beer parlour gist

take some more bottles
You can call it bear parlors gist but an average Benz from 2002 has

ETS
BAS
ESP
4Matic system
ABS



And so many more ..please that your EOD how many of these features ...and tomorrow you want to race with Benz ...advanced safety car...please , know the limitations of your car....and know what it can do....I advise you bro...so that you can live long

Don't ever race a C class or an E Class be it regular , AMG or Brabus Benz...never ever try it.... Honda is an utility car not designed with top features please


That's why the honda parts are cheap

EOD v6 will eat your 318 or 320 for breakfast. Don't play with that car. You drove a shitty eod, period.
And since you have refused to learn, wallow in your ignorance.
Bros when you bring V6 EOD and bring V6 Benz or BMW...trust me they aren't match ....Honda build utility cars not cars for speed or cornering ...

Please don't see C35 AMG or Brabus and start competing with them with your HONDA EOD

NA BEG I DEY BEG OOOOO


Most C class just like other Benz are 4matic and have what is called ESP...electronic stability programs...with other brake assists apart from ABT, thy have ETS (Electronic traction system) it comes as standard in Benz from 2002 the the BAS amd finally ABS ..Bros that your Honda EOD no get these features and racing a Benz especially on a slippery roads is suicidal

Abeg , biko ...I beg you no try it

I think it has to do with the suspension setup, honestly. Like I said, NVH and build quality is also important.

A bad suspension setup will bounce more, and you'll start hearing sounds. Luxury cars usually have better NVH too, so less road noise and vibrations. Build quality also influence cabin rattles.

When you're going at speed and your car starts bouncing due to suspension issues, plus you start hearing a cacophony of noises, it definitely reduces confidence.
Trust me ...you are one funny dude here...I line the way you make your presentation!

Big bros abeg no do me dis kind strong thing. You know say pepper no gree rest since this Chinese virus start.



Baba I tire o. Like HeavenlyBang rightly pointed out, most persons on here drive rickety Japs at high speeds and expect stability and balance from worn-out suspension systems.

The average German car doesn't tolerate abuse and is likely to be in better shape maintenance-wise than a comparable Jap. The Japs can just about soldier on until they can't, and then they go on some more. The threshold for abuse is very low for a German car and this is a blessing in disguise, because it will mostly likely be in better shape during any face-off on our God forsaken death traps called roads.
I like that narrative ....it is another perspective

I know you can't reply/disagree without being uncouth. Enjoy your experience. wink
What is uncouth about my response. I made a position on my experience and handling of EOD you came with epistle...if I was uncouth can you point it out bro...I am sorry if I was

But the truth is that ..one of the major reasons that drivers die in accident is not knowing the limitations of their cars... It is like racing Honda EOD with C35 AMG or BMW 3 SERIES I bro don't so that...it is like singing ones Requiem or dirge...please don't do that.

It is like me trying me trying to use ML 4MATIC to race a McLaren Benz or CLK that is grounded with low clearance ...In a sharp bend.. that also would be suicidal.

My dear Honda cars aren't designed for performance but for utility (transportation from point A to B) please don't race BMW, Benz , Fiat even posche or Saab...these are performance cars !

We must always know limitations of our cars to avoid stories that touch later or had I known position

You can do 200km/h on the cars you mentioned...but while on it, have you bothered to think what will happen if you need to break or steer suddenly to avoid potholes, animals, people or another vehicle?
No one is saying your vehicle will lift off the ground and take off like a jet but you will indeed lose steering control and stability.

Another way to test how well your car is grounded is to park beside the highway, a road where vehicles are doing average speed of like 120km.
Stay inside the car, you will observe that Ur car will bounce when a vehicle drives past you.
How your car bounces when a car or truck drives past where you are parked will tell you how grounded your car is..I've done this with different cars/SUVs and the results are not the same.
I invented this test myself wink....give it a try and tell us Ur experience. cheesy
Awesome....this is amazing experience

Lol, it didn't fly off, but my current car feels more grounded. I'm not saying that an Accord would fly off at high speeds, but there are quite obviously levels to the stability game. Even the Benz gan won't feel as stable as a Lamborghini. That's just the way it is.
My brother tell am oooo maybe he thinks that EOD is grounded car on high speed maybe he would say it corners better than C Class or BMW 3 series ....

There are things worth arguing...not this

Maybe tomorrow I would be arguing that C class corners better than Bugatti Veyron

People seff no dey know he level their cars are ..na why Dem dey die for highway ... Tomorrow he would want to face AMG C Class with EOD... That would be suicidal !

