Give it to me
>>319928253
Maybe swap with 1.8 niva Engine or try to fit some decent carbs.
Get a fiat 124 spider suspension for handling or cut niva springs for muh stance
Or give it to me

Buy a Mustang, problem solved. You'll keep up with them in the corners and outrun them on the straights.

Here are some of the stereotypes I have noticed.
Buicks- old fucks who cant drive for shit, usually found going at least 10 under.
Honda Civics- Rice boys and poor fucks
Geo Metro- Really poor fucks
BMW's- e46 and later- complete asshats. E30's and 36's usually owned by enthusiasts.
Chrysler 300- Niggers or old people.
Miata- Automatic trans- clueless blonde chick. Manual miatas usually older women or enthusiasts.
Audi Q5 and Q7- Suburban MILFs
BMW X5/X3- Suburban DILFs
Land Rovers- Rich Assholes
Bentleys- Even Richer assholes
80's...

I own a 2015 Cadillac Escalade. What does that say about me?
>BMW's- e46 and later- complete asshats. E30's and 36's usually owned by enthusiasts.
Shit, I own an E32 BMW and ain't a big fan of BMW's, especially once I had the misfortune of owning one.
>Chrysler 300- Niggers or old people.
Also, I'm white and young
Seriously. I love this car. And no comments about needing 91 octane or blown apex seals. I want real reasons. It's a cheap sports car that (imo) looks beautiful. Plus rotary.
I can buy one around here for about 6k (USD) with 70-100k miles on the odo and in pretty good condition. I thought about an old 3 or 5-series since they are super cheap but they're slow(er) and in dodgy condition. If you have any other recommendations for under 6 grand that have the performance and looks of an RX-8 let me know.
>>14030594
>70-100k miles
You know why they're only 6k? Thats when the
>apex seals
start to give and you need an engine rebuild.
>>14030594
I hope you know how to take care of your rotary.
There is a reason they are summer cars only and not daily drivers
>>14030594
because the rx7 is prettier
>he doesnt subscribe to 1320
how can you even call yourself an enthusiast

and you niggas think yous an enthusiasts

Hey guys car noob here. Looking for a car that is around 20,000 USD give or take a few thousand. Gets good gas mileage and is not boring to drive. I have to drive a lot for work and my Nissan Altima is a fairly boring car. Currently looking at a 2015 Volkswagen Golf GTI. Seems to meet everything i'm looking for as far as being good on gas mileage and a peppy car. Appreciate all suggestions.
>>14030470
>Fiesta ST
>>14030500
any benefit of the Fiesta ST compared to the GTI?
>>14030470
>Appreciate all suggestions
What about a smooth af luxo barge with not so great gas mileage
>Acura TL
>Lexus GS350/430/460
>Infiniti G35/37
Nothing like a smooth V6 or V8 to make you feel special
Have you considered the used luxury segment?
Lexus IS350 could be right up your alley.
Is there anything good that comes from FF V6 cars? their weight distro its so fucked up, maybe if they were AWD or RWD they would be better, but as of what it is, i think there is no advantage to having a V6 in FF layout.
>>14030254
cheaper
More passing power.
End of discussion.
>>14030254
More weight on the front wheels means better traction though.
A better question would be why front heavy cars never seem to be specified with bigger tires in the front, to match the weight distribution, but we all know it's because the average driver wants the same tire in every wheel.
Besides, why not a V8?
>le german engineering
>What did you just say asshole?
Mods rule 3
>>14030253
>b-but german cars are reliable
>y-you just have to f-fix it every 5000mi and pay 3x the cost for parts
>w-when will you m-memers get it
The best Fords are British
>>14030200
>Implying
>>14030230
Australia only has the Falcon though
>>14030200
I don't know if EuroFords are really just British; I'm sure I heard somewhere that ford Germany had more of a roll in some of the greats than people really credit them for.. Also the engines are frequently American.
The cars themselves, though? Yeah, fuckin' GOAT.
Let have a g/o/re thread
here some OC from an accident last night
Holy shit rip red Volvo 740 sedan. That's like my favorite car. What happened op?
sucks m8, can I have your front valence?
>>14030137
Its a turbo too, bought it about 6 months ago
coming home from work last night
trying to impress BMW coupe behind me
slam on the pedal, turbo boost to 50 in 35
roads are wet, lose control
start understeering, fuck it up
hit a boulder on the side of the road
Post some gore niggas!
Ford blatantly copies Aston Martin styling, crysler blatantly copies Bentley styling. Makes cheap econo cars focused largely on the domestic market, get destroyed by foreign competitors due to shit quality.
Convince me American brands are different than Chinese car makers
>>14029907
>Ford blatantly copies Aston Martin styling
same designer you dolt
>>14029913
Way to prove his point
>>14029932
