why? its a good first car.
the hard part is finding one in THAT condition

>>17291318
I don't think you should get a CRX Si as your first car.

>>17291323
Right I agree but I want to believe...

Yeah there's this thing call trim levels so you can choose the features you care about.
You yanks don't have that?

>>17291310
Not for European cars as they are usually sold fully loaded otherwise you need to custom order.

Air conditioning isn't necessary in a fair few eurocolonies, I never use my A/C here in the UK

The second thing is almost always true, I wouldn't buy a car with that gay key and I don't need a camera, which I think burgers will need after May 2018?

Do you get fewer options over there? It seems like a lot of people around where I live buy base models, that doesn't seem to be much snobbery about your trim level

ur mums lookin for some fresh cock to surf m8.

>>17291173
Wouldn't surprise me.

>>17291172
Aside from the automatic part, what's wrong with this ?
Don't they have the same reliability and durability as it's predecessors ?

Overall not really. It's value will just continue to fall. But from a driving standpoint it's the last of the classical fwd V8 Cadillacs they were known for decades. It'll provide a driving experience no other car can provide

Caddys depreciate like crazy, more than most other cars

the DTS is not really a desirable caddy

but hey at least it stays cleaner than my bullshit tan interior

>>17290682
It's the only low-mileage, decent condition first gen 4runner in my country. Traded my old Galloper for it. Was selling for $4,500 and I just couldn't pass it up.

>>17290688
Looks comfy m8, but yeah, it's going to be harder to mask the stains in the tan.

If you maintain the car to manufacturer specifications then the car will last literally until the frame rots. Repairing a car is a personal opinion. I've trashed a car at 20,000 miles because it was treated well but the tranny still took a shit so I returned it. But on the other hand I have a 170k bmw that I still love.

What's raping you is the spark plugs. This is why V anything in a fwd setup is a nightmare. Probably pay for the repair so it's on record you maintained it for sellers. I would save up for a car that you're willing to take care of yourself.

>>17290248
Buy some tools and do it yourself. You'll spend more but then you'll gain the experience and you'll already have tools for the next job.

>buying a tc
>financing 4k
0/10. Be more discrete next time.

>>17290128
I don't have that cash on me so I'd like to finanance. What's wrong with that?

And I thought a tC is a good reliable car?

>>17290128
Would it be better to go to a bank and pull out a small loan?

>saw some guy on ninja 600 (650?) Absolutely fucking destroy a cop who was tryna pull him over

I was doing 130 in the fast lane and he went by me at 145, then when the whoop whoop came on he must've hit 220 in like 4 seconds. Completely Out of my view in legit 20 seconds

>>17289692
Most of the time yes its pretty easy.

Depends on your car though. Some cars are engineered to push tour shit in.

>>17289692
What kind of car? Some are easy, some are hard.

>>17289715
4.6 2v pi heads

I've done it before on this car and the belt shred due to me installing it on wrong, bought a new belt and shes been fine ever since but alternator is going out again and I don't have a garage to work on the car

No v12, no care.

sure, but i dont intend on buying one because i can't afford it

what i can afford though, is an e31. And im going to get one soon.

>>17289569
They're making an M car for it.

>>17289478
Fuck no. That's just liquid bullshit.

>>17289478
I do not trust that stuff.
Change your oil when the manufacturer said to change your oil.

I've never used it, but it seems sketchy.

Also

>spending more than 5k on a car

Let me guess, it's gonna have an anemic turbocharged engine that pushes it to 60 about as fast as a Ford Transit, with roughly $6000 worth of appearance upgrades and "sport tuned suspension" or something

REDBADGE BRO

good thing you already have "fixing" in your vocabulary

expensive spare parts
expensive to fix
gonna need a fair amount of fixing.
if you've got the money and know what you're doing it could be a great weekend car.

>>17289265
don't they require a ton of maintenance to keep running? Conveniently, parts are also expensive as shit. It's a neat car if you have the time and money to work on it.

>>17289118
I'd rather have the GTO than a focus or v6 camaro

>>17289118
A fully loaded focus is $37,000

the excursion with a 7.3t diesel would btfo your local city transportation. real question is why did the v10 exist.

>>17289098
No idea but they have comically huge interiors.
I wonder if Jay Leno has one. Jay has all sorts of cars.
