How do you force yourself to not drive like an eco faggot when running the touge?
Whenever I come to a fun stretch of road I'm still in the kind of 'mode' to be super conscious of my fuel economy (fuel is expensive as shit here and my car likes a drink) and end up doing most of the road in 6th.
How do you drive on a fun stretch of road? Revving the piss out of a car hitting the rev limiter over and over probably isn't too healthy for it and all that happens (to me anyway) is the brakes just give up.
good question it happens to me too, so i enter momentum mode

Your mentality is fucking retarded. Lose your car and drive a manual one. If you cared so much about fuel cost you shouldn't be driving.
>>15451460
Nice reading skills retard.
S/o/ we all agree that the worst drivers are those that drive too fucking slowly right?
>>15451350
No, they are the ones who are bad at driving. kys
People who merge and then get up to speed drive me insane.
No tailgating assholes are the worst the worst drivers.
What cars can you put a spoiler on, without looking like a ricer? What cars can come with a spoiler from the manufacturer? Lets keep the cars under $100k. What other bolt on mods fall into this category?
i bet it would look ok ish on a bmw m2
that car just has a little lip spoiler
>>15451272
>What cars can you put a spoiler on, without looking like a ricer?
none
>What cars can come with a spoiler from the manufacturer?
pretty much anything newer than 2007
>>15451280
Looks pretty good.
>>15451282
I've seen some nice ones.
WRX
BRZ
350/370Z
GT Mustang
>under 30k new or used
>AWD or FWD
>manual
>more towards the luxury segment but still having good driving dynamics
>adequate power, around 200hp is fine
>solid gas mileage, 20/30 at least preferrably
Currently looking at the Mazda 6, Lexus IS250, and 3 Series BMW's but I'm not sure about reliability with those. WRX isn't nice enough and I hate the image.
>pic related is essentially everything I want, but a bit too much
Ford Fusion
>>15451140
No manual.
>>15451138
Fully loaded Volkswagen GTI fits the criteria. Reliability is questionable though. You could also look for a last gen A3 with a stick or an a4/s4
It is extremely easy for anyone in this country to have access to a military-grade truck. No civilian needs a 10 ton vehicle capable of burning 20 gallons of fuel before refueling or going over 50 miles per hour.
How many more people have to die before we implement common sense truck regulations?
>>15451107
What the fuck why are they so goddamn cheap? I want one. Gonna be the king at the camping ground.
>>15451148
>>15451107
Holy shit are they really that inexpensive?
I'm sure parts are like a gorillion dollars tho
>>15451148
because they ride like a go cart and pretty much take an enormous amount of space up
I don't want to be rude but America is totally incapable of building a fucking automobile. They're all ugly, blocky. They totally lack finesse, and MUCLE CARS?! what the fuck is that? A poor excuse for the very real fact that Chevrolet has never made a nice vehicle in it's entire existence? Look at an Aston Martin dbs and tell me that British/European cars don't have the market TOTALLY cornered.

Yeah, tell us, what IS a "mucle" car?
FWD suck
Anyone else agree
FF hate general
Huh, only a kid needs power to his rear wheels.
>>15450027
FWD doesn't suck but it sure is more boring than RWD.
what does fwd mean?
Will a black car/blackish car break easily on a hot place like middle east?
yes, black cars are usually shot by the police at a much greater rate than white cars
white cars have jobs and 401k's though and largely refrain from chimping out
i'd get a white car.
>>15449856
Racism jokes arent that funny anymore
>>15449856
>tfw Pepsi has a 401k
>>15449845
Break more often? Wut? Probably not. That sun likes to fuck with paint and interiors on older cars though but I don't think it will make a huge difference whether the car is black or silver.
Get a lighter interior and some dark tint and the windshield sun shade for when it's parked. Try to park in shade and you will be set.
did russia ever produce any good cars. like in terms of REASONABLY PRICED mobiles?
educate me on lada and the rest
>>15449373
Only good russian car is the Lada Niva, and then only to be used on bad roads. Everything else is below shit tier.
Just watch this. https://youtu.be/Ozzlbrh6Tfc
And compare it to anything else built in the late sixties an America or Europe.
>>15449389
And keep in mind that any American or European car would've disintegrated on Russian roads. Sturdiness is more important than features.
tell me about these 01-04 Mustang GTs
is it worth getting one from 05-10 over these considering these are significantly cheaper?
also how do they handle compared to the 05-10 models?
I would imagine the newer stangs drive and handle better than the fox/sn95 ones. I myself prefer the older stangs on looks alone. Have you looked at a Bullit or a Mach 1? While I didn't have a 01-04 GT I owned a '98 Cobra and I was happy with how it handled.
Both of them are shit, get a 2011 5.0 or 3.7.
>>15448697
>2011 5.0
too expensive
and I want v8 sound so no 3.7. i havent checked the price but the v6 is probably too expensive too
my budget is around 15-16k
>you find a picture of your old car that you sold to someone else
>they did this to it
She didn't deserve this fate.
>>15448387
I don't care because If I sold my car It means I upgraded.
is that an adub? poor thing :(
>>15448387
She looks happy...
my dads friend is selling his 2005 jaguar for $3000
should I buy it or will it just break on me every week?
are they known for being unreliable? I need a daily driver
its x type
If by "buy it" you mean take ownership for free, then yes. If you mean pay 3k to your own dad for some pile of shit then no.
>>15446849
>friend's dad
Benchracers so quick to talk shit they can't even read.
>>15446843
>its x type
oops i mean its s type
like pic related
>waiting at red light
>turn head to the left
>see this
wat do
Scream like a little girl, because there's a de-aged ghost.
Stare back for a second, go back to fucking with my phone and crank the sub up
More than you can accord, pal
If I buy a used car of the craigslist and the owner sold it to me KNOWING it had a bad motor...What recourse do I have?
that sure is a cheesy pizza
>>15434233
As is, is as is
AS IS
as in no recourse
Car stereo thread.
Have you upgraded your stereo?
I have a kicker L7 2x12 subwoofer and Focal speakers in my BMW.
No, I'm white.
my stereo is stock. the radio sounds really flat and has no imaging but cd's sound awesome.
