讨论这个问题之出就没有设计谁歧视什么车的问题
Muscle Car社区也不会认为Mustang是Sports Car，这算歧视Mustang还是Sports Car呢？
根本不是这么回事，只不过Mustang确实就不是Sports Car，所以说，你自己理解错了
吧……
Sports Car和Muscle Car明显是区别很明显的概念
如果你统计一下所有的Muscle Car和Sports Car的各种三维参数
你绝对会看到泾渭分明的两群，而不是混杂在一起
这种情况下，非要混淆概念，把Muscle Car叫做Sports Car，你觉这么做有什么积极意

发帖数: 19468 | 8 GT-R有它的特殊性，可以说，它以设计目的来说，是纯粹的Sports Car
但是和911一样，它有它的历史渊源，也就是高性能的Skyline Coupe
所以最终R35就成了一部伪装成GT的Sports Car
它身上有很多矛盾，的确归类会比较困难
说它是GT，它的各方面设计，包括引擎、变速器、悬挂等等，都更像Sports Car
说它是Sports Car，它又有些类似GT的架子
它比大多数纯粹的Sports Car要重，要高，要长
不过总体上来看，还是可以算在Sports Car范畴的
因为它的设计目的是以Sports Car为目标的，一些特殊的地方只是要照顾历史沉淀
它的后座其实也不能坐成人，腿部空间很小，头部空间更可怜，归类是2+2
和Sports Car的要求不算矛盾
而Spec V更是直接改成双座了
置于和Mustang这种Muscle Car比，更是完全不是一路
Muscle Car的核心价值在于hp/$，不能体现在这方面的成本一律都是浪费
所以GT-R的复杂的AWD设计，后置干油底DCT变速箱，由第二根转动轴把动力传回前轴
前轴差速器内置于引擎曲轴箱内

Owning and driving a car involves two things most motorists would rather

是一样的chest clip，我自己觉得这个搭扣很重要，所以打算放弃这个牌子。然后就买
了britax的一款convertible car seat,回来装好后，ld质疑，这个car seat为啥这么
高？小朋友坐在上面，腰与车窗一样高了，他认为这样很不安全，整个上身暴露在车窗
高度，碰撞的时候，肯定容易受伤。相比之下，他更偏向graco的car seat，因为比较
矮一些，那个chest clip的问题，他觉得没关系，反正小朋友也不是每次都打开，还说
欧洲的car seat连chest clip都没有，可见不是大问题。

Let’s face it, we all suspect that service providers are fleecing us,

supposed to know if a brake job should c... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 820 | 49 Sorry to bother those who are not interested.
My car couldnot be started two weeks ago. It is Toyota 2004. We tested the
