to compete with memeatas and to part dumb teenagers with their money
Br/o/s, what car should I buy in order to learn manual transmission but also has a little horsepower? A good starter for eventually graduating up to a serious performance car when I have old guy money someday.
Current daily driver is a 2013 Toyota Corolla. No horsepower and I feel like a faggot when driving it.
>>15057251
Civics are cheap, good gearbox for the price.
C4 Corvette is a good choice.
I learned on my LS1 Firebird, had no issues and the engine/transmission is very reliable.
some stupid cheap underpowered shitbox, master it and never stall anything ever again
Why do people deface their own cars like this?

It was too happy to be a car.
So they modernized it

Say you fancy yourself a regular bogan and want an older Honda civic
But the local market is outrageous.
Is the fit a good undiscovered alternative tuner car? Is there any of the gumption of the older civics eh?

I came here to say this.
nah, they aren't as good, shitty solid rear axle suspension
would be fun to swap a k20 and just use it for highway pulls
if you want a classic fwd sports car get an ae110 or import a civic from japan wher ethey are cheaper

I'm looking at the Buick Verano in 2013 or 2014. I'm having a hard time finding long term reliabailty because this car is so low volume.
>>15056781
Buick has repeatedly been in the top 10 most reliable cars for decades now. Great cars.
>>15056781
It's an upgraded Chevrolet Cruze. Pretty reliable from what I've heard.
Opel Astra with a bodykit, never heard many major complaints.

I'm about to go look at a 99 Subaru Outback ( pic not it ) and I was wondering what /o/ thinks I should look for. I know to check coolant for oil to see if it has a bad head gasket, but what else? If everything looks good I may be trading my Lexus SC400 for it + Cash.
That's not a good year to buy unless head gaskets were already done. Check the oil...does it look like a malt shake? Does it overheat?
>>15056373
Check for rust. The frame rails and rear quarter panels are notorious for this.
>>15056373
make sure to check the oil/coolant AFTER you go for a test drive, let the rpm go high (close to redline if you can)
owner could just change the fluids before selling to make it look like theres no head gasket leak. and check the frame rails for rust
also...is the sc400 really that bad on gas?
Does anyone have an exact replica of Elliot Rodger's BMW??.
>>15056204
What wheels are those? I need new winter tires so I might consider getting these for my e92
>>15056272
Not so sure to be honest.
>>15056204
I have the same color, but it has the sport package and aluminum trim.
ITT: We post cars half the price of a Nissan GTR Nismo, yet are faster around a track.

pathetic attempt at trolling, just as pathetic as the corvette itself

I'm looking to spend around £2000 - £3000 on a miata to use as my daily for around 2 years while I save for something nicer
(Not that I dislike miatas but 2 years from now I'd like to spend around 20k on something that's going to last me years and years and I'll fall in love with(
Just want your guys opinion on whether or not this looks like a half decent car for £2k?
http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201605133926227
I filtered for yellow because I've always wanted a yellow convertible.
God damn why is every Miata in my area so expensive compared to this?
>>15057694
Because the UK has stupidly cheap used cars for some reason.
>>15056062
Buy Miata.
Keep Miata.
Daily Miata.
Love Miata.
Does anyone know of any good aftermarket headrests that can fit a Honda Civic 2012?
I just bought this car and it's a good drive, but the headrest gives me awful neck pain (pic related, it's the same model)
Just slouch more, you are driving a civic after all, nothing to be proud of.
Heat up the metal parts that stick into the back of the seat and bend them, or google 'aftermarket headrest 2012 civic'
>>15056061
Googling was the first thing I tried. It turned up plenty of complaints like mine, but no actual solutions.
How much stock do you put into IIHS crash test ratings when buying a car?
Is there a different safety rating system that is more accurate?
>implying a board where everyone drives 1980's shitboxes knows anything about vehicle safety
My truck doesn't even have seatbelts
I don't got a heck to give
not at all.
my car has no airbags, no traction or stability control and no ABS.

Nice truck man! Unibody? I've got a 62' myself.

>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.
