Model S. Just look at it, do I need to say any more?

maybe you can add customizable suspension with different settings for track and road on the RS or will it cost too much???

Eh... Well it is already ride height and stiffness adjusdable so if you want to retain your factory adjustability I would imagine replacing the suspension would cost you a pretty penny... Like $5000 USD or so...

 

I honestly wouldnt bother. If you dont like the ride quality of the RS, I would just look into alternative cars.

 

Besides, I heard the ride isn't too terrible so long as you leave race and sport mode alone and just drive in comfort mode everywhere, even when tackling a windy mountain road and trying to have some fun

I suppose if we're really throwing caution to the wind, I'll take an MD530F too.

yes. as low as possible with the option to let the system pump it higher to a driving height or park house height.

im not talking about those tacky lambo doors to be clear. i mean the classic koenigsegg door. they dont go up. they just rotate 90 degrees and slide open to the front. and sadly its so complex a system that theres next to no conversion kits or anything like that so probably not doable. but as long as were talking dream car...

well i thought the whole 4 motors one per wheel would give you best results. also i thought since you wouldnt have a classical engine in there you yould fill up that long nose of the z4 with batteries.

Yeah i like your idea brilliant. I know about those doors from Koenigsegg. They have only one hydraulic thingy unlike other dumb doors which have two or more. I didn't know they were called that though. The customizable ride height will be useful. I think you should add headlamps from the current gen Volvo( the thor hammer led ones) or maybe add those of the Zenvo ST1. Just check them out they are pretty cool. What about colour?? Standard blue??? I think the paint job from the need for speed mustang will look good.

At the end of the day it's still just a dream, I don't even have a drivers license and wont have one for a while so I can finance myself an apartament.

perfect colour i just live that car though I think it is one i could realistically afford compared to other dream cars I have

67 mustang fastback, sls black series, aston martin db9 facelift

and daily of some sort for relatively cheap

the mustang and db9 are on my list. I like the SLS black is one of the only mercs I like.

No, once I can own a car I am currently in grade 10 and 15 years old, I will drive it sport mode evrywhere

Don't get me wrong. I love Tesla. They're insane af, but for that price I'd rather have a better built car. AMG E63 S for example or smth. Tesla's aren't the most reliable cars and the interior is lacking a lot. It doesn't feel like a $100,000 car to me. But that's my opinion.

Still love the cars tho.

 

My dream car(s)? Depends on the price really.

I'd love to own a Huracan (performante) or a GT3RS.

As for the more cheaper cars I'd probably buy an F90 M5 or an AMG GT R or AMG E63 S.

 

to keep things realistic and affordable (I'm a 19ye old student) I really want a Vw UP GTi LOL or a new gen Polo. Idk.

(ye ik I could just buy the Up TSI and ECU tune it to make it faster than the GTi, but still LOL)

Lol mega stiff all the time, why not right? Im just sayin that cuz all the reviews say that comfort mode is already sport mode in any other car because the suspension is so stiff.

 

They basically say that sport and race mode are for the track only and on regular roads its simply a nightmare

 

EDIT: Basically in the Focus RS:

Comfort Mode = Sport Mode

Sport Mode = Race Mode

Race Mode = Break my Spine Mode

Drift Mode = Tokyo Drift Mode

Thing with Tesla is that they're a new company. Of course reliability is reliability no matter how old they are, but they're learning and improving quickly. They've ironed out most of the major kinks in the Model S, though to my knowledge the Model X is still iffy.

As for interiors, I'm still waiting to test drive one before I judge, but I can't imagine they'll just leave it alone for long. They hired the guy in charge of interiors at Volvo at the end of 2016, I imagine we'll start seeing improvements with the next few rollouts (high-production Model 3s, the Roadster 2, and I hope the Model S P200D).

 

Even with their problems, though, they are still the best electric cars on the market.

I like the interior but there could have been at least one small instrument oanel behind the steering wheel. tech is brilliant but it misses out on luxury at its price and 5k for autopilot is dumb when i could buy a decent motorbike or gaming setup for that

yeah turquoise is good too but the silver from that car would look brilliant unless you get the perfect shade of blue for it,

can't you like mechanically change it so that comfort mode becomes comfortable truly. I am sure they are measured relative to one another(suspension stiffness)??

Aw, you didn't get the reference, That is Airwolf, Helicopter from a TV show that ran from 1984 to 1987

 

Airwolf opening credits:

however, that helicopter in the show was based off a Bell 222:

You could, I just dont think it wouldnbe worth the cost

I'd love a Kawasaki H2 2018.

Cummins diesel all the way.

Either add more green or swap the green with blue and count me in.

Really? I mean, pretty much ALL cars are roughly car shaped...

What would you prefer they do to it?

Make it look like something other than a Civic with different, but generic headlights from the back, and a Focus from the front.

[Levent]

I honestly cant think of any other car that I am more tempted to buy than laguna seca blue E46 M3, BUT there is one other car that I lust over more than anything else and it is the M6 GT3/GTLM

just look at it, I wish I had 200K euros to spare.

I can sort of see where you're coming from with the Civic, but the Focus is a bit of a stretch.

 

Does looking vaguely like an economy car from certain angles really make the design generic? I agree it's rather plain, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. I've never found myself looking at a car going "Is that a Tesla, or... No, it can't be -But is it?" or anything like that, even before I was into cars.
