why do bmws depreciate like a brick but ferraris and lambos seem to hold their value?

Abundance vs. scarcity.

Bravo my friend, couldn't of said it better myself.
I'm looking for a van to use for road trips.
I don't know a thing about vans, so I need some advice.
Does this look like a good deal? https://www.kleynvans.com/truck/detail/237344/citroen-jumper-27c-19d/
Again, I'm planning to make big road trips with the van so it needs to be reliable.
Thank you.
You've got the least reliable common brands of that era there
looks like a good vehicle to rape normalsluts in, go for it
Transit m8
Or go smaller with a T4
Gotta have one with character
Why doesnt ford sell these cars?
I feel like they would sell really well....
>>14058728
Dunno. They'd do decently at best probably, but I've been wrong before.
I'm comparing it to the current SS
They're being nice to GM, which simply cannot compete.
>>14058728
Because apart from the engines the aussie fords are the most unreliable turds i have ever seen.
ANYTHING above a x series is instant trash save for the FG and FGX
I have a 2014 MAzda 3 S Grand Touring and I want to make it sound and look better. As far as sound goes I'm looking at a Magnaflow catback exhaust but I am wondering if a resonator delete will do what I want while saving me $700
punch a hole in your exhaust manifold
instant +4 cylinders in sound
Engine is 2.5L 4-cylinder if that helps

Can anyone tell me what this car is called? I took this at an outdoor classic car show in Florida back in July. I greatly appreciate it. I'll dump the rest of the photos I took if anyone is interested.

Some weird Dodge Stratus, Roush Edition, with a Fiero bodykid.
I think that covers all the memes
>>14057973
It Isnt the real thing for one.

All I want is a house like this. What is this even called? Walk-in garage? Well, shit, I'd settle for a regular attached garage.
I want an attachhed 3 car garage to wrench on my shitboxes, but every garage that big is attached to a massive fucking house which I don't need and is way out of my price range.
Post more pics like this so I can keep dreaming.
Have fun paying for heating and cooling
>>14057907
That's for any big house, obviously.
>>14057894
Just go to a detached garage anon. I made that compromise to save about 100k.
Side note, I had almost bought an old limo shop that had double height doors (4) and a separate paint booth. Had 3 bedrooms and a bath with a nice size living and dining room and kitchen. All for 73000. Needed replumbed but not a deal breaker, but the tuck pointing was a breaker.
Looking for a stylish, fast car that's maybe around 5k. Dad is an ex-dealership fag who thinks any used car but a honda or toyota will be a lemon.
What are some cars that satisfy his needs which are: low maintenance cost, will last me another 5 years, no major part replacement needed in those 5 years, or has atleast cheap parts available for it.
what are some cars that satisfy those needs? I've thought maybe something like an older lexus or infiniti? any other options?
Make your father proud

CLK 430, if you don't mind learning how to do your own maintenance.
Otherwise, all the typical candidates
Thinking about buying a motorcycle. Never had a big bike before. What should I know about motorcycles?

they have two wheels
Theyve only got two wheels.
Realistically how much does it shorten an engine's life to occasionally rev it high and go WOT to accelerate?
My 15-year-old camry has over 260k miles on it and I rev it almost to the red area fairly frequently. Am I gonna blow it up?
>>14057648
Yep first top end compression will let go (valve steam seals) then bottom end compression will etl go (piston rings + gaskits)
>>14057716
why can you never fucking enjoy anything in this life

I CHANGE MY GASKITS EVERY OTHER MONTH

What the fuck? What car is this for?
Junkyard or just nigger rig it
Inb4 scott kilmer posters.
LOL! Holy shit, this really is for a Mercedes.
http://madnessmotors.com/mercedes-headlight-switch
It's genuinely hilarious that shit guy here >>14057369 does the passive aggressive bitch thing (like a bitch does) saying "LEL INb4 SCOTTY POSTERS XDDD"
Anyone who can genuinely justify to themselves that this part is worth $450 is a special class of idiot that no one can help.
Am I a faggot for really liking this thing?

>>14057305
Yea.

why have a well built capable car when you COULD have stuff like

and

Its been said that modern day drifters are what hot rodders were 40 years ago. Its an evolution of the same culture.
How do you feel about it, whether drifting involved crappy drift missiles, kids learning to drift in their first car or professional drifters?
>Its been said that modern day drifters are what hot rodders were 40 years ago. Its an evolution of the same culture.
was this posted on speedhunters? if so, ignore it
>>14057276
Its for talentless cunts that cant rally.
I agree in the sense that both drifters and hot rodders are "all shine, no substance" showoffs. Coincidentally both scenes are/were defined largely through lots of noise and smoking tires.
