I hope someday we'll find a way to pirated a car
In the end, the KIA car company made its cars into subscription models, I really hate this because in the end the car we buy with our own money doesn't feel like it belongs to us. Should we finally buy an old school car ? so as not to be affected by this subscription models or is there a way to crack the software installed in it ?
You're viewing a single thread.
There is not one single new car on the market that I would take possession of if you gave it to me for free. I like having a manual transmission and a radio with buttons.
I'd rephrase that. If you give me a new car for free, of course I'm taking it!
BUT
Buying a new car, right now, as somone who's actively looking and keeping up with the market... There really aren't good cars for a reasonable price. A lot of new cars have been enshitified.
Yeah I don't like automatic either, and have an aversion towards anything that needs a touchscreen to operate.
It's the nature of time that the old ways must give in. Automatics outperform manual at every level, and most people would rather drive an automatic than a manual. Even here in Europe, where manuals have been the "default" forever.
What? Most people buy manuals here in Europe. And automatic are available... Tho, with the rise of electric cars, both manual and automatic get obsolete
If people were only buying manuals, there wouldn't be a push to put automatics everywhere, especially sports cars. More than 50% of cars in Europe are now automatic. Only 3% of new cars are manual. The old meets the new, and the people chose the new thing. That's usually what happens. The age of the manual transmission comes to an end.
Source? And automatic is not 'new'
Ok, I accept your source and facts, but it will decrease in the next 15 years because of the rise of electric cars anyways.
My dad was driving automatic Jags back in the late 1970s, but he did work in the motor trade. I am seeing more and more automatics around but I still think manual is king (at least in the UK) for the time being. If nothing else, you can save some fuel driving an auto!
I don't even have a licence. I'd take it. Those gave pretty okay resale value. ^_-
As much as I’d like to drive 90s shitboxes for the rest of my life, the cynic in me thinks we’ll see something like cash for clunkers on a global scale. It’s only a matter of time before the supply runs dry and parts become nearly impossible to find at a reasonable price
