it's soo funny to browse this board and see you poor fucking losers posting pictures of these 20 year old pieces of shit. I see people cruising down the highway on the way home from work driving these things trying to be cool with their fucking shitty cars and huge ass exhaust trying to make noise.

It's kind of fun to hang around but then boost kicks in and I'm gone.

Later losers.

the funny thing is that the car you used in your main picture for your post is most likely worth more money in the pictured condition than the car you're driving OP.

post your car wash/ waxing tips and products

I'm currently trying to figure out what I should buy, since I don't have access to a car wash area at my apartment and don't want to use the automatic wash any more. Anyone know any good Kits with everything included ex.(buckets, wash, wax, tire care, towels, etc)?

Boys found this 91 mr2. Looks perfect, 185k miles is super high for the price in my mind.

Does the quality and interior quality make this worth my time?

What should I shill him down to?

I love the look and would drive this for my short commute to work just to drive it.

If you resist the urge to fuck it up and mod it, it will actually make a good daily driver. That's a hard top, too. No leaky T-Tops to worry about.

There's a good amount in my area since there's two auto auctions that are close. Should I avoid or has anyone gotten good cars from these type of sellers
11 posts and 2 images submitted.
>>
only way to know is to check the car for yourself.

Look underneath at for any suspension and frame damage

Check the front rails and core support
Check underneath the carpet in the trunk for rear body damage

As for personal experience , I've bought plenty of auction total losses to flip as well as worked on cars that later get auctioned off .

dont get anything that doesn't run.
>>
>>16782241

Avoid the ones who are black/mexican, or white guys who act gangsta/black/mexican.

I once went to look at a C5 Corvette being sold by a black car flipper - not a single tire on the car matched, the radiator was free-hanging by the hoses, etc. Those were the only problems I could see outwardly, but he still hasn't sold the car yet and it's been like 4 months so...
>>
>>16782372
the one i talked to sounds like a older white guy, at least 60, so im kind of surprised hes even in this type of business. anyway, goes on to tell me about the new timing belt, oem hydraulic tensioner, ceramic break pads etc, alot of work for a car youre trying to flip. its an avalon btw

>incandescent/halogen headlights
>LED daytime running lights

This shit triggers me so goddamn much. Why do automakers do this?

If the headlights and foglights don't match the LEDs, then don't fucking put the LEDs on.

Tapped this guys car extremely slow, left a little paint mark no bumps, didnt have any officers show up, gave him a picture of my insurance -which dates are good but insurance is not- and birth certificate sense i didnt have my ID on me. Its been almost 48 hours nd he texted me saying contact him nd we'll discuss getting my car repaired. He doesnt have the right address as its wrong on my insurance card.
So question is do i discuss giving him 100$, or tell him get fucked , or just dont contact him, i dont wanna put myself at fault IF POSSIBLE so i get even more fucked. I live in IL if that helps at all
Pic for attention, my accident was more minimal

Camaro update

Jacked up the rear wheels and turned it on, put it in Drive and hit the gas and the driveshaft doesnt turn at all. So trans fucked then? Should I even bother opening up the differential then?

I didn't pop the difference cover off no, but I turned the wheels while I had themy jacked up. They spunderstand in opposite directionside. Driveshaft doesnt turn with them though. Heard noise coming from flexplate/ torque converter though so I'm gonna check that too

Bow to your new godmachine

What the fuck is it with FCA and hamfisting their shit in every single comic book movie nowadays?

Watched Logan last night, the '16 500x was the worst offender, it was beaten up and shit, implying any Fiat would even survive that long (2029) kek

Also main character bought pic related for 10k in a scene, ya right lmao.

Who are the target buyers of cars that look like this? I mean it looks cool and all but who would actually want to buy it? Are they for people in the tuner culture?
I remember some advertising mobile game for pic related presented the car like some sort of party car to take your friends around with at night.
But it's still pretty weird looking and I don't get how these cars managed to go from the concept stage into actual production. What would make people pick this car over an average hatchback?
Are these cars succesful in the market?

My mom got one of these. 2010 model i think, not sure. She thought it was cute. She also thought the juke was cute, so actually it could have been worse.

When i took it in to the dealer for some maintenance shit a sales guy came up to me and wanted to know if i wanted to trade it in, offered me 9k for it. Considering she paid 14k for it 5 years previously, thats not much of a drop. Sales guy said that they were very easy to sell, so i guess there is a market. Fuck me if i know why, everything that it does theres something else that does it better
