What is the appeal? It seems "German engineering" is all about maximizing HP/L and cheating EPA mileage tests by putting big turbos on small engines and then shoving 30 lbs of boost into them. If I care about HP/L I can just bolt some turbos onto a Modular 4V and get superior meme statistics with much better reliability. Is German engineering just to impress and make money off of normies/benchracers/richfags who know nothing about cars?
Same appeal as letting ahmed creampie your wifw and daughters.
none of the above applies to the M2, Cayman S or any 911
kys fag
sour grapes etc.

Holy shit that exhaust. Even a v6 accord has a better fake dual exhaust system.
>>17509254
M2 has fake engine noise and an on-off throttle. Can't speak for the steering though no modern BMW I've driven has impressed me.
Porsche is the only good German manufacturer.
>>17509259
>>17509234
Pretty sure that's an AMG clone, not an actual AMG.
>>17509234
We've already established that's a fake
>>17509267
Doesn't change the fact that most modern Mercedes and Audi's have fake exhausts
>>17509271
More like fake tips at best, Honda can't even do those anymore
They're there to protect the bumper from heat
>>17509234
>fake engine noise
Why do they do this? Help why do SO FUCKING MANY car makers do this?
>went to a dealership
>test drove a 335i
>dealer says stupid shit like "wow listen to that engine roar"
>he was baffled when I called it fake engine noises through the speakers
>>17509280
>people want quiet cars
>manufacturers make quiet cars
>people whine that they can't hear the engine
>manufacturers pipe in fake engine noises
Same shit with CVTs with fake shift points and the Tesla Model S with a creep mode to fake a torque convertor. People are used to a certain experience and find anything different uncomfortable
>>17509276
That's a load of horseshit and you know it
>what's this, the new Audi """"sports"""" crossover?
>>17509295
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA-
*breathe*
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>>17509304
>implying Germans are the only ones that do this
>>17509271
But is that fake or real carbon fiber surrounding it?
Most people who buy a German badged car, never pop the hood nor would they know what they were looking at if they did. Their understanding starts and stops at that stupid badge on the front.
>>17509254
M2 fags are the worse

In america everything is fake

>"""German Engineering"""
ITT: Americans who think that exhaust pipe aesthetics are "engineering"
No wonder American cars are so shit.
>>17509530
there's no way you can blame this on americans kraut
>>17509234
The Germans aren't the only ones who do this
the type R has retarded as fuck styling with fake vents, 3 exhaust tips, and two rear spoilers
>>17509536
>reading comprehension
>>17509547
The spoilers on the Type R are actually functional and the 3 exhaust tips cut out droning, Ferrari does the same thing
>>17509254
>german engineering
>posts car with PSA engine
>>17509234
>fake engine noise
what?
>>17509666
I doubt the spoilers are functional, the top one is bendable as fuck. And the exhaust isn't loud enough to cause drone.
>>17509683
Everything aero on the car is functional
>the exhaust isn't loud enough to cause drone
That's not how it works. Drone is caused by our entire exhaust resonating at a certain rpm figure, usually at cruising speeds. That's why it goes away at higher rpms
>>17509696
In any case, it looks like ass
>>17509300
why fucking bother omg
>>17509719
Nice opinion, doesn't change the fact that it's functional
>>17509234
>bespoke tools
>cant do anything outside of specialized shop
>can't do anything without the car recording it
>>17509756
they could've made it functional without making it look like shit
>>17509762
Try doing it yourself without resorting to resonators and heavy as fuck and restrictive mufflers
>>17509683
>I doubt the spoilers are functional
GOOGLE it nigga. Don't just make assumptions
>>17509234
Please please tell me that picture is fake. There is no way that's a real thing on a production AMG car.
Please.
>>17509843
It's fake. Come poorfag trying to dress up him C250 as a C63

Why yuros, why.
>>17509683
>Flexible aero is not functional
Fucking summer, even the FIA banned it since it reduces drag
>>17509680
Pretty much every single new BMW sounds like garbage, so they just put fake engine noise through the speakers. The only car to do this right is the Clio RS since it lets you switch the engine noise from economy car/5cyl rally car/V12 supercar/V8 muscle/etc.
>>17509234
There he is again, the poorfag American who is so jelly about people who can buy nice german cars that he starts this thread with this fake picture over and over again. Stay mad in your shity inferior American car while german cars pull girls all day.
>>17510124
>pulling girls
More like shooting them lel
>>17509530
kek, they worry more about how it looks than how it runs
