I'm looking to design a spaceship that is reminiscent of a supercar. Show me cars to inspire that idea. Pic somewhat related, I didn't believe at first It was a sketch of a 50s concept Ford.

why not restore it to it's stock nature the way the engineers intended. These cars werent meant to go fast, They were meant for long road trips, and ot cruise around in style after dropping your kids off at school and picking up your double double from timmies

Your car may be way out of alignment but I think you wouldnt see numbers that low from just that effect.
>>
check alignment, tire wear, and tire pressure
Also make sure the parking brake isnt on
>>
what year? If its close to 100k miles you probably need to clean the throttle body and change plugs.
You know, basic maintenance shit.

Thinking of getting the 2016 impreza sport. It's damn well equipped than even more than other japanese car makes of the same type and price. Plus the 4WD system will properly help with the crazy ass canadian winters.
Anyone have earlier versions of the normal impreza and have any recommendations or comments?
Also why is it so hard to find pictures of 2016 cars? Even the dealer pamphlet is mostly CG pictures of the cars.

I've got a Honda CB750C I'd like to turn into a Bosozoku "inspired" bike. Trouble is, where the hell do you find the fairings? I was told by a friend that a lot of them are just standard fairings that are mounted way high up, but another said that all of them, without fail, are custom creations. I feel the answer lies somewhere in the middle. Anyone here into these bikes?

I might be moving from Alberta to Ontario soon. My question is how long do I have before I HAVE to register my vehicle anew in Ontario. I ask because ill be low on available funds to do this for a while and it sounds like a pain in the ass getting it inspected and all. Please help a brother out ive looked everywhere on the internet for an answer to this question but havnt found much.

Drivers license is 60 days, vehicle registration is 30 days. Watch out, you will need a safety inspection too and Ontario just made it a lot tougher. My sisters boyfriend had to go through this because he from from Quebec to Ontario. The cost of getting his 2001 Buick up to snuff was more than the car was worth, he also wasn't able to afford the insurance (still a student) and he ended up scrapping it. What car are you trying to bring in?

2009 Dodge ram. Fuck. thats exactly what im scared of. I mean its in good condition from what I can tell but theres a crack in the windshield which i already know will have to get replaced which is a couple hundred bucks. Can I just say ive been visiting?
>>
I don't know about the time but you will have to go to a Canadian tire for a Drive Clean test (emissions test) and a vehicle safety. At my crappy tire it's $130 and like anon said it's a pain now, brakes have to measured, zero play whatsoever on tie rods and ball joints, etc.
E-Test is $30 plus tax but if you fail say due to an evaporative system leak the max you will pay is $450 including diagnostics for what's called a conditional pass. If the issue can be fixed for less you'll be charged for that amount, if you need a new $1200 catalytic convertor you'll just pay for whatever can be fixed to help reduce emissions. And the cat can be left alone until you sell the vehicle which will require all emissions issues to be fixed.
*this is usually the process for a plate renewal I'm not sure about out of province. This every 2 years for cars 7 model years and older.(2009 and older)

He thinks letting the car change gears for you counts as driving.

Yes and then ship it up to the states for me because I've been hunting for that exact fucking car for ages now at a price that low. They're reliable as hell with a non turbo engine and quite cozy. Don't expect anything close to fast though.
1. Go to your local craigslist/kijiji/gumtree/whatever
2. search "tasteful mods"
3. post best(worst) results.

2017 E-Class from Benz costs $54,000 MSRP,
4matic at $56k.
With options that are REQUIRED, it rounds up to around 65k. If you want the maximum premium feel, it costs 76k.
So, /o/, try to defend it.
