I unironically like ricers. I think its neat to see how people try and make an uncool car look cool.
I like big spoilers and fat body kits. I wish it never went out of style.
I think "ricer" being used as some kind of poor attempt at an insult is dumb beyond belief. I'm with you on that one OP, I love big wings, the fat body kits and just general flashy look.
But other people be like "WOW LOOK AT HIM ENJOYING HIS CAR HOW HE WANTS TO ENJOY IT. FAGGOT."

I like rice. I kinda wish it never went out of style too. It's so much better than stance in that the cars are still fucking usable.
>>17047030
sometimes i just wanna go full retard and get some neon underlights and stickerbomb random body panels because it's already rice with the bodykit.
I have recently moved to the other side of the country (California to Maine).
I drove a 2010 Honda Fit all through college, but now I can afford to buy a new car.
I feel very alone because everyone I have ever known is now very far away.
What is the most comfortable car one can have for under ten grand?
I've been looking at these.

Lincoln town car, mercury grand marquis
Yo, another Maine bro.
Careful. Lots of those probably have a massive amount of rust under them. We're pretty much fucked here. I'd suggest looking for stuff relatively newer in this state. Older cars have a tendency to be held together by bondo.
If you know what you're doing and can do your own work on your car and afford occasional parts, get the Saab (cuz you won't find a mechanic lol).
If you can do a little bit of work, get a Lincoln Town Car.
If you don't really feel like doing much work on your car, get the Lexus LS.
You're in maine so you might want to look into getting a good FWD or AWD car, but snow tires should be good enough.
Hey /o/, I've recently come into money and am choosing between either a C7 Z06 or a Nissan GT-R as a weekend driver/track day car. What are you guys' thoughts on how these cars compare?
>>17046587
Get a Viper instead

I want a Miata and I found this one on Craigs list in my area, problem is it is modified so much and I feel like I might look like a jack ass driving it.
What are your thoughts /o/?
Craigs list description: Not really looking to sell explains my price. I'm Manley looking for cash. Or trade for a is300 preferably 5 speed. s13 coupe, coupe shell with cash on top. Preferably s13 coupe only. Depends on hatches. And maybe s14s. I've had this car for about 6 months. I bought it from a buddy in town who also bought it from abuddys mom in town. The car came from Colorado about 2 years ago. It has not once broken down once on me.
NO HARDTOP. IT IS NOT MINE.

There is some minor flaws with the car. I won't lie about it as I don't car if I keep it or not. It will need one cv boot. Power steering has a very small leak. Has a crack in the windshield. The check is on for o2 prolly because the 2nd one isn't plugged in. I've changed the oil in this with amsoil every time. This thing won't die on me nor you. Motor was rebuilt in Colorado. I don't have the papers but you can come drive it. It's the healthiest I've ever driven. It says 211k on it but it had a ricer tach on it and I couldn't do it son Went and bought oem one. Any questions just give me a text. 5500 or those trades I mentioned
go for it if the guy seems to have done "modified" the car right and not just half assed everything like most miata owners.
keep in mind most people who modify and stance miatas are the same kind of people that the haggard garage teenagers are. Complete halfass modifications, dangerous shit etc.
>>17046442
I am more worried about getting tons of shit for the body kit, as in I might not be a good enough driver to pass having that kind of shit on my car.
>>17046450
just take it off them, geez.
can even ask the owner if he'll lower the price if he keeps his ricer shit replica kit.
Why do cars not have a blinker to indicate that you want to go straightwards? This would make it a lot less confusing at intersections where you can go multiple different ways from one lane.
>>17046378
>>17046378
Does your dumb ass also need one pointing backwards?
>>17046378
because its called just not using either blinker, besides no one would use it anyway, no one uses their turn signals to begin with.
If /pol/ can meme a man into office then /o/ can meme a car into legal import status!

/o/ does not have enough magic for that.
It'll be legal eventually, curse Mercedes while you wait.
>>17046324
not gonna happen with a corporate retard in office. The entire reason for the 25 year import ban was to protect profits. This is a man stripping people of protections while trying to protect profits.
/pol/ has screwed us all.
Defend this.

They also came in AWD, but yeah most of the 3000GT/Stealths outside of the RT and VR4 trim I think were FWD bloated shitboxes.
Why are rebaged Toyotas a luxury brand in America?
No one here in Europe considers Toyotas luxury.

Americans are badgewhores. All the japs had to do was slap another badge on their cars and market them as luxury. Lmao
>>17045998
>Americans are badgewhores
But then so are Europeans? they would actively avoid superior cars (like Lexus) if it didn't have an Audi or BMW badge. Maybe Americans being badge whores is a good thing (for euro manufacturers) because i don't know about Europe but in America you are raped with repair/maintenance bills so its better to just lease and dump before warranty is up. Lexus does not rip you off and you can keep your car for life with great luxury with the cost of ownership of a normal car and the sooner Americans realize that i see no reason Lexus wouldn't control the entire US Market but thanks to them being Badge-whores that means Beamuh, Audi, and Benz can exploit morons who believe excessively expensive parts = better parts.
just got my first new car /o/
incoming blog post
tl;dr hyundai seems to have done well with this car
i'm prepared to be roasted but eh, thought i'd share. don't see anytalk of the elantra sport on here, but it seems pretty well received by most auto journalists.
my initial impressions:
>nicely bolstered seats, comfy full leather interior
>good driving dynamics: mostly flat through cornering, good feedback through the steering wheel, haven't driven that hard yet to test understeer, not sure if i can be a judge of the independent rear suspension yet
>nice exhaust note that's not pumped through the cabin(kind of needs to be stated given recent trends..) has some nice snap crackle and pop, decent burble, and you can hear some nice induction noises from the turbo
>absolutely easy as fuck shifter and clutch
>progressive, predictable braking
>torque picks up and puts you back in your seat ~3k rpm, trails off after 5k-ish rpm (haven't tested much higher because its brand new), plenty of highway passing power
>android auto is very straightforward and works well
>lots more tech that i'm still getting used to

What else would I spend my money on?
Any roadkill fans here? What are your favourite episodes/moments on the show?
>2nd stubby Bob episode was pure kino and I keked hard when they got the full wheelie and won the bet
Huge fan
Best episode is the general's build episode 23
Thrash battle van vs wagon is funny
Mazdarati episode is great as well
Best car is the muscle truck or the rotsun
>>17045912
>Tfw they sawsall into the fenders of the muscle truck
I'm not always a fan of them doing a lot of racing/dragstrip runs in their episodes. One of the best episodes is when they fix the 50's GMC truck that was sitting in the scrapyard for 30 years
I was desu.
Till they decided to become jews and go to PPV.
9 out of their 10 last videos were teasers like "IF YOU PAY 30$ MONTHLY YOU CAN WATCH THIS!".
