Citroen DS
They ARE very cool cars. Look into them some time, you'll be very intrigued for sure. They're completely different and super innovative compared to anything else of their time.
Heads up, next meet at GMR June 18th

Who brought that piece of shit truck?
I've been thinking about getting a Z31. There's plenty being sold near me, and they're all fairly inexpensive. Should I go for it? Are there any specific problems I should look out for?
>>15221285
Both of these were from my local Craigslist.
they're slow as fuck and don't have that great of handling either. reliability is an issue, especially for the turbo trims. just remember that you are buying a 30 year old car that wasn't even that reliable in its day. give it a go if you really want one and have a second car.
I want to buy a 1970 fiat 500 in yelliw for my first car. How awful of a idea is this what can i expect to pay?
>anything classic for a first car
It's almost like you don't like money or actually driving.
>>15221027
Also what can i do to soup it up? i think i read some where it could only go 55 miles per hour
>>15221027
Oh and one other thing, how.much trouble would it be to blget it in a different color and then give it a paint jog?
Why don't you guys have a qt3.14 that will go to the Pick N Pull to get parts with you?
Pic related is mine.
>>15220927
I do. And shes better looking than the crack whore you posted
>>15220927
She isn't qt.
Hey /o/ some jackass hit my car while it was parked and left a hole in the rear bumper. How much would this cost to fix? Is it even worth taking it into a shop for such a small problem?
Here's a closer picture
>>15220818
kek no
just wait for a another guys to rear-end you and make his assurance pay
>>15220818
And nothing of value was lost.
How expensive is it or difficult is it to install an AWD system on your car if the company already created a trim where that car had AWD?
Fuck you i don't do what you tell me
>>15220724
Not terribly hard. Check the 3000gt awd conversions, they're well documented and should give you an idea of where to start, most were just brainstormed into existence by the forum guys.
>>15220870
So, however much you need to get a donor car and get possibly bolts machined. Sub 2k at most
How do I know if I need new brake light bulbs?
I drive an 05 mustang and when my headlights are off and I press the brakes, only 3/6 tail lights turn on.
When my head lights are on all 6 of the tail lights are on. Then when I press the brakes only 3/6 light up brighter than the rest.
I'm confused that since the tail lights do come on when I turn my headlights on, does that mean they're working fine and not burned out but rather some electrical problem causing only some of them to react when I brake?
>>15220712
Bad grounding, start chasing wiring around the wonky light and look for broken or damaged wires and corroded ground connections
>>15220712
Tail lights and brake lights use two different filaments inside the bulb. When you turn the headlights on, one set of filaments lights up and when you press the brake pedal the other set of filaments lights up (that's why it gets brighter). The ones that come on with the headlights are working, and the ones that come on with the brake pedal on one side are not. The problem could be that somehow you got a surge that burned out all 3 of the brake light part of the bulbs one one side, or more likely what Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

>>15220745
Okay sounds good. I'll guess I'll check out the wiring and see what I can find and if that doesn't work then I'll try to replace the bulb.
Is one filament burning out before the other one a rare occurrence?
Why rich rednecks can't into aerodynamics?
>>15220665
do you think cars going over 300mph don't have aerodynamic thought put into them?

Pretty sure that's some pretty advanced aero given the regulations. Too bad abusive aero F1 died in 2008.

First Car Thread
Hey /o/, I'd like help in choosing a first car. Post your suggestions and your first car if you want.

Just get a camry and learn to fix it on your own. Take apart and put back stuff in its place. Once you get a grasp of fixing a vehicle than you can move onto higher maintenance cars.

I would if there were any good cheap ones (there isn't)
I would be if my options weren't shotbox Peugeots, Resultants or overpriced shitbox BMWs and VWs
There's a kind of a boomer tax on diesels where I am that completely negates any fuel savings you gain by going diesel.
I changed my mind, I don't want an FRS anymore after more research. I want a WRX now but she still doesn't want me to get one. What do /o/?
Also I don't vape or drink energy drinks.
>>15220222
Punch her in the fucking face
>>15220222
Are you a cuck? Its your money do whatever you want.
I don't see why she wouldnt want it, its a highly rated safe sedan
Hope you get it bro soobies are the best
Uh oh! There's an alien spaceship above earth! OH NO! They're shooting at every car parked outside! You have your car safe in your garage, right?
Two are. Third one is sorta fucked
>>15220175
What? No. But it's not like you'd get any use out of one with the roads full of dead cars.
Garages in the UK don't fit modern cars even when otherwise empty.
>>15220175
Of course, I'm not a barbarian.
Post your problems here.

From the left
First arrow shows nothing out of the ordinary
Second and third shows something you see on any car BUT usually hidden by some trim
Forth is atrocious; bent plastic?
Fifth - I don't know what am I suppose to see there ... grass through clear plastic?
More pics/angles would be nice!
I might by this 1990 NA 5 speed FC with 95,000 miles on it. How can I make it fast and what should I fix first? It's been sitting for 9 years with dead battery...
How much should I be paying?
It's a GXL
