Unpopular Car Opinions

When your competitors are the Mini, Morris Minor and Hillman Imp, the bar for safety is low.

I' m 0% American and have better English.

 

I'm also 0% American yet I have better English.

 

>Then you make an error with I'm, with an space between the punctuation and "m".

 

My phone's autocorrect, set to Polish, can do this sort of thing if you're not careful.

 

Atleast it's better than Google Translate, definitely can't do (insert whatever language) to English properly.

 

Miles better than
"An vehicle is a mode of transportation"

 

Well, that's miles better than this style:
"This Is The Better Choice."

 

Another error here.

Also, GT is now pretty decent. It is not flawless, but its translations are good enough.

 

Here's an example of it's error.

Regular English (Original):
The Jeep DJ, AKA the Dispatcher Jeep, is a relic from the days when Jeeps weren't all amazing Easter Eggs, but were very much workhorses, like a donkey made out of nothing but very thin sheet metal.

Re-translated to English from Japanese:
Jeep DJ, AKA Dispatcher Jeep was a relic from the time Jeeps was not an amazing Easter egg, but like a donkey made from a very thin sheet metal, it was a very large number of workers.

 

Yes, it struggles with figures of speech.

 

I also translated this:
Tampa, Florida
to
フロリダ州タンパ
to
Florida State of Tampa

 

A family car does not need to handle well, but is meant to be comfortable, so all the current crossovers are actually a good thing.

The cul-de-sac is not a Monte Carlo hairpin, and the thruway is not the Mulsanne straight - you don't need racecar aerodynamic, a centre of mass at the ground or rock-hard suspension. You do, however, need easy entry.

Want fun? Buy a damn sports car.

 

The Ssangyong Rodius is a well designed car.

Well the interior is very well thought out, I think probably best in class.
For example:
The air con vents are on the ceiling, just like an aircraft. This reduces air stratification. The heating vent is on the floor to warm up your feet, good design.
Power outlet in the boot, allows for a plug in fridge in the boot.
The climate control unit is really clever, for example if on auto recirculate, it will drop the fan speed by a notch to compensate for the extra noise.
Chairs swivel round to face backwards

 

Your back problems and easy entry are becoming anectodal. Out of all arguments in favor of crossovers, you chose the most laughable one. Do you really think 3-5 cm more height and head room make such a big deal?
My grandfathers drove normal cars until their deaths and never had any problems.

 

Well, many crossover buyers, especially the older ones, cite the entry ease as a factor.

 

I think the 323 GTR is on-par with the Pulsar GT-R, when it comes to retro hot hatches.

 

If a few cm really are a game changer, then wagons have a major advantage of lower loading height.

 

Miatas are overrated.
I like noisy diesels.
FWD is better than RWD.
Alfa Romeos are reliable.

 

I think the 280ZX is the best Z-Car.

 

I was about to say, "But it was still slower than a Pickup made by Dodge." but this picture changed my mind
