I have seen a couple of these in AZ, I kind of like them. Did some research and found their pretty practical, the sport edition has 250HP out of a 2.5l 5 cylinder. Does /o/ not talk about them because their FWD?
Buy a Focus.

It's not a Ford.
This is a Ford financed board.

That poor Toyota.
>>13945706
Im going to be driving this car 120+ miles everyday, id rather get new tires with a Warranty on them.
When did you realize that these two represent everything that's wrong with modern car culture?

haggard garage is worse

nah m8 their pretty boss
moog was an ass early "seasons" though

I haven't bothered to check them out, all I know is they're a bunch of idiot ricers
How realistically possible is it to keep a car forever?
>>13945646
It's possible,just don't sell it.
>>13945646
No machine is 100% efficient and no material is immune to damage
You won't live forever. So it's not
Rest in peace alfredo's BRZ
He couldn't brake in time bc some faggot got in an accident ahead of him. He's fine though. Love. Its what makes a subaru, catch on fire. AND NOT ONLY CATCH ON FIRE BUT FUCKING EXPLODE.
>He couldn't brake in time bc some faggot got in an accident ahead of him
So he was tailgating and his crash is 100% his fault
>>13945641
I knew there would be some salty nigger. He was on an interstate. Theres reaction time, and the speed that hes going at to break to 0.
>have you even driven a car before?
>>13945658
Fucktards like you always make me laugh.
Just completely incapable of understanding the concept of safe following distance.
i'm thinking of making an electric supercar that uses a HTS materials-based drive-train. stuff like HTS magnets for braking, accelerating, and so forth.
i even thought about using a fluid that changes viscosity when a voltage is applied to it, and build a suspension system around it so that you can stiffen and loosen your vehicle using simple voltage adjustments rather than tooling the actual coils or shocks.
the HTS magnets would be cooled by liquid nitrogen, which would then be cooled through magnetic refrigeration. all of this is sort of meant to be a...

>high level of efficiency
>cooled by liquid nitrogen
:3
oh yeah i forgot to mention that maybe nitrogen as a gear lubricant is plausible due to its chemical inertness, physical volatility and low viscosity, but i haven't really worked out how gears in cryogenic conditions would handle the shock. i mean we heat treat them but can the reverse be done? to treat alloys so that they are insulated enough to avoid shock induced heat transfer?
>>13945477
the liquid nitrogen cools the HTS which means a smaller motor is needed. less weight less materials, ergo it's more efficient, even if it does use liquid nitrogen which requires more power to keep cold. It's easier to cope with using more power but having more materials is a fixed expense you can't mitigate, therefore it deserves more attention.
Can a base 6th gen civic compete?
In what?
8th gen Civic is god Civic.
head and transmission swap then maybe
I'm looking at buying a 2010 Toyota Yaris with 45k on the odometer for 7 thousand. I've taken it to my mechanic to get checked out, and it looks good. Insuring it will be pretty cheap too. Anything I'm missing?

>Yaris
Kind of faggy little cars, but fairly reliable. The RS had transmission issues with both the auto and the manual, so be wary of that. Also, the exhaust system is prone to rotting out if you live in a snowy area.
Other than that, fairly good as a basic DD. The non-RS models are slow and boring as fuck, keep that in mind. Like, to the point that it will annoy you.
>>13945319
Why do you want that vehicle?
Do you think an auto enthusiast board would have extensive knowledge of the 'Toyota Yaris'?
What does Yaris mean?
Do you have children, and/or a vagina?
Dearest br/o/s
Do i dare to buy a 97 2.5 td with the vm motori engine, 242 transfer case that had its headgasket and tops renovated some 3000 km ago?
It seems like a very decent, fairly economic suv. I just like to commute in comfort, handle snow and occasionally do a bit of lightweight offroading.

lol I'm mastrbating

Ok ok, they were replaced. Fuck my linguistic skills.

And you will never get all of it out.
