Just got word, my beloved VW is for all intents and purposes dead, repair will cost $3000+ on a car I spent barely 5k for. Previous owner was a fucking dipshit, put the wrong kind of coolant and I was a dumbass and didn't think to check, now my water pump is dead, my head has partially seized, and the timing belt which I replaced less than 20k miles ago is already FUBAR.
There should be a special license to own German cars that disallows people from going to fucking Jiffy Lube.
k
should have bought a corolla

It's your fault for not checking the car.

Shut the fuck up

I like his videos but the audio in them pisses me off. The talking is always so quiet in comparison to everything else.
Thinking about getting a Mazda Mazda3 hatch. Does anyone have any experience with the newer model? Anything I should worry about?
>>15484747
Nothing. Just fucking buy it you retard. Why would you need validation from anonymous fucktards here?
Just fuck off and get it
It looks like a fat shoe.

Basically they are japans vanilla car maker.
Hi /o/
I am in the market for a new car and I want something that has a good tuner potential. I have been looking into the gti and I'm sort of leaning towards that. Other options include the new wrx, and the focus st. But I really enjoy the interior of the gti more than the wrx and the St is pretty slow even though it looks great.
BTW my budget is <30k
Your honest thoughts on the NEW VW GTI?
>pic related. I want a white 4 door 6 speed
>gti
>4 door
hahahaha
why don't you look for a 335i? those have as much tunability.. jb4 tune easily takes it up to 400hp, and its not FWD.
mk6's are okay. I hate the fact you literally can't turn off the traction control without taking out the fuse/relay for it. Then there's the typical vw rubberized finish that will bubble in about a year's time.

What's a real glove I can use?
>>15484592
Disposable nitrile
Deerskin is comfy
just buy cheap shit and throw them away when you're done. gloves aren't made to last forever if you actually use them, just to protect your hands while you do

Is Lincoln finally out of the shitter and starting to re-enter the legitimate luxury segment once more?

IS LINCOLN FINALLY NOT SHIT?
Rhetorical question, they haven't sucked since the new MKX and MKC
>state salts the roads heavily in winter
Is there any way to preserve my car? Or is this shit just going to rust my undercarriage to hell no matter what?
Why are governments who salt roads not cutting every car owner a fucking check?
Maybe you should get a better car
buy a winter beater and put your nice car in storage all winter
Undercarriage coating, clean the damn thing. Modern cars are usually very rusty resistant, I've seen someone not clean their car for a couple years and the result underneath was just spots of surface rust.
I know nothing about Australian automotives. What are the best original Australian cars? Name as many as you'd like.
1970 Holden Torana. Only 3 produced before GM said no to an all Australian car.
>>15483832
Ford Falcons, Holden Commodores, Toranas, Chrysler Valiants and Valiant Chargers.
We mucked about a fair bit with straight sixes.
Holden, HSV, FPV, Bolwell, Elfin, Devaux, Giocattolo.
What's /o/'s opinion of the Honda Fit?
Its a shitbox that's good at what it was designed to do.
Nice interior too. is that hole hanging off the passenger-side dash a cup holder?
Early model year Honda Fit's suffered from leaking in the rain, and shoddy construction. The revised models are much better.
>>15483777
Yeah, apparently the Fit has like ten cupholders.
The pic is the interior of a 2012 Fit Sport I'll be seeing on Saturday. I just noticed the stain on the passenger floor mat, but it looks good otherwise.
Find me a car for under $200 within 100mi of Houston and I'll buy that fucker. And turn it into something respectable.
