Campus police tend to be bigger dicks than regular police and can have your car impounded at their discretion for any offense real or imagined.

Can we discuss this shit for a second? What the fuck is goin on at Lexus

Why are they trying to make all their cars look like they were designed/engineered by the Protoss? We are fuckin TERRANS

Also, almost none of their cars come with a manual transmission anymore

Lexus was my favourite brand but theyre starting to lose me

Welcome to real estate where you have "looky loos". They have no intention of buying, but just go around visiting houses out of curiousity. You have that in the car world too. They just want free test drives in different cars. That's how they pass their time with their "car hobby".

If you want a fast track ready coupé that isn't a miata then it's a good car. Far cheaper than the next step up for sure

Not perfect, no car is.
There's a huge aftermarket, decent reliability, wonderful handling

Only downside is price and part prices but hay its a miata that isnt fucking gay and actually has the performance to back it up.

I'd say go for it if i absolutely had the chance to get one i would in a split second.

Oh and its a oldschool honda so you get

Only thing i could fault them for is not making a factory version with a widdle turbo or a 4 door version just to be a bit different but still i really hope they make a new one

It's mother fucking Friday and it begins one of the best stages in the world championship, Germany. Narrow, winding roads through vineyards on different types of tarmac/asphalt and almost as many hairpins as Monte Carlo.

They've started running SS1 and SS2.

>2006 Ford Ranger Ranger XLT
>4wd and automatic
>50k miles
>Ford dealer wants $11k

It seems like a very low price compared to what the others were selling for which leads me to always believe there must be something wrong with it.

I don't know shit about vehicles so how do I ask "what's the catch?" without being autistic about it?

What generally goes wrong in a Ranger?

Fucking over priced. Just get an F150 if you want to spend that kind of money. Rangers after 1994 are shit. Or as the other poster said, a colorado but not a 06, 08 minimum.

We don't need anymore cancer here in Ohio m8

Been building a track car for the past year. It's getting near to where I want it to be. I want to keep it street legal, as it's definitely fun on the streets, but it's primarily going to be my track toy these days. I got a Ford Expedition to tow it to track days now too (just gotta find a trailer before I do Laguna Seca again in Oct). Engine and exhaust are 100% stock because Laguna Seca are faggots and have 90dB noise restriction. Stock C5 Z06 Ti exhaust was clocked at 89.5dB last I went.

>Upgraded:

>AP Racing braking system (6 pot front, 4 pot rear, new MC)

>APR CF splitter and wing
>CF sideskirts
>18x9.5/19x11" wheels
>275mm front, 325mm rear Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires
>-1.0deg camber

And what I'm working on doing right now:

>Future upgrades:
>
>Poly bushings
>Single adjustable Pfadt coilovers (remove composite leaf springs finally)
>Pfadt transaxle mount/brace
>Direct-to-hub brake cooling setup
>New racing hubs
>Sparco quick release suede steering wheel setup
>Toyo Proxes R888 tires
>-2.5deg camber

I think I might upgrade the cooling system to a dedicated alum radiator and a dedicated racing oil radiator. I'm getting 250F oil temps on track even with my upgraded setup. That's not good running 5w-30 oil the mfg recommends. I think I'm going to try water wetter and 1:3 mix ratio of coolant to water.

Also, I'm worried about overheating my transaxle. Gear oil came out burnt before from my diff. They sell tranny/diff cooling kits for about $1200.

Should I buy this car for $400?

1962 Plymouth Valiant

My mom's landlord currently owns it but my mom is moving soon and he wants to get the car off the property. It did belong to the previous tenant but he died a couple years ago. Previous tenant found it in some old ladies shed with about 50k miles on it, drove it here from out of state, and let it sit until he died, which is when my mom started renting the house. The title has been transferred to the landlord and is clean, the only issue is the current state of the car. It does not currently run so I will probably have to put a little work to get it running and the floor pans are pretty rusty but other than that the interior is perfect and the entire car is 100% stock.

How do I change the brake fluid?
28 posts and 2 images submitted.
>>
>>15653002
You drain it and fill it, apparently.
>>
>>15653002 open the rear pass side brake bleeder power bleed or pump all the fluid out with the pedal. fill the brake fluid reservoir and bleed all brakes normally until only fresh fluid comes out. fill the reservoir.
>>
>>15653002
>>15653024
Just make sure that there's no air in the system after you fill it again.
There are two things you don't want in your brake lines: air (or any compressable gas) and water (brake fluid will easily get heated up to over 100 degrees Celsius and water tends to turn into steam then... which is bad, since it's a compressable gas).

To cut a long story short, I've recently sold a business for £4.3m (net of taxes) and I'd like to buy a nice car.

I can easily afford a nice new Continental GT, but I'm somewhat concerned about what people will think about it. Will I just look like someone who can't afford a Rolls Royce Wraith?

I can buy either (though obviously the Rolls would put a rather larger dent in my bank balance) and to be perfectly honest I personally prefer the look of the Bentley, but will people think I'm only a doctor or a lawyer or something if I do?

Cheers lads

I have two friends that praise the E39 3.0 every time we meet. How it handles great, how it's really fast, how it's not that hard to maintain...

How can I roast them and make them realize it's a shitbox?

>>15652860
I own one, it's quite fast, it does handle pretty well, and the parts are really easy to replace in the event they break. That said, parts are expensive compared to American/Japanese cars, and mostly due to the age of e39s at this point, parts will have to be replaced.
