/o/, What's you next planned car purchase?

I really want to find a clean Mazda 323 GTX, and do a familia front end conversion, or better yet a Familia GTX I could import.

It's basically a Mazda WRX with a turbo 1.8 engine and AWD, and it only weighs 2600lbs.

Probably a 2nd Gen Prius to replace my shitbox Civic when it dies.

My fun car (E36 M3) will probably get replaced by a R33 GTR/GC WRX STi/Evo 3 or maybe a FD RX7 in 6-7 years once they're legal in the USA and the hype dies down. Probably the R33 but fuck if a 2600-2700lb 300whp Turbo AWD car isn't appealing to me (GC STi/Evo 3)
>>
>>15779906

Forgot, if its a GTR it HAS to be Burgundy/Red.

Maybe silver to match my silver M3. But red GTRs make me stiff.

GC STi/Evo, I'd like yellow but I know that's a retarded rare color so I'd settle for white or silver.

Probably would go for the STi (v3-6) since the Evo 3s are ridiculously rare. Let alone one in Dandelion Yellow.

Aren't there way more of them in Japan than in America?

Considering they were sold from 1992-2002 there and 1993-1995 here? I think the LHDs will keep appreciating, but the RHD ones coming in to increase numbers hopefully will keep their prices from going out of control.

Preferably a cheap car I can both DD and eventually try to get into amateur rally with.

I'd like to get a Mustang GT (New Edge or 2013-16 yes I know that includes two gens) within five years, but I currently make jack shit and that all hinges on getting a good job without a degree since I can't afford to finish school.

But an old Golf or Fiesta is my current goal.

2004 Saturn Ion Redline

Never have driven a stick shift before and I've been looking around craigslist for weeks trying to find something decent. Just a bunch of civics, old shit, and beat up pickup trucks under $5000. Yesterday I saw a redline ion for $3500 with less than 100k miles so I'm pretty excited to snatch it up if it runs well. I'll have to get my dad to test drive it before I buy it but at that price I really don't think I can go wrong. I figure I could have some fun with it until it goes belly up and I decide to buy a real sports car or a nicer, newer tuner. I think any manual would be more fun to drive than my current 2004 prius...

Also I've never seen a body like this. Suicide doors... the console in the center instead of on the left... pretty strange.
>>
>>15780485

Not even, B5s are just cheap as shit and apparently the 4.2 V8 is a straight swap. Nobody expects a B5 without W8 badge to be fast.

I have considered this but roll cage and "rally" shocks would be so god damn expensive. Maybe just a cheap ass civic (i.e. 250$ )

Another issue is it has to be road legal cause no trailer/dolly and need insurance.

Found a 91 Daihatsu Charade on Craigslist for $1300, think I'll try to sell my Amerifat economy sedan and buy the 1.0L manual shitbox instead.
>>
>>15780319

Back in the 90's, yeah sure, when the aftermarket was fucking terrible and a boost controller and an apexi afc was all you had to work with.

>gearbox killer

They reused the gearset from the sr20de sunny, so sure I'll give you that one.

I have shifty rsx dd, thinking of importing a 180sx or r33 this spring but everyone seem's to think I should just get a newer dd. I wouldn't mind getting a decently fun newer dd but for my job I get in and out of my car 50 times a day, drive 200kms and live where they put two inches of salt on the ground in the winter. I just want a car I can keep mint and baby, just go for a cruise on the twisted a couple times a week in the summer.

Probably a wrecked/basket case 02/03 WRX so I can start my WRX swap into my Legacy GT. I just have to find one near me. So far it seems cheaper to buy the whole car than everything I still need individually. (engine, turbo crossmember, fuel pump, rear diff, etc) I already have the merged wiring harness, so maybe I could sell the WRX harness to someone else who needs a swap. I'd like the black/blue seats and stock wheels too, but those are less important.
>>
>>15781888
Uhhh, no. You can get *a* RX-7 for cheaper but a nice one is still at least 1.5-2 million yen which is roughly $15-20k for a basic turbo model. A Type R or Bathurst in really good condition will be anywhere from 2-4.5 million yen.

i'm from /g/. anyone know if a 2009 dodge charger is a good car? any problems i should know about? i can buy one that was a police car for $3000. it has 83k miles on it. the radio and console was removed and it will need to be replaced. i would also need to have the doors painted black for it to match. looks good other than that from what i can tell. it is the v6 model

is this worth it? i don't know anything about cars.

Cop auction cars that aren't drug dealer cars will have 3x the miles shown on the odo worth of wear - the cars sit and idle for ungodly long. an hourmeter would be the only real judge. Plus there's a lot of shit you have to tear out and it just generally won't be that great unless you just don't give a fuck. Strip dat der charger's full interior out and cage it and DD it.
