So I really want to get a BRZ or the new GT86. Seriously, one of the best looking cars out there. Small problem: my wife doesn't think they're safe and she's doesn't want me driving her son around in it.
Is this car a deathtrap? Two of my friends have them, and the performance is spectacular even stock, and I really want to join the club, so to speak.
Please advise and thanks.
need help. plz.
Google it. 5*s get gud tire's and don't kick the clutch

First for I <3 dickscord where dick tall is so good
if I run over traffic cones and it broke, do I need to pay for the damage? just hit one with my side mirror the other day. those tall narrow ones
>>15184831
Were you seen? Can they prove it was you?
Do you drive a reliable car?
>>15184416
Yes.
A Honda.
I never get how Acura has such a low reliability rating even though it is the "luxury" auto division for Honda. In all seriousness, fuck Acura these days. I hope it crash and burn because of their stupid decision over the years.
>>15184416
I call bullshit on this american shitboxes aren't on the very bottom
>>15187325
Because this isn't a real reliability index, it's a complain about stupid shit index
I'm sure this is the 25th thread on the topic, but I'm 2 min in and reruns of South Park are on the other channel. Should I keep watching the New Top Gearâ„¢?
Nvm, dude who isn't Joey just said the C7 looks better than snek. Back to South Park
>tfw no bbc america channel
>tfw my flatscreen is probably twice as old as yours and can only do 720p

God mode during the summer when i go out to the beach.

I'm just imagining a week long honeymoon romp with that sexy little minx.
Why hasn't texting and driving become a punishable offense everywhere?
It is in first world countries.
>>15183285
Because of MUH RIGHTS morons. You know, the "seatbelt laws are bad" and "we should let decrepit old people drive" and types
>people follow these laws
>i don't know how to drive stick
i live in NYC so everybody drives auto and says manual is inconvenient for city driving/stop and go traffic
>i dont know how to fix a car
even tho i worked at a dealership for 4yrs i don't know how to fix a car. while i can do basic repairs and maintenece work my old place never gave me a chance to actually fix a car. all i did was easy shit that required no skill.
>>15180039
>i live in NYC so everybody drives auto and says manual is inconvenient for city driving/stop and go traffic
tell them they're little bitches
my commute consists of taking the bqe for 40 minutes a day during rush hour
just keep the car in first and crawl it not big deal
>I learned stick a week ago and i know how to downshift, Rev match and heel toe but i still stall my car in stop lights and i have troubles starting up hill.
>I don't know how to change my car's spark plugs
Fuck you ford, it was way easier to change them in the previous 4.0 engine than this 3.7 one.
>I always start in second gear whenever i can because of the fear of stalling in 1st.
3 31 gears for a noob.
>>15180074
Dude starting in first is easier than starting in second. thats probably why you keep stalling it
I want to get an FR-S but my wife won't let me. Help me convince her /o/

Get a brz instead.

>tfw I get my STi straight piped
Who here has unlocked their rumble?
>shitty 4cyl trying to imitate the sound of a v6
>>15187146
>Implying Subarus aren't the best sounding 4 bangers
>Implying a V6 isn't a poor persons V8
>>15187149
That's the point. At it's best, a 4cyl still only sounds like a famously second-string engine.
You can only post itt if your car manufacturer has won Le mans

Name a rotary that is used in monster trucks
you have 12k. Which of these used cars do you buy ?
A)An S4
B)An 05-08 Mustang GT
(Because we all know 00-04 mustangs are complete shit)
C)a C5 vette
D)WS6
Explain your answer
WS6; highest trim level and most likely to maintain/appreciate in value
s4 but really a c5
>>15185101
C5 vette if 12k is enough for a clean one.
Only ever driven automatic
Should my next car (mustang) be manual?
Is it tedious to drive manual? Im a guy who kinda gets a lot of fatigue so i wanna know if its annoying
Is it more fun driving manual?
For the millionth time.
No, it isn't tedious. You forget you're even driving a manual when commuting.
Yes, it's fun.
>Im a guy who kinda gets a lot of fatigue
The fuck does that mean?
>>15182968
>Yes, it is tedious. You won't forget you're driving a manual when commuting.
>It's not as much fun as you think it is.
FTFY
>stall in traffic
Stop making these threads over and over again.

Why is everything cooler in japan?
How do I not be such a stupid fanboy.
>>15181951
you don't think these are cool?

What, a knife? Are you serious? Don't be so lame.
Well for starters you can stop jerking off to cartoon girls and sleeping with a body pillow
A thread for our beloved econobox pocket rockets. Talk experiences, ask for advice and questions and generally shitpost about the Fiesta ST.
>New Daily Edition
What did you drive before your hot hatch?
>What is a "Hot Hatch"?
A Hot Hatch is a manufacturer produced, performance oriented variant of a standard hatchback, designed for improved handling, increased top speed, acceleration and generally enhance the driving experience.
>Are all Hot Hatches FWD?
No. Whilst most Hot Hatches are FWD, some are AWD or even RWD.
>Isn't FWD shit?
No. Just because you can't get the arse out by stamping on the accelerator doesn't mean you can't have fun.
>Aren't Hot Hatches just for Europoors?
No; with the launch of the Fiesta and Focus ST to joining the MS3 and Abarth in the US, it seems like the Hot Hatch is beginning to take off on the other side of the Atlantic, but Europoors definitely have more choice.
>Is the Fiesta ST actually good?
The Fiesta ST is one of the best small hot hatches on offer at the minute; so yeah they're pretty good.
Renault used to make the best hit hatches. Let's hope that Clio RS16 is a step in the right direction
>>15181422
What's the deal with the Punto? I swear there wasn't a hot mk2.
One day I'll save the pasta.
