What do y'all think about this? I feel like it'd be a nice DD.

Overpriced shitbox at best

A mail route car with only 37k miles?

Probably got laid off. UPS and FedEx are putting USPS out of business.
What does /o/ think of the celica? Thinking of getting one as a second car
>>14716051
I don't much care for the lastgen celicas, but i do have to admit the GTS factory rice turns my inner boyracer on a bit.
I'm a fan of the earlier-gen celicas from the early 1990's and before.
Good DD, probably a few bolt-ons for it from TRD. But you could honestly get better bang for your buck out of a Honda if you want a cheap project car.
silly car
>>14716118
Honestly i just want it as a nice dd/winter car to protect and preserve my rwd car
So I've spent all my money on houses and shares, but still want a fun car.
I'm on my P plates for another 3 years, so turbo cars are out of the question, and my budget is max 5k.
What should I buy? Currently considering an E36 6 cyl or a Saab 9-3 V6.
Pic sadly not related.
n/a 180sx or S14 Silvia
>>14716033
Ausfag? Old v8 that gets past power to weight then mod it
>>14716033
America? You have freedoms. Buy an AWD Volkswagen Golf (that version was called Synchro I believe) and put some retarded hoon engine into it. Stick Subaru markings and a retarded-ass bodykit onto the car, also scrawl IMPRESSA on the back of it in white permanent marker. Go to Subi meets and pretend that you are one of them, adamantly refuse that this could be anything but the real deal no matter what they tell you or shout at you.
Nothing beats a family car that can tow a boat and have major muscle power. Nothing like the roar of a V8.
What kind of Commodore do you have?

What is that headunit senpai?
is a 2009 passat cc a good car /o/?
Im a total car retard and about 3 months ago i bought a 2000 accord with money i saved up from my shitty job at a call center and a week ago the tranny died
Anyway my dad said hes gonna get a more modern car so i dont have to deal with cars breaking down and ive been i saw this passat cc which looked pretty cool but is it reliable?
>>14715421
No dude all modern cars explode
First of all, why did you buy a car that is world-renowned for automatic transmission failure? Pretty sure only the ford focus/fiesta is more infamous for this now.
>>14715461
This op modern cars are bound to explode
What should I get as a first project car? Any gems out there that /o/ might enlighten me on?
Also post about your projects.
>>14714972
Something cheap that you won't be sad about not finishing.
>>14714985
This. And don't get a car that NEEDS an engine swap to be decent, so avoid D-series or F-series Honda's.
>>14714985
Anything more specific than that? If I found, say, an NSX that'd need a rebuild after a flood, with the body being all there for $5k, would that be a worth while project car? Or would I be better served picking something a tad more pedestrian for my first project car?
Well I honestly dreaded asking this question because I never usually get positive responses on 4chan regarding anything I want to be informed on as a person new to the scene but sometimes I figured fuck it. I've never really but into cars before about a few months ago, I ogled as many Lambos and Bugattis as much as the next guy but I never had a real appreciation for it, until my I saw some kids in m3s at my local mall in the parking lot drifting at around 3 am, it was like something out of a movie. I got really interested and started to research it and have pretty much...

TL:DR I wanna start dirfting, i get the basics of how to start but I want some more insight.
you want something cheap, good handling, easy to repair, reliable and has a decent aftermarket, and has lots of potential
s-chassis is the go to for those reasons

what /o/-related things are you doing this weekend?
I bought a new daily to keep some miles off my truck when I don't need it. I started off buying a cheap, clean EP3, then my mom decided she was ready for a new vehicle the next day so I found her a 2015 Lexus RX350 F Sport, then realized her CR-V would make a much better daily for me than the Si so I sold that after owning it for 4 days and 200 miles and bought the CR-V.
now I'm just waiting for my girlfriend to get home so I can say goodbye to her and take off on the 15 hour trip home and hopefully...

What's the best car for going to the beach with? I know you can hose out a wrangler, are there any other cars like that? I'm sick of having sand all over everything.
>>14714557
you could just do something interesting and like
strip out any old car and remove the doors.. do some minor water proofing to the underbits of the dash i spose.
>>14714557
Base model rangers also have rubber floors so they can be hosed out.

If you do by it, try to summon me on here when ever you need help with a repair or even for parts. Ive had mine seen late 2008. Also, use the SVX net work forum and register it there. We always like to see how many are still out there and in the road. Pic related is my 92
