95 F150, starter started spinning and would not shut off, had to D/C Negative wire to get it stop.
Now when I try to start it, it wont engage the flywheel but still spins, Safe to say its the Solenoid?
I'm looking to buy a used car, max of 14k hopefully less though. Sedan or a small SUV, looking for a reliable vehicle that's nice to be in and drive. But I have a bunch that I'm looking at hopefully I can get some quick opinions on what I should outright avoid and what I should look more into. Thanks in advance.
>2010 Buick Lacross CXL - 87k miles - $10k
>2009 Lincoln MKZ - 74k - $9.5k
>2011 BMW 328i xDrive - 92k - $13.25k
>2007 Lexus ES 350 - 56k - $12.3k

>2010 Acura TL SH-AWD - 108k - $12.7k

If you want reliable the first three need to be stricken from your list.
The last two are glorified hondas, while reliable, are really no better than nicely spec'd Honda Crv for the MDX, or Accord for the Tl.
R32 GTR or a 2011 CTS-V Coupe for a DD?

This engine is shit.
Post other shit engines.
God damn the shitters are hyperactive tonight.
Barra straight 6.
Makes less power with a turbo than aLS can make naturally aspirated.
Heavy as fuck.
Long as fuck.
Tiny, useless displacement.
Lol turbo lag to get modern power.
The Porsche Flat 6 is right behind it.
Hey guys Im pretty young and been bringing in a lot of money lately but pretty retarded when it comes to cars. I also just got my license. I want to spoil myself a bit with something sporty. In the computer world, we have Lenovo thinkpad laptops which offer good speed and realibility at extremely good prices. Is there an auto equivalent of the thinkpad. I live in EU specifically AT, Ive been having a look at old Jaguars, are they okay?

What kind of car is this?
>>17616458
What is that in the back window?

Battletoads with a Halo 2 reskin
Saw this gorgeous 70s or 80s japanese sports car today and I can't figure out what it is.
It looked a lot like the 240z in terms of shape and design however the back end was a bit fatter, and the tail lights were more like a square rather than the 240z more rectangular shape. Any ideas?
260Z
280Z
280ZX
no, its a differerent car with a different bodystyle. It just looks very similar to a 240z. When I mean square headlights, I mean truly a square.
>>17616393
The one in the OPs pic is definitely a 260z. I can tell by the rear end and the 240z badge on the trunk lid.
After four months this pos finally made it to my drive way. Broken valve springs popped head gasket. Corrosion on the front timing cover. Fucked power steering pump. Now it needs a fuel pump. Apparently the valves springs were stock with a 500 lift cam. Great combination. Spent the last week fixing electric. Have to build a new headlight harness for the passenger side. It will roast drag radials all the way through first gear. Paint color is royal sapphire pearl, it's a Lexus color.
>>17615655
That paint is lovely. Wish my car was that color
That body style is one of my favorites. I like the Firebird Formula duel hood scoops better, though.
Broken spring. 7 cylinders of fury.
Was wondering if the Bronco is worth getting as a daily driver
>>17615594
It you have the money for gas go for it, OJ.
And make sure the timing chain has be replaced already.
>>17615594
find one with a 302.
Hello, anon. I own a Bronco and daily it. I love my truck, and I'm not a truck guy. I will admit a large portion of that is related to it being a family heirloom of sorts.
A couple things: People will comment on it. As you can see, my truck isn't in fantastic shape (an on-going restoration, really) but I get comments frequently enough "Hey, nice truck! Gotta love Broncos!" or occasionally, "Hey, OJ!" This may have a lot to do with living in the south, though.
Gas mileage: I've got the 302 with 4-speed Automatic Overdrive transmission. I frequently floor it when getting on the highway or passing. It's slow. I also get about 11mpg. If I drove a bit more conservatively, that would improve a bit but you will not see anything higher than mid-teens at best.
Common issues: After 130k miles or so, the rear main seal will likely leak. You'll also probably have some assorted gasket leaks. Mine was a valve cover gasket. Good news is, these trucks are pretty easy to work on. Bad news is, they're old, so there's going to be rust and crud and shit everywhere.
Driving-wise: I can hop curbs like nobody's goddamn business, which still hasn't gotten old. Truck stopped in the middle of where you want to go with no room? Hop that curb. No fucks given. Parts availability is off the wall, since almost the entirety of the truck is F-150.
tl;dr: I like driving my truck, and I'm not a truck guy at all. 11mpg is no fucking joke, though.
Whats the best 90s car, /o/?

What the FUCK is this guy's problem?

>>17615248
Does he hate German cars or is it just Mercedes?
>>17615265
He thinks bmw is stupid for removing dipsticks (they are, coming from a fanboi) but nearly all of his hate is reserved for mercedes
Is this a good deal if I could talk them down to $2000? Is 170k mile to many for an 06 Madza6i? Is the rust a big deal? could I stop the rust? I just want a beater for the next couple year at most.
If its a shit deal do any of these look better?

Any e46 M3 owners out there? Have you had any electrical issues?
Might as well ask the Pope if he believes in God while you're at it.
