Every car guy loves them and I don’t understand what the big deal is (never driven one). I should lead off by saying that I actually learned to drive with a manual, so that likely affects my feelings about driving manual. I think one of the big things about manual vs auto is the main purpose of your car. If it's only to get to point a to point b, than an auto is better. To me, I like the greater involvement behind using a manual. I enjoying rowing through the different gears and the process behind it. Before my current car, I had a BMW M4 with paddle shifters, but found the paddles boring to use. As a result, I never used them and didn't feel like the drive was engaging. My M4 was fast, but dull to drive. A manual also makes me feel more connected to the car and I get a better sense of what it's doing. I can feel the different gears engage when I'm shifting and controlling the gas. Then, nailing that perfect rev matched downshift and hearing the loud crackle from my car's exhaust is amazing. There's also a thrill when you're driving at speed and need to shift a gear. Steering with one hand, even briefly, is something else when you're going fast. All in all, I'd say give it a shot. You might like it. You might not. Manuals are dying off for a reason afterall. J-ride, DoctaMario and Vhozite 3 Quote Link to comment
Darc_Requiem Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 (edited) 2015 Hyundai Equus I wanted V8 and rear wheel drive. It's my first foreign car because domestics just lacked options. They are all about trucks and SUVs now. I didn't want a 300, Mustang, or Camaro. The Chevy SS prices skyrocketed, like the G8 and GTO before when people realized what kind of powertrain they had. Seriously if you bought a GTO, G8 GT/GTX, or SS on sale right near the end of their production they were selling for like 2/3rds MSRP. A few years later they all sold above MSRP used. My brother has a 2005 GTO. He bought it for 22k in 2007. It only had 11k miles at the time. He went to the dealer to look into an extended warranty and they offered him 28k for it. I had a G8 GT that I bought for 25K in 2011. I totalled it in 2013 😭 and my insurance company gave me 27K for it. I went to look for another one and the same model I had was going for that much with more miles than the car I wrecked. Side Note: Totaled my ass. Two weeks after I totaled it, I got a call from the mechanic that bought it at an auction. He fixed it and was wondering if I still had the second set of keys. They only made G8's for about a year and half. They were built in Australia. Insurance company just didn't want to fix it. 😔 Edited August 8, 2021 by Darc_Requiem OPTIMUS124 and Vhozite 2 Quote Link to comment

Reticently Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 CVTs are definitely more efficient. I think they're fine, except when they're paired with an underpowered engine (but an underpowered engine is going to suck regardless, so that's whatever). IcyBlackDeep 1 Quote Link to comment

Don't floor it while making a left or right turn when exiting a parking lot in the rain. It has three modes Normal (for Fuel Economy 🤨) Sport (Default for me, I have V8. I want to use it), and there is a Snow mode for winter weather. I've only had to use it a few times but it with traction control gives you a solid feel. My previous car, 2010 Taurus SHO, was a beast in bad weather. I do miss the AWD from my old SHO sometimes. The Equus is a luxury car though. It's more of a cruiser, it's basically the car rich dudes in South Korea buy to get chauffeured around. There is arm rest in the back seat that allows you control everything. Although I don't see the point of the DVD player. Format aside, you can't use it when the car is in motion.

I advise looking into see if the your car falls under the non recall they are doing for it that may let them repaint it for you. Also the touch screens from that period are janky and the bottom half dies on you which can make it hard to program the Bluetooth. Quote Link to comment

OPTIMUS124 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 The G8 is a respectable machine. GM tried to enter the "sports sedan" market a couple times without any success.

Darc_Requiem Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 (edited) Holden, who GM owns, never stopped making power sedan and coupes at the time. The 2005 GTO my brother owns is a Holden Monaro. The G8/Chevy SS is a Holden Commodore. Unfortunately and ironically, due to the increase in the value of the Aussie Dollar, neither vehicle is a thing any more. Australia is too small a market to sustain local manufacturing and made their bread & butter on exporting. When their currency increased in value, exporting was no longer profitable. The GTO and G8/SS's cost more than they were sold for. IIRC the Aussie dollar went being 60 cents in US dollars to 80+ cents in US Dollars. TLDR: The GTO, G8, and SS were really Australian cars made by Holden. Holden has no local manufacturing in Australia anymore due to an increase in their currencies value. 😔 @VhoziteWhat are you looking for in particular? Mustang/Camaro are cheaper to modify. BRZ is a bit on the slow side but has excellent handling. WRX is a beast in any weather on basically any terrain. 370Z has one of the best naturally aspirated V6's ever made.

Vhozite Posted October 5, 2021 Author Share Posted October 5, 2021 My neighbor has a GTO and it’s clearly his baby. Pontiac was my favorite brand as a kid it’s a shame they got canned. @Darc_Requiemreally I’m just look for something exciting to drive, good looking, and automatic. The thing is that “exciting to drive” for me is a few different things so I’m not super picky. I like different things about different cars. BRZ is lightweight coupe, V8 muscle cars have the sound/speed, etc. In an ideal world I’d like a nice small AWD coupe but those are extremely rare outside of entry level luxury cars that come with a bunch of features I don’t care about.

For a time I was actually considering getting one of those cars because reasons. However, having a Charger just negated the reason. I saw no need to have two sports sedans. Speaking of the Holden cars, the modern Caprice is probably the closest that one can get for a "decent" cost. However, they've likely been beat up due to engine operating hours and the wear and tear on the transmission. 24 minutes ago, Vhozite said: My neighbor has a GTO and it’s clearly his baby.

WRX is a beast in any weather on basically any terrain. 370Z has one of the best naturally aspirated V6's ever made. I agree with everything said here. On the domestic side, the aftermarket for the Mustang/Camaro platform is pretty solid. I love the Mopar family, but parts aren't cheap in the aftermarket space. I will say that the HEMI platform at this point is virtually bulletproof. If you decide to go that route, note that the Charger, Challenger, 300, and Magnum are mechanically the same car. When I upgraded the suspension, I used the rear cradle from a 2009 car in my car (2006) in case I ever decide to go full jackass with power. The 09 cradle is the same used in the 2015 Hellcat. If you want to go drifting, the BRZ is a fun toy. WRX is a solid all-around car. I used to get challenged by those quite a lot. AWD gets them off the line fast and as mentioned, handle great. They just remind me of street legal go carts. Oh and the 370Z deserves the chef's kiss. I'm not an "import guy" but respect that machine. The only import car that I'd consider is a GTR. That's a mean car. Got a chance to drive one for a track experience. It earns the name Godzilla for a reason. 29 minutes ago, Darc_Requiem said: Nevermind, I looked them up.

It's not "bad" but if you are going to drive a 2 ton land yacht, you are better off with a v8 HEMI. Think about it, that platform has practically remained unchanged since 2003. The only real changes have been VVT (08) and a supercharger with adjustments to internal materials and displacement. From 2011 - 2020. Its insane to see how fast cars have gotten. Also, there are rumors that Dodge is going to make the Hellcat versions of the Charger and Challengers have an AWD switch. This is likely due to the Trackhawk and Durango being discontinued. Powerful car, but rubber doesn't meet the road at launch. This would fix that. It'll be interesting to see what kind of numbers that car would put down with that change.
