That's funny, you'd think that with the kind of roads you guys have up there, punctures and road debris wouldn't be among your biggest worries. I mean, here in Brazil, you just don't drive straight, you're always swerving away from holes, carcasses, debris, trees and all that shit.

I'd be happy if devs figured out how to make games less shitty altogether...

It's not just me though. I was discussing this with my old man, and most of the cars he owned were sold without ever having suffered a puncture. Only two of our cars have ever suffered punctures, according to him, a Chevrolet Omega way back in the 90's, and this more recente case I just mentioned above.

Should we really care about airless tires though? I mean, I honestly can't remember being involved in more than two puncture incidents in my entire life, and even that is a stretch, as the first one involved a friend of my dad driving over a curb while drunk and somehow slashing his left rear tire open. The other…

This right here, all of it, from the recovery of Torch's bettle to this incredible display of gratitude, are what make this community the best on the internet. And don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

Ultimately, you wkn't be able to bu any of this at all unless you happen to live in a handful of very specific areas where the environment for this technology to operate actually exists. Take Brazil for example. You'd have to be crazy to even take connectivity, Apps and Auto-OSs into consideration when purchasing a…

So, basically, the same as buying a regular used car in Brazil, only cheaper. Trust me, I've spent more on our equivalent to DMV taxes and fees than on some of the cars themselves, and the whole process is so convoluted, you might as well give up if your car happens to not be a perfect numbers matching example.…

Nasty... fuck Brazil for several particular reasons though.

Nope, the engine is the exact same 2.0 l Twin Cam used in the Delta, sans the Turbo. Even the pistons carry the Lancia badge. The transmission is also the same, and even though the Tipo is FWD, the AWD from the Delta is bolt on compatible, and was used in the AWD Tempra Wagons. The platform isn't exactly the same, but…

Way down in Rio Grande do Sul, close to the argentine border. A dirt road car isn't a bad idea, considering our last governor basically destroyed our roads...

New cars have their perks as well, hahaha... You don't have to worry about them breaking down, maintenance is included in the dealership plan for at least 3 years these days, and if my parents' cars, both 2013s, are any indication, they may not be light, but they're solid as rocks.

Heyoo!

I wish... But the Nova was never sold in Brazil, and importing one over here is a long and complex task. Not to mention our economy is currently on life support, so it's not really a good idea to invest in one. I actually own two Fiat Tipo Sedicivalvoles, which was a small hatchback from the mid 90's that shares a lot…

The team should change names to Meet your Mother. Or Make your Mother. Or Mother your Mother.

Yup they're both Italian made, I guess that's why they've lasted this long. My dad owned the first one from new and passed it on to me in 2006, the second one I got last december for 3000 reais. I'm still not sure what I'll do with it though. Since it's a 21 years old car, it doesn't collect taxes or fees anymore, and…

Maybe if you count the game as a whole, and if you're into the additional stuff you do besides from driving in GTA, but for the driving aspect alone, Driver is a much better action driving game.

It's still not a car game. You use cars to go from A to B, there are relatively few missions where they are involved as much as running and gunning. GTA is more like a Commuter game.

Believe it or not, back when it was sale here in Brazil, the base model cost well over 110 Thousand reais. That's almost as much as what VW is charging for the GTi now, for much less car. I've no idea why Hyundai thought it would sell well...

How much power is the engine rated at in the US? The brazilian version has a meagre 116 hp to go about, so I was curious whether other US and Euro Markets had more powerful versions, as they tend to.
