targeted at bad audience.
why do people from texas pretend their state is anything but a shit hole? middle america sucks, period. no way around it.

Or the opposite:

>getting tailgated by Prius
>Prius switches lane then merges back into lane infront of you and slow down to under speed limit
FUCKING CUNTS.
Prius are the most common car i see pulled over too here in Ca
>>14114547
yes regular is 95RON in Germany, premium is 97RON, but the likes of Shell offer 98 and 99RON
FYI generally the RON figures are 5-6 points higher than AKI
>>14113649
You are an idiot for thinking this.
What the hell gave you that impression? Top Gear?
>>14114547
You're a fucking idiot, we just rate it differently. I think NOS just got popular because it was a super cheap power adder for drag racing.

>>14113677

>>14114706
Most of the states in the country are shit with a couple bright spots here and there.
>>14113649
didn't you watch the first top gear US special? Thanks to the boomers, any muscle car that's in useable shape will be $40,000+
If a prius was modified to have a tesla motor it would beat most cars on the street
>>14114105

why the fuck would anyone want to
>>14113649
Next time go to Switzerland.
Everybody is rish as fuck.
Everbody owns luxury car.
Still got speed limit of 75mp/h, so they all go to Germany to polute the Autobahn.
>>14115064
And weirdly Switzerland is one of the hot spots for American cars in Europe, not just weekend rides but also daily drivers.

Yeah, it's the cars of the american immigrants who work as maids for the rich swiss people.
>>14115172
Affording something in that nice of condition as a maid? Fuckin' shit the salary must be good.
>>14115012
failed bait
>>14114808
Rating difference between AKI and RON does not make up for the entire difference.
USA mid-grade is roughly the same as EU regular or old USA leaded regular.
>>14115172
>American immigrants lol
>I bet most of the maids come from Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania
>most probably most of them drives Peugeot or Citroens.

this is why I love 4chan, the hivemind of it all.
it just begins with a thought, shitpost or delusion. since Texas is a relevant state, oil known what does 4chan think? surely it must be infested with saudis and tycoons!
these two are spoken like true fucking idiots. never been to a place, but they harp like they've lived there, been there. it's fucking funny. retard pseudo know it alls.
>>14113665
Texas is a shithole. Also leave the city, OP.
>>14113649
A lot of old cars didn't survive C4C.
America tends to hate old things.
We ruin our old cars, we ruin our old buildings, we ruin anything pre-2000 because it's "dated" and "has to go".
And anyone who admits to liking old stuff gets memed to death with "nostalgiafag", "le wrong jennyration" and "you dropped your fedora".
If Americans ran the world, everything the Greeks, Romans & Egyptians made would be leveled without a second thought.
>>14116132
How's that bubble you live in where everything you just said was true?
>>14116132
Yes, which is why boomers overcharging on their old muscle cars is a meme on this board you fucking idiot.
>>14113649
Did Canada to NYC, rent Charger because I want to feel american spirit.
Drive in slowest moving traffic in the world surrounded with same shitboxes as in Europe just that every diesel car is replaced with Prius.
Unrelated but - me like niggers, listen to rap. Got to petrol station near NYC, nigger takes my credit card, does something in the back but I got card back. A month later credit card expense for laptop bought in Egypt.
Charger was nice tho, 10/10 would DD.
>>14116182
>V6 Charger
I'll admit if I was fine with automatic and needed four doors the R/T would be at the top of my list; the newer ones are nice
>>14116182
You brought that on yourself for going to a metro shithole like NYC.
>>14113800
They're australians newfag.
>>14113649
Were in in the middle of a large city in California? I live in a pretty basic upper middle class suburb and I'd have to say the most common cars here are large pickups, small to mid size luxo cars like the 3 series or E-Class, V8 SUVs, a few Jap crossovers and sedans, and a bunch of muscle cars. It's pretty varied here. I'd say that only a 1/5th of vehicles here muscle cars, but that's still a pretty big percentage. Lot's of old fat boomers and Mexicans have classic cars here too.
>>14116182
>nigger takes my credit card, does something in the back but I got card back. A month later credit card expense for laptop bought in Egypt.

Well there's your problem.

our country is big and it takes a huge amount of gas to do everyday nonsense. One of our states can be the size of your little euroshit countries and we have 50 well populated states
>>14116123
>never been to a place, but they harp like they've lived there, been there. it's fucking funny. retard pseudo know it alls.
Just like >>14113665.
Tennessee ranks higher than Texas does for wealthiest city or county and KC has a great car scene and Johnson County Kansas was voted one of the top 10 places to live and work.
But you're just a filthy Texan that has to rub elbows with spics and is just jelly of my crime rate that's 45% below the national average.
>>14118694
Texas was full of trucks and Muscle cars last time I went there
>>14116182
>giving your credit card to some nigger at a gas station
>letting him walk off and out of sight with your credit card
How fucking mild are you? You yell at that nigger, tell him not to take your card like that. Tell him he can do whatever he needs to do right in front of you, which should be nothing more than swipe the card in the machine. Most places shouldn't even require you to give them the card, they are supposed to let you swipe it.
Leave it to some eurocuck to get fucked over by genuine American niggerdom.
>>14113649
>some euro visits the states

Maybe if you want a fully restored, numbers matching, big block car with a manual transmission and the highest trim option.
A lot of muscle cars are around 10-20k in good shape. Not exactly ridiculous when a paint job costs 6-8k to do somewhat properly.
>>14119788
demolished the market for what? hatchbacks?
Seriously, what world do you live in where every car before 2000 was scrapped in CFC?
