Astra with a bodykit. Not great, but not terrible either and offers good value (in yurop at least).

First off....
Do you know ANYTHING about detailing cars with buffers and whatnot?
Not even trying to be a typical demeaning assh/o/le but if have no experience/training in detailing your best to not do it. You can seriously fuck up a cars paint if you don't know what you're doing.
People who do that professionally usually have to spend months if not longer training to get certified to do paint detailing.
Just saying.
Read up on it first.

>>16094002
You'll fuck your paint.

Get a pro to do it once a year for 100$ or less.

>months of training to use a buffer
Fuck off, seriously.


Definitely get a variable speed buffer, keep it medium-low. I haven't had any problem with Dewalt power tools for personal use. Craftsman orbitals are nice.

Use plenty of wax, don't push too hard

Just go to an upholstery shop. They'll have multiple kinds to choose from. Get the kind that's most original.

Rhino liner plus cushy floor mats

>>16093855
I see. Will that compare to the costs shown online? I've set my budget for this at 200$, so the online carpet shops are right there, and they claim to already be molded properly. I'm not obsessed with getting close to the original, just interested in a decent carpet with good noise damping. Thanks

You're the OP, you're used to the D

>>16093608
i initialed your mum with my D in a car once. Hope that helps.

yes.

That was a different lincoln. The blue one was a 79 I sold a couple years ago. This tan brown one is a 76 I picked up to pull the 460 and 9" for my maverick.

There's a ton in asian markets with factory Altezza rear lights that look pretty cool.

I think they're reliable but I'm not 100% sure.

>>16125809
Lincoln is #7 in reliabiliy, almost as reliable as a Lexus

how else am I supposed to give a blowjob in my miata

>>16125599
>miata

you are the bottom, don't lie

I use cruise control all the time. It's nice when feathering the throttle is the difference between the speed limit and 15 over.

Try owning a car first kiddo

Straight piped here

I can understand wanting cats, V8's have a choppy sound without them but I love it

People running straight pipes on public roads should be gassed with their own exhausts.

>>16125250
Depends on the state but largely yes.

Many states don't require you to have a license to register it, just an address and insurance.

P.S.: I have friends who could buy the car for me, so if I can't do that, can I at least get insured for a month?

>>16125262
But where will you get an official American adress from as a tourist?

Pointless shit. As is your thread.
