Cheap, Reliable, Fast - Pick 2

2018-07-12 00:28:14 UTC  

Some of the most popular cars amongst milennials are the Renegade and Rogue Sport. Let's be real, milennials give no shits about speed.

2018-07-12 00:28:28 UTC  

*It's so cute though!!*

2018-07-12 00:29:20 UTC  

What milennials want is cheap, long-range, luxurious, and long-lasting.

2018-07-12 00:29:35 UTC  

In addition to green cred

2018-07-12 00:29:51 UTC  

Thing is, if you have the former four, you're not getting a car with the last one

2018-07-12 00:29:53 UTC  

I planted a tree once, is that green enough?

2018-07-12 04:38:33 UTC  

Protip: Porsche V8s are light sleepers

this baby can go for miles by the gallon

Keep it to the track you freaks

2018-07-12 11:43:07 UTC  

keep it to the freaks you track

meh it's a haybusa smart car

people do that in their garage

2018-07-12 13:24:14 UTC  

I imagine the transmission is significantly more useable and it won't have the torque issues bike engine conversions often have

2018-07-12 15:03:47 UTC  

also I didn't think of this earlier but that v8 conversion is a lot more work than smart car engine swaps since the cygnet would originally have been fwd

2018-07-12 19:43:54 UTC  

The Lexus RC-F is the one true modern Supra, change my mind.

2018-07-12 20:20:36 UTC  

it doesn't have a manual option.

2018-07-12 20:22:12 UTC  

it also doesn't have an i6

2018-07-12 20:23:36 UTC  

I don't think it has a turbo option either

2018-07-12 20:53:57 UTC  

Still more of a Toyota than that BMW abomination they're bring to production.

2018-07-12 20:54:42 UTC  

but not a supra

2018-07-12 20:54:57 UTC  

I doubt toyota will ever reincarnate the supra really

2018-07-12 20:58:01 UTC  

Well it's 100 Toyota but doesn't fill the same role.

2018-07-12 21:00:51 UTC  

True on both accounts.

But still, this Gazoo BMW shit pisses me off. Its like the transsexual of cars.

2018-07-12 21:02:24 UTC  

Yeah, I do think it's just a real cop-out that a manufacturer with the motorsport experience and engineering resources Toyota has can't develop a new version of their flagship car in house.

2018-07-12 21:02:28 UTC  

That I definitely don't disagree on.

2018-07-12 21:02:39 UTC  

I mean they made the LFA 8 years ago.

2018-07-12 21:03:48 UTC  

I want this car to somehow still end up being really good, but I don't feel like modern BMW has much positive to contribute to it.

2018-07-12 21:04:06 UTC  

At least if you saw this Goodwood footage it sounds good, and it looks physically small.

2018-07-12 21:07:01 UTC  

Slap a straight 6 into an 86, like the first gen Supra.

2018-07-12 21:08:17 UTC  

I don't think the gt86 needs that, the gt86 just needs a turbo

2018-07-12 21:08:27 UTC  

and besides the gt86 is a subaru really

2018-07-12 21:08:56 UTC  

again, toyota seem to have lost the plot for in house development

2018-07-12 21:08:57 UTC  

I just think the whole thing with all the outsourcing is really weird, considering they make the extremely good Lexus engines and platforms fully in house, but yeah the 86 is its own thing.

2018-07-12 21:09:00 UTC  

The 86 body was developed by Toyota, with Subaru supplying the engine

2018-07-12 21:09:24 UTC  

Subaru manufactures the whole thing though.

2018-07-12 21:09:41 UTC  

because apparently toyota can't design a good engine?
