First off the Bmw's r wayyyy too popular and has nothing "special" to it. My car is mostly stock exepct for some cosmetic things like rims ect... I havent touched the engine yet... and seriously take a look at the merc's and bmw's from 1990's they arnt that sophisticated or refined and needed constant servicing to keep em running. Even if i did not own this car i would have still posted it here simply because its a unique car from its era!

I'd Agree with you if you called this BMW "cool" but every thing else looks so mundane and boring!

Sorry I can't agree I go out street racing and there are Hondas everywhere, and where I live BMW's are few and far between, yes there are a few about but actually good quality ones, with nice features are rare (like mine)

if you wanna talk about a amazing car from the 90's then a Lotus Carlton takes the biscuit, but the Legend, I think not... I think they look ok, but they don't bring anything amazing to the stage...

But the Legend won Japanese car of the twice in the early 1990's :rolleyes: . Legends are far more rare than a Bmw in the uk, i m sure most people will agree with me on that :huh: ! So far this is the only honda that actually stands out from other hondas or japanese cars from the 1990's so you can draw your conclusions from that i guess. ;)

they are rare because no one bought them lol

and i see at least 20 BMW's a day

Thats because Legends were not "available" in the uk until recently, mine is a grey import from japan, i have seen quite a few in california (about 5000 in the usa). Legends are quite popular in japan coz its manufactured there. I am assuming not many in the uk know of this cars existence so its pretty rare, which makes it even more special to own one, knowing its a different car to others! :pinch:

You do know that the new Honda Legend is also known as the Acura RL in the US, right?

BTW, that Civic Type-R is hot. Riceburner or not, the only place you would see a BMW after that would be your rearview mirror. Not to mention the price difference. You can have your rediculous luxury, I'll drive something logical and just as fast.

The funny part is I have NEVER been beaten by a honda. I went up against a turbo honda (on the track) and KILLED it by almost two car links and that was when I only had the exhaust changed out.

Did you forget the S2000 is a Honda? Or have you never raced one?

I haven't raced one but it still wouldn't stand a chance stock. My car stock is a even match up for the S2000 stock.

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By ikjadoon · Posted

      It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.

      Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.

      I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.

      It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By Danielx64 · Posted

      Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?