Na so you go see them for express way using EOD racing C35 AMG... Na die be that

I just pray that exaggeration won't land you in a big trouble someday. Haba! You made this thing sound like a 100-120km/hr is the take-off speed for those cars. The 2003 camry, 2005 Accord and 2005 Avalon, I have pushed those cars to 200km/hr on my favorite section of the Abuja-Lokoja expressway on several occasions but they didn't fly off like a paper as you pointed out. Makes me wonder what type of honder you drove. Have you ever done 180km/hr in your benzedes and it didn't feel lighted than cruising speeds? We all know a German car is a little planted than the japs at speeds and that's why they are a whole lot heavier but stop making it look like it's the end of the world.
@ heavenlybang, you used a Lexus before your current and I am sure you've pushed above 150km/hr before. Did your speedo start reading knots?
Bros ...see me see wahala...na my experience..abi make I tell you say the handling of EOD is like that of a C Class....my experience driving EOD wasn't the same with Benz

It is my experience Oga ...no dey piss for your pants...

It was like a flying carpet...mind you I started driving cars with Japanese...

you definitely are stuck in a village in SouthEast without broad world view so arguing with you is not worth

UK has some of the best residential upscale areas in the world yet when you get to some areas in peckham .. same way Dubai has some of the most expensive neighborhood like Palm Jumerah and Bur Dubai yet if you get to some places in Dierah Dubai you cant stand the stench for a minute among the pakis and the bangalees

so ibdan having places that doesn't fit your description of "rich" doesn't change anything, if you are educated bring fact and figures let us compare SouthWest with your landlocked village

Exactly what I was explaining to some yorubas.

An average Yoruba believes that the higher the taxes, the richer the region.

I don't blame though, they have never produced a renowned Economist before.
My dear there are things I don't even argue with them again...realities would hit them as education statistics hit them...we would wait till June July when the oil isn't selling and see how many state that will ask for bailout...do you know the most indebted region? It is SW

Please compare this Onitsha trailer burning with the one in Ibadan...mind you ibadan is both regional capital and state capital while Onitsha is none

As you ignorantly think people are begging and quiing up for social register makes me understand you are far off reality of Nigeria, but to educate you.. social register is filled up at all ward unit with names of party loyalist across selected LGA, so party LGA boss does the fixing without queue and everybody gets the free Niger Delta money when the approval is made

But then I don't blame you... your people are very ignorant of how Nigerian mainstream politics works

Exclude Lagos, no Yoruba state is leading the SE in bank deposit holdings.

Which GDP? Nigeria doesn't even know her true GDP not to talk of sub-national GDPs.

Taxation has never been a measure of riches but per capita and SW can never beat SE in per capita unless Yemi falsifies another data.
You get time to argue ...the picture says it all...compare that picture with when Onitsha that isn't at it isn't even a state capital

what more do you need as an explanation? or do you need to remind you who and who gets marginalized in every Nigerian government policy?

our people get filled up in the social register not because they are poor, but because their son osinbajo is in power and just like Tradermoni, anchor borrowers and Npower we must enjoy this money as its our right wether poor or not

As for Debt.. we have one of the best Debt to GDP ration in Nigeria, meaning we borrow to develop.. and speaking of debt Lagos - Abeokuta - Ibadan Standard Guage rail line is part of Nigerian debt which your region would pay back while SouthWest enjoys the ride grin

Talk about Politics and Sophistication
LoL this is the most stupid of all excuses I have heard in recent years

So your people are comfortable begging and quiing up for social register..it them means that something is fundermentally wrong with your people or that they really don't have dignity. Trust me I know why I say this

Even in developed countries ...people are so ashamed of living on social benefits and welfare... The society sees such people that keep depending on welfare as never so well..I am talking from global perception.

No reasonable set of people are comfortable quing up in line for hand-outs...it robs one of dignity

An average Yoruba person doesn't understand what IGR and VAT are.

That is what they use to measure regional richness.

SW imposes the highest taxes region in the country
SS follows
Then SE

According to Yemi Bureau of Statistics, since SW taxes their people more, then they most be the richest and since SE refuses to tax their people, then they most be the poorest.
LoL

This is crazy

What happened to disposable incomes, skills, HDI, paid jobs viz a viz the startup and self employment ecosystem, what about capital repatriation and overseas payment ! What about maternal mortality and child health! What about access to child education or girl child education...what about indices like nutrition

Places like Switzerland, Monaco, Maccau are tax heavens...so taxation is the worst way of doing statistics because some region might decide okay...I want to be at tax heavens to attract investment etc

Kindly explain what you mean.
1.is it that when the EOD gets to speeds above 120km/hr, the manufacturers stated mass of the vehicle defies laws of physics and changes ?
2. Are you talking about steering feedback?
3. Are you talking about vehicle traction?
4. Are you talking about oversteer or understeer?
5. Are you talking about the inability of the EOD to generate enough down force to give its tires more traction?
6. How many g's does the EOD pull during a slalom test?

You do realise the EOD has a higher ground clearance and driver position than the c class of the same year?
Ever seen a go-cart with the driver literally millimeters off the ground?
Do you think any sedan will ever feel as planted to the ground as a go-cart?
You do realise a go cart is about ten times lighter than a sedan and will take corners in ways no sedan can?

You sound like me when I was 6 years old.



By the time, you are done answering me all these, maybe you'd know better.
