Amy's Garage

The only car I know well is Hyundai Matrix and last I checked, it's pretty low in the amazing car list.

And I don't have a real dream car either. As long as the damn thing works well for my purposes, comfortably, and the maintenance isn't too much of a hassle, it's a great car for me.

But it's still enough to prove you wrong. It's all I need.



Singapore.

Well, I cannot not admit that I am not not from that country situated at the heart of Southeast Asia, at the southern tip of Malaya.

Tibet? MONGOLIA? MADAGASCAR?

No, no Devs is right. I come from Singapura.

0.0....Poor you... Cars are way expensive over there, plus theres modification laws.. Why dont you jump the border and swim to japan?

That is possible if Singapura were part of China! But, I can swim over to Indonesia to meet up with high_time, devs, Sanada-Kun and company.

That said, I am also surprised to learn that you know a little about traffic management in this little island of mine! Not all modifications are disallowed, don't worry.

Pic of what they expect the R36 to look like. Sad that they dropped the PTW ratio look.

I believe you can drive.

I have problems starting a manual car. Here is the list of steps:

1. I put on my seatbelt.
2. I check my mirrors.
3. I start the engine.
4. I release the handbrake.
5. My left foot is on the clutch pedal.
6. My right foot is on the accelerator.
7. I lift my left foot, releasing the clutch pedal.
8. I have to start the bloody engine all over again.
9. I approach IncrontomentalVortex for tips.

I have problems switching gears quickly. Can you help me Aunt Agony Amy?

Put right foot in as you lift your left, kinda like the hokey pokey.

Also, yay car thread.


dat car

It is a headache! Lift the left too fast it breaks down. Left the right too fast it breaks down.

Lift the left too slow it won't move. Left the right too slow it won't move.

I will keep your advice in mind though. Thank goodness for automatic cars... I think you would rather read the nonsense I write than to operate these monsters...

I need to learn how to drive though. Being a cabbie is a good 'unemployment occupation'.

ED: That said, Aunt Amy, what does the clutch pedal do?

Or, you know, you can buy bikes.

Or like me take public transport.

Because I'm a generic pleb and all.

OT:

There's something about shifting gears with a stick that the matics will never give me.

Plus my bike is faster then 90% of your stock shit.

This place needs moar motorcross

This one is pretty cute yo. I wanted this and a Fiat 500 just because they're cute and classic respectively.

You can drive manual cars, can't you, Devs?

I can, but prefer not to. Speed limit are enforced heavily here, no point in speeding. In Indonesia, traffic jams are bloody everywhere, so it's either automatic, tip-tronic, or flappy pedal. I tried flappy pedal only once though, it was alright.

^ I see. I never knew that there are so many variations of automatic cars! Flappy pedal, tip-tronic are considered semi-automatic aren't they? I believe no one in this forum except me would ever say this but I really want IncronotmentalVortex to post here now.

I just woke up. ;_;
Just rev it a bit before slowly lifting off the clutch.
