New car mfrs. and used car sellers should provide this ratio directly to inform buyers. It seems so basic…Any insight why they don’t?
The ratio can be manipulated somewhat and should generally just be a guide, and the assumed conditions of its calculation stated, but it’s still meaningful when comparing - 1 car to another. What do you think and why? |

My reason for posting this question is because after months of online research and test drives of new cars, the myriads of variable are staggering and of course I really don't know what I want. Still in the information collecting stage.
Here is a summary of a few that I am looking at and putting the P:W ratio as a factor provides some important insight: Car $ Engine P:W 1974 Porsche 2.0L/4 1:22.5 (comparison baseline) 1 $48K Turbo 2.0L/I4 1:17 2 $61K NA 3.6L/V6 1:13.5 3 $110K Turbo 3.0L/V6 1:13 4 $130K Twin Turbo 4.0L/V8 1:10 |
