I have a license but no car. I haven't driven since the day I got my license at age 19. I am now 25.
I can't turn right. I can't parallel park and I can't back into a parking space. My dating life is in shambles.
A girl once told me, and this is verbatim "I can't date no nigga who can't drive and has no car".
Hold me bros. I honestly feel like crying and dying. What can I do to regain confidence.
No wants to let me practice with their car.
Cars are really fuckibg expensive too. But men apparently...

Rent a plain car with an automatic transmission. Dive around town slowly and carefully. Keep doing this all day.
talk to me about the VW Jetta /o/
I'll be car shopping this weekend and I wanted to know if it's a good idea as a first car because there's a few in my price range in my area. I know they're in the sticky but that's only for a new second hand car purchase and need to know if the reliability issues are too much for a first time car buyer/owner.
>>15233845
I would avoid them. They are famous for their unreliability.
My ex had one and used the trip meter to measure the distance between breakdowns, which btw, was never more than 700 miles.
>>15233857
Yeah and the golf is the exact same car which is famous for it's reliability.
Fuck off idiot
>>15233845
You'll be bombarded with "unreliable". They're not, they're picky about maintenance, like most VAG-vehicles.
Pikes Peak Race to the Clouds

Acura will show the world that they built a competitive sports car. You laughed because Acura was different, Acura will laugh because you are all the same.
Let's wait and see.
Oh shit the NSX is going to Pikes Peak?
i'm definitely going to be rooting for my favorite super-car of this era. New NSX a best NSX. kick some ass Acura.
Is Randy Pobst going to try and kill himself again?
What does /o/ think of it
It's hardly talked about but it seems like it'd be popular
>rwd
>manual
>can get one for about 5k
I even kinda like the look of them
Is there something wrong with them?
It's a rebadged mercedes. And mercedes gimped it to make sure it didn't outperform the car it was based on.
>>15233613
>is there something wrong
everything
Rubbish "sports car" for women
Why are 20 year old hondas more reliable than modern super cars?
Why doesn't a quarter of a million dollar price tag and millions of R&D research buy a quality product?
>>15233606
Want power?
Sacrifice reliability.
>>15233617
Why can;t I have both by paying more?
In every other industry more money = high quality. Except the car industry.
Complexity.
Also lean manufacturing was first introduced to mainly increase quality and reduce lead times but are now used to mainly increase profits.
The targets getting squeezed from both sides.
Anyone have experience with the piece of trash Nissan called a motor for their power windows? How easy would it be for me to just replace the power windows with crank windows? I'm sick of dealing with them.
>>15233423
How about you get oem parts instead of shitty aftermarket ones brah.
>>15233453
Even the oem ones suck cock. I bought them right from the start and the regulator goes bad within 6 months, every time. I'm just tired of replacing it over and over.

Git gud faggot, i had a 98 maxima and it was a tank
Hey my family.
How bad of an idea is it to buy an RX7 FB or FC as a first car?
These are pretty much just project cars for the experienced at this point right?
>>15233367
Can you wrench? Can you diagnose a car without obd1 or 2? What do you do if it won't start and you need to be somewhere? Do you have a specialty rotary shop? Can you afford the shit mpg?
>>15233383
>>15233383
Haha my family I just smoke the doobies
>>15233389
This is one end of the rx7 owner spectrum.

What year is the custom cruiser? What engine? Do you like it? I plan on getting one myself
tell you neighbor to do his fucking yard work
also yes.
AW11 or SW20 for first car? I don't really care about practicality, all I really need to carry is my bag to classes.
As far as I can tell, these are the pros and cons that I've thought of between the two cars.
AW11
Pros:
>Lighter
>Looks nicer
>4A-GE
>Cheaper
Cons:
>Slower
>Older, so might need more work
SW20:
Pros:
>Also...

Pros: You're going to snap-oversteer yourself to death
Cons: You're going to crash an MR2 in the process
>MR2
>first car
first track car?
>bags to classes

In my car it is all Rush, all the time.
With that being said, I guess I'd have to say Red Barchetta.

They would walk, but only if there was a foot of snow on the ground. Otherwise they just stay inside by candlelight drinking red wine.
