commie cars are magical

They were also designed very conservatively and car-like, unlike the western autism spaceships with random cancer bulges

wartburgs are so communist

they literally made the stereotypical car, it's a sedan, everything is square aside from the wheels

it's the commieblock as a car, a cheap version of the capitalistblock square car like a BX or something

You're a piece of shit OP, saw that coming from the first line.

>>16595843
Yeah fuck you OP, I saw it coming before I even looked at the thread

I prefer a lot of Italdesign's works, but at the end of the day all designers have good and bad products.

They never were the best. Pic related is true art, a perfect marriage of form and function.

Closer look.

That will buff out, but what you need to worry about is if there's an actual DENT

Could you show us a photo of it?

What tires, what is their wear and what is their date of manufacture?

tires are the second most important things on your car senpai.

>>16594341
Dry rot is not a good sign. It's an indication that the integrity of your tire has been compromised. Your risk of blowing the tire is much higher and something as trivial as going at a high speed on the highway or driving over a curb can trigger it. Get it replaced.

Currently driving the Crown Vic, Caprice is in the garage for the winter.

Caprice has a problem with starting and when I manage to get it started, it stalls out right away. Dash keeps saying low oil so I've been looking into that, I think there is a problem with a vacuum line perhaps... its a phantom problem, I replace something, car runs fine for a little while then it comes back.

Eager for spring so I can get back into working on it.

So they're using this old logo on even non-carburated cars?

Why would they change a standard that everybody is aware of?

Bump, my dad had one but I know nothing about them and want some opinions. I recall my kindergarten friends being pretty impressed with it.

pigfat bundle of problems just like my 1st gf

lures you in with the promise of fun which to its credit it delivers on then it takes your wallet and patience on a ride until there isnt much of each left

youll whether stay dedicated to it to work through the problems or youll dump it on some other poor sod

Cause some people aren't poor

its a disposable piece of machinery and boy it is it stupid to get attached to material possesions

life is fair you just suck at it

this. its just a camero.

You got enough fuckin jerky there mate?

>>16632467
do you like beef jerkey

>>16632471
Don't change the FUCKING subject.

Now, answer me. What vehicle do these keys belong to?

With like 60 more hp? By a couple tenths on a 2 minute track? What's your point?

Don't get me wrong I don't like the m3 and adore the Alfa but wat?

that's nice

but at the end of the day the alfa is still going to depreciate 5x more than the bmw ever will, even if its a twinscroll turbo pile of shit.

The F chassis on the BMW is now 6 years old, dating back from 2011.

Its competitors are all brand new, sometimes developed with the sole purpose of chasing it down. It is not surprising they have caught up after several years.

for what benefit? I don't think you understand how engines work anon

>valve through piston
shit idea
