Girlfriends co-worker took me and her for a drive in her STI. Never had so much fun in a car, and now I can't even get in my own car without a feeling of regret (Genesis Coupe 2.0T Automatic). It will be paid off next month, and I'm itching to get something as fast, or faster than one. The thing is, I put $1k down on a Tesla 3, and know how god-speed those electric cars are. Should I just wait for the Tesla, or buy something else? If so, what would be faster/better than an STI? Focus RS? The Elantra Sport was pretty fun too, and LAP3 is promising an additional 80HP from a tune, but it might be too heavy.

What is this /o? I live on a military installation and have never seen this type of vehicle before and it was just casually parked outside an office building. I didn't get out and take detailed pics in fear of some armored soldier getting out and waving a weapon at me.

What is your opinion on the 1. Gen TT Quattro?

I'm looking for something sporty for European standards for preferably around 5k€ and I saw a decent amount of those with good mileage. Obviously they're fairly odd looking but in my opinion by lowering the car a bit and putting on some sweet wheels it looks real good.

Also I understand that a Miata ist most definetly way more fun to drive but I'd really like more HP because I do lots of Autobahn driving and it would be my daily.

It is actually quite famous for being a deathmachine due to lift off oversteer.

>just get an e30 or e46.
e30s are ridiculously expensive in Germany and the e46s are all driven by Turks so the insurance is twice as expensive as for the TT.

>>16928776
Actually the MK5 GTI would cost me about 2-3k€ more and it is slower in almost every way, pic related the TT is right. I also do not mind the TT being the worse version of a car that is twice as expensive.

Really it's just the last one that triggers me, I just replaced a fucking windshield on a "new" car and had a ton of dents and chips on my hood on my last one. It's not even like I'm tailgating; I'd leave so much of a gap people would get annoyed and cut in front of me but at that distance I'd still get hit with rocks

Judging cars by bodystyle or brand actually is retarded though. Judge them by their individual merits.

I think so. I was lookingat a 14-16 optima too, for a cheap commuter I cant put 20k-30k miles per year on. Good gas mileage, nice size, available in manual, nav, backup cam and leather? They're great cars under 15k

Why does autozone like to push this bullshit narrative that the people they hire are knowledgeable in cars, when in reality they know dick? I mean come on, at least McDonald's doesn't pretend the people working in their stores aren't literal trash. This is getting ridiculous. In fact the asshole probably knew the problem and didn't tell my dad because muh commission.

I'm completely retarded to cars but I can't escape needing to drive one any longer (I know how to operate a manual but I haven't driven in almost 4 years.) I'm also not good with cars in general.
Given this info, which beginner car is likely to keep me alive in case of an accident? Will there be any difference or is it just the looks? Pls respond

Just about any SUV/Sedan/Crossover/NotASportsCar from at least 2005 will protect your retarded self adequately.

Then again if you're this concerned for your safety then maybe you should just go ahead and kill yourself.

Or, better idea, buy a cheap as fuck sports car that way you either have to learn to drive or will die when you fail to do so.

I recommend a C5/C4 Corvette or maybe some 80s Porsche like a 924, 944, 928, 968.

Or you could just find any early 2000s Mercedes for cheap as fuck and ruin your life.
