This, and also what purpose. Want to go fast in a straight line? Want maximum comfort? Want something to set stupid fast laptimes? Want to be able to take it anywhere, roads be damned?

Snow. Considering that it's NA, not much other than typical bimmer repairs. Enjoy the inline balance and power

Yeah, got the wrong engine

>>17366637
Bears. Plenty of then in Leafland.

Mercedes had a terrible period in the early 2000s but seems to have gotten their shit back together, BMW is probably the most fun to drive, don't even bother with "luxury" VW.

Do you care about driving and fun? Get the BMW
If not - Mercedes

mercedes benz is for old people, they drive like a fat kid on a bicycle, and they're just boring imo. audis are just plushy Volkswagens and are kind of chubby looking.

bimmers are fun to drive but the year you mentioned can be a nightmare in terms of reliability if the previous owner didn't take care of it.


my opinion: get a new mazda 6 touring or grand touring, since they're sexy

why bother.

Because I just got it and it has a badass paint job and rims

>>17366424
It's a truck tho... You paint your nails too?

>>17366220
you can get home with 3 brakes ive gotten home with 2 before no big deal

>>17366220
WOT the whole way then watch it catch fire directly in front of your house

If you've got a large enough hitting stick, try giving the caliper a good twat
Fixed my issue until I got it to a garage, but that was an E-brake fault not a normal brake fault

The top right looks like the normal pneumatic connector, attach your hose to it an push it in the compressor's socket

>faster than a BRZ

Why does /o/ like Japanese sports cars from the early 90s even though they're overpriced by several thousand when not completely ruined?

Why not just finance a new car, or buy a used car from 2007+ for the same amount of money?

As an owner of 20yo japcrap and having a gookshit in family for 9 years, both with same mileage (320,000km) I'll tell you hwhat. When you can't order normal wheel bearing because most companies stopped making them, and you have to buy some random shit which may broke after 10kkm or buy OEM for half worth of your car, then you consider changing to something new. You or I won't stop it, older car gonna be for people, who just throw money into their classic. Also, remember that there are people who need car for their work and cannot risk, that some fucker didn't tell them that car has some problem that can immobilize your car and you will be late for lecture worth few thousand dollars. If I had to buy new car, I would just stick with basic trim, I don't care about Bluetooth 17.1 speakers and dick-massaging seat, I just want comfy car (unless you can't get best engine without TAKING THIS XXXL OPTION WITH BRAKE, SUSPENSION AND MASTURBATION ASSIST REEEEEEEEE).
Oh and this "shitty" Kia took 300kkm without major problem (only one I remember, was wiper stopped working, around 80kkm, new works to this day).

Don't these grenade the transmissions because >FWD V8 and >torks?

>>17364280
I own a W-body Impala but its with the newer V6 6-speed auto instead of 4-speed found in your SS.

Supposedly these things would destroy their transmissions because the transverse V8 put into them was more than the trans could handle even scaled back. they were pretty damn cool sleepers with 0-60 in around 6 seconds.

Pretty sure yours would be find if you don't push it too hard and its likely what your friend did.

Watch the transmissions on these, they really weren't suited to handle the V8's torque and they go out fairly often. Don't do skids like a mad cunt.

Come to think of it, I remember a newtrip from a few years back that got the Pontiac version of this car. I gave him the same warning about hooning it, which he promptly ignored. Last I heard he glasses the trans and had to sell it...

truck noob, I don't really get the appeal of a two door truck. If it's a work vehicle, and you're trying to cram it full of workers to get to a job site, why wouldn't you want more doors?

And if it's a tow vehicle, you want more seats for more people to go to the dunes or camping or the track or whatever, right?
