What is the definitive cuckmobile? You know, the vehicle a man buys because his wife tells him to. It used to be the Minivan.
Pic probably unrelated.
Prius.
Bump. The w/o/rld must kn/o/w.

Any SUV except 2 door jeep.
Is the Nissan versa really worth it you guys brand new?
>>15139091
No
>>15139091
no, buy anything else. spend a little more money and get something far better
>>15139091
NO. It has some of the highest buyer's remorse according to consumer reports.
Seems like a decent way to get a cheap V8. I know some people don't like the look, but whatever, its not their car.
No weight over the rear wheels means it won't perform as well as equivalent muscle
It's a great functional car but people see you as a scary bum.
>>15139075
Makes sense, Performance isn't what i'm going after though, so that's ok.

Likely on't be for a couple years but I'm bored and would like to hear opinions; selling my 370z, stuck between these three cars as my next DD:
Note: all would be manual and I have not test driven any due to laziness
E92:
+ Comfiest interior
+ Best DD
+ Can badgewhore
+ Not too flashy
+ Really good visibility (sick of not being able to see anything in modern cars)
+ Last good 3 series
+ Very good balance of what I want in a car although nothing particularly stands out either
- Low on power
- Most expensive to maintain
- Everything...

I drive an AP2 and my only complaint is the lack of space.
>Has that X factor that the C6 lacks
the fuck you talking about?
>>15138772
Some cars just really stick out to me for no real objective reason, the S2K does that whereas the C6 doesn't, this isn't one of my heavier influences however. Space also isn't much of a concern for me.
>>15138758
E46 was the last good 3-series brah. No dipstick in the e92.
Why does Subaru try to imitate the sound of a v6 with unequal length headers, why not just put an actually good engine in the WRX instead?
>>15138697
nice b8

#1 rule of jewconomics: if people are still paying premium prices for your bags of shit, don't touch it.
Local car club discussion.
Anyone have any good local car clubs or stories about local car clubs?
Around my area we have the WCEC it's basically mostly either stancefags or people talking up their Saturn ions. Honestly that reading that groups Facebook page makes the average /o/ thread look coherent and well thought out in comparison.
Every time I go down to the river I see a group of these faggots revving up their 90s shitstangs and showing off their epic mods.
And in my town we have this little group of guys that all drive jacked up El Caminos,...

How do people talk up Saturn Ions? I own one and saw a Mexican in one with a big exhaust tip. It's the epitome of a commuter shitbox
>>15138714
No idea anon. I've always thought they were complete garbage but the kids around here will try to mod them into tuners. I guess they were too poor to afford a civic or a celica
One of the posts I read yesterday was about a kid who was pissed off that some old lady thought his window decals were gay. The guy had a comp cams decal on his saturn ion. He is a living breathing meme.
>get new tires

welp
>>15138657
>new tires
>rains
>crashes
new tires make sure that doesnt happen because of all the water evacuation channels and sipes. you're just a shitty driver
>>15138657
nigga I hope you haven't crashed a glorious AWD subaru.
I had two of them through my P plates in Australia and hooned around sideways erry day.
All confidence, no skill. Can't believe I survived. Subaru's AWD system saved my ass a million times.
Now I ride motorbikes but. Thank god I waited till I was 25+ to get on a bike.
And now you know why tire shops recommend doing a smokey burnout in the parking lot to break in your new tires.
I'm starting to get a boner for malaise era cars. They're cheap, easy to modernize, and have a unique, albeit quirky style.
The best part is boomers hate them so you'll rarely find rusty shells listed at $10k.
Take this for example. A cute little 4 door, A 302 to build off of, only weighs about 3000lbs. No boomer tax, no ricer tax. Cheap to buy, cheap to build. What's not to love?
If you could get a restored daily driver (not boomer bait like Bel-Airs, Thunderbirds and Muscle Cars), would you? Even with the amount of maintenance you would have to do?
depends on what it is
I wouldnt drive old American garbage but something like a BMW 2002 or TA22 Celica Id be all over
1960 Ford Falcon sedan with a 302 and manual trans.
Oh and a little dancing hula figure on the dash
I'd take a mint notchback foxbody in calypso green or a 240z.
getting these LED fogs, brighter than Hids... thoughts?
>>15138457
Don't.
>>15138462
This
Mexican detected.
Would you daily a 04 Grand Prix GT? This one has 114k miles. They're asking 3900$.
>>15138273
My ex bought an 05 for $1000 with a blown transmission and 180k. He replaced the transmission and drove it for another 100k. Great cars. Virtually indestructible.
>>15138290
My mom had a gran prix, they have terrible transmissions. She had to replace hers because it blew up too.
>>15138290
>>15138300
So I'm getting virtually indestructible, and horrible transmissions. Lol.
Possible first bike, any thoughts? I'm relatively new to bikes. I'm taking an msf course this month. https://syracuse.craigslist.org/mcy/5603231568.html
:)
>>15138214
not a harley. kill yourself.
>>15138214
I enjoyed my msf class, I'd take the class before you buy the bike. I'm assuming your class also provides some dual sport loaners.
>>15138214
Class is fun, don't be nervous or intimidated
Don't cry if you can't get everything right away
Tell me why I shouldn't buy this manual transmission '84 Mercedes 300D?
money
>>15138054
I can't think of any good reasons based on that picture alone.
So either buy it or give us more info.
>>15138062
its only 3k and matiennce will be done by me
>>15138066
im seriously considering it.

Turbos BTFO
>Camaro V6: 0.5 sec to 0.2 g accel @ 1500 rpm
>Mustang Ecoboost: 1.3 sec to 0.2 g accel @ 1500 rpm
This might be the most important Mustang vs. Camaro comparo ever
the most pointless thing in automotive history
And then after the initial delay, the ecoboost takes off and leaves the Camaro in the dust
kek, will nacucks ever recover?
