Talk British to me: All things MINI
R gen? First gen S is R53 and I have an R56. Mine pops loudly in sport mode but nowhere close to an F5x with a JCW exhaust though. Source on the new tuning not making pops? I was referring to your car, yep R gen. It's on north american motoring. All the 2020 dudes complaining about the lack of pops...

Well done DFD.
I’ve factory ordered two cars this far and feel like I’ve done my part.
Did you get your Carista yet?

I've got a Carista in my VW. It's not bad. $39.99 a year or $9.99 for a one week pass. They give you a month for free with it if I remember correctly. Dunno if they work on the coopers :doe: Gotta research Carista. All I want to do is some simple coding to enable some features, like window up/down ...

Verboten frucht: One car you'd buy today if it were available in the USA
Having lived here just over a year now, I’ve realized I don’t want a Canaro SS and actually wish I could buy a cheap hot hatch like a new Fiesta ST or Clio RS.
So.. this.

:wtf: WAP made a car thread? AKA the most boring car thread ever
Rode in a friend’s APR/Unitronic’d Mk7 GTI today and while they’re far from the most existing things out there, they do everything so well.
When in doubt; GTI.
Now I miss my Mk7 R..

Nowhere really but I wanted to run 225/45 summers and keep my stock no seasons for the colder months. There are however hardly any suitable 16” tars sold here, unless you wanna go full :stig: with TW200 Proxes R1R or Direzza ZIII, so figured I’ll try to find a set of 17s instead. Now Mini may end u...

:wtf: WAP made a car thread? AKA the most boring car thread ever
Are these cars as VAGCOM-able as the Mk6? I'd love to have the windows be controlled by the keyfob., and a few other things. Also, can the stupid Soundaktor be killed via VAGCOM? I think I saw some setting in the HU that might address this :doe: so I have to look into that further. Absolutely! I do...

A 99 C5 isn't worth more than $10k those days, regardless of how clean it is. They're fantastic performance bargains. We’ve all thought this but a friend of mine here was just shopping Corvettes and couldn’t find any C5 under $12k and the ones under $14k were trash. He ended up buying an LS3 C6 wit...

General video game chat
I really liked the idea but execution wasn't great, and the open world is completely redundant as it's completely lifeless.
I still feel it deserves a sequel on next gens though.

I wonder why VW didn’t give North America the same dual injection EA888 engine like RoW. I’ve never heard of any issues in Europe so I believe it worked well.
