  1. Nik Brudar I do have a steering wheel, but it's old and I doubt the force feedback still works. Plus, the PC Forza doesn't have wheel support yet. I hope it will soon, although the vibrating controller with conveniently placed handbrake button is nice in the meantime. It's very frustrating, and shows a tough defence. This is also why the Turkish president Erdogan made a massive mistake PR-wise when he reacted so heavily to a comedian. However, too much experience can be a burden. If you have a lot of experience with something, you will be able to execute something repeatedly, accurately and solidly. However, you will also see many hindrances and can anticipate more mistakes. Because of that, you'll be less likely to try something new. Inexperienced people aren't nearly as competent, but provide a fresh and creative view on the matter. This is also why I like Italian, British and French cars better than German cars: they're not as good, but they're more of an occasion and less of a routine job.

  2. Nik Brudar I played Forza once on one of those simulator seat things. All the driver aids besides the racing line indication had been turned off, the force feedback had been turned on. This turned a 458 Italia into an undriveable monster. Alas, the trick is to not make it that difficult. The handbrake is fairly useless in real life besides parking, but I used in in Forza to prove that one can drift in an Abarth Punto. If a game counts as a driving experience, I can only agree with Hammond that one can corner the Pagani Huayra like a half-wit and come out the other side alive. Assetto Corsa? I've heard about that game. It's down on graphics and content, but the driving mechanics are unrivalled. True. I may or may not be able to do that, but I'm not sure. Well, there's nothing wrong with liking German cars, especially since they do make several cars for enthusiasts. However, it's partly my tendency to cheer for the underdog that determines my preference. That, and my ability to see the upside of everything, causing me to adore cars that have many pros in spite of how many cons they have. This gives the perfect Germans a disadvantage.

  3. +gmartirosyan Back in the day, many Italian engines were a tad smaller than 2 litres because of the fiscal climate. I genuinely wonder whether that's still the case (explains the 1.9 JTD)

  6. For the money, I'd have a secondhand V8 Vantage. But I'm weird.

  7. Nik Brudar True. Oh, and I just realised it's not a four-door car. A Quattroporte it is, then. João Pedro Of course, that's why I'm weird.

  8. +Mediarahan +Kevin Koeberling Can't we just agree that both are a monstrosity?

  9. MrCommentator I don't see the point either, besides perhaps clearing the transmission tunnel, but it's the norm and they unfortunately will have to adapt to that.

  10. Now you see, some people have different tastes and like this Vantage better. Plus, the Aston's rarity makes it a better investment.

  11. +carlos ortiz  I think you'll find that the T-34 won the war. That's a Russian tank, if you didn't know. Also, with all the murderers driving Defenders, I think Land Rover is responsible for more deaths than Jeep.
