>>14223831
No, it's not.
People who lease instead of buy, explain your reasoning please.
>>14223802
They're literally cucks, pure and simple.
i don't deal with new cars but i can still tell you most peoples reasoning.. if you think of cars as just a monthly cost appliance rather than something to own then leasing is an easy way to cycle through new cars pretty often at whatever monthly cost. they don't need or want to own the car, they just pay to use new ones.
>>14223802
I don't lease, but I understand the rationale behind it. If you're the type of person who wants a new car all the time, it's worth it to lease than to buy and sell because you're saving money on depreciation.
If you're the type of person to keep cars longer than 3 years, then leasing will never work for you.

If there's one problem with FWD, it's this. Fucking tiny ass engine compartments and everything being tucked away into some god fucking forsaken corner that you can't possibly reach without removing the whole fucking engine or taking apart half of the damn car.
Old Saab is chill though, Saabs can stay.
Why can't all cars be either RWD or have engines like older Saabs had, the engine was facing the right direction in those things.
because its more space efficient
>>14223761
THen why not make the cars rear engined, like the MR2 or that new Twingo?
FWD is by design more economical, gives you more legspace for the rear seats and deeper bootspace, aswell as being generally better in winter-conditions due to more weight on the powered wheels
Still, I prefer RWD to FWD as a DD due to better tight-turning capability and simplicity

You're taking it to an incompetent shop. Fix it yourself Tony.
>>14223735
The job is slightly too advanced for me.
Don't you just love captive rotors?
Low quailty replacement bearing?
Are Geo Prizms any good?

Let's talk about Mclarens for a change.
There's a new model coming this year, with stupidly cheap price - just 180k for base model.
Which means it will be around 130k after a couple of years, correct?
>>14223528
They're boring. Absolutely no flare.
The 500 series literally could not be any uglier.
That's probably Mclaren's strategy, get rich buyers to step up to the much less abominable looking 600 series.
>>14223544
No flare? What do you mean?
>>14223551
I don't know, I really dig the new look.
The 600 series is way above someones paygrade who is looking at 500 series though.

Yep. Over the last two years Toyota's designers have gone full retard.
So in my area the minimum wage increased, so jiffy lube bumped the price of an oil change to 41.99. So my current idea is I create an ad offering to change oil and oil filters and a less exorbitant rate. Meet them at an auto shop, drain the oil, swap the filter, fill the oil with the pan back on, turn the car on, check to make sure it's sealed with oil pressure, turn the car off, check the oil. I can check washer fluid, brake fluid, steering fluid and their tranny fluid while it's running. But I don't have a shop. Best two bets are the little wheel ramps and changing...

shit, shouldn't of mentioned the JL. Let's say it's a place like that a quickie lube place.
Sounds illegal. Maybe if you had your own driveway and garage.
>>14223378
dafuq, why? I'm making sure I dispose of the oil properly. I mean i can make them drive the car back to my apt, and do it there, people work on their cars all the time here. Or take it to my parentals house which is nearby but why? The parking lot is just as good mang, I'm catching all the oil. but yeah I don't wanna get sued or some shit.
>> Get's sent to rape prison for doing an oil change
Thoughts?

Can people Tell that I Ride, or is there something I need to Tell my Integrated Development Environment?
Regardless, it's a generic crossover aimed at people who aren't me, so meh.
That's some STARRION-tier engrish product name.
reliable, parts that don't cost a fortune, at least moderately powerful/fun/interesting and sub 3000€

Hi /o/
Why havent you bought a Prius yet?
>0-60 In Just 10 Seconds
>A Whopping 98 Horsepower
>A Crazy Top Speed of 115mph

The Viper may as well just give up. This is real performance.

Who makes those really distinctive black sedans you see in Chinese cartoons?
Crysler of course
That grille specifically says benz, but could be something else like a toyota crown
as you can see, it's a Mazda Twingo
