It's because of El NiƱo you fucking retard.
Hehehe hairdresser lolololol
Is there really any alternative to the Miata? For the roadster that it is, it seems like there isn't anything like it in terms of price, looks, and driving feel. Are there any roadsters that come close or should I just buy one already?
>>14029855
Closest you get for cheap is a beat up old Spitfire. If you have a decent budget you can get an S2000, Kappa, MR-S or Z3. The Miata is the most Miata-ish of the bunch, though.
Buy one already, get an NB. Nobody in real life cares about that HURR DURR HAIRDRESSER shit besides insecure manbabies
>>14029903
this. I love my miata. when people poke fun at my car it's only in jest. if you take that shit seriously then you have some major self esteem issues.
Will boxy cars ever make a comeback?

I WAS DOING SO WELL
FUCK YOU
i was thinking about designing a car /o/
it'd be electric, but get this. you know how batteries really make it pigfat? well my batteries aren't like that. instead it utilizes nanowire ultracapacitors, increasing its power desnity several times over. this shaves the weight to about 40% of conventional lithium batteries. so lets take a known EV like the tesla and look at its weight and how much of it is contributed to batteries.
You have the Tesla Model S, which weighs about 4,600 lbs, and how much does the battery pack weight? 1323 lb! that's more than the weight of the actual frame!
taking that down to 40% we'd get 529.2lbs. that would take the weight down to 4071lbs.
thoughts?
>FOUR THOUSAND POUNDS
Still pigfat.

i just want to know how this happened
sup /o/
i have a 01 nissan sentra gxe, these lights on my car are dead
what is the technical name for them? are they cheap and an easy replacement?
sorry i do not know shit about cars
>>14029251
That car has no lights there. Those are blanks for where fog lights would go. They are usually not easy to replace because the bulbs should just about last the lifetime of the car. You only use fog lights in inclement weather such as fog, so you shouldn't really worry about them.
>>14029257
they are also completely fucking useless so even if one does burn out there's literally no point replacing it
>>14029257
fuck i thought they were regular lights
i am asking because i cannot see shit at night even with high beams on, i replaced the bulbs of he headlights... maybe they aren't strong enough?
This looks good, I never know i want a Chinese car
China today is pretty much 1950's US, or 1970's Japan.
Expect everything innovative and exciting to come from there in the next decades.
>>14029158
It looks like a Rolls Royce had sex with a Trabant.
>>14029158
Looks like a chinese knockoff of opel's knockoff of bentley.
What's the hardest part on your car you've had to fix?
Blower Motor Resistor, Panther Platforms.
Heater Core, FWD shitboxes.
clutch

Look at the bottom of first post
DON'T TELL ME TO READ THE STICKY , IT ONLY USEFULL IF YOU ARE AN AMERICAN IN 2002
I got my drivers licence a week ago and my parents have offered to buy me a car .They told me i have a budget of about 12.000 euros ( which i know is a lot ) . They said it's up to me to choose what to buy but i know that's a load of horseshit . What i'm looking for is :
>2L or less engine
>good EMPEGEEEES
>second hand whith less than 100K km
>4doors of go home
>autotragic (but i might be able to convince them to get me a manuel )
I'd also like Bluetooth so i can hook up my phone to the stereo and listen to my shit music . Idk if i should go manual or autotragic , cause i'm a pleb and i'm not very good at driving stick . also , this car is a DD in a city , so i cringe at the thought of crawling in trafic with a manual . But still
>autotragic
Was thinking of getting a Jetta form 2012 with 60-70k km .
What the fuck do i do /o/ ????
>>14028780
also don't tell me that what i'm gonna end up buying is gonna be boring / shit . It's just a fact of life that there is no fun to be had in europe if you're not the son of an oil oligarch .
>>14028780
>What the fuck do i do /o/ ????
>>14028786
It could be worse , i could not get a car at all . Also i'm happy as shit that i got my licence , driving is fucking amazing when you are alone behind the wheel .
Lately I've been thinking about buying a 1990s M3 as a fun second car. How bad of an idea is this /o/? Will it be ruinously expense?
How are you doing financially? Are you prepared to spend up to $10K/year maintaining that car? If the answers no fuck off and come back when you can.
>>14028700
$10k a year? Good god, I only make 60k a year. I better wait a few years before I even think about this.
>>14028700
>$10k/year
I love this meme. It gets bigger every time.
I'm thinking of getting a hearse as my first car. I know the gas mileage sucks, but are there any issues with the V8 Northstar engine ?
>>14028669
>are there any issues with the V8 Northstar engine ?
Yeah, it sits the wrong way around in the engine bay.
Spray paint "#yolo" on the side of it.
>>14028683
I get it
What's your opnion on Alpines?
>>14028590
>>14028590
Muh dikk! Fucking beautiful cars, even the later models. Too bad they're only good for zipping around southern europe or driving in the summer.
>>14028590
I love them.
They're so tiny and low, the blue A110 driven fast looks like it's a water droplet on a hot stove.
Is Boxster 986 actually best car for the usual /o/ lurker/car enthusiast?
> outhandles S2000, BMW Z4, FRS
> cost below 10k
> porsche badge
> has 2 trunks, so more DD usability than usual "sport cars"
> non-manlets can fit unlike a miata
> tfw no gf, no need for more than 2 seats
> no useless infotaiment technology
> it's basically a good usable powerful non-toy miata
discuss
>>14028505
This car is cursed. It's the only Porsche I won't drive because I don't wanna die like James Dean.
Cayman is better
I have an old 2000 boxster, car does eat corners like a boss. I do not like the powerband though. (Slow)
Picked it up for 9k with 48k miles.
Maintenance is kind of annoying and you have to remove all sorts of liners and partial top to get to anything with the belt, manifold, aos, etc.
Driving the vehicle will make you want to get a higher end porsche.
Still a head turner car despite being old and cheap.
There are no fucking cup holders!
Rear tires last 10 - 15k miles, cannot rotate tires.
People fear IMS bearing failing on early porsche boxsters (if it fails the entire engine needs to be replaced) you can get an IMS bearing upgrade done for around 1.5k.
Soft tops suck of you live in cold climates, vinyl windows become like hard plastic and crack.
Anyone want pictures or have questions, feel free to ask.
