Ok then, As for BMW, read till end. I said, if you look carefully BMW hasn't got automatic listed under serial production, it's an option. German - Zusatzbehör Under famous multitronic, was refering to famous audis automatic since multitronic is one of the best and even it is worse than manual equi...

OK, where do I start . . . - Why don't you compare the Mercedes models for me? I don't have the time, and the link you gave me isn't even in English. - BMW does have automatic transmissions. They also have the SMG, which is an automised manual gearbox. - I'm not even going to bother with Volvos. - ...

Accualy there are more disadvantages with automatic than with manual. Less efficient acceleration, lower top speed, HIGHER gas consumption (very important), delayed responce in taking over (an experienced driver is gonna give a great minus because of that), higher price plus much easier to break, a...

Define ''normal driving''. Driving round a city/town? Automatics are easier, more efficient and generally less hassle than their manual equivalents. Straight line performance? The Supras Gehtrag auto box is actually quicker from second gear up than is humanly possible, hence why a guy I know has ru...

like 99% of the people in europe drive a manual. Well that's news to me. btw, autos are getting pretty good now and they don't have slow/rough changes or hold the wrong gear. In fact they're getting so good that manuals are becoming extinct (in my part of the world anyway). I'm quite suprised that ...

i dont know if it works or not, but in the rocky movies his strategy is to tire the opponent out by letting him hit him, and taunts the opponent about how weak his punch is so they'll punch until they're tired and then he takes him out. This is only good if you ever saw your opponent fight or if it...

I say we agree because I was talking about circuit racing not just 1/4 mille or geting to 60mph or top speed. I'd like to see an E class to take on turns as a GT2 does. It wouldn't. it's too big and heavy to do that. It won't because it isn't built to do that. Although your comparison isn't so good...

I used to kickbox back at high school. But nowadays pretty out of practice. It can be fun, but you have to be in a pretty good condition. Once you get the speed, you become really dangerous. The good thing is that you can experiment moves withouth extra "kata". And take your shirt off when...

U1 drifting was better that U2 because it was a lot heavier. You couldn't see how good the opponents are. You had to always do your best. Carbon drifting is visualy better, but easy as walk in the park.

I'm not telling stock vs modded, also modded vs modded. I found an RX7 with little over 500 hp that runs almost 10 flat.
And, ask yourself why is RX so great platform for LT engines.

The Corvette was faster then the Turbo Mk3 Supra, the Iroc-Z/GTA and 5.0 Mustang smoked the non-Turbo Supra, the 80's RX7 was a horrid piece of junk with more problems than even F-bodies Ahm, Mazda was the only company in the world that had the guts to make and improve Wankel engines.

600 Hp is mighty impressive by any standard. However the engine these cars came with as standard also had a great legacy of giving the M10 engine block to the BMW F1 turbo cars, which ran a modified M10 block, 4 valve head with two camshafts, approx 4.0+ BAR of turbo boost, 1.5L displacement and pro...

im willing to bet all cars that switch over to brand new efi systems back then were gutless as hell. even a late 80's bmw e32 with a v12 only made 300 hp and that wasnt necessarily a old efi system In 78 BMW produced an E21 320 Turbo that produced a 600hp(!!!) out of a 2 L i4 engine.

Why the hell are we arguing about chevy anyhow? Chevy is only good when it comes to V8 configuration, and even then they use a pushrod tech. I mean, come on, '60 are long gone, look, BMW is already starting to produce a next gen engines. As for a smaller engines, 4 or 6 cylinders, I won't even start.

No way, that race must have been set up, or the Lamborghini topped out. ?202 mph? No way that Patrol could done that. That's nothing more embarassing. A Nissan Patrol has a much higher weight and has the aerodynamics of a brick. And Patrol has a turbo large enough to suck up little children. I'm no...
