I was specifically implying that the only vehicle you posted that doesn't get a lot of praise on /o/ is the Ranger. This is a "cars you like that other people don't understand" thread. The BNR32 is beloved by 9/10 /o/ posters who like Jap crap. The Volvo is a meme. The Eagle SX4 used to be a meme, it's still generally approved of. The FC has a huge contingent of loyal fans.

These are just so good looking and comfortable cars. I had one, a 1.8 Expression, and i regret selling it. Some day i'm going to buy another Laguna
grandpa has one just like pic related with white wall tires on it with a few dents here and there but no rust
wanna make it a sleeper so bad. even though its already an LT1 lets be honest its still very slow, just really loud
Does this count? My dad had one just like this but dark blue, unfortunately he sold it right after I was born.
I'd love to have another MK1 Scirocco....

>>13940486
and here's the mint interior. I swear this car has no rust anywhere, it's pretty unbelievable considering I'm a canadafag.
If I needed an SUV, I would probably consider an Aztek. Despite how ugly they are, they're at least good at being an SUV, plus they're super cheap because everyone hates them.
>>13937931
I actually quite like the 77-79 Pontiac Phoenix.
Since I was a wee lad.
>>13944643

Seriously though you could get a ute imported there from Australia cheaper than you could get one made or an El camino, something like pic related is maybe 5000 dollarydoos.
>>13954800
5000 dollarydoos would only get a VX in an SV6 trim at best
Bump it up to $11,000 and you might be able to find a manual SS.

Thrashed base model V6 utes are $5k, you'll need to spend more than that for a clean SS.

>>13954800
>he forgot Americas 25 year rule
Also, only V8 models are eligible for import being close to the 2004-2006 Pontiac GTO. V6 models aren't close enough to the American variant to qualify.

I liked the look of the car, but its torsion bar suspension often made it look too tall, and lowering them is out of the question as said torsion bars seize after a few years and you need to replace the entire rear axel etc

power steering packed in
the tracking used to go every few months
lambda sensor was broken
car used to cut out when idle in the cold
as well as choke up when changing gears
mine was a real junker but heaps of fun and it had a massive dent in the offside (right) front wing because the offside door was missing a pin to stop it from swinging out at 90 degrees
the stock speakers are pretty good though
>>13958218
the rear suspension seizes on stock so you need to replace the whole rear suspension with one that hasnt seized but getting hold of them is incredibly expensive since there arent many low milage ones left. Its the same story for the Citroen Saxo too but I hear the VTR and the VTS dont have it
