Why is the Focus RS sold above MSRP?
It's just that good.
because you stupid sheep will buy whatever /o/ makes a general thread dedicated to
its not even fast
Because people are willing to pay it. And the hype is unreal. I'm getting one. But I'm not paying any markup. You just have to search.

isnt it just rich whites up there?
>>15276540
That would be considered cheap where I live :^)
Looks to be priced reasonably for how clean it is, maybe trying to get too much back on the modifications but wouldn't we all?

everything
buying one of these babies soon. Smooth and sleek 1997 Lexus LS400, Reported mileage is above 150,000 for sure but does anyone know how long these last generally? Would they be good for long distance travel?
Luxury
Buy the 1998 if you can it's the best. They are very reliable at least when it comes to that engine. So good literally rated for aircraft use.

350,000
So I went shopping for a car with my girlfriend and two children. Long story short, I was chasing the kids around the whole time and somehow we overlooked that the car was a 2015. We asked to see new Toyota Siennas at a Toyota dealership and the “new” one that had the color and features we wanted was a 2015 I guess. We signed the paperwork and paid the price, somehow overlooking the 2015.
Had we known it was a year old model we would have at least asked for a better price. What should we do now?

>having kids
You dun goofed
>not hiring a babysitter so you can car shop in peace
Dumbass.
>>15276162

Does your wife get blacked by jamal?
>>15276175
Well obviously...
Just bought an 06 mustang used with 155,000 miles.
Test drive was fine
First thing I did was change the oil and the air filter, which was black as shit.
While at the shop they said brakes and tires were in good shape.
Anything else I should do to the car?
>>15276113
Get rid of it and buy a gt manual
>fucking auto v6 Jesus christ
>>15276113
What do you want to do with it? Personally I'd remove all the stripes and get a different set of wheels.
Drive off a mountain
Okay, so a friend of mine owns one of these pieces of shit. 2010 Patriot.
The horn is acting up, in a weird way. It goes off randomly. And I don't mean the alarm trips randomly, no, it'll make itself honk whether the vehicle is on or off, and it has no rhyme or reason to the way it goes off.
Sometimes one long continuous honk, sometimes it beeps once, sometimes it's in a series.
The dealership quoted her a fuck ton of money to fix it, and I told her I could take care of it if she just pays for parts. I'm positive I can fix whatever it...

the electro console
its an electronic command center, i think its like a pre-ECU but with fuses or something
its a very well known issue for all chrysler junk-mobiels, but i vaguely remember the TSB for it
but the TSB is well known
>>15276129
If there is a tsb why didn't the dealership fix it?
>>15276106
Op just cut the horn wires
>>15276154
They're not required to fix tsbs proactively. They only pursue that as an avenue of diagnosis. And if it's faulty, maybe make it free.
Red pill me on these cars /o/

>DCT - Stay away
>MTX-75 - Gud trans
Don't get the shitty My Ford Touch, regular sync works better. Basically the biggest complaint about these things is the auto(DCT) transmission. I will say I drove a '15 and the transmission has been re-calibrated since '12, it doesn't do the low speed lurching it used to.
>>15276028
pretty much what this anon said
the 12 i drove was a nice little hatch
>>15276028
Anon beat me to it.
>>15276010
My brother drove a 12 focus auto. Had the transmission replaced 3 times in 2 years before he lemon lawed it. He now drives a 16 Hyundai elantra 6 speed he used to commute with

Ask in /DBT/. You will likely get more serious responses.

dirty carbs, leaking fork seals, exhaust holes, sediment in gas tank, rotten tires, wonky electronics, and depending on the make and model charging failures as the stator craps the bed
all easy to diagnose and fix though

Faster than a Formula 1 car?
The BMW Sauber F1 had an estimated Nurburgring lap time of 5:15, holy shit the R34 is too fast
How optional is the exhaust system a car? Every single part of it is rusted inside and it ratles like hell.
I'm thinking about cutting off from after the manifold until I fabricate a straight pipe.
Won't dirt get inside the cylinders through the manifold?
![maxresdefault[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/ja5e7t8.jpg "maxresdefault[1].jpg")
yes, that's why race cars plug the exhaust and tractors have the little flapper thing
So what are my options here?
Will a rattling inside, caused by rust on the mufflers and expansion chamber, imply that rust is being sucked in to the cylinders?
Would I be better off removing them and using cloth as a makeshift filter?
>>15275445
Cut it off after you fabricate the straight pipe.
