Weight or HP

>>16559030
1970 Dodge Challenger + 200hp
Because I like it.

>>16559030
>100kg
Is that like pesos?

>100kg lighter
Pt cruiser srt4
>200hp more
Any v6 muscle car

>>16559030
Lighter car is cheaper and consumes less fuel, but has lower top speed.
Most powerful car is more expensive and consumes more fuel, but has higher top speed.

It's all up to you.

An extra 220lbs is a negligible weight for most vehicles. If we were talking an extra 1000lbs then it would be an issue.

Why is this even choice, of course you'd take the extra 200hp.

>>16559074
weight affects acceleration, braking and cornering.

you get a little of everything instead of a lot of acceleration.

+200 hp and then strip interior
I win

>>16559030
Is this one of those trick questions?
Depends how powerful the car is. If it only makes 100whp then another 200 will make a hell of a difference.

Geo Fucking Metro

Light Geo for EM PEE GEEZ

Stronk Geo for beating the pants off almost any other car

Suzuki cappuchino, already is light and with 266hp it would be a serious sports car.
With 100kg less, it would be a insane downhill maschine.

>NSX Type R

Ultralight version
500 HP version

Seems like a good time to be had by all.

>100kg (240 pounds) is even remotely equivalent to 200hp
fucking retarded

You misunderstood the question
>>16559074
100kg is a heck of a lot of weight to lose. Think a 900kg turbo miata

>>16559368
So a 235 WHP Geo Metro.
It'll still get good mileage.

How is that fucking a question cunt. 100 kg is nothing

>Torque and Weight
Nothing else matters

>>16559078
>>16559368
220 lbs is the weight of a extra passenger + seat in most cars, again a slight percentage for most cars on the road, and something that won't be that noticable in anything but track driving, and even then can be compensated with proper driving technique

Also Op, didn't state what the car was going to be used for.

Fun fact: a 2 ton e39 m5 was able to pull .95 on the skid pad on 90s tires.

200hp is worth way more than 100kg

>>16560292
That depends on the track and on the car.
If you already have grip problems under acceleration most of the time and a light car, 100kg less would be better than 200 hp more.

>An extra 220lbs is a negligible weight for most vehicles.

I can feel a pretty big change in performance going from a half talk to a full tank or having my bike in the back.
When you have a shitty power to weight ratio every little bit of weight counts.

>>16559449
Get a Lanz Bulldog, if only torque and weight would matter, that would be the best vehicle for you.
It is a 10.3L twostroke diesel with a redline of 750 rpm.

I have a fwd shitbox so 320hp would probably be excessive and make driving it unfun. But it would be more fun if it only weighed 2300lbs

FUCKING MIATA ND
Choose: An already super light, low HP car, with either less mass or more HP.
Either: ~1875 lbs, 155 HP. ~12.1 lbs/HP.
OR
2100 lbs, 355 HP. ~5.9 lbs/HP

Jesus fuck if that is at all a question to anyone they're insane.

>>16560616
I think >>16559320
would be even better...

>>16560647
Actually the Miata slightly edges it out, with the Miata's 5.9 vs. the Cappy's 6.0

That said, it's so close I'm not sure if it matters. At that point all that matters is handling.

Oops.

>>16560655
The cappuchino is still a even lighter even smaller cornering machine than the ND.
Also a so small car can take a different line than the other cars.
