about tree fiddy

The biggest hurdle you're going to have is fabrication. You'd have to be able to put together a chassis AND make the body panels and glass.
Not to mention suspension components.
Then there's the task of sourcing an engine and trans. I'm pretty sure these things are AWD so you have that to figure out too.

Avoid Beamers unless you plan on working on the car a lot. They're engineered to be comfy and fun to drive, but are unreliable as fuck.

If you want a car that isn't susceptible to problems go Japanese (Honda, Toyota are your best bets).

>memeing and shilling this hard

Honda went downhill on reliability. E36 and E46 are pretty reliable as long as you dont go batshit insane with the engine, and you wont find rust unless you live in a place where it snows.

>>16611799
My understanding is that they have very reliable engines, and the manual transmission is fairly reliable (especially compared to the auto). I'm hoping that the other problems will be less ubiquitous since I won't be driving too often

Can you elaborate?

Went from 'too many brands but some are really good' to 'still too many brands and most of them are shit'

That they still sell GMC AND Chevy versions of the same truck is retarded. Ditto for SUVs. They got fucked up having too many brands competing with each other, and they STILL won't axe either GMC or Chev trucks and SUVs.

They scrapped Saturn and Pontiac but kept Buick solely because chinks love it... not even old white people care about Buick now. People would buy a modern Grand National if it was decent, it's basically THE American sport sedan... but GM keeps pretending that SS don't sell and that Mercedes and BMW didn't build their fortunes on them.

Cadillac has some promising sports sedans but they mostly sell Escalades to striver soccer moms and nigs. Whenever I see an Escalade in my mirror i pull over and let them pass because either way there's a guaranteed moron behind the wheel.

Chevy is boring except for the Corvette and Camaro, but the Camaro has such abysmal styling/visibility that it's really only for Camaro fans now. Everything else in the lineup is just 'well i need a vehicle and I like GM products so-'

Killed Pontiac and Oldsmobile because the bean counters are fucking retards, don't give a single fuck about them nowadays besides the rebadged Holdens and whatever new sportster Cadillac makes.

They've done this several times. This time it's just a rebadged version of Toyota's successor to the Scion xB/Toyota bB, which was also rebadged as a Subaru Dex.

>>16611273
Is that a fucking Scion xB? With a Subaru badge?

Yeah of course, practical, comfortable and reliable. As for the engine trim, test drive both and see which one you like better, /o/ will always recommend the biggest engine.

Why would you want something so boring?

>>16611292
Like your 3k civic is any more fun, Pedro

>>16611212
Here's another note, I guess. The odometers on both cars are more or less identical (115k), so how much of a concern is the extra ten years of age? We are comparing the Lexus product to a Mitsubishi one

>>16611212
For this we must call upon the old fag. GEHRAZ.. WE SUMMON YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i know its not that fast but only other cars i had was my dads mountaineer and then a ford taurus. this thing beats them by far it's not fast but it feels like it has really good acceleration.

have fun spending at least half of what you paid for it in repairs over the next 2 years.

You're burning oil.

You under filled it

Trump approved the Dakota Access pipeline, and all your oil has been sold to Canadians.
