Yo /o/ I'm rich as fuck which factory condition memecars should I preserve for posterity?

>>14163164
Wouldn't feel right driving something like that. A blue collar 80s hero ought to have a few nicks and scratches by now.

>>14163351
Buy a load of Chinese stuff. Literally no-one else will want to preserve any of it bar the really weird stuff.

You know for a world with limited amounts of gasoline they sure drove around alot in mad max fury road

Also im sure they just salvage alot ofvtheir car parts

>>14163121
I can understand that they drill for new oil/raid old giantfuck stockpiles. The 2nd movie even revolves around an oil pump encampment.

What i just can't stomach is these cars eat up this much fucking punishment with no universal joint failures? No need for engine rebuilds? No need for any type of precision part replacements?

>STI is more reliable
Nah not really
muh piston rings

Get the EvoX, at least it's a 2.2 and has better TECHNOLOGY than the STI because of mivec and lolnota15yearoldengine

Is it going to sit in your garage and only be brought out for track days?

If not then don't fuckin buy one.

nothing because idcsage

>>14163049
Is that even a nissan?

>>14164446
It's a scion iq or whatever they're called in lands without freedom.

All other things being equal. They turn the same.

The rwd will have an advantage accelerating out of the turn because power is being sent to one axle and the other is steering.

I go on the highway and close my eyes and see how long it takes for me to pussy out.

>>14162892

It's Wat-tan you fucking faggot

I live in the valley, all the roads your looking at are likely gravel. Only paved roads into the mountains is strathcona parkway. Highway 28 to to gold river is fun and paved, as is highway 19 all the way out to port hardy. Highway 4 is paved all the way to tofino, but sees really heavy traffic. All are quite a drive however. Forbidden plateau road is local to comox valley and is a lot of fun if you don't mind a little rally stage on the gravel. There's no meets or anything like that, just one small tight knit group of drifters and thats about it,they got a couple of miatas, some tanked s13's, a handful of e36's and and Rx7's. One guy owns an evo 4, dc2 and ver 5 sti, but that's about the most interesting thing. Dont let that discourage you from living here though. The city isn't the most interesting place in the world but its right in the middle of the island making it close to all the interesting things and places on the island.

Thanks anon.

What are the "interesting things and places on the island?" Seems like everything is a 6 hour drive away or less.

>>14162776
I live in a small town 15km south of vancouver

sea to sky is beautiful, but its not in the island tho

Ecoboost. More low end power. with the V6 you have to really wring it out. Ecoboost has BOOOOOOOOOST.

>>14162703
Ecoboost is roughly 6 grand less than the GT.

>>14162547
Neither could you

>>14162552
Typical miata faggot, always on the defense.

>>14162559
Nice try at a misdirect poorfag.
You can't even afford a miata.
How's the bus?

I'm glad they changed the name from McKinley since McKinley never even drove it.

>>14162481
That doesn't look like a Roush.

it's an overpriced SUV. there's not much to like unless you hate money or your husband's some sort of management

>>14162480
>it almost puts the gas pedal to the floor
This is your kickdown engaging and putting your car into a lower gear so you can accelerate. If you want to change this, get a car that allows you to control what gear you're in.

manually give it gas to get back to near the speed you want it to be and then reengage it.

it's just trying to catch up to where it was before.

>>14162517
This is eventually what I end up doing but it seems live every car/truck I drive does this.

is this the back to reddit car?

>>14162347
Hello...McFly?!

>>14162347
I like the movies, but I kind of wish the movies didn't get made so the DeLorean didn't have the normie/reddit stigma it has now.

Inflation.

Read your owners manual.

battery prices have gone up significantly. best bet is costco.

>>14162073
I work at walmart in automotive. Your BMW uses an H7 size battery, in that size we only have the Everstart Maxx with the 5 year warranty (3 years free replacement+2 years prorated) for $150.
