I don't see the problem with someone wanting to better his launch skills or see how his latest tune or whatever affected his E.T.
Are you under the impression only purpose-built cars should show up or something?

back to MCM, Moog
So, guys what would be the best way to damage a car without it being apparent that someone did it and to the point that the car is basically a write off. So, please without suggestions like set it on fire, smash it with a baseball bat etc.
The reason for me wanting to know this is personal.
Sugar in gas tank
Niggar in gas tank
>>13825433
Wont work.
Though I might be wrong, so try dissolving sugar in gasoline as a test.
Does anyone know what this is called? It's a small flip down compartment in my 2010 Highlander and the plastic/spring mechanism broke and I would like to replace it - but I can't find the part listed anywhere online (or don't know what to search for)
Is that a cupholder or something?
That's the panel for your fuse box.
>>13825252
No, in the middle is a little flip down thing to hold change or some shit. Just a small compartment and the spring that opens it broke.
>>13825255
Thanks, I'll see if I can find it
give me one reason why i shouldnt get a C4

Why?
>>13825006
FRS definitely does not look good with big sidewalls
because he can
do you have some sort of disorder where you cannot comprehend why others would do something you wouldnt? do you actually have to come to 4chan and ask for help with understanding?
fucking autism dude

Why not?
alrighty, /o/
I can't decide on the tires.
I'm going for 235/40/18 for summer on 18x8.5 rims for summer,
and same setup for winter tires, because I won't be driving in snow and/or ice,
winters are very short here and come late, but we are bound to change tires early,
and drive around on sunny days and occasional rains ON WINTER TIRES.
so, I'm choosing between:
>Toyo Proxes 1
>Toyo Proxes T1
>Michelin Pilot Sport 3
>Michelin...
Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

for summer tires, and
>Toyo Proxes 4 Plus
>Michelin Pilot A/S 3
for winter

I seriously can't find any decent reviews comparing the pairs, so I turn to you, for your personal experiences and/or knowledges on the topic.

Listen here guys, the new Malibu weighs 3,124lbs for it's base model. Think about this madness. Chevy(!) is now in charge of taking weight off aut/o/mobiles! Did we ask for this? Is this what Adam Jensen wanted?
I have high hopes for the baby Camaro. Maybe they'll make the Sonic fast?
>>13824808
I recall the old one also won several awards despite being total horseshit. I wouldn't get my hopes too high if I were you.
>>13824850
this. i only expect rental quality from chevy these days
>>13824808
I love how this intro picture has an angle that makes the car like it actually has windows and as if it was sleek and elegant.
In reality it's your run off the mill pig fatness.
I need your help /o/. Show me your best car ads. I need old ones, like the ones with volvo. Posters especially.
>crossovers expected to be the majority of new cars in the 2020s
>downsizing continues, turbo inline 4s replace 6 and even 8 cylinder egines, 3 cylinders getting really common too
>big increase in electrical nannies that annoy the shit out of you and will fail when your car gets out of warranty
sounds fine to me

Would you guys ever buy used tires?
https://newyork.craigslist.org/wch/wto/5303904166.html
I can't tell if it says 2714 or 2711... if they are 2714, no uneven wear, visible cracking or such then I think they'd be perfectly safe
If they are are 2711 they are starting to become a bit old and may only last you two seasons more at most, and even then I'd be skeptical for the second season
Not off wheels. If you are really set on looking at them look for noticeable damage on the inside and around the bead. Your local used tire shop will have tires known to hold air so you can also get a set there. Typically bought on wheels from wrecked cars.
>>13824624
I do it all the time.
Shitbox Corolla has a bent frame and no matter how hard I try it's just not going to drive straight ever again. Car just eats up tires, so no sense in buying new ones.
Tempted to pick up an MK3 or MK4 to commute in.
Have 3k to spend.
What can yall tell me about them?
Still undecided if i want a 2 door or 4 door
>>13824547
Mk4 4 door. And don't stance it.
why not a mk1
http://peoria.craigslist.org/cto/5279483527.html
so cheap
>>13824564
I wont, its staying stock.
>>13824573
Eh ive been in my friends MK2 and it feels "flimsy". Like alot of roadnoise mostly. Cant imagine the MK1 is any better.
bmw best
no doubt about it
>>13824513
'no'
an m6 will rip that in pieces
What's /o/ opinion on the new Chrysler 200? V6, AWD... Seems like a great deal.
http://www.autotrader.ca/a/Chrysler/200/Terrebonne/Quebec/5_25178814_2005416202706/?ursrc=hl&showcpo=ShowCPO&orup=86_15_2899
>>13824480
It's decent, my brother in law has one, he loves it.
Pros
V6 power
AWD
Loaded with tech shit
Cons
The backseat is tighter than my Monte Carlo
It's a Chrysler 200, not the God tier 300
>>13824480
>2015
>considering FCA products
The fuck is wrong with you?

Could you be my fine gentleman of african-american descent?
