Try to find a 30 year old Polaris or Kawasaki that still runs

You could have ended at getting an ATV. Why not a dirt bike or dual sport motorcycle instead that won't roll over on top of you and kill you?
ATVs are shit and made for fat retarded rednecks that don't want to spill their beer while riding down the street of a suburban neighborhood at 2:00 a.m.

Assuming from OPs pic he lives in KY.
He most likely wants to ride in the forest. Here in KY our forest have pretty dense undergrowth and lots of surface roots. Which means you can't really ride a dirt bike unless you already have trails cut through your woods or you travel to somewhere you can ride.
Aww fuck yeah, the Big Red's are awesome. I have one up at a farm I like to play around at, they are fun as shit. Sketchy 60kph trike drifts in a dirt field are the best way to spend a day.
What is the best transmission. There is only one true answer. Let's see who gets it right.

so I'm at my local cars and coffee wearing my trump 2016 hat and shirt when some illegal mexican comes up and tries to start some shit with me
he ended up kicking off the door mirror on my BRZ. I fucked his nose and ribs up good before the crowd pushed him off site.
how difficult is it to replace a door mirror on a brz?

FUCKING RACIST SHITLORD
I like them, but why do they keep crashing? I keep seeing youtube videos of cars spinning out of control randomly and they're always mustangs or vettes.
wtf causes this?
been watching compilations like this one

This is what i was thinking but what about the non car meet ones, where they're just cruising on the highway and then bam control lost?
All i can think of is crappy diff putting power down un-evenly
>>14956197
If that's all you can think of then you can't think very well. Big RWD power relatively cheap = lots of idiots driving cars they can't control. Show me a video of a mustang our vette "randomly spinning out of control on the highway"
Currently @ the Flugplatz on the Nordschleife.
What are you faggots doing?
Woke up sick, now i'm back from work and half dead. So, sleep, soon, probably.
>>14956125

>>14956133
Only 1 in the carpark. And there's 1 mustang on the track.

>what's the point of being on this board
To make gm fangirls cry.
>>14955661
We need to find some other auto community that isn't polluted by nazis and shitposters.
Or we need a good old purge of the filth.
>>14955661
>make a quality thread
Let me guess, you made a thread to lie about how Chevy is a good auto maker and you are deluded enough to think that opinion was of any "quality".
It's just that we don't suffer fools easily here, it's not a free for all for uneducated opinions.

Is it achievable? The closest I think I can get is base NA Miata; don't want 4banger BMW.
>>14955608
Miata is always the answer.
Don't forget that anon.

Fiat Palio with the 5 cyl
Stilo also has a 5 cyl
and the Lancia counterpart of the Palio
What car is this?? It doesn't show on the back of the car. I'm guessing some kind of e class?
I see this every day of work and I'm in love with this car. Just haven't seen the owner yet to ask and also I guess there is a reason why they didn't write the model on the back so..
Thank you for any help!!
Previous generation C-Class coupe.
It's a civic
>>14955524
This.
OP - you can tick a box when you order one to not have any badges put on. Or of course, you can remove them yourself for a cleaner look / whatever other reason.
Nice cars, they have aged well.

When do you need to change spark plugs and what do you notice after you've done it?
you should check with the plug manufacturer. It's usually 50k to 150k between replacements.
bad plugs can cause a 20% drop in efficiency if left long enough
Shade tree mechanic way to check is unscrew the plug, connect it back up to its wire, start the car and touch the tip of the plug (the part that goes into the engine) to your tongue. It is a lot like checking a 9v battery. Not the most comfortable thing to do but if you feel that same tingling/weird feeling you know the plug is still good.
When your plugs really go you will notice it on idle and acceleration.
You will probably start getting misfires and a CEL of they go bad
what kind of music does /o/ listen to when they drive? is it different when you're cruising or commuting?

The harmony of my engine
No radio in my weekend car so just engine and turbo noises.
99.3 Fox in my daily to and from work.
Idk, just chucked 60GB worth of crap onto my stuck and put the headunit on shuffle.
stops me knowing where my jam is at the wrong time in the wrong frame of self control.

DAAAAMMMMNNN.
what do you guys think of a good condition 1996 BMW 328i (it says sports package?) for about 9 grand. it's super clean..... but I never had a bmw. is this a good deal? also, will be using as my daily driver until later this year
>>14955054
Too expensive. You can get a e36 M3 for that or a little more.
Are you American? Does the car have like 50k miles? That is a fucking insanely high price dude. I'm going to need a link. That car should be half that price, hell that is M3 price range.
>>14955054
>is this a good deal?
not even remotely. this is probably the worst price I've ever heard in my life.

Just saw it at a local shopping plaza in the Bay area. The guy told me it's a V8 chevy, from the 1950s but I can't find anything like it online. I'm not sure if I heard him correctly.
