Everyone loves the third gen
People go to the 5th gen for its styling
But 4th Gen is ignored
>USA nationwide prices are below $2/gal on average (€0.4835/liter).
WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING? These prices can't last, can they? I know people who are buying huge gas inefficient SUVs to drive themselves crazy distances to work because "gas is cheap now".
A lot of things are happening. Gas prices are just one of many indicators.
thanks obama!

Must suck ass to live anywhere else
Convince me not to buy this thing

it's pretty ugly and it's windows are outrageously hard to see out of
Why not buy a wooden coffin and nail yourself in it.
You'd have much better visibility and you'd get to your destination faster with the same experience.
it's ugly
buy a mustang gt
Does anyone else think that Honda went the wrong way with the NSX?
Not with muh v8, muh stick shift, muh RWD but what irritates me is that it's kinda pigfat.
The entire point of the NSX is suppose to be an experimental car showing off the latest tech from Honda.
In this case they showed off their hybrid capabilities which is fine, but I wish they would have showed off their lightweight technology like Ford did with the new GT and the older gen NSX. And they did invest in a new casting process.

Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
It's too ugly and too heavy.
honda doesnt have any lightweight manufacturing. they havent stolen it from the US or Europe yet.
>>14143567
Is the US really ahead of Japan in terms of weight? I find that hard to believe when we have so many sports cars over 4000 pounds.
OK gents, what truck would you choose if you have 3 kids and a girlfriend, and are towing 4 go-karts long distance? Fuel economy > excessive towing capacity. Nothing heavier than the tools/tires/karts will be on the trailer.
>pic semi-related since that is what I'm leaning towards.
Suggestions? What do you drive to haul vehicles with cost in mind?
Tacoma crew or tundra is your best bet
That's a tough one, I have a extended cab Taco (2004, last year for the early body style), I want a quad cab 72" bed truck, but there's something I don't like about most of the options, the new Taco is too big for what it is especially in the front, the Raptor doesn't come with a 72" bed, the Colorado is hideous, nothing really appeals to me enough to move away from what I have now. Your main consideration if you don't want a fullsize is finding a quad cab midsize with a real bed, there aren't a ton of them.

Is that stage 4 cancer on the front?
Anyone ever had a DUI?
My friend just had his SECOND offense in Denver. Going to pick him up from jail in a few hours (been getting processed for like 20 hours).
How fucked is he? Seems like he could do time + a year with no license... maybe get some work permit. I can't imagine the insurance rates?!
What's the deal, /o/, you or a friend/family had DUIs?
Nobody in my family but a guy I work with has had 5 DUIs and did a year in county after the last one. My suggestion is to not drink and drive.
>>14142703
Hope you take your friend for a nice drive out into the middle of nowhere and give him a bullet.
>>14142719
After 3 I think it is a felony.
>>14142722
Yeah, I'm pretty pissed. The police pulled him over going the wrong way down a street, he blew 2.5x times the legal limit. His dad won't even pick him up from jail that's why I'm doing it. His arraignment is tomorrow, going to take him to that. But, he's going to either have a high uber bill or start to walk lots of places.
Haven't done one in a long while. Thought I would share my holiday finds

ITT: Rare cars that you would like to own.
Fisker Latigo CS, basically a BMW 6 with a fisker bodykit and a little engine tune.

Looks so damn good

I've always wanted a London to Brighton car. Doesn't really matter which kind.
so it's a 6 without the bangle butt? cool
Can you paint steelies?
Is it a good idea?
If you can, do you use spray paint? or canned?
Would white be a bad color?
I just want a little uniqueness to my boring vehicle.

Just get alloys man...
Paint them yellow.

Is the Cobalt SS a fun car?
Test drive it and see if you like it.
>>14144799
I've heard it's a decent car for the price, could be modded easily i heard, lits of aftermarket for it. It can be called the Chevrolet Civic

I'd have to say a communicative chassis. Something incredibly numb like modern crossovers are soulless hunks of junk because you don't feel like you're driving a car in them. They just feel like a videogame.

How illegal is this? Would this be considered police impersonation?
Everything points to spotlights being legal as long as they're not used in public, but I cannot find specific laws in Missouri stating it's illegal for use in public.
>>14143157
>How illegal is this?
Not at all.
>Would this be considered police impersonation?
No, you're just salty.
you got fuckin rekt op.

move on with your life.

Any ideas on the specifics? isn't it illegal on the highway?
What would win in a race
2015 Subaru STi
or
2002 Camaro SS
Me and my friend are debating and I'll list out some specs as food for thought.
Camaro: V8, RWD, 320-325 HP 350 Ft-lbs of torque, 3400lbs ish
STi: 4 cylinder, AWD, 305 HP, 290 ft-lbs of torque and right around 3400 lbs too
Out of a dig and roll race, what would win?
>>14142871
OP here, forgot one key component
>Muh mighty LS1
>>14142871
Roll the SS would walk away no problem. Dig would be a drivers race.
>>14142871
Was the gearbox on those Camaros any good?
Anyway, seems like one of those things where STI for the first 1/8mi and then Catfish ftw. Plus that aero, they researched it at the aquarium.
why did they kill it?
Judging by the styling, it was a mercy killing.
>>14141367
Old Nissan snuck out of it's cage and tried to make something good again, then Renault caught him and shoved it back in there. Made him watch as they drew up the new Maxima as punishment.
