In an age of OLED, 2017 model cars still have physical needles in the dash, and the one's that do have a screen have simulated needles.

And they wonder why millenials aren't buying cars.

Well the mini meet went well, came to a few decisions and it went smoothly without any arguments. Doing these face to face is so much better. So now instead of one meet, there will be two meets, a day cruise and a Night run/cruise.

onto.. THE NEWS:

- Night meet details can be found >>15541858

- Dagumi updated the wiki, under appreciated work. >>15527116

- Coffee and Cars on Saturday >>15552740

- Friday mini meet was banter and chill >>15532383

- The ultimate question >>15532799

- Butthurticus finally gets to attend a meet. >>15542574

- Even though we are all poorfags, but maybe we can fund this project for Dagumi and build this car together. It will be a great project car, something that all us can feel good about.

- Made videos of hightlights and the cruise back. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bx6A4wA-U4A & https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ppd_fWujsYA&feature=youtu.be

Well that's it for now!

>FORD has come under fire from road safety experts after releasing a car with a Fast and Furious style “drift” mode that enables unskilled drivers to “drive like hooligan” using the car’s sophisticated electronics systems.

Is this a good car for a college student living out on his own?

I have a girlfriend but no kids or friends since we just moved to a new state. Ive done an exhaustive amount of research into these cars, including their older counterparts and competitors, and they're everything I want and need.

tl;dr Is there a good reason to NOT buy one of these?

Have you ever raced someone off the lights? Challenged someone to a highway pull? Chased them through the touge? Raced them through the streets? Is the thrill worth the risks?

Shamefully copied from legendary VINbro's threads

Old thread will unfortunately autosage while I'm asleep.
Old thread here - >>15472700

>I am able to run US/Canadian VINs (anything with a fitting VIN; bikes, cars and so on) and US plates. For plates the same rules apply as VINs; 1981 or newer, US registered, and the plate and state are needed. Plates do work most of the time, but VINs are more reliable.
>Please remove hyphens (dashes) from VINs/plates - unless they happen to be part of a vanity plate. This makes copying and pasting easier.
>I can only run vehicles in/originally in the USA/Canada. If they've been exported from the USA/Canada, a report with their time here will be available. Not yet sure about imported cars.
>Vehicles need to be of the 1981 model year or newer. That's when standardized VINs began. Anything older simply cannot be run for a report.
>There are never I(i), O(o), nor Q(q) in VINs. This is to avoid confusion with 1 and 0. So if you are unsure, it is always 1 or 0 (not the case for classic cars, but they cannot be run anyway).
>VINs must be 17 characters exactly. No more, no less.
>If you want the PDF-file you can open the page source (F12) and search "amazonaws", copy the whole link and put it in your browser. This should allow you to download the PDF. If its not working send me an email at [email protected]. Please leave a reply if you do so

They all seem to fall apart or light up like fireworks. Do any supercars actually last?

Jalapeño claims (rightfully) that BMW makes craptastic engines.
