Good evening, aut/o/. I'm saving up and about to buy my first car ever (on my own), and I just can't decide what would suit me best. The truth is, I don't have much of an idea when it comes to autos, especially in these makes and models. Insight or general advice would be most appreciated.
My requirements include:
- AWD/4X4
- Manual transmission
- Small / Mid sized
- 50k to 150k miles
- $2000 to $7000, could pay more but would have to be compelled.
- Something I can drive moderately rough without worrying about it crapping out.

>>14966837
What can I expect for $3k? $5k? $7k?
>>14966840
I didn't think Civics have awd?
are you involved with your local car club?
there is no car culture where i live, so no.

Americans of /o/, why haven't you imported one of these sexy bricks yet?
Because I have no money.
>>14960907
Because I want to import a Beat instead.
Because it's shit.

How's puberty treating you?
Anyone here have one of these in their tool box?
are they actually useful?
Nah, I prefer having actual sockets that fit properly so there is not a chance of damaging the bolt/nut
The stud remover or the 1/4 hex to 3/8 adapter? I have both and they are both useful.

nice garage and tools anon
ever since i moved out of my parents, i haven't had any tools besides the basics, so i'm slowly buying more as i need them.
Why do dumped cars offend /o/ so bad?
>>14964408
So now they're called dumped? Probably since they belong in a dump since they're so useless.
>>14964408
Because typically outside of drifting scenes it doesn't make sense to do such a thing to your car especially when FWD cars have excessive camber since it literally makes no sense functionally.
It's also that making a "Show car" out of a higher performance car like bagging an M3/Supra/GTR/etc makes the performance part pointless and at that point you bagged it just as a status thing when you could have done it do any 3 series instead of taking away an M3 from someone who would actually use it.
Dumped like someone has taken a dump on the cars suspension?
Why does /o/ hate the BRZ so much?
>inb4 MUH STRAIGHT LINE SPEED
The engine isn't very good or fun. It has a weird torque dip and sounds like a broken vacuum cleaner with a exhaust. And it could've stood to get another 20hp or be $2000 cheaper (I honestly feel if it did people would change their mind by a lot)
People like /o/ whined for years about how nobody made simple, cheap, low-powered sports cars like they did in the 80's and 90's. Then someone finally made one and it was underwhelming, just like the cars they idolized.
>>14964067
torque dip? wat

What can you tell me about the outback sport

shut up and buy a civic.

Spotted the memespouting nocar faggot.
>>14948124
don't listen to this meme spouting parrot
the outback sport has the elder god tier 2.2 liter EJ22. No head gasket issues, and the spark plugs are not at the end of the heads so they are easily accessible. also, lesbians prefer the outback and the forester.
I daily drive a short bus of my own accord.
I bought it about 5 months ago.
The a40d automatic blew up a couple weeks ago and I'm just about done swapping it to a zf5 manual, ordered the clutch master cylinder this morning for the pedal swap.
Ask me anything, its been a while since I came round these parts.

is it comfy?
What have you done with the space?
Why do people say people have a small dick for buying a vechicle they enjoy. Trucks, sports cars, luxury cars, super cars, motorcycles etc all seem to get these kind of comments. Why is it only acceptable to drive an econobox?
Pic semi related
Who cares drive what you like.
Why do you have a small dick?
What's /o/s opinion on gas. I personally use shell and chevron. But they are a little pricey so I was looking into costco, anybody have experience with there gas? Is it good?
Vape bump
Not OP, but does it really matter in shitbox?
It all has to meet standards doesn't it? As long as the gas station isn't too old and they go through gas quick enough, does it really make that big of a difference ?
Vape and scrape bump

Is his car stock?
>>14954396
It's fwd though.
how heavily modified was the prelude? doubt it was stock, they're kinda sloppy stock
if you mod up your miata (turbo, coilovers, brakes) it will be better than that
That's an alternator right?
Becauae they make piston cucks feel inferior
>>14954181
No, it's the pump for the headlight fluid.
How can I VIP without being mistaken for a stancefag?
Don't rig up tow hooks that are only screwed into the plastic bumper and don't hang a drift charm on it, and don't do this on a fwd car.
Don't cut your bumper and do the zip tie bullshit
Don't rust your hood
Don't get a roof rack with a bunch of useless bullshit on it
Don't mismatch the fenders
Don't stickerbomb the car
Don't put 30,000 stickers on the windows
Don't vape
Don't create an absolutely excessive amount of camber to the point that the structural integrity of the wheel and tire is compromised
