KozmoNaut posted:It's a 3-cylinder, right? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xWItsdqKxk You're right, I'd actually prefer that sound over a similarly sized I4. Then again, a BMW I3 would probably be a bit nicer than one out of a Metro.

If your benchmark for if an I3 can sound good is a BMW you're completely off https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BeTVXp3ViZk E: drat, beaten by one post

A little 2.0 or whatever with an exhaust that ends where the cat should be sounds pretty gnarly at full throttle, and no-one can work out it's you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cyd6fxXISmo CA20 with open headers. Once we hooked up the rest of the exhaust it sounded a lot more bland

Ineptus Mechanicus posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xWItsdqKxk I dunno, I like some I4s. Especially when they get bigger than 2 litres and have some decent headers on them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cSsfUvHnDCY Then again, I'm probably biased. I especially like the sound at idle, that sort of canal boat-like thing that I've only ever heard on uncorked V8s before, like the GT by Citroën and Zenvo ST1. Which is hilarious considering it's just a little 4-cylinder. Not very many 2.2L I3s to compare it to, unfortunately. And this stays in the terrible poo poo thread because LOL French 4-cylinder sounding good. KozmoNaut fucked around with this message at 12:04 on Feb 20, 2013 |

I'd like to believe that was one huge Fresnel Lense covering the back window, like the kind people put on motorhomes for rear visibility. Although if that were true, anything behind it would be  in an instant.

drat. I thought it had been in a front end collision until I noticed there was no deformation around the front guards. Really? How could anyone possibly think that looks right?

A lot less than a drilled or slotted rotor would; since it's a drilled rotor, I don't think that he would notice at all. I'm interested in how long it stays there, and if laser etching (I assume that's how it was done) caused the disc to develop any flaws.
