yeah it is getting pretty confusing

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selespeed


and the M3's use Selespeed?
or are they a car without a clutch pedal, that automaticly engages the clutch when you use the pedal shifters?

just got back from the bar, hope i didn't make the wording too confusing, sorry if i did :P
on a side note, i can't wait to read all these reply's tomorrow morning!

it's still currently slower.

a little more hp doesn't change the fact its a fatty fat fat fat of a car.


I figured the 45hp increase would be pretty substantial. Didn't look at anything other than the numbers.

Past, present and future kid


And this is the reason why its horrifically slower

My reason for dislike of mustangs is that the kids that drive them around here seem to be "so much cooler" cause they drive a $2k fox body. I dont really like ford and the mustangs look nice yes, but i just have never really wanted to drive one. I am not a hater, just dont really care about them?

don't take it personnel, how many people hate on civics?  its just a mainstream car and anything mainstream gathers tons of haters, be it a civic, mustang, camaro, or lil wayne.
press the zero fucks have been given button and on your way you will be!


bc its a civic.. it wasn't made to be a badass car, a civic was made for the poor man to go from point a to point b and nothing more


ima ford man through and through but a mustang isn't a muscle car its a sports car

Cars in general are like women. You can defend your choice all you want, but it will never be quite as good to someone else as their choice is to them.
And regardless of how disgraceful we all know it is... as long as you're enjoying yourself, I'm all for it.
People have different needs and wants. I don't hate on anything until it gets shoved in my face while the owner is like, "see this.. its better than yours!"
Its your car. You bought it. That does not mean I would/should want anything close to what you have.
A mature person should be able to hear that their car isn't what I would choose for myself, and not have a cry-baby fit.

This isn't directed at any one person.

since you still don't know the difference between a manual transmission and an automatic transmission... i'll just post what it is for you.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_transmission
It uses a driver-operated clutch engaged and disengaged by a foot pedal (automobile) or hand lever (motorcycle), for regulating torque transfer from the engine to the transmission;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_transmission
An automatic is one type of motor vehicle transmission that can automatically change gear ratios as the vehicle moves, freeing the driver from having to shift gears manually.


So tell me the story one more time about how the M3 is a manual? Is it because it uses a driver operated clutch, engaged and disengaged by a foot pedal... or does it shift the gears automaticly, freeing the driver from having to engage the clutch manually?

I can't believe i have to explain to a grown man what the difference is between an automatic car and a manual.
Don't you drive a truck for a living, how can you not identify the most basic aspects of a motor vehicle.
