Lada Niva
Pretty much the only commie shitbox that is still being made since 1977. They've changed a few things to fit with the rest of the west aswell, but surely you can find older models.
Also look-up Aro. May be rarer and expensiver, but heard they were pretty solid.
Best/cheapest ricebox for drifting?
>pic related?

If you like cars that are shitty and never run
>>16526853
you answered your own question, why the hell did make this thread?
stop shitting up this board and stick to playing forza horizon and watching haggard garage
btw the miata is in no way a good car to drift with no matter how many people try and use it. too short of a wheelbase.
>>16526853
That's not a V6 F-body or a V6 SN95
Vehicle I seen at work today.

So me and two friends want to roadtrip down though Mexico over spring break, whats a good cheap car to buy for the trip? In theory we could do a little off roading but it's not necessary. I don't think our budget would be more than a couple thousand dollars. Maybe it's better to buy two cars in case one breaks down (and we need to get parts)? Should probably note that I'm the only that has actually worked on a car before.

I would say Ford explorer 10-20 years old when it was on the ranger platform. Rangers and explorers are everywhere down there so parts availability will be no problem. They are also reliable vehicles assuming you maintain them properly and can do easy off roading .
Not too flashy, and won't have to worry about theft.
Big enough to sleep in the back to save cost if you need to.
Source: did a road trip from California to Mexico city and back.
Buy an Econoline Ford E series box van.
bug
Selling my Mustang because the previous owner was a retard and modded it up the ass with shitty mods that are coming apart.
I want a reliable luxury car that is fun to drive. Preferable AWD or something cuz i do live in the north. Auto or manual IDC.
Something like Cadillac CTS/Infiniti G35/ Lincoln MKZ/ whatever.
What does /o/ think?
>>16533663
Lexus is leagues above all others in terms of reliability. Literal Toyota tier, for obvious reasons.
>>16533719
Seconding Lexus. Get an IS300-350

>suggesting a RWD sedan for snow
shame on you.
>>16533663
OP what's your budget?
Why the fuck are Europoor cars so fucking slow?
Pic related is an Audi A5 which is a perfect example. It is expensive as shit and looks like it should have about 400bhp, but it's shitty 4 cylinder diesel only makes 187bhp.
>100 hp v8

>cherry picking from the 1970's
At least the Mustang II didn't look like a road ripping monster.
And it wasn't
The Audi A5... and pretty much all Audis are so much worse since they're agressive as fuck, btu unless you get the S or RS models, they're not all that powerful or quick.
>>16534697
What part of the OP looks "road-ripping" to you?
That design is absolutely sedate.
Only modern car I like... and the closest one is 6 hours away...

You fuckers better not buy it
Yeah it's not a manual but it a slow comfy cruiser.
What do you guys think of maybe getting a Suzuki SX4, and lifting it?
>>16533064
>What do you guys think of maybe getting a Suzuki SX4, and lifting it?
why?
Lower it, toss on an RRM turbo kit and enjoy the hot hatch it was born to be.
I can't wait for people to start lifting those new hrvs
>>16533101
Well I do MILD off roading. A car could handle the trails I go on... I need to get rid of my soccer mum SUV and get something that gets better than 16 mpg.
It's not pretty, but it's reliable and cheap.
It's pretty quick from 0-25 aswell.

used a stock photo cause I don't have a phone to take a picture
>>16532439
You mean because of the headlights?
Just a thing the previous owner added, i like em,
But yeah no, the closest i come to is doing 30mph on small dirt roads.
behold
>>16532058
garbage
>>16532058
thats not allowed
>>16532058
damn, always hated bmw looks, but get rid of the circle headlights and doesnt look half bad.
Do the photons that are created by nuclear fission in our local star that travel through the vacuum of space, through the atmosphere of Earth and then reflect off of my motor vehicle, into your pupil, through your vicious humor and eventually into your retina which contain photoreceptive cones that when stimulated create an electrolyte reaction between sodium chloride and potassium in your nervous cells that generate electrons that activate protein pumps that send a signal to your occipital lobe activate a dopamine response?
Or as a simpleton would say it, "do you like my car?"
A response signifying approval of the statement generated by opposing party using fine motor skills to press electromechanic devices commonly known as "buttons" and using a world wide computer network to send said statement to the fucking chinese car forum.
Yes.

i have 245/50R20 Tires, I now wish to purchase 245/45R20 tires, what are the downsides of having a 12.25 mm smaller tire? How do I get the correct speedometer reading?
>>16531664
you recalibrate the speedo
>>16531675
but with what though, do I have to go to the dealer? Do I have to buy the tires from them or will they charge me
any other thoughts
Why do only Americans make muscle cars?
Because we don't consider a 2L engine to be "big".
>>16530803
Australians do.
AMG's could be proper muscle cars if they came in manual

>not getting the joke
Recommend me a Little Trees flavor?
I tried black ice and I found it to be nauseating and overpowering.
what's something light and sweet
You're not supposed to eat them, idiot. Hang the black ice tree from your mirror, or put it under your seat.
Black Forest is nice, it's not nearly as overpowering as Black Ice but it's harder to find in stores.
The best one is Leather.
Holy shit /o/ I just ran from the cops and got away. I'm sitting in my basement and am so paranoid I might puke. Hold me /o/. Anyone have any stories??
>>16533583

i got caught sucking dicks for cash and escaped in my civic
I bought a manual car but I have minimal experience. I need to drive it home through a busy arterial road. Home is located downtown with lots of traffic.
Will I reach the highest level by driving home in my manual car or will I crash with no survivors?
Leave a comment below and like if you enjoy my thread. Thanks!
