Too bad it was in that shitty movie with that shitty actor.
>>17171808
Which one.
>>17171812
Minority Report with Tom Cruise.
It was a decent sci-fi thriller.
Te Lexus 2054 concept was developed just for the movie, and thankfully no actual Lexus products were influenced by it IMO.
How do i replace my blinker fluid, it's getting really low?
>>17171248
>juice a carrot
>open the headlight access up like you're changing the bulb
>pour in carrot juice to cover the bottom with 1/4 inch of juice (this is critical, too much and the blinkers will be too orange)
>next, fill up a spray bottle with acetone and spray half the bottle into each headlight (this cleans the lines so fluid can reach rear blinkers)
>you're done, have a celebratory smoke.
>driving down road
>oil pressure at 25-30 psi
>hit redline in 3rd gear after a stop
>oil pressure down to 10-15 psi during pull
>stays around 5-10 psi when driving normally
ok, what did i break
how much does it cost to maintain/insure luxury sedan, say an audi a4, versus an econbox like a civic or corolla?

What happens if I put a based NA desu sticker on my car?
>Get 6,750 cash off any 2017 Hyundai Sonata
So.. I think I'm a little upside down on my Veloster, and the dealer is clearly trying to clear out stock before the 2018 Sonata refreshes come in.
Is the 2017 Hyundai Sonata a bad car?
A 2017 Sport 2.0 would be much faster than my base Veloster, and have better ride quality, and hold more value. Should I?
>6750 off a sonata
So they're paying you to take their shit car? I'd say do it if you're a big fan of rust, exhaust leaks, and driving the official car of the trashy middle aged woman who hangs out at chain bars
>>17199776
Well,
I had a current-gen Sonata as a rental once. Light as fuck steering but suspension was solid and the technology on board really impresses for the class. Lane departure, automatic cruise with start/stop, etc. Plus I think it looks better than the Camry, and all indications point to the Sonata being more reliable than the Altima and Fusion.
>>17199799
Get the sport
The other engines are fucking pathetic and slow, that's not to say the 2.0t isn't slow, just not as slow as the others. So fucking made it they don't put the v6 in the sonata anymore
I've been thinking about buying this 2016 GTI with lighting package. Is this a good deal? What does /O/ think of GTIs?

>buying an econobox
kill yourself
>>17199478
Well alright then. It drove great and the seats were very comfortable and supportive. Good power, nice stereo and turned like a go cart
>>17199503
For that price or less you could get a used 135i, 335i e92, acura rsx, tsx or tl with a manual, 2010+ mustang gt etc...
>car gets hit

"Car guy" shit you hate, /o/?
>>17199055
>"you know cars, right? can you help me fix mine?"
>"Thanks! i hope you do it for free"
This is more of an universal thing but it still pisses me off.

What are some ways to get rid of cabin drone? I have a muffler, resonator and precat in my headers.
Going from H to X pipe made mine manageable.
>>17198685
>resonator
>muffler
>precats
>still has drone
What RPM are you cruising at?
>>17198740
Oh the thing is i bought a new muffler and i get drone at around 2-3k rpm. Would adding a second resonator help you think?
Why do europeans get so angry when American cars (specifically the V series) are brought up?
Look at any youtube comment section of a video of the ATS/CTS vs anything and you will see this
In this sea of garbage called /o/, why did you make this garbage thread?
>>17198442
>Why do europeans
>that sand nigger in the comments
fucking kek op
Why don't Americans start building better cars if they want someone other than their own stupid asses to appreciate and buy them?
eastern Europe fag reporting.
Looking to buy a used car between 3000-6000 euros, that is reliable.
The Alfa romeo 159 looks great:
>1.9l
>diesel
>sportswagon
>mechanical transmission
>looks stuning
Looks amazing and is not that expensive to repair and maintain (as Alfas' are know for breaking down but I've read that this car is an exception after the 156)
I am open to suggestion for other great car as daily drivers.
>>17198336
>Alfa
>diesel
Dont. Alfa diesel engines are notoriously terrible. Get a petrol powered model.
Alfa
Hahahahaga
>>17198336
I'd suggest a 3 litre diesel Audi A4 as a similar alternative
Why does /o/ make fun of "boomers who know what they got" and in the same breath brag about how they got a good car "at a steal"? Are you just bitter that boomers with nice classic cars are smarter than average and don't allow themselves to be ripped off by bratty 21 year old "car guys"?
>>17197868
Boomers aren't smart, that's why, they are stupid old fucks who live in the past.
>I KNOW WHAT I GOT
overpriced rust bucket, not at all worth what he is asking
>steal
Bought a quality car for a very good price. It's not hard OP.
>>17197868
I bought my camaro for below market value
boomers overvalue rustbuckets with shitty motors or possibly even missing vital components because they think auction prices for a perfect, restored, matching number example is a realistic goal for the heap that's been in their yard for 35 years
>see one of a kind car I really want with just under 100k kms
>its_a_dealer.jpeg
>ad has two close up pics of some dents with rust
>decide it's not too bad and worth fixing
>call up for a test drive
>drive 120-ish km to dealer with a buddy
>drive to exact location but can't find dealer anywhere
>happen to see car sitting in some really tiny shitty lot, not even inside like on the pics
>shitskin dealer comes out, tells me there are 3 dealers on one location
>can already sense this is going to suck
>sure enough, see car has additional rust spots and both wheel well have rust holes
>ask the guy how the car ended up here
>he tells me it belonged to an old lady who wasn't allowed to drive anymore
>have to keep a straight face while hearing this
>dude starts up car, drives it out of the lot revving a couple of times like a retard
>pop the hood, ignore the brightly coloured cheap replacement battery
>get a rag, twist off the oil cap
>get blasted in the face with the fury of a thousand wallmart sharters
>spray is covering all of the engine bay and the bumper, creating a small smoke screen as the oil is burned by the exhaust manifold
>wipe face, move on
>ask buddy to rev a bit while I watch the exhaust
>looks like a fucking pressure washer
>do testdrive anyway because fuck it
>car drives well, shocks are good despite all this
>do a medium corner
>shitty tires already losing grip
I knew the car would be shit but I didn't expect it to be absolute trash. Why is this getting a nice car the most frustrating thing in the world, /o/?
...oh yeah, car buying stories ITT I guess.
>taking off the oil cap while the engine is running
>complain that you get sprayed with oil
What exactly were you expecting?
>>17197766
This was no simple spray, this was a fucking tidal wave.
>>17197782
But why do it in the first place?
I like playing around in my head with the idea; what would you buy? Assuming a large windfall. What would your ideal purchase be?
Hard mode: The caveat is that you only buy one car, not a fleet, and therefore it has to be the perfect all rounder.
>has to be the perfect all rounder
The oilniggers have figured this one out. Comfortable, spacious, powerful, tune friendly, dirt capable, 3.5 tonnes tow weight here.
Fuck fleets.
I would buy a:
>2017 Cadillac Escalade Platinum for road trip
>2017 Cadillac ATS-V for daily use
And a nice house in a decent suburb with a dedicated VR room and a pool.
That's p.much it.
>he posts on /o/
>he isn't a mechanic
working on cars sucks more than commuting in them
>>17197586
>thinks mechanical technician is only /o/ related job
>>17197645
This. You could be a driver
