>this was a 50k top of the line interior in 2004
It's just so fucking plain and boring.
>>15319750
for a moment I thought that was a buick lucern, the interior looks almost exactly the same as my grandfather's 2006 model
>Audi
>there are unironically people who pay top dollar for a VW in a suit
>>15319768
I mean, it serves it's purpose. Everything still works, and it's comfortable.
I was just expecting a bit more for so much money at the time, especially since it's a German"luxury" car.
Why doesn't Nascar rin more road courses? It's unwatchable aside from the road races, and I don't get it.
What would you implement to make it more interesting/enjoyable to watch?
Personally I think expanding beyond N/A V8's would be a great start.
It's the American version of horse racing
:/
...wut?
Ramps and nos powerups
Louder exhaust
This is my girlfriends car. It is a 2002 Mitsubishi Diamante. This is her stock rotor along with her stock brake pads.
As you can see one of her studs has come loose so I am attemtping to replace it. Sadly upon further inspection one of her brake pads has ruined the back of her rotor. Well since I have to remove it anyway no big deal right?
Well except for the fact its the STOCK fucking 2002 rotoe and has completly corroded itself with the hub assembly and I cant get it off for the life of me.
Any ideas? I've completly drenched the back of the rotor were it meets the hub with liquid wrench and have pulled, hit, twisted but nothing will work.
Parking brake is disengaged, traditionally some rotors have threaded holes to but bokts through to push the rotor off but nope not this one.

Heat it up and whack harder
>>15319577
Soak the front where the hub is, right in the middle.
Also, get a bigger hammer.
5lb sledge hammer and beat the fucking shit out of it.
How good is this car? Thinking about buying a 09 exl
>>15319485
Boring, pigfat shitbox. The interior also went to shit around 08; would recommend looking at a Mazda3 if you just want an econobox.
>>15319485
Good all around car, reliable, v6 has good power so you blow away this fag>>15319505 in his mazda.
>>15319485
I have a 2012 EX-L coupe with the V6.
>Pros
>Comfy
>sporty enough to be fun
>Light for how big and spacious it is
>Reliable
>Honda simplicity
>Easy to work on
>rated for 29 mpg highway but gets higher in real world because VCM
>Looks pretty sexy imo
>V6 has good power
Coupe gets the 5 speed auto with paddles and shifts fast enough in manual mode when you want it
>can get it with 6 speed manual if you're lucky
>Cons
>Some say the V6 makes it nose heavy, I haven't noticed really
>Suspension in coupe can be a bit hard because sportier settings than sedan
>Bluetooth for calls and contacts but not for music
>USB will charge modern phones but doesn't allow music from anything other than old iPod classics
>No instant or avg mpg computer unless you get the navigation which isn't worth it (kinda happy I didn't get the navigation)
All in all would definitely reccomend OP

hey guys, aussie here. i'm thinking of picking up a toyota 86 as my first car. Is this a good idea? Currently on full license and can only drive auto. I was thinking of getting manual but i don't wanna fuck the clutch from learning to drive properly in it.
What do you guys reckon? Was tossing up on this or just going for something like a camry cause it seemed like a good all rounder car and i've only driven them before.
for the record i know fuck all about cars

how much is a unregisteredable GTR 32 worth?
In what country?
If Burger, might make for a good banzai runner. Dump a small fortune into it, rig up something to kill the taillights and troll the highways for patrolmen to mess with.
>>15318038
australia
>>15318041
Worth significantly less than a registerable one. It could be a good track car or you could be like these heroes.
