Finally found a decent deal on one of these and purchased.
So far it's exceeded my expectations for a 30 year old car.
Feel free to ask questions.

Congrats, you could have bought a car with twice the capabilities for less.
What's /o/'s opinion on the third gen Toyota Supra?
>>14904400
It's not as good as the BMW 8 series, which looks identical and comes with a v12
>>14904400
1G is shit, 7M is shit, 1JZ is good
Looks nice
Handles badly because lolheavy
Fairly reliable
Nice interior
Cheap but usually thrashed a little
Good car for those who are graduating from a slower or more normal car to their first 'real' car
>>14904415
>1G is shit, 7M is shit, 1JZ is good
Didn't they only sell the 1J in Japan?
Also, how moddable is the 7M Turbo?
Why is there so much hate for drifting on /o/?
I just started learning how to do it, and it's loads of fun. My car is set up for grip driving so it's a little snappy at times, and I'm pretty bad, but I'm really enjoying it.

>hate for drifting
stance =/= drifting
We love Initial D and Super Eurobeat, how can we hate drifting?

Some faggot in a Honda crashed into my father's car last night and just fucked off like a nigger! Does anyone know what model of Honda this would be from? I'm thinking it's a mid to late 90's Civic.
Post a frontal picture with the corner lights. I Know my hondas

I need gummipfledge for my seals.
fast roadsters best roadsters
>>14904260
Z4 M roadies are really cool, but i prefer Z3's.
pic related, my slow but fast looking roadster.
>>14904287
Hard top too, nice. Really want to pick up a little Z3 for DD duty. Figure that plus the Z4M is a perfect combo. Gotta love summer, bike season and riding around with the top down without heated seats and heater running full blast. Don't get any better.
Hey /o/, I need some serious advice on towing an airplane. Yes, I'm serious. I just bought a small jet trainer that's going to be my next project. The good news is that the wings are already off and it's ready to be loaded onto a trailer. The bad news is I don't have a trailer long enough to load it on.
The plane weighs about 4000lbs without the wings, and about 20 feet of the plane just touches the ground as shown in pic related. But all I have is a 18 feet car towing trailer. Another problem is that I'm not sure if I should risk my SUV towing...

Bread in cockpit or gtfo.
Put it on the trailer and tow it yourself you'll be fine
>>14904141
Do you mind me asking how much this aircraft cost?
What model is it as well?
Very cool if true btw.
will your son be /o/?
Don't want kids
What son?
>>14904106
Your wife's son since you obviously have one if you needed OP to clarify
What's the comfiest car you can get on a reasonable budget? Not looking for anything but the interior being comfy and nice
/comfy/ car general
>>14903904
80s corolla
Old luxury cars from the 80s and 90s. Q45 and LS400 are nice
I'd say an American landyacht (Caprice, Impala, Crown Vic, Grand Marquis, Town Car, etc.) These are RWD v8 cars and they usually have a bench seat upfront with a column shifter, leaving plenty of leg room.
Why does ever civic vibrate like an angry twat?
5spd or auto
You can look at their mufflers in traffic and they shake like hell.
My 95 and 96 hatches virbrated and both were stock and in great shape.
The awd wagon I'm sitting in is vibrating wildly right now.
Any civic I've riden in vibrates at idle or driving. More so in automatics.
What gives?
>>14903849
vtec
maybe the fact that the motor mounts are probably shot to fuck
>>14903892
Ridden in one with new factory mounts. Still vibrates.

No
Is (western) Europe the shittiest and most expensive place in the world to be a car enthusiast?
Gas prices, taxes and extra taxes are ridiculous here in the Netherlands. You Americans can get a gorgeous car with a V8 and maintain it easily... How do other Eurofags cope with this shit, cause every time I'm looking to buy a car, I get depressed.
>>14903419
Ja. Nederland is een kutland. De VS is een beter land in elk mogelijk opzicht.
>>14903419
how much is gas in Netherlands?
Immigrate to US then you ameriburger loving bigot
>Fiat Chrysler recalling over a million cars because some people were too stupid to figure out how the fucking gear shifter works
http://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/fiat-chrysler-recalling-more-1-1-million-vehicles-n560706?cid=sm_tw
can't make this shit up
Remember when Toyota recalled millions of cars for "mysteriously accelerating" when it turns out it was retards who floored it instead of hitting the brake, or people who didn't take care of their cars and got their carpet covers jammed in the pedal?
A majority of American drivers should have their licensed revoked.
It's just like that one time when Toyota got into a class action lawsuit and had their reputation considerably damaged because a bunch of morons confused the gas and brake pedals.
Remember when GM had to recall 20 million for supposedly "faulty" ignition locks, and "suddenly" turning off, when it turn that retards have attached useless shit to the keyfob?
You better watch your mouth KID.
Do you even know what kind of car this is?
Its a VOLKSWAGON GOLF GTI! Not a shitty KIA.
Get your faggot face outta my sight.

Looks like a ford key barrel to me
