Are real sports cars worth owning? Why not have a perfectly

>>16370823

Because a 5 million dollar simulator will never ever come close to the tactile feel of even a $500 shitbox. I bet you think a fleshlight is close enough to "the real thing" too.

>>16370844
but new cars don't have any feeling

they all weigh 3500lbs and have electronics that take all the feeling and control away

Get a used car from the 90s or early 00s instead of a new one, like a NA miata or a BMW E36.

bungee jumping is more expensive then going on a rollercoaster fucking retard

what a fucking stupid reply

>>16370920
As a track car it is worth the risk, as a DD you yould think about some upgrade.
Also if you crash at 200km/h or 125 mph the safety standards don´t matter ar all, you are dead anyway.

>>16370925
Why do that when I can drive every vehicle ever made and not die in the comfort of my home?

>>16370932
>you yould think about some upgrade

Yeah, it's called buying a new car that won't fucking kill you genius.

You think your average otist has or can afford the safety modifications of a track car? They don't.

>>16370947
The average /o/tist doesn´t care that much about safety.
If you drive fast enough, no car is safe.

>drive fast enough

New cars have speed limiters and the ones with excellent scores are safe in 99% of accidents up to those speeds

Do whatever you want. Want to race in simulation? Go ahead. Want the real thing? Go ahead. Its the american way.

>>16370980
>speed limiters
Yes, but they are usually at 250km/h.
If you crash at this speed, you wont survive in any vehicle.
If you want to have fun, you usually don´t drive slower than ~150 most of the time, wich gets you killed in pretty much any vehicle since the amount of energy increases by square relative to the speed.

>comparing cars to bikes

yep, another post proving that bikers are the biggest fucking cunts

uninformed too
protip: because of the way physics and the way you have to shift to even have a resemblance of turning ability you actually get less forces on a bike

and due to less contact point with the road you can't feel the road as well as in the car, unless we are talking about cars set for comfort

just because your fucking face is so close to the road doesn't mean "you can feel it", faggot

depends on which tyre completely loses traction, you're either on your arse, or flying through the sky then on your arse.

All good fun mind you.

>>16371185
I didn't compare them, they're incomparable in the amounts of feedback you receive, motorcycle forks are essentially holding the front wheel in your hands, you feel every motion of the bike, it responds to your body weight, your natural instinctive movements, you cannot get anything close to that in a car.

My knee is actually touching the ground, I am literally connected to the road, so no, there is no comparison, lol.

Yeah, I'm gonna pass on that and just drive a car that immediately regains traction without me falling because I'm too dumb to afford 4 tires.

that's your prerogative but that's part of the equation that makes bikes fuck your brain up with dopamine. The ever present risk and the joy of balancing on the knife's edge.

Can't love the ups without the downs, to get the bigger ups you need the bigger downs.

there is nothing natural in driving a bike

>part of the equation that makes bikes fuck your brain up with dopamine
Being too fucking retarded to use 4 tires for performance driving requires no equation

>balancing on the knife's edge
Or just buy something that has 4 tires. In what world do you think leaning an entire chassis and tires over their sidewall to barely getting any cornering force is good when you can just have 4 tires and have million times more stability and grip?

I'll do you one better, I've never driven a car with electric steering ever, most of my cars have been unassisted period. I've been driving cars since I was 12 years old starting with bush bashing in a paddy basher lol.

already done, did it there first.

>>16371322
it's just not as fun, what can I say?

>>16370823
They are.
There's nothing like the feeling of having a roaring V8 beast only barely keeping traction as it launches forward.
Or going sideways as the same V8 beast loses traction.

A Mustang or F-body can be bought for $5000.

>>16371036
That's an early 2000's focus.
But that's to be expected. It's 124 mph against a solid barrier.
That car probably couldn't even go that fast.

bullshit, buy something that isn't a shitbox and you'll find plenty. Electric assisted steering hurting driving feel is only an issue if it's overdone. most sporty cars have fixed that

because then you lose the whole "death" risk.

>>16371322
>what is centrifugal force

the bike wants to stand upright, it remains stable when you lean it over until well past 45 degrees.

the faster you go, the more stable you are.

Crying 'hurr durr less tyres'' just proves you have no idea what you're on about.

Seeing you have such an emotional response to all of this is rather funny desu.
