Why don't they just capture the CO2 and launch it into space?
Why don't they just burn it?
Why don't they just plant more trees?
Why don't they just tax activities that produce CO2 to internalize their follow-up costs and incentivize the development of new emissions-reducing technology?
Oh wait that would be communist.
Why shouldn't I buy a yaris ia for 11.5k?
Because you can get a notably better car about two years used for the same price?

>>17016666
because you can get a civic for 3k that does everything just as well.

literally this
Ask questions related to driving a manual here.
So I have been driving manual for about 3 months now. I feel as if I have got it down for the most part, don't need my handbrake for hillstarts anymore and have good reversing control
I'm still worried about fucking up my clutch
What is incorrect clutch use that leads to a burnt out clutch?
When I take off in first I find my revs are around 2-3k. is that too much that will fuck my shit up?
I also find in slower tighter areas that I use my clutch a fair bit to control speed and stop stalling. eg car parks when everyone is trying to get out. or slow manuvures. how badly is it to use the clutch in crawling speeds? should I use it for a certain amount of time (like say 10seconds) before I push it back in all the way to give it a bit of a rest.

YOUR HEARSES
hey /o/, i dont know shit about cars so i come here seeking your educated opinions. il link the craiglist so you can see what it has aswell as copy the details here. id be buying for 25k, is it worth that? i would be making it my daily driver if i were to buy it. share your thoughts with me /o/.

heres what he says about it:
383 Stroker, 6--71 Weiand Blower, Two 600 holley carburetors, Steel crank, Blower pistons, Roller rockers, 675 L 375 d cam, Doug Nash 5 speed, Short shift pattern, Quick release steering wheel, dark tint t-- tops, detuned for street, large fans for street use, Looks and runs great, new $5000.00 carbon fiber seat covers and door panels, was told over 800 hp from previous owner, detuned to 600 hp for street use. JPthis is a very fast car. A few things that needs to be repaired are speedo and tach,
i added up the parts mentioned apart from the seat covers and 675 L 375 d cam, because it didnt show up anywhere and came up to about 10k.
Before we even discuss cost, I really don't think it's very wise to invest in that vehicle if you're not super interested in cars, or know much about repairs and maintenance in general.
25k can get you a lot of car, and if you want something fast, there's plenty of options out there for you. Especially if you're open to the used market.
>>17016461
Im not obsessed, but appreciate a good car, and wanting to learn more on how they operate and how to repair. Say hypothetically i was a car conasseur, would you recommend the car then? Would i lose money of it if i sold it a year from now? I wouldnt imagine so since corvettes have low depreciation.
I'm making one more thread just to build up my confidence before I throw any money down the toilet
>buying '87 fiero gt off CL
pros
>only 99k miles
>$800
>no rust
>comes with loads of extra parts and wheels worth almost as much as the car
>not iron duke
cons
>body is totally sun damaged
>engine hesitates badly (possibly misfires) and i have no idea whats causing it, possibly plugged cat/vacuum leak/throttle body sensor but is likely a more expensive repair
>minimal repair knowledge currently but trying to learn
>living with parents and have no place to store a broken down car or tow it if it kicks the bucket within the next month or so
The sticky implies that fieros are difficult to take care of and become a money sink in the long run, anyone want to convince me one way or another if I should give this a shot?
>>17016286
>fieros are difficult to take care of and become a money sink in the long run
This is why you shouldn't buy one.
>>17016305
Is it really that bad?
Just pay a shop to swap the engine. You'd spend a lifetime diagnosing the issues in that engine especially since you say you have minimal repair knowledge.
