Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

Just curious about everyone's opinions...

Which car brand currently makes the most good looking cars?

 

Have my answer but I was wondering what everyone else thinks...

Definitely Mazda, In the last couple years, Mazda have really pushed out great redesigns of their most popular models. And i cant wait for the third gen Mazdaspeed 3.

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

The Outback is plain and ugly and the XV looks like a civic hotwheel.

well, i like the Outback's grille and the LED taillights. But subaru did piss me off by using a brand new engine for  the STI this year. Instead of the EJ25 we know and love to make tons of power, the FA engine seems a bit skeptical.

Not a fan of supercars personally. Yeah they're fast, but they're something that's never interested me. I'd rather drive a boosted S13 any day of the week

the P1 al the way

i like it bc it's got a v8 with an electric motor, plus it beat the veyron as the fastest accelerating car ever, at 2.3 secs 0-60

I kinda agree. I treat a Supra or a Skyline as the poor man's supercar

I'd absolutely love a Supra or Skyline. Those are cars that have always interested me. Same with the WRX STi, GTI, stuff like that. Kinda average as far as price goes. But such fun cars.
