It seems that this car is widely lauded around here. But isn't it just a under powered, overpriced fedora machine for interior designers, hairdressers, or other poor GenXs'.

It's cheap and is one of the best corner carvers out there. It's not a straight-line car.

I'm set on getting a fast premium mid size RWD V8 sedan.

I've had it narrowed down to either a 2013 Infiniti M56 or 2013 Mercedes E550. I initially had a BMW 550i was an early choice but I don't want the sheer stress associated with owning an aging V8 BMW, so more or less tossed the idea.

What does /o/ suggest?

Of which, when previously taken care of, there is none.
Far less than the modern Merc one's. Lexus should be solid.

No. A V8 5 series is a 550, and I can guarantee you a BMW twin turbo V8 is far more problematic than a Mercedes V8.

So I was changing the oil in my bike the other day and I went to the store to pick up a new filter and oil. And the guy asked me if I wanted an oil box. I said wtf are you talking about. He shows me this cardboard box lined with a plastic bag and filled with this kitty litter type shit. You can use it in place of an oil pan the shit absorbs the Fucking oil, you tape it up and throw it in the garbage. All epa or whoever the fuck approved. Holds up to 5 liters. No cans of old oil sitting in the garage for 3 years. No dropping it off at gas stations in the middle of the night so they don't argue about taking it.

It blew my mind.

Game changer.

This one time I was bombing down a side street at about 2am and some dog jumped out in front of my car. Rather than jump the curb and fuck up my wheel/hub/axle/etc., I just went straight and ran it over. Saved me a shitton in repairs, just needed a little Simple Green cleaner to get the bumper back to normal.

Sign up for one of those online companies where you can print your insurance card right away. Then immediately cancel your plan but keep the card.

Why the hell would Progessive "report" you anyway?

>>14040439
Contact them and let them know that you are leaving.
Go to the ghetto and find an insurance company that charges 25 bucks a month and sign up

Hey guys, I bought a manual car without knowing too much about driving manual, what are some good ways to practice or good skills I should learn if I'm going to be driving around?

I know enough to start the car without stalling and drive around with no problems (friend taught me a few months ago and I more or less remembered it) but sometimes I'll do a small burnout when starting from a stop and it's really fucking hard for me to drive forwards/backwards just a little bit when parking, meaning I have to go for the easiest spot to get into/out of while parking.

How do I do this? From what I understand I have to rev the car to around 1000-1200 RPM and then slowly take the clutch out until it catches and starts to move, and then just hold it there right? Doesn't this burn the clutch? Also, what do I do to start on a hill, or park on a hill? I feel like I can start on most hills by just dumping the gas and clutch and having my tires spin before catching (have to learn to stop doing that but it works for now), but if I have to do a small move on a hill I can't react fast enough without the car starting to roll.

Anyways, tips/thoughts/advice? Car is a 1993 300zx by the way.

Yes it does burn the clutch, the trick to learning how not to do that is to learn how to get the car moving without using the accelerator.

Eventually you'll get good enough to do hill starts without rolling but in the mean time learn how to use the handbrake while starting to move forward, that will keep you from rolling back on a exceptionally steep hill.

What do you mean? Won't it not get enough gas and stall out? Or is there some way of taking out the clutch that let's it catch and go forward. Is that something I should be trying to learn or should I just use my method for now?
