  • My Stage 2 A45S AMG sounds WILD now thanks to a full turbo-back Cobra Sport Exhaust! Having now bedded in the new exhaust after my recent visit up to Cobra Sport HQ, there's no better time to showcase it in all it's glory in this video!

      What are you talking about? You most definitely can.
      Catless downpipe, no particulate filters, titanium catback, different turbo manifold and a different turbo, valve springs/retainers to raise the redline, cams, intake manifold, and so on.
      There are tons of things you can do and you don’t even have to do much.
      Maybe it’s different for you, but everyone can do this in America (except communist states like California) and get away with it.

      The 911 GT cars come with the feature to disengage the clutch when you press both paddles at the same time, so you can clutch dump. Can be tuned in other cars, but nobody does it.
      Technically you can just downshift and floor it at the same time, Audi’s and VW’s can do it on the dual clutch cars if you know how to. It engages antilag and takes off

      The new M2 is an incredible all rounder, like all new cars it will lack feel and character versus older models but that’s just how cars are these days. Personally I’d rather a cayman GT4 at the price point but obviously the M2 is more practical if that’s a consideration.

RWD is only good abroad in Europe countries etc.. or if u want slightly more fun without getting anywhere. U always have drift mode arguably better than a RWD car overall.

      @@suhail1200 Agreed, just depends what you want from the car, if grip off the line is what you need then awd is the choice every time. But personally I think the awd + auto cars feel numb and boring to drive. Cars with drift mode definitely do make them a good option for someone that wants both. If you want a challenge and have to actually think about how you drive the car then it’s RWD you want.
