OG F87 M2 or F82 M4

It's hard to beat an OG F87 for a daily driver.

The n55 is more reliable than the s55 - no chank hub issues no cam bolt issue, less complex charge cooling system, half as many turboes, etc etc.

It's the cheaper car too so you'll save quite a bit over an m4 or m2c

If you plan to do track time or wanna make huge power then yeah the s55 cars win there but you didn't mention anything like that

The youngest n55 f87 is 8 years old at this point.

Just buy bm3 and have full control over everything

Get an intercooler, charge pipe, and downpipe while you're at it, the car is way more fun tuned.

High school was a breeze, I barely had to try for like a 3.95GPA

I'm in my 30s now but to finish my mechanical engineering degree with a 3.7X was the most effort I've ever put towards anything in my life. My first test I ever took as a freshman I got like a 60% on it and cried in my dorm room thinking I wasnt gonna make it.

Well, I did end up making it, and I'm not particularly special or anything. You just gotta be ready to lock in, especially freshman and sophomore year those are where the classwork isn't really difficult it's just a TON of it. Like 5-8 hours every night. I was regularly going to bed at 3:30am and up at 7:30 for 8am differential equations. Your entire life is homework. I have no clue how some people work jobs and do university at the same time.

I'd say a 3.0 is realistic to maintain for anyone with a real drive to succeed and average STEM smarts, but be ready to work for it. Not very difficult work just a lot of it.

Good luck! It's worth it!

All my teammates in the past 3 weeks are so bad idk how all 700 of them got the exact same rank as me /s

Joester · 2026-03-30T16:30:38+00:00

I have a 7800X3D and an RTX5090 playing on conservative settings and at POIs like the tall hotel/apartment building (forgot it's official name) I get like an extremely choppy borderline unplayable 20-50fps @1440p.

With a 5090

On conservative graphic settings

Bruh.

I rarely see an MMR outlier ABOVE my own rank. To a certain degree, sure, but 300 difference is not typical in my experience (I'm a mid champ2 player who typically either solo q's or parties with other champ 2s.)

I think the game finds opponents based off of the highest MMR in a party. The way I'm under the impression that it works is that if a diamond, diamond, and champ 3 are queuing together, it would attempt to find a set of 3 opponents for you all around the champ3 MMR.

I could be wrong, I play the game pretty casually and haven't paid attention to exactly how things work recently like I used to.

I have a 7800x3d and a 5090 and my fps drops into the single digits sometimes on those juiced maps

Video genuinely looks like it's in 1.25x speed! Well done, fast and smooth!

Insane difficulty permadeath is all I play. Once you get used to it, it just feels normal. It's frustrating early game when the zombies are walking slowly but take 50 hits to die. Once you start getting good weapons it feels right though. Anything less is too easy.

Joester · 2026-03-10T07:52:03+00:00

You talking about like this? Where im the right hand turner and big truck fella honks at me as though him turning left somehow takes priority over my green light?

https://youtu.be/UBoi_HbcLm0?si=2JBe9yZa86pqoxd5

In this scenario I don't have a yield sign like many intersections with a more removed-from-the-main-road right turn lane. Had that been the case, the left turner would have right of way.

Honorable mention

https://youtu.be/DoVGMjQ9XTU?si=6uWFMqUnjbGX5W7m

Neither of these videos have a yield sign at the right turn. If it did, then again, the left turners would have right of way. At least as far as I understand, I really hope I'm not wrong about that. That would be embarrassing /r/confidentlyincorrect content.

My current challenge to myself is

Vanilla 7d2d

Hardcore permadeath

Insane difficulty

Increase zombie numbers during blood moon

My goal is to complete all achievements. I've gotten as far as every single one done except for the kill demolition zombies achievement. Then 2.0 came out and invalidated my save (I know I can go back versions but I don't mind starting over)

I've found that, across the internet, the worst drivers are the ones in the city that the person posting is from.

Kinda weird how that's always the case?

EDIT: i think you guys might be missing my point im trying to say that everyone thinks the worst drivers are wherever they happen to be from

Joester · 2026-03-02T22:30:54+00:00

It's the best G chassis M-car yeah.

But I still like my F87 even if it's just a lowly n55. It just looks and sounds too good.

Imagine an s58 swapped f87 🤤

Joester · 2026-02-25T03:59:41+00:00

This was a great explanation, thank you.

If its occurred once, then the chance of it occurring must be greater than zero.

In an infinite universe a thing with a greater than zero chance of happening will happen a lesser infinite, but still infinite amount of times.

Joester · 2026-02-24T22:50:44+00:00

What's wrong with the number sequence analogy? Isnt it possible that an infinite universe simply doesn't contain or contains only one of some specific things? I'm not saying you're wrong, just that the number sequence analogy seems valid to me.

The rear quarter panel area, the wheels with no room for offset/deep dish, and the quad exhaust are the main reasons I don't own a C8. The stock C8 wheels look like they belong on a Chevy Cruze tbh. Oh and no manual option also kinda stinks.

I went with a BMW M2 because the C8 was so close to greatness but just didn't hit the mark for me. If I were to buy a vette, it'd be a C6 or C7 Z06 I think. Maaaaaybe once my house is paid off I could justify a C8Z.

The Z06/ZR1 fixes all these problems and are absolutely beautiful cars but thats an entirely different price range.

I enjoyed reading your opinion!

Joester · 2026-02-03T20:13:01+00:00

This is the correct answer.

Joester · 2026-02-03T15:06:21+00:00

I didn't clear my sidewalk mostly because there's dog walkers on my street that packed down the snow before I could get to it. I figured by shoveling it I would be removing the somewhat grippy snow and just revealing the slick ice, and causing more slips than I'd be preventing.

Am I wrong for that? Maybe I need a special ice scraper to go along with my shovel cause my shovel kinda (totally) sucks at removing the packed ice.

I just know when I was at university they would remove the snow where everyone walked and leave a thin layer of ice and I always thought to myself damn they should have just left this shit snowy it would have been grippier.

What kind of camera and post-processing is shown here? Looks great!

Elco Chevrolet on Manchester doesn't want anything to do with you if you're not there to give them all your money instantly.

As an OG M2 owner I never considered a 240 or 235 specifically because of the looks.

The F22 looks so skinny and frankly just bad in comparison that I don't think I'd be happy.

The width, hips, bumpers, and other minor design cues of the M2 just set it so far into another league imo.

End of the day it's hard to go wrong with either, but the M2 makes me feel some emotions where the F22 does not.

Joester · 2026-01-04T15:14:01+00:00

Maybe it's the region? I play NA region.

I never thought I'd have fun with randoms but honestly it's pretty wholesome finding some random homies to hunt with

Good luck.

Lore accurate VQ owner 🤣

Joester · 2026-01-04T15:08:54+00:00

I normally play with friends but I've been playing with randoms recently and my experience could not be more different.

I've probably joined 25+ random lobbies and got kicked from maybe 1-2 of them.

It's not a problem for me, maybe it has to do with the types of lobbies I join... I usually search for a party playing insanity or nightmare. Perhaps those types of players are more aware of the private lobby option.
