Good & Bad about Evo vs Subaru

[RENESIS VIII]

Walao weh, come on, its a technological marvel. Don't be stuck in the past bro.
If turbo diesel, look on the bright side. Wide torque band, less pollution.
If turbo hybrid, lagi better. Hope it will still be the best time attack machine.

I think after you guys have seen so much of my posts on here, I'm actually rather old fashioned and leans more on the traditional side when it comes to cars. Personal preference maybe. Maybe I'm just weird.

No, what I meant is, need to follow trend, have to accept the fact that the world is changing yo.
Move on move on like your ex.

Never heard Mitsubishi experimenting much with diesel engine. But I've heard of Mitsubishi being the world's first company that features a variable valve timing (MIVEC) system on a diesel engine. Suddenly so ambitious want to jump to turbo diesel? But diesel engines usually can't rev high and doesn't sound that good compared to petrol engine. An evo that doesn't sound good?

Many models of Mitsu is already on turbo diesel. They are not rookie in turbo diesel. I'm not just referring to SUVs or pickups but models like Lancer, RVR/ASX running on 4N series turbo diesel plants.

As long as we have the rubbish diesel quality fuel in M'sia, whatever diesel I will never consider. Bring in the damn Euro5 standard diesel already!

Damn cronies!

Speaking of environmentally friendly sports cars - McLaren P1 / Porsche 918 Spyder anyone/

Need some time to adjust.

I thought usually the european makers are more focused on turbo diesel. BTW, thanks for the information.

Those are way out of the budget of normal or average income people... Should mention the new NSX and LaFerrari as well.

I haven't seen the new NSX (on tv or reviews) and ya.. LaFerrari. Forgot about that one!

Still one more year to go until the release date for NSX.

Evo and WRX STI, don't know whether will they go hybrid or not for their next model.

audi R10~R18 TDI in fact doesnt have any noticeable sound from the exhaust note...but it sure does wins races...plenty of it too

u should watch JGTC...lots of em running in the series

Efficiency and power, yes, turbodiesel can be good. But sometimes, we do like a good exhaust note from our cars isn't it? It's like part of the tradition already.

Yummy diesel. Yeah ppl buy V8 for its looks. People buy V10 for Gallardo's performance. Although its a detuned version.

You know - you gotta get out of the old way of thinking and get in with the program man. I'm currently driving a 2.0L with a slick smooth CVT, I used to condemn CVTs. But now that I have one my opinion is completely different. As for exhaust note, nah. You gotta learn to appreciate the engine noise, not so much the exhaust noise. Especially when you can hear the intake roar on high revs..fuh. That one is bloody awesome.

Get out of the old way of thinking? Then? Think like you? Uncle? Who wants smoothness, luxury feel with a magic carpet ride? cabutz.

Engine noise from a 4 banger? You kidding right boss.

Yes, I said it. CVT is for old unker who doesn't enjoy driving.

Hehehe.. give and take lor. You go thrash the latest 2014 City then tell me that CVT is bad. Forget the Inspira / Lancer CVT. Go try the 2014 City and you might change your mind.

My car isn't exactly magic carpet. On straights it still bounces a lot and in corners it sits kinda flat through the corners.

Personally I find the smoothness a little disconcerting but I came from driving a manual to this so the difference is quite apparent. But flip the boat into sports mode and the gears get really aggressive and that I like!

But gotta agree with the engine noise - nothing beats a V engine noise. But since I can't afford one I find intake roar quite amusing too mah.

 

[^pomen_GTR^]

i still hates cvt...pretty much long before it was used on cars....

bcoz i have scooter......


but i liked some part of the cvt due the nature of cvt grips the rev range....tune to get it spot-on....traffic light race is exciting....yes i leaved so many other bike behind....but in term of pure raw full blast acceleration its a rubbish....bcoz no g-force (*and yes im comparing it with proper sequential race gearbox

Probably is because I still haven't have enough experience with those older type of cars that I've always heard so much about over here. Which is why I am still thinking the old way.

Intake noise? I know what you mean. Can hear that on Wira also if I wind down the windows. Intake noise should be even better on those engines with ITB like 4A-GE 20V....

Yong people still have the typical youngster mentality.

So many feedback, but still cant answer my curious.
Really hope some Sifu could help to clear my question.

drive both and answer the question yourself?
we wouldn't know if YOU prefer a redhead or a blonde.

i personally prefer blondes because they believe I'm a pirate.
