it's not a very good car
overpriced at dealers
unreliable
shit paint quality

ur money is better spent somewhere else.

I would rather have the Mustang GT.

/o/ hates it because it doesn't have a Japanese badge.

If Honda came with a real AWD 350hp hatch /o/ would be masturbating all over it.

about to purchase this for £300, listed as 88k mileage with a fucked alternator

FUn project or not, /o/?

>>17463842
For 300? hell, what have you got to lose

>>17463853
just driveway space :^)

Literally no torque
I used to fuck about with scooters and you can spot immediately when you get to the 300cc range how overbuilt they have to be
The CVT is useless in the age of hybrids, it's actually better to run an electric motor off the alternator

>>17482716
F1 is the literal no fun allowed of racing

Seriously fuck those cucks.

I want my car to feel like a snowmobile

>Redpill me on cams
Your engine is a glorified air pump. The camshaft is the control system: it determines when and how air is pumped. If the camshaft is the bottleneck in this sytem, upgrading it can make for easy horsepower gains, though usually at the expensive of peak torque, idle quality and powerband width. However, it might not be the bottleneck in the system: usually, that's a toss-up between heads, intake, exhaust and cam.

>how much HP would it five my 5.3l v8 Chevy
Depending on the cam (and your specific engine), up to 70hp. Be prepared to miss out on some bottom end torque though - not what you'd want if it's in a big truck or SUV.

Is matte black a factory paint option or is it dipped? I heard Ferrari is a huge bitch about wraps and stuff.

>>17482467
They didn't complain about the wrap, they complained about replacing the badges.

At 52k miles the trans fluid should be ok for a bit, but 152 is not a ripoff. My place wants 170 just for trans fluid change. It's because it's not a flush they actually drain it.

>>17482290
Yes, You do need your Tranny fluid changed, cause the heat and movement from the components begin to degrade the fluid, making it less functional and possibly damaging the transmission.

As for oil, YES you need to change your oil, as if you dont it will kill your car.

$155 is fucking cheap dude, by no means are you getting ripped off

>>17482319
Shit I didn't kbow there was a change and then there is a flush.
I wonder which one I am going to go get. I'm not good with cars obviously.
But my car everything I get I'm it says A3 due soon. And that was 3 weeks ago when it started saying it.
So now is a good time to do it right?
Glad I'm getting a good price. Full synthetic oil for $45 they said too.

>>17481953
It's really not that hard to get used to. Some guy was selling an S13 and I couldn't refuse a test drive. A little weird at first, but it's nothing come the 5-minute mark.

Awesome, just what I wanted to hear. It's impressive what the prices are for a nice Fairlady from Japan compared to here in the EU.
-

I'll never understand the people that lease 30k+ modern cars.

The correct term is RHD. Right Hand Drive.

Be glad you don't live in North America.

Also, check your import laws, over her we can't drive anything imported newer than 15 years old on the streets in Canada and 25 years in the USA.

Overpriced.

You'll be too lazy to turn it into a good sleeper.

>>17481845
I just want a reliable car that will last a long time for not very much money that isn't another damn civic or camry

>>17481839
what's a fair price according to you?

Did the turbulent air from that truck / driving with one hand at highway speeds cause the death wobble?

Is there a way to combat such a fate?

FWD are better, that's what happened

>>17481442
>Nissan Silvia? The Skyline? The Supra? The rx7/rx8?

those were never cheap. but yeah. everyone is doing hot hatchbacks now. kinda sucks.

>>17481459
Can you imagine that the fastest and most expencive supercars still use RWD or rear bias AWD? Those rich engineers must be retarded.
