What is the reasoning for the fade to different shade on the lower portion of the car that I see on so many of your cars?
You're the second guy to call it a short bed. It's an 8.5' bed which I'm pretty sure isn't short. Maybe its the proportion to the cab that makes an illusion.
Also has an ancient shift-it-yourself transmission, I really need to get with the times.
Well, as long as it's underpowered and overkill.
Since we have so much space to use I've decided to make it a little longer than your average course. I'm not really sure how to add elevation to an MSpaint drawing, but if I could there are some key areas I would like to have a blind corner and some rolling hills. I think you'll get the main idea anyway. There is a…
One problem, though: where does the energy to run the electromagnets come from? You're switching the current back and forth through them to move the piston, which uses energy. If you're running the electromagnets from the car's alternator, then you're using energy from the gasoline to turn the alternator to run the…
What about the Camaro that crashes at the end of Vanishing Point? Does that count?
Not even one joke about a Leaf on the tree? I am disappointed.
Completely disagree, for me the Gran Turismo series is about getting a very slight taste of what all of the available cars are really like to drive. The game aspect just gets in the way of this and is the only reason I stop playing.
I find it annoying that I can get a $40,000 loan for a new car but not a $10,000 to completely rebuild my old one and tremendously reduce the pollution caused by the replacement. I hope one day our whole society can move toward this fixer movement.
The Cutlass? It is in a perpetual state of restoration, I still drive it to work a couple of times a week to work.
Well the first car I bought was a 1972 Ford Torino, but neither of us could drive (I was 14 and it was a pile of shit) so I don't know if it counts. I cleaned it up and sold it for a nice profit. I then I bought a 1969 Oldsmobile Cutlass when I was 16 and I still have it 10 years later, although quite different then…
I'm all for putting knobs back in cars, but lets at least make climate control standard. Even my 1985 Buick has it and it still works great, leave it at 24 deg and you never have to fiddle with it. One less thing to distract you.
It works! I don't own anything under 20 years old, but the first run through brought me to CTS-V which is the only new car I would consider buying.
For the Chev BRZ I think simple and light is key. 2500 lbs with a N/A I4 but completely set up for a turbo setup or an LS and T56 for the people who want to drop one in themselves. Get the geometry on the suspension right but put in cheap parts. Let the aftermarket handle the performance crowd, but make it easy for…
