Use your ears

This.

You will naturally develop a sense for when to shit.


5 speed without a tach. I'm guessing Chevy Cavalier or Toyota Corolla?

>>14810037

Shift at 20-40-60-70/80 km/h

Try shifting at lower speeds if driving straight ahead or downhill

The footplay will come within a couple of days

Vw kombi

>>14818095
Ford E-350

Would rather drive a neon than a cvpi.
You're a terrible friend btw

Not really unless it was a Prius c. That's about what they cost and you can make a decent living as an uber or a lyft driver with one

>>14817866
Friends don't let friends finance Priuses. This is partially your fault, you should have made him buy a $5000 Corolla/civic

slav squat in front of it and take a selfie

>is actually a parking brake lever
>not seeing this before you posted

It's called Handbrake you penis.

>>14816336
modern turbos on modern engines already spool just fine. Go drive a new M3

>>14816336
I wonder just how many amps have to be running to that thing as 12v to make it effective. I was under the impression that a good electric fan was about the max limits of a passenger car 12 volt system.

>>14816366
>implying they're still maxing out at 12v

there are lots of cars that already have 48v board electricity

I wasnt born in the early 80s

Fix it to running condition and drive it until the wheels fall off

>>14812211
Can't just drive anything that runs on the road in yurop.

>>14812211
Will it be as reliable? Idk how good you can fix these things but I imagine that a crash will put a lot of stress and wear on all parts

1 doesnt look like an old shitty kit car

the other uses a V6 that is better than the V8s the old ones used

those are problems to /o/ apparently

One is a hybrid abomination that does not deserve the name.

The other an actual carefully engineered modern supper car

The Ford gt is great and all but it's very expensive. You can get a Ferrari for less.

Good car

Absolute shit
Having said all this.
Buy a 90s corolla

>The time machine would not be a DeLorean, but a 1997 Plymouth Prowler
hmm...
>both failed, low-volume RWD sports cars
>both have been derided as underpowered with factory V6 engines (even if the Plymouth had almost double the power of the DeLorean)
>both featured iconic exotic styling for their times that has not been seen before or since.

I can see that actually...

Marty would be female
Doc would be female
Whole thing would be narrated because nobody can pay attention for that long anymore without thinking that even the act of watching is work
Biff would still be male
All time travel parts would be poorly rendered CG with way too many nintendo tier cartoon animations
Einstein would be a cat
Doc having sent him first through time without knowing for sure what would happen would be heralded as animal abuse by online newspapers
The time machine would only need to go up to 50 as to not break local speed laws and keep in mind that you also need to think fourth dimensionally and not break the speed laws of where you're going back to

Marty would be a Subaru-driving lesbian named Marcia.

Are you buying or selling?

Unless they're actively trying to get rid of the car I.e. back lot special your going to end up paying more to a dealership than to a private party unless the private party is also truly a "don't really need to sell" type. Dealerships have the space and float to let you walk away and they have to make a decent profit to maintain that float. However of you do walk away and leave a deal that's actually acceptable for both parties a dealership will call you back. If you tell them you're going to go look at a similar car somewhere else they may not even let you walk away. These are good tips but you still well end up paying a certain premium just because it's sitting at a dealership (unless they think it's shit in which case they may practically give it to you)

Avoid the delgroid.
