At what point did wheels, exhaust, and appearance mods become a "build"? The amount of money people pay for wheels alone can do wonders on an engine or suspension but instead it goes into making slow car look good. How the fuck can someone know how to use rivets for an off-brand bodykit or afford to pay someone else to mount a legit kit and not know basic knowledge of an IC engine?

>PARKING PASS

Ok, any parking authority would have your tag in its database and would find out if you had a pass. If so theyd probably write you a warning for not having your pass.

Thats how it worked at my college at least.

What's /o/'s take on purchasing used hybrids?

Is there any type of planned obsolescence that plagues any one make or model?

Batteries do wear out eventually. 150k+ usually, depending on how it was used. But it's no more expensive to replace than a major engine/trans service costs. Like 1500 for a prius or insight battery.

Volts are goat.
>>
>>14947965
Awesome, my budget can handle that.
>>
>>14947965
Volts are great but really tiny. A prius is a slight compromise in mpg for a huge boost in space.

Am I autistic for absolutely despising visible car underbodies? Most cars have these parts visible or even hanging under the body of the car and it makes the car look cheap and shit.

Why aren't underbodies flush?

Should I get an fully loaded Audi S4 Premium Plus or S5 Premium Plus (missing some features)? Both are $58k.

Should I wait for the 2017 models to come out too?

/o/'s main users are similar to /k/'s. Nice, helpful people.

However, /o/ has a dark side. That dark side is the mass amount of 16 year olds going "I HAVE $12 WHAT CAR DO I GET SHOULD I GET A LAMBO" and one, much worse thing.

Alphonse and Corey. The Kings of shitposting, who can never be stopped.

Why? Because they are mods. Hiroshima will never do anything about it, so we have to suffer.

These cars are such shit. Why does anyone like them?
They handle like shit and understeer into a tree if you drive faster than grandma.
Torque steer into the opposite Lane
They get shit mpg
Pigfat
Underpowered
They look like a 2 door accord.
They are massive shitboxes

It is a 2dr accord. But slim long which makes it better.

It looks good at least. You're right about everything else though, if I wanted a cheap Honda I'd just shut the fuck up and get a Civic.

>>14947256
>understeer
can be dialed out with alignment and a good tires

>pigfat
still lighter and simpler than modern cars

what's /o/'s experience with these things? i haven't seen one in the wild here in ontario and i'm curious if they're reliable or taken care of by the typical owner.

i mean hondas seem to be survivors but does the s2000 carry a distinct belt in that regard?

>>14947077
Lol, where in Ontario are you? I'm from Durham and I personally know 3 s2000 owners, and I see them around often... Just wait till the weather gets a bit nicer and you should see these fairly often.

Pro tip. They are smaller in person than you would expect...

>i'm curious if they're reliable
Despite the high-strung engine, they're pretty bulletproof:

>taken care of by the typical owner.
It's a mix now that AP1s have gotten cheap. Clean examples, especially those used as summer cars, can still be found easily enough and are usually meticulously cared for.
>>
Owned an 2001 AP1 and loved driving it. Amazing handling, good looks, and sounds good for a 4-banger. I know the retainers on these like to crack, a simple fix is just to instal AP2 retainers and keepers. These cars are best left alone from the factory but can be upgraded with ease. The transmissions aren't that strong, nor are the rear ends when you apply boost to the mix. I boosted mine a year into owning it and it changed everything.

>>14947106
The summer cars also cost more

Is there ever a time or it might be more economical to drive in 4th gear than 5th gear? Or 2nd gear instead of 3rd Etc?

I wonder this too What if your cruising 25 Mph in 6th gear would it not be better to go to 2nd or 3rd
