These new laws are making cars BORING! 

Your comment should have more likes and replys

I’m going to get an old BMW then of new ones are boring

Yes i will, however I’ll also keep my 40 year old car which is absolutely sweet

No! I will buy a nissan r32 or a miata

Cars are now quieter so people will be able to get use to electric cars which is an issue.

Until they increase taxes/insurance for the older cars. They are doing it with diesels..

Yah mate, I'd rather by a 2012 C63s than a 2030 C63s with so many limiters

@@here2serv 😒hope for the best

Yesss

@@here2serv even worse; they can simply forbid older cars to be driven on streets. Euro standards are good example of that...

That could be a future once we copy the nature 100% 😁

yay! offroading is now good for grass! (not really)

I understand many are bummed about these less-fun regulations, but the planet is absolutely struggling, and this really should have been done decades ago. This is the hottest summer ever recorded where I live!

By buiying a car and sponsor an acre of forest being planted...problem solved

@A real bisexual petrol-head Yes, it would be way better. At least I’d get to enjoy all that time.

They were also still purely mechanical, cable throttle, good feeling shifters, good feeling steering. Only electronic thing was fuel injection/ignition and abs. Traction control either was only an option or was possiblento disable entirely.

Haha ikr

Haha this is so true tho

😂😂

Thank God for motorcycles

Haha wow! Don't let Mat hear you say that.

Yes no yes. Bikers don't get noticed on roads so their loud noise serves as detection

Yes please, I hate them here in Switzerland. Last summer there was a shitty heatwave exactly one year ago and I had to sleep with my windows wide open. My brain could filter all the morning cars noise but couldn't filter the moped noise of the same guy going to work at 5:45 AM

But how else would you hear a moped next to your car? Bikes and mopeds/motorcycles are hard to see for drivers in cars.

I agree. They make more noise than a car. Just a nuisance. Put on your headlights and we will see you better. Not all do. We have DLR, you have headlights.

Yeah, just make sports cars more expensive as a fine for drivers and don't find the manufacturers

@@SpottedCreeper That's exactly why the new regulations of soft limiters, etc. for sports cars (or other fun vehicles) are entirely meaningless - quite literally a drop of cold water on a burning mountain. Most people do not commute 100 miles a day to work and back with a 911, Huracan, Viper, Aventador, etc. ... They do it in a Golf, 3-Series, A3, and the likes; therefore, these "reasonable" models only should be affected by these emission regulations.

Žiga Letonja True, but it’s kinda hard for regulators to differentiate between a 911 and a Corolla. What would be the definition of an “enthusiast” car? If that were defined, car companies would try to take advantage and try to badge all their cars as “enthusiast” cars to skirt the laws. And you’d find some triggered car enthusiasts when they find out the government approves a Huracan as an “enthusiast” car but not an Fiesta ST

@@t0taalFrixx Also we can easily modify our cars to get rid of these stupid environmental addition

Yeah if the government is gonna just restrict cars to oblivion,i think bicycles might be a better choice now

Or even a performance one nowadays of they all go at the same speed

And you know it's just step one. Pretty soon they'll be telling your car where you can and can't drive. "Due to an air quality advisory, your selected route has been denied." Or "You've exceeded your maximum allowed daily CO2 emissions. Upon parking, your vehicle will be unable to start until the next day. You can avoid shutdown by purchasing CO2 Credits from the Greta Thunberg EU Climate Action Initiative".

So true. Many have just experienced 4 cylinders and 3 cylinders now and those engines don't make great noises and are nowhere near as refined as a 6, 8 or 12 cylinder so they'll never know what it was like to hear a creamy smooth V6 or I6 or a low burbling strong sounding V8 or V12. 😟

BMW just published a grill that even comes with a car!!!

That had me creasing up

I find it very funny how everyone is butthurt over new BMW grills while Audi and Merc have been doing monster grills for a couple of years now.

Tbh everyone really loves to exaggerate the size of Bmws grills when Audi’s in comparison have much larger grills in size. Bare in mind; Bmw make the grills so big to appeal to the chinese market. If it wasn’t for chinese people for having extremely weird tastes, we wouldn’t have such big grills.

Cockshield that makes no sense. So what you basically said was: it’s okay for one car manufacturer to have massive big grills, but not for the other. Just seems likely hypocrisy and condescending. Let’s be honest; it’s just a way to criticise Bmw because you have nothing else to say against the brand..

It's not the manufactures. It's the unelected bureaucrat activists in Brussels forcing these regulations down the throats of people who never asked for them. Yeah, I despise these M effers. Thank God I live in the USA. Half that crap wouldn't fly over here.

In Germany the Car Lobbis are blocking a speed limit on the Autobahn, blocking much stricter emmision laws and on top of that the car industry is getting a billion euros of money support every crises like for example in the corona time or in an economical break down of just 2%. Dont get me wrong...im glad that they dont put speed limits on the Autobahn but the car lobby in Germany has much more political influence than the gun lobby in the USA. On top of that the european car producers are getting bigger and richer and they are getting bigger on the stock exchange too. So the car industry isnt even beeing destroyed but getting bigger. A worth of mention is that for every stricter law in regard to cars which arent easy to stick to, the car producers are getting extra money for it. So in conclusion they arent even spending their own money to stay sticking to the regulations.

@F a so where do we stop, driverless supercars? That's where we're heading close enough already

@F a safety is good but fact is less human control means better performance and safety and unfortunately less human control also means dull boring experience, so fun and raw wild experience = old, laptimes and safety and restrictions= new. I prefer mechanically natured cars with minimal electronics where all control is in the drivers hands because these are the most fun and thrilling. Just look at the prices of said cars as opposed to modern ones, a 10 year old 997 gt3rs is worth double what the brand new one is because of this and a 250 gto is worth about 50 million. And then look at what journalists and and veterans drive, nearly all older cars and they hate modern ones. The only thing you can respect from modern cars is performance not their challenging of the driver or how they bite back, even their performance has been severely limited by emissions and safety laws not allowing development properly over the past 20 years. Imagine how incredibly fast a modern v12 f1 car would be if no restrictions placed on it. Electric will be faster in future of course be needs much much more development before that happens. Anyway Yh if u want to be safe don't get a sports car get a prius and have a track car I guess if that's what u want I appreciate there's a lot more to life than fun cars.

That started in the 70’s with the fuel crisis. The 80’s helped it along with unleaded. All that did was make desirable cars slower and most burnt just as much fuel. Plus the fact that they were so undesirable that they helped kill the american auto industry.
