Hello.
Going for my 3rd vehicle purchase after i sell my car.
I like 2 doors and i want rwd preferably but awd is acceptable....
Manual is also a preference.
My issue.....i like too many vehicles and they are all in my price range....
Anyone else ever have this problem. I have no brand loyalty....i have no engine favoritism...
My current list as of now is
>srt10 ram
>svt lightning
> audi s5 or s6
> infinity g37s coupe
> nissan 370z sport/nismo
> trailblazer ss
> corvette c5
>subaru brz
> hyundai genisis 38 rspec
> first gen ctsv sedan
> subaru wrx
> crossfire srt6
> miata
> camaro ss
>challenger rt
>mustang with a kenne (the only good mustang)
>srt8 300
>pontiac solstice gxp
> g8 gt/gxp
Does anyone else have a "if i had 25k to burn what would i buy" conundrum?
Pic unrelated. Im not making a collage

That's quite a range of cars anon.. All with their own pros and cons. Personally my next car will probably be a WRX. Or a Civic Type R if we get one in the US by 2018.
>>14968861
I know. Its killing me.
Worst off is there are even more on that list below budget that vary even more....
>srt4 neon
>conquest tsi
> eagle talon tsi
>240sx
>datsun fairladys of multiple years
> c10 pickup
>3000gt vr4 or dodge

what's your price range?
keep in mind, an NC miata with a supercharger and proper coilovers can outperform most of that list and feel really fun while doing so
Hey guys I might have messed up my car (kinda like pic related but not as good looking)
I recently picked up a Cobb accesport tuner and the tuner software, after driving around on the base maps for my mods I wanted more power so I decided to try and tune for myself. I wasn't sure exactly what to do but I decided to just raise all of the numbers across the board higher (fuel, ignition maps stuff like that) and go for a few pulls to data log. Well during one of the pull I heard a loud metallic kinda bang and my car starting flashing lights everywhere. Any help, I...

Bread on hood.
i found a wallet today and intsead of being cool about it, i sperged out
guy was obviously loaded with a few nice cars, bikes, a yacht... and really wanted to know be but i went all "anon"
he knows i know where he lives (since i had his wallet) so how weird would it be if i just met up with him around his house (he lives right near a major public park).. is it stalkerish to just say hi? my austism has failed me.
Not sure where you're going with this...do you want to be his friend? Or steal from him?

you are fucking scum
What is a safer yet just/almost as fun alternative to a miata? I'm thinking either an e30 or foxbody
>>14968519
>I'm thinking either an e30 or foxbody
every foxbody is rusted to all hell
80's crash test requirements were pathetic
good luck getting an e30 for cheap
go finance new miata
>fun
>miata
no power
>e30
german no power
>foxbody
no power cant turn noodle

So I got an amazing deal on a 2001 Allroa Quattro and after driving it I was amazed and just bought it on the spot, making the mistake of not doing some research.
This thing looks like a money time bomb. Many reviews saying air suspension inevitably goes out before 100,000 and transmission failure is common. Does anyone have experience with these things who knows if these horror stories are something to worry about - or good maintenance tips to offset Audi's faulty parts that cause this?
>>14968437
Why the fuck would you buy a car and do no research beforehand?
You also get to deal with this when it fails. Oh, BTW, this is the back of the engine.
>>14968437
lel another idiot falling for the upmarketed overpriced audi meme...
yeah, you're pretty much fucked, especially if its the model from your picture...
the problems you listed aren't an if, but a when
not to even start mentioning all the myriad of other fucked up shit those cars bring along...
fuck you OP for being a dumb shit to the double
buying on the spot and buying an audi
Because I'm idiot.. I've heard of the timing belt being a problem too, yeah.. Jesus.. WHat were your experiences?
Is little tree drift charms /o/ enough for you?

It might not be over. There's no fucking way I'm tipping an Uber driver.
Hey /o/
Is there such thing as a moddable, build it yourself ECU?
Most cars today come with ECUs, and they're a crucial part of any car, but they all seem to be these untouchable black boxes that everyone is afraid of and you never mess with. Plus they cost thousands of dollars.
Is there a build it yourself, moddable ECU that you can program however you like on the cheap? Have any of you tried it?
Kind of like a linux-tier ECU?

>>14968288
Not that I know. You can tune your own ECU though, just search for Cobb's AccessTuner Race if you want an idea.
>>14968288
Is there anyway to retrofit OBD II to an older car?
As in is it just a connector/jack or a box that all the sensors go through?
I have around $20k to put down on a car. What would you buy if you had that and were able to put around 10k into a car each year after?
>>14968260
CTS-V Wagon
I would buy a 15k car in cash, put the remainder and 10k yearly thereafter towards a house down payment.

Seb causes crash with him in China, he doesn't whine or bitch about Ferrari International Assistance letting Seb get away with it, he just calmly takes the crying bitch out in Russia. Nice work Kvyat keep it up.

Laws on where they can go, or be sold?
Sorry for blogposting, but I'm finally buying my first car on my own since starting my first "real" job. I'm upgrading from a 2003 autotragic PT Cruiser that had lots of issues, but it was given to me by my father so I couldn't turn it down.
The car I'm looking at is a 2013 Nissan Versa S (manual trans) with 29k miles on it. The dealer was asking $9k but I went to another Nissan dealer and made them price match so they quoted me at $7k.
I checked the VIN and carfax and there's no history of wrecks or damage, just a small scratch...

Entry level Nissans are shitboxes. The car is going to do nothing but depreciate on you the entire time you own it. Find an older Corolla with similar mileage, put the money into a 401k instead.
>>14967806
>older corolla
>29k miles
not gunna happen cool guy
hes better off getting an early 00s honda with 90-110k miles
>>14967789
If you're going to buy a shitbox at least buy an actual cheap one. Fug
why don't you guys talk about the Volvo c30? I'm thinking of getting one
>>14967486
Because it's the first rule of the Volvo C30.
Seriously though, they're pretty damn decent, but hard as hell to find.
>>14967486
Try to find one with the T5 engine if you can. Godlike sound.
Besides that, they're kinda heavy, handle alright, aren't the fastest thing around but have enough push, and they're not very practical for a sensible Swedish hatchback.
They also look really goddamn good.
>be looking for cheap econobox with good mpg
>discover fiesta
>none found within 100 miles with a hatch and manual
Fucking REEEEEEEE
>>14967452
>murrica
>manual
good luck
