How terrible of an idea is it to get an e30 as your first car? I'm interested in working on cars so I'd be willing to do any repairs I could by myself.

Do you live in europe? Careful with old BMW's and Mercs. Theyre often trashed by their previous (boyracer) owners. Do not buy from Turks etc.

Noice. If it's yours (which I presume it is because of that WAT sticker), you better keep it that clean and unmolested.

Nigga what? I bought a car before I had insurance. Just insure it as soon as physically possible.
>>
>>17387028
do you have a source of income?
if you do, you can take in-car driving lessons by calling one of them driving help services.

it also helps to have friends if you can borrow their car (but i dont blame you if you don't want to borrow your friends things, i hate borrowing shit)

good luck

It isn't hard, OP.

Go look at craigslist or the local classifieds and find some old corolla or civic and get to it.

first see if it works.
see if the supercharger even makes boost?
its a common failure
see if the sunroof works, extremely hard to fix.
100 % failure rate on them.
and make sure other stuff like the cruise works.
this wasnt vw's most reliable car and thats saying something.

Engineering is hard for retards

What's the best new daily driver I can get for $20k and below?

I don't care what it looks like or what stigma is attached to owning it. As long as it gets good mileage and is reliable I will drive it.

I was leaning towards a Nissan Sentra because I have an older one as my beater and the thing is a tank

GTI/GTD yes.

In countries where there are pollution taxes and so on they're not that expensive. Kids buy them, not knowing shit about cars, and they sell them as soon as it's due for maintenance or something breaks.

god i love the look of those early golf gtis

I suppose it might change from place to place

If I ever do see someone speeding stupidly over the limit here its usually a VW Passat, Audi A4, Volvo 240/740, and sometimes an S13

i want to own a total shitbox. i have a nice car, but i'm always scared of dents, scratches etc. so i want something i can fling into park and forget it and wish for it to be stolen. i heard /o/ likes shitboxes, so whats reliable and comfy?

literally anything that's cheap.

If you want to choose, you might want peugeot 106 - even 1.4 8v is lively and ready for some fun, plus those cars are dirt cheap and its spare parts are cheap too. I own xsara shitbox and waste it on forest roads, if it'd be as lightweight as 106, i'd be a happy man.

Just keep in mind that you won't go especially fast in it, every serious crash will fold entire driver space. Driving fun is not about driving fast though.

Any car can handle snow if you buy proper snow tires for it and not that all season crap.
Get a Prius. Seriously. Cheap to run and bulletproof driveline.

Because it's shit

Honda put 95% of their effort into the Type R and only 4% into the Si (the remaining 1% is split between the NSX, F1, and Indycar)
