Certainly they are.
But so are pictures of super models.
Does that make a super model is somehow less beautiful, though?

>>16377552
what makes you think it's been shopped?

>>16377552
Not photoshopped to the point of replacing the background. But its alot of light painting and playing around with HDR

Also not my car but obviously similar.

You guys don't like cars much do you?

Crossovers so boring I had to read thumbnail to even know what it was. Enjoy your a to b though, should be reliable

Clutch and tires are two different smells. I would bet you just roasted the tires a bit if you dig all the way to pavement or grass

Clutches smell kind of sweet and plastic

All i smelt was burnt tires and i know what clutch smells like. So the clutch should be fine then, now for the tires i assume i just wrecked the tread on them a bit

It's okay as an econobox to drive around in in a sensible manner

>>16376768

Nah if you get a mk3 you'll want the vr6.

>>16376935
Apparently they have shit balance and understeer due to it being mounted in front of the axle

honda 4 life

>>16376581
I pity any poor soul who has to work on that engine. With as complicated as it is, before even considering the 2 turbos, those things are going to be hugely unreliable.

>>16376596
How is it more complicated than any other v6?

Do you have any objection to a van/bus or are you dead set on a SUV? There are a lot of older vans and ambulances and school buses (small kind) that have the old school 7.3L diesels in them. Torque for days, hella reliable, and cheap as fuck. My buddy literally uses an ambulance to tow his motorhome/trailer thing along with 4 motorcycles

quad cab Ram or Tundra

>>16376252
My only problem with the ambulance/bus idea is because I'm towing race boats I end up at yachtclubs quite often and when your around those places appearance is actually somewhat important... Would be a bit funny to roll up with the lights flashing though.

Probably your mother. Only thing is although she's huge, her interior is very tight.

i mean like the ac and heat etc

do these things have a lot of problems? how much would you pay for one?

the black car is like 10 miles from me so im tempted

pls respond

Look online and figure out which is the inlet and outlet for the heater core from the engine bay side of the fire wall.
Drain the coolant.
Disconnect the hoses.
Shove a 3/4"hose adapter for a hose into the outlet hose.
Slowly, SLOWLY, run water backwards through the core until it's clean.

This works as long as there isn't a leak in the core.

Don't be a pussy, take that dash apart and replace the core.

>>16375471
the problem is the inlet and outlet hoses for my cars heater core are made out of brittle plastic and they love to break when theyre handled

>>16375342
If you are willing to do the timing belt why aren't you willing to take the valve cover off?

>>16375350
Because I don't want to buy two sets of gaskets if I don't have to.

That Saab the car you're working on?

Saab 93 2005

>>16375660
I drive an 05 9-3 aero. It starts doing wonky shit when the battery is at low capacity like dash lights staying on all night, locks not working in unison. Take your car to a pets store and get the battery tested. If it's low on CCA replace your battery and it may solve your problem. If car won't start take out battery and walk ur ass to the store to have it tested :)

>>16374282
No. Any mods and you'll look like a nigger.

>>16374282
love it, but please keep it clean, maybe blacked out grill or chrome?

>>16374282
Looks nice, are they any good? They still have the Northstar engine right?
