Why does everyone hate on bagged cars?

Just because my cars on bags doesn't mean i drive with my car jacked up high.

My hilux is on bags but i still drive with it scrapping everywhere.

When I see a speed bump I keep my car railed and scrape over it just like everyone else.

I scrape more than all these fags with static suspension so why all the hate?

So here's a unique issue that I've been unable to solve, wondering if anyone here has any insight:

My wife's 2006 PT Cruiser randomly loses power to the front parts of her car. Namely, the headlights and the windshield wipers. I can disconnect the battery and it tends to start to work again, but it gradually worsens to the point of not working every time.

I've noticed that one-by-one the lights on her stereo preprogram buttons have gone out.

Most interestingly is that the parking brake seems to eventually become some sort of switch in that when it's engaged, the headlights and wipers won't run, but when disengaged, they run. If they are running and the brake is engaged, they will not turn off until the brake is disengaged.

At first when I reconnect the battery, all these systems work normally, then slowly it gets to the point where they only work when the parking brake is disengaged, then shortly afterwards they cease to work altogether.

Any suggestions?

electrical issues are the hardest to diagnose. It's likely a wiring short somewhere. start at the battery and go from there.

My cousin (guy is in his 60s by now) was on the design team for the PT Cruiser. That's one thing you don't want on your resume.

Okay /o/ heres the deal,

SW20 is a car I have on my list. It is a lot more unique than the Subbie for one. Less space so I think that is pretty important to consider in terms of your use for the car.

I have a '97 M3 so the space is certainly similar to WRX, but for my uses an SW20 would work most of the time.

ITT we post times we had something scary happen while driving.

I'll start:
>be me 30 minutes ago
>driving home in the rain, VSC turned off for easy rolling burnouts
>enter wet freeway downwards spiral onramp
>unthinkingly hit the gas a little too hard forgetting VSC isn't there to save my dumb ass
>tfw no limited slip diff
>tfw my car now only has traction on the front wheels
>over correct steering to the left, attempting to level out
>car is rotating the other way now
>thisishowitends.pdf
>over correct to the right, DEJA VU
>finally get the car straight after one more correction

I'm pretty sure that a good representation of what I looked like was if you just rapidly switch between turning left and turning right on GTA V. I've only ever accidentally lost traction once before, so I wasn't prepared for this.

What other stories does /o/ have?

When did Dodge bring the Viper back or have I been living under a rock? Ignoring value for the money compared to its similarly priced competition, let alone efficiency, is it good or exactly what you'd expect from Chrysler?

The fuck are you doing OP?

If you must, please consider used 135i or 335i.

And that is just about it.

If it has to be new, then you are overpaying and should just get a Chevy SS.
>>
>>16545052
Not OP but fuck did I want the 135is. I test drove the 135i and it's so fucking good. If you don't have a family on the way like me, definitely get the 135i. They are only $26k at MSRP, you could definitely talk them down another $2-3k easily.

Is there any way to meet the newest American diesel emissions standards without an SCR system and DPF? The 3.2L I5 Ford Powerstroke looks like it would be interesting to swap into various vehicles.

Please god tell me one of you knows a way to push out at least 200hp from an mk6 jetta.
It feels like i'm driving underwater with an engine somewhere between a lawnmower and a gokart.

I have about 1k to spend and specifically the car is a 14 Jetta 2.0L S (non turbo)

Is that the 115hp 8v 2.slow that's been in production literally since the '80s?
If so, you're shit outta luck. Trying to get more power out of those is pointless.

At least the engine's utterly bulletproof and it'll outlive the rest of the car 10 times over.

>>16544783
Can't sell it, didn't buy it
My only hope is to mod it

I just can't find anyone online who'd even bother with it.
Its all 2.slow this 2.slow that, why'd you buy this car faget?

OK /o/

Here is my Question.

in December 2015 my car was totaled on a trip to NYC. The last time I saw the car was it was in some Brooklyn towing companies lot. the insurance payed and it was a done deal

Went through my old paperwork and it turns out I still have the ownership slip and spare key for the car (insurance company never asked for it)

Could I just go back to NY and "Get" my car if its just been fixed and put back on the road?

>>16544763
did they give you a junk certificate or something?
idk how insurance works haha lol
>>
who says you need an ownership slip?
if you have the keys, the car belongs to you. go and get it
ignore any police following you with lights and sirens active, it is your legal right to operate your car
do not stop and talk to them, as they will take the car from you
(they are probably jealous)
i repeat, do not pull over for the police
you will go to jail
it will be a big mistake. you will wonder why you did it

They're pretty reliable and the 5 cylinder engines make a great noise.
