Is Lincoln still considered a luxusury car in USA? Those new ones looks like fuckin shit. Why would anybody buy a ford focus with ugly grill on that price? Is that true lincoln is a dying brand?
>>15655353
Its shit tier nowadays. Town car was the last good car from them. The new navigator only comes with a v6 for a full size suv.
>>15655353
some fords have similar interiors to Lincoln ones, so I'd say it's pretty dead.
>>15655353
Lincolns are like shit tier luxury. Think Lexus ES or Mercedes CLA, but even shittier
Hey/o/
First time on this board because. I know absolutely nothing. How do i into cars
>>15655288
Buy a car. Take it apart.
Put it back together.
If you end up with little to no spare parts, then you are now into cars.
>>15655288
no one else here knows anything either
you'll fit right in
>>15655293
Use Haynes manual and forums when stuck.
>put car into sport mode
>it drives the exact same
What car
>>15655216
2014 jetta 1.8t

>put car into D
car is slow
>step on it, im on the highway now

Honda life.
Any advice to unstick-themselves from snow or mud? I don't want to spend $90 on those tyre attachments.
I now carry around some sticks and kitty litter to help me get unstuck sometimes. Pop it in second gear and slowly release the clutch.
>Snow
Having good ground clearance and snow tires that are NARROWER than your non-winter tires helps a lot.
>mud
scout it on foot beforehand.

My durango on Pirellis do pretty good in snow
Which motoring enthusiast looks most like a gay child rapist meth addict?
Picture extremely related.

subaru wrxfan
is that the super speeders fgt? I hate that fucker
Which would you guys buy? I'm talking 92+ C4, with the LT1 and updated body. Prices for C4 are around $7,000-$8,000. C5 is around $13,000-$14,000. Both with manual transmissions.
I prefer the C4 look better. But the LS1 is hard to pass up. I like the look of the C4 interior better but I'm worried about the quality of it. What do you think?
C5 is basically a direct upgrade
>>15654702
except the c4 has better seats and kinda is just nicer inside.
c5 interior a shit, just like the 996
>>15654702
It is but I'm not sure it's worth double the price. Especially when I am saving for the C4. What will I miss out on?
1000$ stall converter, so tell me why there's fucking bb welds all up inside it, fucking precision industries.
thats a lot of spatter they didnt clean up
how did you see inside it anyway? do they come apart now? i thought they were welded shut
>>15654667
Had to order new Trans, shop took it to get cut and cleaned out, found a bent ring inside and those bbs. But since it was cut open warranty was voided so had to order a new one from somewhere else. Kinda glad cause I didn't want this shit trying to kill my new Trans. There's a ton more all around it. I'll probably spread the word on them for this shit.
>>15654680
those bbs are from flux core. kinda surprised a big shop would not clean that crap up.
that workmanship is mexican bad.
i would be pissed as hell that got through quality control
>buy a 4cyl Volvo
>it takes NINE (9) quarts of oil
Is every German car retarded like this with oil?
>>15654552
Nice.
That's a big oil pan.
>>15654552
german cars are fucking oil guzzlers
it's because they're retarded engineers who can't make a good engine without excessive lubrication
Let the gf drive; immediately in the next 15 minutes doesn't slow down at the intersection and uses the asphalt like 69 grit sandpaper. Mercedes w204 2012. Help me /o/ bros, don't want to buy a new bumper although probably my only solution with my ocd.
sand it, clean it up, touch up paint, and cry
>tfw let my gf drive my car once and she scraped the fuck out the sidewall enough to rip it
>>15654434
racers don't need girlfriends
>>15654434
Damn dude she was hooning to have an intersection do that. Shitcan the girl. She doesn't respect your property which means she definitely doesn't respect you.
Ok /o/
I want a fun car that is also somewhat economical and wont have me in the garage every other week getting it fixed.
Potatofag here, I live in Ireland, so any UKfags/Europoors will probably be able to help a bit more, but Amerifats please feel free to leave your petrolhead wisdom here too.

You didn't specify your taste, so I'll just throw the Gen 3 Seat Ibiza in here. It was available with a 160hp 1.9l diesel engine. A diesel because you wanted something economical. I don't know about the reliability, but I haven't encountered problems with VAG diesel engines yet
>inb4 dieselgateemissionblargh
It's something that's usually not spoken of on here, but 160hp plus the weight of about 1.2 tons stock should be a little fun.
Ok what's your budget?
Hi /o/
I'm currently converting a 1991 SW20 MR2 to all wheel drive, using a cosworth MT75 gearbox, and running the diff upside down.
The engine I'll be using a nissan VQ35, which I will be destroking to 2litres for rally regulations, and will be using a single IHI Turbine.
I'm currently cutting the transmission tunnel, and my angle grinders a peice of shit, does anyone have any tips here? I've got through 6 of these fucking wafer thin discs so far, all they do is snap into peices.
>Pic related, its the tunnel I'm cutting out the car. Its where the fuel tank would normally be but I'll be running one single carbon fibre fuel cell in the passenger footwell.
Whatever happened to this project? Did he ever actually do anything with it?
>>15654356
why awd?
> destroking a vq35 to two litres
wtf why
>>15654356
so ollllllld

>lol enjoy your civic hatch murifats ~ t.honda
What the FUCK is their problem???
Do one with the VW Golf for comparison
>>15654116
not op but here you go.
bear in mind the civic changed segment from a subcompact to a compact in the 90's
>>15654225
Hold up, isn't the 4-door Golf slightly longer than the 2-door?
Why won't cyclists learn to stay out of the fucking way of cars? They sit in the middle of the fucking road to make overtaking them as difficult as possible, then get asshurt when you do finally overtake them, where the fuck is the sense in that?
'Hurr I'm a faggot cyclist if you don't sit behind me doing 15mph I have my menstrual cycle from my prostate I'm a huge faggot'.

Cyclists have equal rights with motorists.
Stay mad
>>15654102
'cyclists have to follow the laws of the road too!!1!'
except when they
>run red lights
>ignore pedestrian crossings
>make illegal turns
>>15654111
Then why cant you do all that? Getting assblasted wont solve anything, stop being a bad drive.
Most cyclists are bros and very fit unlike you
Having neither been on /o/ or wrenched on my car in a while I decided to do a little project and do a full LED swap.
Why did I fall for the wrenching meme all over again?
>Christmas tree plugs
>Different front bulb type than what's on the forums, waste of $20
>Easier to take whole front bumper off and take headlights out to change front bulbs
>Side markers turn out to be sealed units
>Can't get glove box light to work, with incandescent or LED
>Tear headliner trying to get interior dome lights out
>>15654067
Nice 9gag pic fag
well you learned something right?
That you're not good at doing things
>>15654067
>>Tear headliner trying to get interior dome lights out
You should have looked at archived /o/ articles or youtube videos on removing the headliner with interior trim tools made for that purpose.
