At what age does it look weird for a grown man to be driving a shitbox? Im 27 and drive pic related, and really enjoy driving it.
>2011+ car with book value of $5000-8000
>shitbox

Hmmm.
Is this a shitbox?
What makes a "shitbox?"
>>16306457
>Book Value of Under $2-3000 at most, closer to $1500
>More than one color, dents/body damage, mechanical issues, etc
>Absolutely embarrassing to show up to work in
It should look like it belongs in a trailer park/inner city ghetto to properly qualify as a shitbox

I have a V6 Sonata exactly like pic related. 2006 with 126,000 miles and KBB value of like 3 grand. No scratches or dents or mismatching colors.
Is it a shitbox?
>>16306814
no, it still looks like it'd belong to a older middle class white person
closer to book value of $2000 or less with body damage/mechanical issues/rust should qualify. it should be a car you don't give a fuck if you rear end someone and total it out

If you own a 10 year old or newer midsize sedan, you should be fine.
It's the compacts and below that are embarrassing to own.

"shitbox" is a term that gets used too loosely on here. That vehicle is perfectly fine for a 27 year old man to drive.

>tfw dad used to drive Audi 80 until 2008 when he was hitting 50, because he liked it
He rakes in good dough engineering in the cig business, but he liked the old diesel junker so much.
Then he got 2 bmws in a row, current one is autotragic 420 ;_;
Nobody really gives a shit what you drive. Get over yourself.

It definitely does. I too was under the impression "shitbox" and "underpowered economy car" were interchangeable.
I've been calling my mom's Mazda 3 a shitbox for two years and she stares at me every time.

>autotragic 420
Sounds like a faggot
>>16306933
I agree with this post
>>16306852
10 years is probably not old enough nowadays since boomers are the biggest market demographic for cars and they're all slow, old and stupid now. Probably 15+ years and over 175k miles to be a shitbox, 250k if Japanese

>saying a word like shitbox to your mom ever
Sounds like you're too young for this board or you're our generations norman bates
