Scotty thats a chevy
MOst cars I thought have rev limiters (unless of course they are titled / licensed strictly as offroad/racing).
Anyway, I think some people forget that the power to weight ratio will impact fuel economy on most cars. Take for example an early 2000's Ford Ranger with the 3.0L V6 vs an early 2000's Ford F150 with the V8. Yes the F150 is heavier, but the engine probably has to work less hard (the weight difference is probably only about 2000 lbs) versus the Ranger that has to work harder to keep the same speed. Of course the P/W ratio isn't everything but it's something people forget, and automatically think a V6 will get better gas mileage than a V8. Not necessarily.
If you had the larger engine, and the automatic in that Corvette you'd be looking at more like 8-10 MPG in town and maybe 15-18 on the highway.
However, I disagree with people who still claim modern manuals are still more efficient than modern automatics. With modern automatics, some of the can be as efficient
-if not more efficient-than a human manually shifting. Not as fun as a manual, but certainly economical. The newer Corolla is a perfect example of that (obviously, the newer Corolla also uses a CVT), but even if you looked at other vehicles (modern vehicles). You might lose 1 MPG on both ends with an automatic these days but technology has come a long way, and with 8 and 10 speed transmissions, the benefits of manuals (other than routine maintenance) is getting to be a thing of the past as far as fuel economy is concerned.I learned how to drive my first manual car in my 1991 Honda Beat, which is suitable for me since I am left handed! XD
Car insurance video, maybe?
People have been saying this for ever, theyre just niche , there will always be some demand, so someone will supply. I love my manual scion tc, even as a daily driver.
I have 2 manual cars, an '04 Jeep and a '17 Miata.
Its funny ur inspecting a c4 corvette because all ive been doing this week is watching videos on them cause i wanna buy one so bad
Learning to drive a stick is easy. all you have to do is sing the little Honda song. 1st gear It's alright 2nd gear I'll lean right 3rd gear hang on tight. faster It's alright…
I put straight pipes on mine and it sounded terrible with that jingly old H-pipe. It sounded like it had an exhaust leak. I swapped it for an X-pipe and it completely transformed it. Went from sounding like a WW2 tank to a Corvette lol.
Nah, I love the Column Shifter.
