Interested in getting a Volvo 240 - the last year of their production - 1993. What do you think about this car?
Not commuting anymore. Just need to get to the school bus stop and grocery store.
Bump, there's one for sale in my area, wanted to know the same thing. Fun/easy to work on? Easy to mod? Etc...
>>14136669
I've not heard too many bad things. I'm sure the Volvo guys will chime in
Almost 2016. Post dashboards. Show us your current mileage before the year ends.
Took yesterday
I put almost 10k miles on it this year
It's not far off from this.

>>14148409
These things are the ubiquotous beat-to-shit raceboi car.
I want one so badly, but are they are either fwd, BADLY damaged exterior, a bajillion mods or simply cant start.
Why live.
What car has the most rear leg space these days?

Chinese marketed versions of luxobarges. Merc, BMW, doesn't matter.

When I lived in Washington I used to see a cop who had pulled people over in a very unassuming F 150 like pic related
>>14146424
I don't understand the problem? It's, like, too unmarked? I mean the point of unmarked cars is so that people can't figure out they're cops. What's the problem in improving what they're designed to do anyways?
Post your first car's commercial...

I have the 84 model though. This commercial kinda makes me want to get rid of it.

It's glorious.
What's your opinion of the Jeep Renegade? Do you think it can be off-road viable like the small 4x4s before it? Ex. Sidekick/tracker, samurai etc.
>>14145870
Yes, it is off road viable. The real issue with it is that it's way too expensive.
Why would anyone buy a Del Sol over a Miata?
so they dont own a miata
>>14144495
the miata is mad gay
>>14144528
>>14144519
And the del sol isn't ?
In a miata you get rwd,50/50, pop up
In my area miata are either same price or cheaper than del sols

Just started reading up on the rotaries (just started getting into cars in general I guess)
They're pretty interesting, but one thing I haven't found answered is the lack of torque in a rotary engine. Apparently any semblance of torque and (to a lesser extent) power is towards the upper RPM range.
Why?
I was reading about it in context of the RX-7 FD so I may have misinterpreted it and it may be purely because of the FD's sequential turbo setup, but it seemed to imply that it was a trait inherent in all Wankel rotaries.
Why is that?
>>14143558
Because they're spinny rather than pushy
>tfw want to buy old RX7 just because rotaries are cool
TELL ME NOT TO

Cheap sports car / sporty coupes for under $5000?
Any type R
>>14143174
No one else on /o/ would pick it, but for 5K, a CLK 430
>>14143222
If I could find a clean one, a C230/C320 sports coupe would also be on the list
