Just in terms of stock performance naturally aspirated. Which is better- the na or the nb?
Everytime I look at the nb's chassis and wheelbase compared to the na, it never looks quite as balanced proportionally.

> performance
pick 1

Don't do it man.
I regret every minute of buying a miata
>>14036667
this
RWD was not fucking worth it
i hate the convertible
i hate not having space
it doesn't even perform that well
i drove my friend's "Fwd econobox"
it handled way fucking better and had more power to it

The superior drivetrain layout which possesses all the positives and negatives of FWD and RWD
Stop buying into the RWD meme, stop wasting your precious shitposts on FWD hate threads, start buying AWD cars and join the master race.
first post made by this faggot that is not a shitpost
>muh drivetrain loss
some of us haven't been here a week and are sick of "discussing" this shit
What do you goys think about the new sti? Looking for a newish car and my budget is ~30k
Drive it first to see if you like it.
>>14036344
there is no reason to buy any car made after the year 2000
you'd be happier buying a really good old car for $30k
its like it keeps getting heavier
imo its a good car
dont expect great mpg for a 4 banger
So... I heard you like the new Mazda MX-5.
And what about the incoming Fiat 124 Spider; a collaboration between Mazda and FCA group, based on MX-5's platform and partially assembled in Japan?
For USA market it will be sold with 1.4 Turbo Multiair with 160 hp, with auto or manual gear,
i dont like it
the miata looks better and it's not from Fiat. That's all.

The Miata looks like it has Down Syndrome

I've fallen in love with this pretty little thing. Planning to sell my current Peugeot 206 which is 10 years old and get this one since the only place I need to go by car is my workplace which is 80% tedious city driving with a bit on the highroad (which is pretty much always full of traffic) + having to find a parking spot.
Please make me change my mind.
>>14035712
Now that's a happy looking car.
>>14035735
Honestly I prefer cats with no real facial features. I don't really see a full face in the aygo. If anything it reminds me of a cat.
>>14035698
I have an Aygo (2012).

hey guys i bought a miata as a project car a couple months ago for cheap and finally got everything fixed the only problem i have left is that my paint is chipped to hell and back im talking all ovee the front bumper all over the mirrors and some on the side of the car and i thought a cheap and different thing would to use chalkboard paint from lowes or something would that paint work and about how much would it cost in all with the materials and tape and such?
>>14034968
just sticker bomb it
>>14034968
Get it painted the same color as your purse fagget
>>14034968
"i thought a cheap and different thing would to use chalkboard paint"
i love how he says that as if no one paints there car with chalkboard paint
it looks shit
My friend asked me to install his new stereo system in his Supra and gave me money to buy all the parts needed.
Only got the speakers done today, I'll do the amps and sub and wiring tomorrow.
These are the speaker brackets I made, I'm not going to show him the pics until after hes had his car back for a few days (they won't be seen with the door skins on).
Why haven't FWD losers killed themselves
I drive an NA Z31 and just mopped the floor with a prelude
I seriously doubt you mopped the floor with a fucking car. Seems incredibly impractical
>>14034521
If he can pick up a bus and throw it back down and then wade through the buildings toward center of town.
I think he can mop a floor with a car.
>>14034519
>yfw my fwd diesel econobox wipes the floor with your shitty rustbucket
Let that sink in.
How practical is it to make a lightly trail capable car out of a generic econobox?
I want my 8th gen Civic sedan to not pop its tires on rocky trails and clear river washes.
>>14034502
Its not
>>14034502
Sell it and get a ranger
Or if you really need an econobox get a forester and lift it, and throw nice tires on it and there you go.
>>14034502
AWD swap from a CRV. Raise the suspension to clear offroad tires, route the intake to a snorkel.
California, Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon, and Vermont, Rhode Island will ban selling of new gas-powered cars by 2050.

>all shit
Don't care.
Utah a best.
>buying new in the first place
>thinking that there will be anything even remotely attractive to look at with 3 pedals and actually power in 2050
Who cares they can't take away my gas guzzlers if I already own them.
>Vermont
Meh, I'll be grandfathered in.
How about a thread for luxury cars from the Great 48. Lincoln, Cadillac, Imperial, Cord, Packard, Duesenberg, Tesla, and any others I might have missed.
>>14034336
>Duesenberg
Weren't they made by two German brothers who moved to the US?
>>14034385
Not sure. I don't know enough about their history to say.
Anyone have any experience owning a Saab nowadays. I'm thinking of purchasing one, but I don't know about those parts and repair costs
don't
They're a car for the intellectual.
Which sadly means a car for keks that don't do their own car repair.
Since keking is for the intellectual.
Albeit, get one. They're pretty cool. I just wouldn't find it fun to work on.
>>14034230
Be more specific, which saab are you looking at
