The new electric SUV Ford Mustang is a bigger disgrace to cars than an LS swapped RX-7.

2020-11-22 21:39:14 UTC  

LS swapped RX-7 is only acceptable if the rotary engine is damaged to an extent where it is unreasonable to repair

2020-11-22 21:39:42 UTC  

I can understand that.

2020-11-22 21:40:17 UTC  

But is seems like a lot of car companies now are just dragging their legacy through the mud...

2020-11-22 21:40:36 UTC  

Yeah

2020-11-22 21:40:48 UTC  

Cough cough new Supra

2020-11-22 21:41:58 UTC  

The Chevy Impala went from full born dragster to full boring drag sir.

2020-11-22 21:42:21 UTC  

Yep

2020-11-22 21:43:38 UTC  

I wish there were more auto companies paying homage to their history not destroying it.

2020-11-22 21:44:12 UTC  

I also wish there was a way for electric motors to sound cool.

2020-11-22 21:44:31 UTC  

Some how classic toy trains did it.

2020-11-22 21:45:34 UTC  

Most car manufacturers have actually taken to playing engine noises through the speakers of the car. Some even put small speakers outside for the same purpose.

2020-11-22 21:45:46 UTC  

A buzzy low pitch electrical growl with a powerful whine as it got faster.

2020-11-22 21:47:53 UTC  

This is a 1957 toy train and all the sounds you’re hearing are coming from the little 25 volt AC motor.

@slogs I think that if they had put more power behind the GT86, then it would have been more of a Supra than what we currently have.

2020-11-22 21:49:02 UTC  

Yeah

2020-11-22 21:49:19 UTC  

Imagine if electric cars sounded like this train but more awesome?

2020-11-22 21:49:59 UTC  

Formula E cars sound great, but they're also going much faster than highway speeds.

Looks cool, but I think if you want to talk trains we should go to arts and crafts or photography.

2020-11-22 23:22:53 UTC  

yeah, shame there's no place they properly fit in on here

2020-11-22 23:25:11 UTC  

The only reason I mentioned toy trains here because I think the old ones from the 1930’s and 50’s have a really cool electric motor sound that might be awesome if electric cars had a similar engine noise.

2020-11-22 23:31:30 UTC  

Of course my picture doesn't show but it actually has the diesel sounds etc. But still goes back to what I said that there isn't really a place on the server where we won't be basically spamming something that is barely on topic.

2020-11-23 00:17:49 UTC  

Yeah... I posted my newest train set in the arts and crafts section if you want to take a look.

2020-11-23 00:59:54 UTC  

I'm looking at a Audi RS 4, Insurance company says you can't have a new car with all the safety features. Have to get something older and for me it has to be powerful.

2020-11-23 01:03:41 UTC  

Hmm...

2020-11-23 01:05:06 UTC  

You say it needs to be powerful, what other qualities are you looking for in a car? Where are you and what environment will you be driving it in? @TheWhooo

2020-11-23 01:10:22 UTC  

I’m in California so finding cars here will be a lot different than cars you might find in your area.

2020-11-23 01:13:06 UTC  

Oh wow... this is rare.

This is an extremely rare 1983 Dodge Mirada.

2020-11-23 01:14:27 UTC  

It it’s in my home town and only $3500.

2020-11-23 01:15:49 UTC  

This is a weird little guy...

A 1989 Subaru GL Turbo 4WD.

2020-11-23 01:17:16 UTC  

It only has 131 HP, but it gets over 25 MPG.

2020-11-23 01:18:23 UTC  

No safety features other than the automatic seatbelts.

2020-11-23 01:19:12 UTC  

It’s $3900 and has 145,000 miles on the clock.

2020-11-23 01:19:54 UTC  

Wow, get a load of this engine.

the new supra may not be related to the a80 supra but its still underrated and fast

2020-11-23 03:18:13 UTC  

Say, this is a nice lookin’ truck.
