sticky
>>14007848
Ive read the sticky multiple times, and FUCK THE STICKY
STICKY CAN SUCK DEEZ NUTZ
If you want an is300 then get used to auto only fir the most part. It seems like theres very few of them that are manual
Kill yourself you dumb fucking nigger. Not here to fucking spoonfeed you.
>>14007880
Sorry to inform you that im actually white sir
>>14007826
You will not find a is300 manual for 5 or under unless it's ratty as fuck
>>14007826
>>14007874
With that attitude I can only say, get a Civic and shut the fuck up.
Learn to drive first and then go buy something nice to do skids with.
>>14007826
That car is disgusting. You people need to stay off the road with those illegal lights and tints.
>>14007889
I can get an is300 for 5k easy, didnt know it would be more expensive for a manual
get a shitbox for your first car
that way when you get into a wreck or hit something (and you will), it won't be too much of a loss

A car for $5k is a shitbox to me>>14007906
>>14007906

Regardless, sticky you underage shit

Clearly you haven't because you can easily find something that satisfies you there if you're in the US.
>>14007903
They made way more automatics than manuals, manuals isn't considered luxary and Lexus is a luxary brand.
Anyways, not a very impressive car by today's standards it's nice, if not a bit bland to look at the interior is nice if kept maintained, bulletproof 2jz if not a bit underperforming for a heavier than average rwd car
>>14007826
Jeep grand cherokee 91-98 i would say just gotta search
There is a jeep for everyone
>>14007906
>and you will
I never get this, I feel like you guys were just retarded children.
>>14007994
A1 suggestion.
>>14007826
I've always been partial to E36's.
>>14009040
That's a pretty good suggestion, fits OP's description. Just get a cheap ass 318 or 320.
>>14007826
Meh.... No... The IS300 manual is Shit so any mods done to it (turbo) will just ruin your tranny...
Check out amerifag cars...
You can get a Mustang GT with a manual for around your range, or get lucky with a Cobra. And if you just want to get into that stanceflush hellanation Shit Raceland has coilovers for the sn95 and s197 chassis... I think they Got the newer gens too... ( before 2015)
BMW also,
and if you're hellbent on Jap, try the Fairladies, RXs, and or if you're lucky enough the SC300s...
>>14008081
If you need /o/ to hold your hand and pick your first car you probably are retarded.
>>14009454
Not OP, just saying you're giving him the wrong mindset. If he thinks he's going to crash, he will.
>>14008081
If you're getting your first car ever, then you're probably around 18. That's the most likely point in your life that you're going to have a crash.
>>14009896
not all 18 year olds crash. I had an aw11 from 17-20. Only twice did I ever feel like I was actually going to crash and that was because of rain or sleet
>>14007977
wrong
The sticky is fucking garbage
dont get a RWD rocket as your first car, you gonna wrap it around the first pole you stumble upon when you try to durrifto or downshift on the corner
>>14010262
yeah ok fuck off
>>14010183
>>14010485
it is though
for instance
the is300 isnt even listed
its missing a ton of rwd performance cars
which is what people always ask for
>>14010269
Fuck off tripfag you cancerous piece of shit
>>14010262
who downshifts on a corner?
>>14010498
Anything sporty on the sticky is going to be relatively easy to find in good nick (except the WRX, but that's acknowledged) and in the 5 grand or less price range. Clearly the Lexus didn't meet some criteria.
>>14007885
You must be new here
>>14010544
>easy to find
I'm living proof that those sports cars on the sticky for under 5k are impossible
That budget is so low you are in take whatever you can get territory
Also if you have 5k cash get a 10k loan and buy an s2000
>>14011025
Post your local craigslist, I bet /o/ can find a few decent cars even in winter.
Why does it take more then 10 replies for everyone to agree on miata?
