Meh.
Electronics will go wrong, although the 2.slow is a solid engine. Underpowered, but solid.

I have a 2001 VR6 Sedan. I would not recommend any other engine for those cars. Just personal preference, I'm not a fan of 4 cylinder engines.

hey /o/. I want a "new" car, $7000 or less. I'm a college student. I can walk to school, so I don't need to drive to school every day. I want something fun (definitely manual). I have no problem getting routine maintenance/repairs, but I don't want a car that will randomly leave me stranded. What should I be looking for?

Sorry for such a vague post, I'm just not sure what I should be looking for

Get an Rx7
Or an RX8 if you want something newer
It's 100% what I would have if I didn't commute 5 days a week.

Maintain it in your off time, it'll treat you fine and you'll be a loud obnoxious asshole with a cool car.

>3 seats
please tell me this is just a meme
That front is so long.
I feel like this car would be too long, not wide enough for stability reasons and it is way to thin to corner properly. Cool design tho, I just don't see the point of a 3 seater, or what it would provide that a 2+2 seat car would not.

It looks the same from 2 months back. I think it looks good.

You see how wide and short other Lamborghinis/supercars are? It is for cornering purposes and for stability.

Remember when supercars didn't just require money to own, but also skill and a love for driving?

Aston Martin remembers.

I don't think that is a "Super car" in fact, Aston usually only makes "GT" cars with the exception of the One77.

A supercar no matter what requires a lot of money to own. Some are driver's cars, some aren't. Also yes the v12 vantage s is great. I like the 911R a little bit more though

Why do you guys hate on Korean cars? It isn't 2002 anymore. It's the current year. Gooks have come a long way.

So, it's another thread for us on our little slightly backwards, but pretty magical island.

This weekend we're hitting the dragstrip and camping and getting up to no good adventures with cars, beer and dodgy barbecue and takeaway. Want to know more? Want to come along? THEN GET YOURSELF SIGNED UP IN THIS SPREADSHEET https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13HXG2cQcV-eVX9RxBaCP0vMdbeFoTepw2RxqT6TQoKA/edit#gid=0

Also, general discussion and stuff can go in here.

Post burner emails to get added to the Slack.

There's a reason they don't sell it there, just like they don't sell Holden utes. It's too much of a threat to local alternatives, and Americans need a v8 and a km of bed space to carry groceries.

A bit of this.
Very few people here are what you'd call "well off", but I would think that the folks on /o/ are generally a bit older, have a somewhat stable job and prioritize better than boards like /r9k/ and /v/
