I want the most luxurious, and newest car I can find for around 10k.
Was looking at some Lincoln mkz but figured I'd look at other things. Don't want a manual, want something that is incredibly comfy and has creature comforts like heated seats, good infotainment center, and probably awd.

Are you on a strict budget? There are some older BMW or Mercedes luxury grade cars, but the cost in maintenance is going to be expensive when shit breaks. At least with the Lincoln mkz you know that parts are going to be well within reason.

Money isn't a problem, I just have 10k saved up in bulk atm. I make about 55-60k a year.

This isn't even worthy of being a /pol/ slide thread, reevaluate your life.

heh

The reason this happened is because
The axis was disarmed and the only heavy industry were vehicles and not weaponry or space tech.
Meanwhile America and Soviet Union were jerking each other off to see who's space dick is bigger.
France and Britain used to have good cars but they kinda fell off.

Kys, color names are the best. Also some cars have multiple shades of a color so listing exactly which one it is can be helpful.

They're decent. It's the awkward transition between the MK-II and MK-IV, meaning it really looks like an MK-II, but way too rounded and lacking the retro-style of it, while also lacking the modern style of MK-IV.
Engines are good and with little maintenance they will last and serve you long enough.
If you want it go for it, there is nothing wrong with the car, although I preffer the second generation best.

why aren't pushrods used in relevant professional racing series if they're supposedly superior to ohc??????

ohv is more effective at saving space while ohc is better for fine tuning the engine mapping, which allows better efficiency. but it doesn't matter if your car is lighter if you're racing in a series because the officials add ballast to make it competitive.

>>17889458
but ohc weighs less.

Vehicles are inanimate objects. Ships have names because they are communities. If you refer to your car, bike or even boat that doesn't require a crew as if it were alive you're a colossal faggot and your emotional attachment to that hunk of metal and plastic is holding you back.

Any tips for a nervous new driver?
I have the mechanisms of the car down, never stall, but find myself fucking up when I'm out on the road and cant grasp a lot of things.
>Don't know what to do when coming to a brake, especially if there's a chance it might not be a red light
>Dont know what stop light is mine
>Don't know how to find my road position, always too close or far away from kerb
>Forget who has right of way on roundabouts
>Always too fast or too slow, dont know how to be in the right speed
>Don't know 90% of road signs
I really want and need to drive, but I'm starting to think I'm too stupid and it's putting me off actually going out and practicing.

Is the Toyota Tacoma 4cyl just as reliable as the Ranger 4cyl? Can I expect to take this thing past 250k?+

I can't tell if this is bait
There's nothing fun with hairpin turns. When I drive through roads wih plenty of hairpin turns, I'm not thinking about Deja Vu, Running in the 90s or any of them cheesy eurobeat songs.I'm thinking about accidents, cost cutting measures (because the government is too cheap to make a tunnel or something), hicks who live in some forsaken boonies and the only reason why the road is there in the first place is because the government is considerate enouh to build one as a social responsibility project

>too cheap to make a tunnel
in most places tunnels are impractical because the purpose of those roads is usually to get to the top of the mountain not just go through it.
Also fuck off, if you're not drifting throughout the entire run you're a loser.

How do you tune a car for more power?

I imagine there are some bolts on the engine that you have to tighten and you gain 3 HP per bolt you tighten.

With an OBD2 you can get a handheld tuner (Diablo or SCT for example) download their software, find a speed shop that makes email tunes, pay them to email you the file, load the file on your tuner, plug it into your car and load it up, pray as you start it up.

Hello guys
I'm want to buy my first car. What do you think of the Toyota Celica. here in Germany i could get a used one with about 100000 km for about 4000 Euros. is it a good first car. is it a good car at all?
What would you recommend for a first car otherwise
thanks
