Saab 9-5 or 9-3 preferably. i know the basics but if anyone has done it before or really knows what they're talking about, post it here! (Links are also welcome)
>>16370571
We are not degenerates.
flatbed truck and a winch.
>>16370578
Neither am i, i just don't like paying for nice things.
I drive a 2L |5, it's rated to only do 210km/h, but I've had the needle at 230km/h.
There is explanation? I know there is inaccuracy on the gauges but certainly not 20km/h.
please respond
Do you think manufacturers make the gauge range precisely to the cars top speed? I'd say 99% of cars will never ever go 3/4 of its top speed.
My dad's Jeep CJ7's speedometer goes to 85 but in 4th gear (top) and with the pedal floored, it maxes at 78 mph.
What is the one car that you regret getting rid of?
None. I always improve on my last car since I drive them into the ground.
i shitposted just about enough with it but it's leaving next month
>>16369060
CBA making a new thread
what should I watch out on a rev1 sw20?
I don't mind if the engine blows because there's gonna be a few circulating for cheap.
What are other things? Other than rust and timing belts and hoses from hell?

Does anyone here own an electric car?
I'm thinking of getting one but I'm worried about the maintenance and servicing.
I'm guessing that they're pretty much impossible to fix or service by yourself as they're so complicated.
And I'm worried they will break a lot.
>>16368992
They are a lot like owning a big German luxury car, more reliable than anything from Ford or GM and fine until something goes wrong then it's sell a kidney to fix. Buy new get shot of it in 3 years before the battery is totally fucked and everything will be fine.
>>16368999
Aren't Tesla batteries warrantied for 8 years?

At work right now
Going to try to drive home with my sway bar disconnected because I broke an end link last week and my parts didn't come in the mail in time and try not to die
Since Toyota has sprouted a technical-partnership with BMW starting with the Toyota Supra, there are high chances that BMW could be supplying engines for the next-gen Toyota Corolla by 2018.
Speculated engine's by BMW for the Corolla are :
>1.5L 3cyl
>2.0L 4cyl (likely with a Turbo)
Now there are no news that Toyota will stop producing engines for their Corolla but would be adding the BMW engines to the engine choices.

>You could hear people saying this "Hey mine has a BMW engine and yours a Toyota hahahah" by the year 2019.
What do you think about this plan that could happen?
And to add up it's not said anywhere that what spec of Corolla would get the BMW engine. Whether it's the Asian-European version or the North American one. Or both may.
Weird I wonder why they are doing that
>>16368590
Toyota will see this as a way to improve their sales even more.
$)
Reminder there are people that paid 50k for a Honda
Go drive a RLX hybrid and get back to us how much of an "Accord" it is...
reminder that people paid $60k (105K today) for a midengine Accord
Sounds about right.
I've always liked this car and I'm needing a new car. I told my buddy I was thinking about getting a mustang and he strongly advised I stay far away from these because of tranny issues.
Is he right? This particular one has 90k miles with a 4.0L V6
>>16367730
the 4.0 is an old engine which isn't really all that great, the 3.7 is better, but I don't honestly think I've heard anything about the transmission.
get a manual?
>>16367744
Yeah this one I'm looking at is a standard.
What's the deal with that engine to say it's not great?
I'm no car guy. My buddy knows more than me about this stuff but he's no mechanic.
Could be that he just had a few friends that drove their mustangs like dragsters and that's why they had tranny issues.
I'm sure he was talking about transexuals since only faggots drive v6 Mustangs
Opinions on this?
Do a barrel roll
It's better that it's equipped with the ESP
>>16367454
The badgewhore shitbox
Im betting it has an interior no better than a Fiesta of the same year, just as slow, and just as boring.

Nothing

What used to be German craftsmanship has become a make-work program for Somalis.
???
>>16366437
Mustang a shit
British mustang has less power than the US spec
>>16366437
TG always had weird lap times for some cars.
Also the mustangs sold overseas have subtle differences that probably affect performance

Hey /o/
What does this dash light mean?
It's been on for the last few days.
>>16364527
fog lights?
>>16364527
That's the rpm speedometer
Means you should have bought something other than a vw, you had better get used to a bright yellow light flashing in your face. I owned one for two years and I've never spent more money on anything in my life, a ford pinto that's been in a rear end collision would be more reliable.
On a sidenote, it's your rear fog lights.

Use this site whenever you have a question, volkswagen themselves apparently know just how shit their cars are, so they need to put up a list of all service lights because they're so frequent.
