Panic! At The Tesco posted:while we're on the subject of real cars some of you may enjoy this youtube channel I recently discovered. it's the kind of races you would see in the early gran turismo games or something, but for real. commentary is in japanese but has english subs Those are clips of old Best Motoring videos OP, the best car videos around. They still make videos but it's Hot Version now since it's mostly tuner cars from different Japanese tuning shops.

In class terms are Alpine the best team? Alonso and Ocon are both from working class families (miners and mechanics respectively). May actually be the least problematic driver pairing. e: also I drive a lexus and I actually enjoy the weird heavy steering that most people complain about.

a pipe smoking dog posted:e: also I drive a lexus and I actually enjoy the weird heavy steering that most people complain about. Is Lexus steering supposed to be heavy? Toyota is always absurdly light. I drove a BMW m340i recently and in sport mode that's what I'd call unnecessarily heavy steering. It seemed fine in comfort steering and suspension with sport engine and gearbox though.

It seemed fine in comfort steering and suspension with sport engine and gearbox though. I don't think so tbh but like whenever I mention I drive a lexus someone is like "oh yeah the steering on those is really heavy and weird". I just find it's nice and not overly twitchy. I had to drive a vauxhall a few months ago and on top of it having the weirdest gear ratios I have ever experienced the steering was way too light and bouncy.

It's hilarious to me anybody saying modern BMWs have heavy steering because I think their magnetic racks are comically light.

Full Collapse posted:We don’t get the 1 series anymore in the US and a 3 series felt really big when I last sat in one. I’d be coming from a wrecked 86, so that’s the size of car I’m used to. Arh, right. America hates small practical cars. In that case, yeah 2-series is probably the best... although the trunk does feel limited.
