A friend was ticketed for rapid acceleration in his stock S2000.

“No one’s launching their Camrys out of stoplights to pull off 6 seconds”

I agree and I think these are going to be killer used car values in 2-3 years.

I’m not claiming that’s the only difference, obviously the Audi is much more of a luxury car. All I’m saying is that if you are the kind of buyer who wants the Sportback body style and the performance of an S5 at a lower price the Kia might be a car worth looking into.

Every state interprets it differently but generally most cities and states have laws about this. It is usually called “exhibition of speed” or “exhibition of acceleration”, or it can be considered reckless driving.

In my 700hp C7Z06 you definately can not legally do 0-60 runs all day long.

You can, but I guarantee you that taking only 1.9 seconds to get to 60 mph is very illegal in every state. Accelerating too quickly is a ticketable offense.

This is bullshit. If you want to stop the alt right you need to stop demonizing white people for no reason. Hate breeds hate.

Im not from US so I would like to know how the deal with the N word works...

Not only that, but what is the realistic lifespan of the battery pack for not only an EV but for a hybrid? Yeah, there are some Ford Escape Hybrid’s breaking the mold, and going for 100's of thousands of miles. And Tesla’s are pretty good, but for a LLV, that’s going to need to last for 30 years and do a boat load of…

Fair but in the example I cite (Ford Escape Hybrids) I think a hybrid could be a good interim step. Even with something mild like Mazda’s E-loop where regeneration replaces the alternator you’d get regen braking, engine stop/start, and extended life on most components. I get that simplicity is a huge factor here, but…

Several facts presented here are not correct. The GT’s V8 makes 25 more horse power (435 to 460), not 20. The Magneride is a separate option from the base performance pack level 1:

Nice — had to flag my subaru jab?! What a joke of a site

Good thing the autonomous van wasn’t black:

Do u even lift bro?

Don’t knock my kink...

It’s good to hear you accept responsibility, but you need a better lawyer. It’s also the maintenance shop’s fault.

I’ve mentioned it here before, but when I was a teen growing up in the hinterlands of MN one of the older local cops regularly carried a tape measure and would check every lifted truck he came across to make sure the bumper was in compliance with the state regs. You’d see him leaving a cafe after breakfast and go out…

I didn’t even know it was possible that a god damn trailer hitch could be that d-baggy

Next, let’s do a crash test into the back of one of those tall bro trucks. Bonus points with a hitch installed.
