It's bad enough retards abuse automatic cars like they're takumi

>>17365642
Also another compelling argument against rental companies having manuals.
You'd have people who think they were hot shit and rip through clutches like there's no tomorrow
I just honestly want just want manuals to be great again but unfortunately that'll never come. I know I should get with the times but manual is pretty much the only thing i've driven since I was 15.

>Rent car so I don't wear my car out on 900 mile trip
Autist. You just spent more money than you'd have wiped off the value of your car.

>>17365621
Why keep spamming this car?

According to /o/ right now the best cars are the Nissan Sentra, Lincoln Navigator and Tesla Model 3. This can't be right.

>>17365647
That's a Versa.

>>17365654
Oh. Did Nissan Audify their lineup?

i'd even own a supra mk3 despite the price of maintaining it and it being a heavy brick as long as it'd have flares like this.

>Open wheel racing
>Safe

I mean
Objectively not

>>17365334
I would never do open wheel stuff.
I'll race my SM Mazda in a run group of 50 cars with no fear but these FV/FF/FJ cars scare the shit out of me.

Exactly

None of the automakers will allow a third-party system to control their cars.

Apple needs to make their own car if they want to do this. They can still afford to buy Tesla outright at least 50 times over. You just know they're salivating over that Model 3 interior. One iPad Pro cengral-mounted to the dash to control all functions is very Apple.

>tfw no Rekord C coupe
Are they the same car by any chance?

>>17365205
Yeah, the Commodore is the straight 6-powered luxury version of the Rekord C.

>having a Volvo in Sweden

That's like being proud of having a Burger in America

you screw your towing hook in there

>>17365114
Thanks mate, I've been searching whole afternoon

>never driven
3k civic, unironically

>>17364919
All the civics I'm finding are over 10k. Where do you people find 3k ones? Show me your ways.

1. buy ~$3k car (private party) with probable low running cost, and get what you actually need, not "nice to have". remember, it's just temporary. you don't need to have the sunroof, or the silky smooth 6 cylinder option
2. follow scheduled maintenance
3. save several hundred dollars a month as if it were a car payment
4. a year later, or whenever, sell car, losing next to no money out side of gas, insurance, maintenance), buy newer car outright.
5. be happy

Alternatively, Put off step 4 until the cost of maintenance/repairs of your car (+ value of car prior to maintaince/repair) could buy something better, or no longer like the car.

Anyone have any clue where to search??

Im looking for speaker brackets for 2 cars

I'd choose the nissan navara, it has more power and superior ride quality.

Oh and it's gotta be as permanent as possible, obviously. So these tire shop "let's mark summer and winter tires"-pens obviosuly aren't enough

Pass. My experience with paint and plastics/rubber would be to give the surface in question a date with some 200-400 sandpaper and give the paint somewhere to bleed into.

>>17364634
Yea I agree, I would defo rub this shit for a while to give it some better ground. What paint have you used?

is that a top gear scene?
