Have you ever been carless ?
>iv owned a car since i was 16
>25 now
Theres apx 1 billion cars in the world today
>each car company releases a new model for each line per year on the average
Kids that are just turning 16-18 will want a their first car this year
how many cars will there be in 10 years? how many classics will be on the road compared to modern ones?
that means there will be a time that there will probably be a time where your the only person out there that drives your car
or there will be a time where a 92 civic won't exist anymore
>i heard the goverment would destroy cars that were older than 30 years when i was in my teens (this is what i just heard)
>Also i remember when the news use to say petrol will run out in approximately 10 years
this was back in 2005, the news use to push global warming pretty heavy
what happened to these memes? or are they just memes

>prediction
western economies are starting to lag again, muh climate change, dieselgate and broken windows will spur another scrapage scheme when the headline figures go red again. all the cunts who bought diesels because it was incentiveised last decade will now by new leased petrol fucboxes. many decent old cars will suffer and the second hand market will get fucked again because make do and mend doesn't employ people.

Personal transportation will never die outside of ridiculously condensed cities.
Internal combustion will remain the most produced until around 2030 where electric will take 51%, and self driving tech will have been good enough for long enough that a massive chunk of the cars on the road aren't controlled by humans anymore moving towards the majority around 2035-2040.
Only police state shitholes will ban personally driving cars on public roads around 2050-2060.

It's like the Apple products, really. Nobody cares about substance, just the name. With the key difference that this is actually not a pointless product. Though still overly complicated and hipster-y.
The actually good alternative drive cars just didn't have this kind of hype, so they didn't sell as well.

If anything, you should be happy. Electric cars are coming to the masses. Progress has finally been made.

do everything you can to save and buy it ASAP... good chance it will be too expensive in the future.

They are only going to go up in the future for a super clean one. All the broke dick wannabe racers have shit-modded most of them to ruin, pushing up the prices for those owners who kept theirs mostly stock.
Best thing to do is save your pennies for an "ok" one and work on it to make it less shit.

I saw this 2001 mustang on craigslist for $995. This is going to be my first car. Automatic Transmission, 3.8L Engine V6,and 182378 Miles. I called the place and the guy said that the only thing wrong with it is that the air (AC) compressor does not work, and that it does need it's maintenance and alignment. I asked if the motor and transmission were fine, he said that they were and that the car turns on and runs great. I;m just a little iffy by the "maintenance" part. What the hell would that involve? just a tune up I'm guessing? anyways I'm going to make my dad tomorrow so we can have a look at it. Here is some pictures of the car. WHat do you guys think?

Unless you have a large family, work a job that requires you to haul a lot of large tools, or race cars professionally, Honda Civic is probably all you need.
Why do you buy cars that you don't need?

You don't actually need a car to survive.
Why did you buy a car when you didn't need one?

I have a 2002 Honda Accord that's shaking badly especially when it's in gear and the AC is on. What doesn't make sense is that all the motor mounts look good with no cracks, yet I can see it shaking bad, enough to make the steering wheel uncomfortable to hold onto. Could there be any other cause of this besides motor mounts?

What happens to the rpm?

>>14758549
The rubber in the mounts hardens over time. Could be the issue.

THIS, also you could check the A/C pump ball-bearings
What do you guys think of the RF? Will visibility be crap?
Ruins the experience of Miata?

So I'm a sucker for 1980's jap cars (even though I never owned one, I just like them lines) and there's a 1985 Civic selling for US$900, with 100km in it ("grandma car"). Judging by the photos, it looks in mint condition.
Are there any common issues with the engine? I plan to use it as a daily driver. I am kinda handy with a wrench, but I don't know much about common problems with jap cars that are that old
thanks
