what do you think about this /o/
>two teens died in a car accident on a 45mph road by crashing their car into a tree.
>they were in a 2016 Porsche Macan, and they were both 16.
shouldn't their parents be at fault for letting them drive such an expensive performance car at 11:30 pm?

Ok, so I have a classic that is starting to rust around the edges of the wheel wells and rear quarters. What's the best way to temporarily (a couple years) deal with the rust and keep it from spreading until I am able to perform a proper blasting and repaint? There's no holes yet, and I'm trying keep it from getting worse. The previous owner did a shit-tastic job "restoring" the vehicle, and now the cheap paint job is starting to peel, bubble, and fall off. Pic is not my car.

Flap disc & angle grinder to the rust
Paint cleaned areas with steel primer
Put paint ontop
Put clearcoat ontop
It'll look like shit, but better than rust

It's just that it has more contrasting colors and some guages. Change the interior to black and gray and switch the guages for an ipad and it's pretty much the same.

What are the real consequences of putting regular low octane fuel in a performance car? If it only goes through like 1-2 tanks of regular fuel is the car damaged?

In a modern car? You will just end up with less power as the computer fucks with the timing to compensate for the low octane.
>>
milage and power take a huge hit
dont know if it does any permanent damage
>>
Depends. Most of the time it's nothing but less power since car needs to retard timing. Older cars don't have knock sensors and thus will be damaged by it.
If it's especially shitty gas, even modern cars can be damaged since the car will have to retard timing so much that combustion is almost completely outside the power stroke.

A race is created where drivers must traverse a 500 mile desert, Mad-Max style. Any and all weapons and vehicles are permitted and fuel isn't a concern. You get one car and your choice of any real weapon with as much ammunition you can carry.

>2007 saturn aura died
>tow it to a buddies house and replace the fuel pump because all signs point to no fuel
>still doesn't start
>take fuel line off and try to crank
>gas only dribbles out
wtf
>wheel bearings also dying
>it's also pissing out coolant
I can't keep paying to have my car fixed or having it die for a week at a time.
should I just get a lease? or just hoof it until I can afford a decent car that won't break down every 5,000 miles?
I've only ever had cars with over 200,000 miles before, and they were mostly saturns.
not an /o/ regular and not too smart, plz no bully

I don't know what you mean?
is it completely obvious why the fuel pump wouldn't work?
or am I shitting up the board or something?
>>
Did you check the fuel pump relay or fuse? Does the fuel pump turn on at all? Is the fuel filter clogged? Are the fuel lines clogged?
Wheel bearings/hub assemblies shouldn't be that bad, just a bit pricy if it's the latter. As for the coolant just find where the leak is and replace the part. Could be a hose or something. Not that bad.

Brakepads are consumables and are easy to replace but throwout bearings are neither of those things particularly.

Welcome to Off Road General where we do limited off roading because of cold and work. But we manage to do a lot of shitposting.
Post yourself on the map so that we can meet up and do some actual off roading:
