Curved it going 25 Mph (35ish kmh).
Will it be safe to get repaired?

So I just got the fucking insane idea to build a custom digital instrument cluster using an Arduino, some LEDs and some display bits. I just don't have a car to do this for.
So I ask you, /o/, which car do you think desperately needed a digidash but never got the option?

Got into a car wreck and was issued a ticket for wreckless driving. The wreck may have been my fault but I don't agree with the charge. Any tips on defending?

That'll get you a lot of bus tickets and not much else.
Save some money and then start looking for a car.

Hey H/o/!
What will your next daily driver car be (realistic purchase/target):
I currently have a 2010 Impreza Sedan base model. Definitely fun in winter (compared to my civic), but I'd love a hatchback for my next car while keeping AWD, but FWD is not out of the option. What do you guys think of the focus?

E92 335i probably. Seems to have everything I want in a car sans some less-than-stellar handling (that and the entire used market is AWD for some reason) however I have a Miata as a second car so that's not a big deal.

Could be cool if they weren't so dramatized and more technical but the American public is too retarded for that. I saw the episode of f&l where they fired that guy. They are terrible actors, I called it that they were getting a spin off. Is it any good? This is the first I've heard of it.

Why do car transmissions break so frequently? I've put 150,000 miles on two different motorcycles and have never EVER had an issue with the transmission.

They take much more stress from cars having more hp and torque. also >automatics
>>
>>15720343
And that brings me to my next point. Aren't automatic transmissions supposed to shift flawlessly therefore eliminating any additional wear to the transmission?
>>
>>15720353
In the best of worlds. But flooring from standstill in a car with auto puts huge stress on all components in the gearbox.
