What the hell am I going to do /o/?
Find a big hill and roll them down it?
Find a big hue and burn them in it?
Pile them up in your backyard and light them on fire, we're in America after all

Oh boy, what'd you do now OP
Okay /o/, I have a question. Give me ONE (1) reason why I should change my own oil, when I can get it replaced for me, with full synthetic oil, brake inspection, and tire rotation for less than $20.
After years and years and years of working my ass off, I am finally in a financial spot where I can afford to buy myself something nice. A little treat to reward myself.
I want a weekend car. Something fast. I cant break the bank (so no Bugatti lol), but anything under 300k is easily doable.
Problem is, I've never driven a sports car before. I don't even know how to drive a manual.
I absolutely not want to be one of those douchebags who drives a Ferrari and crashes it around the first corner they hit.
Is it possible to transition straight...

audi r8 sounds like a good option, 4wd to keep you out of ditches and trees.
Why spend so much money when you can just get an old civic, throw in a couple mods and dust these bitch lambos all day
I got a Mazda Miata 1992. And accidently I left the keys on the trunk. This model doesn’t have a trunk realease in the front side.... Anyone know any trick to release the trunk ? I’m really far from the city right now. (Bonus points if it doesnt screw up my car)
op is stupid same shit happened to me
>>15113568
I don't see any way but the only way possible is to open up the trunk by calling a mechanic. That can actually "screw up" the trunk.
Good luck in getting your keys back.
>>15113568
Just wait for the car to rust open so you can reach into the trunk cavity to retrieve the keys.
Don't worry about it taking too long—the car will rust faster than it accelerates.

>I am able to run US/Canadian VINs (anything with a fitting VIN; bikes, cars and so on) and US plates. For plates the same rules apply as VINs; 1981 or newer, US registered, and the plate and state are needed. Plates do work most of the time, but VINs are more reliable.
