Why shouldnt I buy this 1985 Merkur XR4Ti for $3850?
"Up for sale is a clean low mileage 1985 Merkur XR4Ti 5 speed. If you're looking at this car you know how rare it is. The car is bone stock with only 84,000 miles other than wheels and Quaif shifter. All hoses and belts are new along with the timing belt set.
Now for the fun stuff, Coming with the car is about 90% of what you need to build a 350 hp motor. Everything is new that could be bought new and the sheet metal needed(passenger side wheel arch and the last OEM rockers). Stinger header, 3 inch chrome...

what the fuck is a manual wastegate?
>29 city mpg & 27 highway mpg
>Runs only on electric engine when driving under 40km/h
>Larger cabin than a civic with better fuel efficiency and shorter body length
>4x4 AWD (gud for Canadian winter)
Why shouldn't I spend $6-8k on one of these and ditch my honda shitvic?

>3800lbs

Just saying. It will be insanely slow and youll ruin your mpg by trying to floor it everywhere to gain any speed
Why do you want an SUV?
In the next couple weeks I will be moving across the country in the US. Trying to get all your stuff across is hugely expensive. It is $2,500 to ship it, and around $2,200 plus gas to rent a Uhaul and drive across.
I currently own a 2002 catfish with a garage full of tools. I was thinking to buy a newish Tundra around $20,000 which would be financed. Purchased a flat bed trailer to tow my camaro and fill the tundra up with my tools and other stuff I want to bring with me. Then when I get settled in use the tundra to buy some new furniture and stuff for a month or two...

Idk how the banking Jews work but sounds like a good plan or you can just sell the slowmarow
>>15435579
I have debated on it, but its hard to let go. Am I just being a faggot by not taking the wise route and selling the catfish and just buying a truck instead?
>>15435608
dude you will miss it and get full regret. bad idea
Anyone over the age of 18 here get tired of shifting sometimes?
Ive had manuél trans my whole life and im older now and just tired of it.
Strongly considering buying a car in auto
I just hear they are super unreliable though.
So who here is mature enough to drive an automatic?
>>15435203
I switched over to automatic and electric drive and it feels good, man.
I fell for the manual for feels meme. Got an automatic Miata and never looked back.
can less powerful FWD cars defeat more powerful RWD cars in a race?
>>15435196
why
depends on the cars and the course
Is the Volvo C30 T5 shit? Need a reliable, comfy, decent looking automatic car for my fiancee. The reliability is the only part I'm worried about since I don't know shit about Volvo other than they were taken over by the Chinese.
those are good card m8. not Chinese.
but make sure you get a good one, test drive it HARD
>>15435131
Considering this one: http://www.cardinalewayvw.com/vehicle-details/2011-volvo-c30-t5-corona-ca-id-14076250
$15k seems fair for 26k miles, though I wonder why it's being sold.

Ok, thanks. Had my car parked outside all week and haven't driven it. It's rained and iced up.
My dad left me his car before he died and I want to use it, but apparently he used to race with it and it has a nitrous and I was wondering how to remove it. Its a talon from '97 but it isn't the picture.
>>15434516
Also I don't know much about cars so if you can give me the basics about it that be cool.
>remove it
Why?
>>15434527
Mostly cause my mom thinks I'm gonna crash it, which is understandable since I'm barley learning to drive stick after getting my license.
Hello /o/ I am having trouble. A tweaker ripped this grille off my car in the night and I want to replace it. The problem is I'm too stupid to know how to find it. So I have three questions:
>1. What is this part called?
>2. Where can I find a seller?
>>2a. Where can I buy one cheaply?
bumping with sweet rare wallpapers
Dealership. Can talk to the Parts Department, maybe send them a photo.
I dont give a fuck about going on anymore.
What is the biggest deathtrap of a car that you can think of?

I don't know why I'd ever want to buy one of these, but I need a reliable daily driver and I want one of these for some strange reason.
>>15433207
Sorry, no can do. I want a '11 Fusion Sport.
Serious question; Does it do ANYTHING better than a comparable midsize sedan?
I can't think of anything.
Also I always wondered why its called a "fusion", like its not a hyrbid so what they fuck are they fusing?

Is the Scion iM a good choice for a reliable, long lasting DD?
Overseas it's the Corolla ZR/Auris for you non Burgers

Yes
Are these spark plugs a meme or are they actually good? They're the E3 Diamond Fire
Why would you buy something else than NGK or Bosch?
they are absolutely fine if you can get them for the price of a normal plug. but how do you gap them?
>>15433096
you dont gap them grandpa pull them out of the box and screw them in
