im looking at buying an 01 prelude and want some opinions
>inb4 99 is better

99 is better
Honestly 99 is a better car though.
>>14743466
The leather interior is so much nicer than the suade
Looks pretty smart, nice interior and actually drives pretty well.
>trusting Peugeot build quality.
I'd buy that Peugeot if it wasn't that ugly
Literally any alfa
Fiat 500
Love the utilitarian but weirdly fashionable design. It even comes in a convertible. Plus its cheap.
But its a Fiat, why can't they make reliable small streetcars when Mazda, Toyota, and Honda can?
>implying this isn't the best supercar of all time
>pure naturally aspirated V12
>no bullshit "safety" "features"
>no pigfat
>no gizmos that drive the car for you
>>14742156
mr bean even drove them
>>14742156
I was disappointed when the12c only had two seats
at lest it got some weird suspension system to make it more distinct
>>14742156
Well, no one's implied anything.
An alternative, better way to start off a thread like this would've been your run-of-the-mill "Prove me wrong, /o/."
But yes, it is truly the best super car ever made.

Quick Summary: Volvo or Henry J, the '55 might come later today but 1st we need to get shooting out of the way.

"Just start calling me Jamie and we're good." you tell her, no where near what she was expecting you're sure
Almost immediately she cracks up.
"Pfffthahaha! That's what you seriously want? Whatever, like I said I'm fine with that." she rolls her eyes "Can I shoot that one Jamie? You can use the snub for a while."
Man, this is going to take some getting used to, getting called Jamie that is, the gun to a lesser extent.
Dunno how Martin feels about her using it but you don't mind, besides you want to experience the other gun so you don't mind trading. The targetless shooting burns through what ammo you both had left in no what feels like maybe a couple minutes. Safe to say Erika prefers the Ruger over the S&W, maybe she would've beat you if the guns were swapped, too late for that.
It's a relief to finally get those ear plugs out, do believe it's time to buy your own firearm for some this kind of fun. You assume you're going to have to clean up the bottle genocide down there, hopefully all the shells are fi-
"We'll clean all this shit up later, give Martin his gun." she says laying it on the table "I'll go get a phone book and start calling yards around here to see if I can find those parts."
"Sounds good to me." yeah, fuck cleaning all this up
You help get her records and player into her car, before you can make it into the Volvo she's kicking up dirt on the poor thing and pulling a 180. She might like the Saab and the BMW but you get the feeling the likes that big "H/O 455" even more.
She speeds off down the driveway, leaving you in the dust as you get in your paltry 85hp machine...you need to get back in a V8.

At the suggestion of making a placeholder thread I decided to go a long with it. I'll finish when I get up in the morning.

Bumping with /b/ cringe
/o/ I know nothing about cars and have only started taking driving lessons. I do have an interest in cars and some motorsports.
Is /o/ the worst place possible for me to lurk and try learn something? Would you recommend I go somewhere else?
I'm already feeling like rwd is simply best and a twingo wouldn't be a bad purchase. What do I do?

Some old ass jaguar would be a great car for you. Cheap but still luxurious, roaring v12, stunishing looks, great to get some pussies.

Fucking speed bumps man

impolite sega
What really pisses me off is when there's a set speed limit like 50km/h and then they put sharp speed bumps that force you below 20. If you want me to do 50km/h, put some soft little speed bumps that become an issue when I'm traveling over 50km/h.
I can understand if it's a complex and the speed limit is actually 20, but having them in 50 zones makes the speed limit fucking pointless.
Gonna do this hood wrap on my MX-5 - thoughts?
>>14786644
It might not get an mx5 vandalised any quicker than normal
>>14786644
you should get printed on a shirt. it will probably get your ass more action of the penetration variety.

You are given this car; for free, on the condition that you can never sell it, but can otherwise do whatever you want with it.
What do?
>>14788120
trade it
let it rust in my yard with "Not For Sale, blame OP" on it in high-vis marking paint.
if you swap every part, is it still the same car?

Note how the superior Audi accelerates quickly and safely while the amerifat pigiron mustang goes out of control with the slightest touch of the gas pedal.

Muh hurritage
i see these on ricers alot, and they can actually look good, but ricers of course have to go fucking insane with it. but where did they come from? i mean, everything that ricers do, came from something normal, like extreme camber came from normal negative camber for racing. was the exhaust thing originally for noise reduction or something?
>>14781924
Its called bozoko style. It has always looked retarded and only weebs like it
>>14782017
bozoko is a place
bosozoku is an awful jap trend
>>14781924
Supposedly on real drag cars that make 2000+ hp, having upward turned exhaust actually provides a pretty large amount of down-force. I've heard 500 lbs quoted but I'd have to see the car on scales or something to prove it. I guess there is a regulation on the angle that they can be tilted backward too due to the added thrust the exhaust would provide.
On a typical shitbox though? What >>14782017 said.

How do we improve the MX-5?
>>14777450
Make it lighter, give it more power. Same formula for making every car better.
Add pushrods.
Fix up the front fascia (notably the headlights should be the shape of my shitty concept)
Fixed coupe in the style of the RF
Optional, reasonably priced turbo (could bundle it with the aforementioned RF for 5-7k extra total)
There's not really a lot to be done with the car, that's why it's been a massive success.
