What are some of your favourite cars or kind of vehicle?
8 years ago
I did a similar journal long ago but here I go again.
Ever since I played the original NFS, my top favourite car has been the almighty Toyota Supra RZ.
I have a deep hatred for weak, boring subcompacts (like the third world crap we get here)*, yet I have a strange interest for the Skoda Felicia** & Citigo.
A full list would be tiresome, but I will approve of most cars with considerable power-to-weight-ratio, a minimum of 60hp per liter (NA) and a clutch pedal. Bonus if it's RWD or 4WD, has no module between the throtle pedal & body, fuel injection, a minimum of 16 valves and was designed before the 2000s. Most spank material for jalops.
(*) Yes! In the Mercosur you can still walk into a dealership and find a brand new cut-down Clio II.
(**) Somebody: EWWW NO JUAN, YOU DON'T LIKE THAT CAR, YOU JUST LIKE THE KITTY KIT CAT CAR FROM THE RALLY VIDEOGAMES. BESIDES WHY CHOOSE THAT CRAP WHEN YOU COULD PICK THE IMPREZA WITH DOUBLE HORSEPOWER AND 4WD THEN HAVE IT EASY?

I'll give 3 of my favorite for each
Supermotos:
1) Aprilia SXV450
2) Suzuki DRZ400SM
3) Kawasaki KLX250SF converted to a true SuMo
Naked bikes:
1) KTM SuperDuke 1290R (really the entire Duke Line, but the 1290R super is the top dog)
2) Ducati HyperMotard, all of them
3) 2002-2007 Honda Hornet 900

...very short run of production, so there weren't a lot of them made. Nice handling, good accepleration, nice looks (except for the 'wagonback' model), fair fuel efficiency... drawbacks were the cramped space inside, loud engine noise and some maintenance issues, from what I hear.
Aunque huela todo el día a vencina y suene como una caja de lata XD
