What does /o/ think of the LS400?
I'm considering buying one for my next car.
mine
>>16787260
Do it. Then straight pipes and ITBs. And then soundproofing to get the comfiness back.
>>16787280
Is this a different gen ls400 or whats up with the different front? (Compared to op pic)
I swear I cant find anything else than the OP image here in Swedan.

Did I luck out or did the guy just not give a shit and wanted to go home? Honestly I think it was a chick because they had some gay license plate barb wire cover the ones that girls get when they think they're a bad bitch and probably was scared that I was following her or some shit.
Any of you boys got stories like this?

Based in-laws are giving me their '86 Monte Carlo as long as I never sell it. Its a cream puff, so mechanical all good. Recommend me some good upgrades, /o/ that'll suit the car from now on. I'm white, so no ghetto shit.
I can already tell I'm changing those wheels (probably to spokes), whitewalled tires & tinting those windows.
The only thing you should do is tint the windows, have the clear coat redone if it's not perfect, and exchange any trim piece or cloth that shows any wear.
Keep that shit in pristine stock condition, and treat her right afterwards. She'll be a peach.

>emissions standards should be overhauled to reflect the growing consumer demand for larger, less fuel-efficient vehicles such as pickup trucks.
>With prices below $3 a gallon, the companies are eager to capitalize on the demand for larger vehicles. About three in five new vehicles sold in the United States are pickups and sport utilities, and analysts expect the trend to continue and expand into global markets as well.
oh great. more SUVs and pickups

Why can't America into superbike racing?
What is it about American motorcycle manufactures that scares them away from peak motorcycle performance?
>>16779274
Rednecks insist on only using bikes on dirt tracks bc amerifats
/thread
>>16779274
Harley has ruined the market for American motorcycles (and they screwed buell over too) add to the fact that the Japanese produce a superior product, it makes it hard for any American company to get a decent foothold in sports racing.
>>16779274
Because stupid rednecks would rather stand around drinking shit beer and watching moving advertisement billboads they think are "stock cars."
Rather than appreciate the balls, the skill, intricate knowledge of physics and mechanics, and talent it takes to pilot a screaming fucking eagle of death around a track at 200 miles per hour.
What car would you get if you had to live in it?

Auction car buying. How do you profit from it?
There is a local auction house that sells cars around $2k under KBB. Was thinking about buying a car and trying it out, reselling it, and making some side cash.
Anybody ever do this? Advice?
>pic unrelated
resale on craiglist
Buy low, sell high.
>>16790168
my advice is to present yourself as a dealer
i personally wouldn't want to buy a car that someone only wanted for a week

Pull out my .44 Magnum, shoot them in the face, then hoist up and wave the American flag back and forth as eagles fly overhead before president trump lands in marine one and personally shakes my hand for making Texas and the UNITED STATES OF AMERICAâ„¢ a better, safer place.

RUF just revealed their new creation, or should I say recreation, so the decided to bring back the yellowbird with 700 hp now, whats your thoughts, also its still Manuel. I think it looks fantastic, adding mild modern touches, but over all keeping the classic look in tact.
>>16788909
Cool, now I can die even faster

Delicous.
>you will never drive a semi truck
How do /o/ folks deal with this feel?
>>16788854
I have driven a semi so i don't know this feel
It's overrated. My Uncle let me drive his around the parking lot one Christmas. When you're so high up it feels like you aren't going anywhere.
