I see this far to often in the cars of non /o/ people, especially women. Why do so many people treat their own cars like this? It takes two minutes to pick up all the trash and five minutes to vacuum all the crumbs and dust. Do you guys keep your interior clean?
>women
>clean bedroom, messy car
>men
>messy bedroom, clean car
Just kidding, women's bedrooms are complete dumps as well.
>5 minutes
>not spending a full hour autistically vacuuming up every single spec of dust in from every fibre of fabric
M8 do you even /o/?
>>17865843
I do
My gf however does not and I get after her everytime and she just apologizes says she will try to keep it cleaner next time then does the same shit

I am currently driving a 2005 Chebby Malibu I "bought" from my grandparents for 100$ a little over a year ago. However, part of the deal is that I need to share it with my younger brother when he gets his license, which is likely to be in a few months. I really don't feel like taking the bus to uni every other day so its time that I start looking for a new car. My budget is around 5k. I'm thinking about getting a Celica as there are a few in my province for a decent price and I've heard they are decently fun to drive.
So what does /o/ recommend for a cheap, decently fun coup/sedan?

My mother has decided to buy a Smart Car. Any advice?
Convince her to get the fiat 500 abarth instead.

It certainly looks better. Any more pros?
Turns out she hates FIAT (we're Italian)
What do you guys think of Eibach sportlines? I daily drive my 2015 5.0 and want to lower it. The sportlines drop 1.5 inches, which will look nice with my 20" wheels.
Only thing is, I live in NY and the roads are complete ass.
I hope you don't have to drive up and down steep inclines often, you'll scrape. But Eibachs are a solid choice
I'm dropped 1.25" in the front on steeda progressives and stock PP wheels
>>17865160
What about just taking the inclines sideways/slow?
My buddy is dropped 1.5 and wants to go another inch in his car, not a Mustang but he's still low af.
How are the Steedas for daily driving?
>>17865168
If you go slow you'll be fine. I have to take my driveway slow to not scrape
Steeda are good for daily because theyre only 10% stiffer than the PP springs when in the linear range and then under load in secondary range they are 40% stiffer than PP springs. Got rid of 90% of noise dive on braking and it feels more planted with less body roll.
I highly recommend doing IRS mods either before struts/springs or at the same time. They offer the most noticable driving difference and getting rid of wheel hop should be your first concern before lowering it as it'll still hop all over with just changing springs

Need some help with choosing my next car. I've narrowed my search to few cars, but I wonder if you could redpill me on some of those.
So here's the list:
Citroen Xsara I
Ford Focus I
Peugeot 206
Mazda 323F BJ
Opel Vectra B
Renault Megane I
Nissan Almera N16
Which cars on this list should be avoided? Of course, all cars are considered with petrol and an engine larger than 1.4
inb4: yes, 3k civics also considered

>Opel
It's a car manufacturer. Hasn't done anything noteworthy for quite some time
>Renault

they can be expensive to live with.
Who here has vanity plates? Share what you've got or interesting ones you've seen.
I'm thinking about getting some for my ride. Pic related, what does /o/ think?
>>17865057
Texas can have custom vanity plates with a good variety of livery choices.

/o/, I have this notion that in order to learn how to fix shit on cars, that it would be a good idea to get shitty cars on craigslist, (mechanic specials or whatever) and putting the time into getting them in working order. Is this actually a good idea, or is there a better way to go about learning stuff hands on? I'm fairly mechanically inclined, and already have a DD, so there wouldn't be any rush in needing to get something working.
>>17864847
Bumb because I am thinking about doing the same thing, even if a car doesn't run, just the act of tearing it down and learning how everything goes together could be useful
Also, are there certain things that I should try to get that are easier to work on than others to start with? I also don't mind investing money into tools/equipment when it ends up being neccesary
Get a shitty civic from the mid nineties and start working.
MR-RR GENERAL
all rear wheel drive cars with engines behind the driver welcome, FMR cars not welcome.
had pic related for 3 or 4 years. 1987 Toyota MR2 hardtop, manual n/a.
been on many adventures. was an aussie delivered one. done 347,000kms. engine was in need of a rebuild, and there was some rust that needed to be fixed (quoated, best case to fix was $1500), was always planning on getting a SC one, but i had strict criteria, had to be 1988, SC, Manual, White and hardtop (for the roof racks) so i thought i'd have to import one from Japan when i got around to having that much spare cash lying around.
1/?

How does one even get into this car with a bar blocking entry?
>>17857708
2/?
It was slowly coming to the crunch time of whether i spent alot of money on the 87 n/a or put the money towards what i wanted. so when this appeared, i snapped it up. fitted all the criteria, even came with the toyota pop up fog lights (hnng). so going to grab all the good parts from the 87 and put them in the 88, get the rust fixed on the roof of the 88, swap the wheels, radio over from the 87 to the 88. can't wait for all the adventures headed this ones way. only done 130,000kms. so happy with that. obviously sat for a while at some point (the rust on the roof hints at that)
anyone got a decent link to a page that goes through all the differences between JDM models and export markets as well as the years?
the doors feel lighter, same as the engine lid. interior wise, there's no centre console cassette holder anymore. radio antenna in a different spot to the 87. can't wait to change the steering wheel, someone put in some ugly POS thing, putting the stock one from the 87 into it. just can't wait to get to spend some time on it, and in it. stupid work.
