Its 1977 and you're a bum fresh out of high school. Your dad decided to send you to Germany for a year so you would be away from your dimwitted alcoholic friends who stoplight race their parents' Buicks and Fords and wave their penises at high school football games. Your dad tells you you can have any car you want as long as its sold in Germany, he somehow believes that since most cars in Germany are 4 cylinder that they'll be underpowered shitboxes and not V8 beasts like the jocks at school had. He'll even pay all the expenses for the car. What do you pick?
>>
Why don't you just ask for recommendations for a 70s German car which is what you're hinting at instead of making a shitty super specific scenario?

I'd opt for a used Triumph TR5 convertible. I'd tell sweet dad that it's an underpowered inline-4 and I wouldn't be lying.

Does it have to be a 4 cylinder German car?

>>15073568

So September 1977?

I'd get a 1978 model year Porsche 911 Turbo with 3.3l flat six and intercooler. It's Germany's fastest production car

It swings it's back end around when the car hits boost mid corner, you go from making barely over 100bhp to well over 250bhp once you hit 4000 rpm

Excellent, the v6 version had already come out by then.
>>
>>15076114
Depends where you live. I live in the sticks, surrounded by fields, trees, and country roads. I would love a strat replica with an ecoboost V6 to bomb around every damn day.
A more traditional DD in the city? No, you have a point. Not everyone has that tho

My dad was sent to germany in the 80s while in the army and that's the car he bought.

(yes it's an prv engine, the busso does not have a 90ยบ bank angle. Rules allowed it because alfa did use the engine at one point)

Maybe your problem with it is due to the delorean using it, but it still was the best bit in that car other than the design.

Hope you enjoy pushing it places.

Piss off

That looks much better than the pictures I've seen of it before. The lines aren't nearly as ancient-looking there.
