Don't do that. At least buy a Crown Vic and drive like a grandpa so you can still have eight cylinders of get-up-that-hill-and-around-ms-subaru-lesbianback.

I'm definitely /getting old/, I'm 26 and just got my first full time job since I was 21, in fact last night was my first full shift. Cool thing is that I'm a mechanic, bad thing is how bad my feet hurt after being on my feet in the shop for eight hours(I'm fat tho).

As far as driving like a dipshit I've only gotten worse but my driving skills have greatly improved as I've aged. Coming home from work I had to go up 500 yard road on a hill with about a 40 degree incline so I shifted down to 2nd(in an automatic) and shot up the hill at 60mph, pedal was to the floor and I was hitting 5000 rpms the entire time.

Yeah that took the wind out of my driving sails

Even though i am broke just been a /drive/ n33t makes driving more fun.

If i eventually get work again it will probably be taxi/driving work and that will suck the fun out of it.

At least buy something cool and drive like a grandpa.

Experience gave me perspective.

Street racing is incredibly dangerous. Police shoot to kill if you try to have fun. Having fast, expensive cars doesn't get the beautiful girl. Career is more important than car because car reflects career.

But, that never stopped me wanting a cool car. I just dont care about horsepower, bench racing and mods as much as I used to.

What if you have a panther but you still hoon it?

31 now. I've calmed down a lot. In my mid 20s I was still aggressive but now I take the middle lane a lot more and don't care if my trip takes a bit longer.

This. Considering how retarded pedestrians can be, its incredibly dangerous these days. Not to mention old people and uneducated little shits

Wiping out on open roads at high speed can be deadly when you don't account for telephone poles, ditches, boulders, sidewalks or even guardrails.

That is how you die.
>>
>>16525086
It's also partially your fault if you kill someone anywhere while exceeding the speed limit, you reckless little cuntbag.
>>
>>16525117
Driving in the first place can be deadly. I almost crashed last week going 70 on the highway. Cry harder
>>
>>16525128
>reckless
No

>>16525128
Nope. Pedestrian ALWAYS has to make sure its safe to cross a road. Yes, its my fault if i pull hectic skidz at 100kmh speed and fly off the road on pavement killing somebody

As long as you're not like 250ibs or more it'll get a FUCK TON worse for about two weeks and then much much better after the third. Take lots of ibuprofen and you'll be okay.

Excessive speed ALWAYS gives you partial fault for a collision. Whether it be a car, a person or a wheelie bin. It's not my opinion, it's a legal fact.
>>
>>16525210
Its not. Now kindly fuck off, tard. Its not my fault retarded granny crosses fucking street while its red light for her. CHECK YOUR SURROUNDINGS. Car is way more heavier than humam body, so its easier for you just to stay or back off while on foot. If its a collision with a car? Yes, guilty and responsible for the damage

Making land barges fast isn't usually hard, just overlooked by normies.

But sometimes a landbarges best use is being a landbarge. With that said I'm building another box panther up so take what I say with a grain of salt.

>drive like a racer because sportyish car and suspension with good tires
>car dies and get new car
Now that I drive a smooth luxury sedan, I don't feel the same need to rail corners and hit apexes as fast as I used to. I just embrace the feeling of cruising while feeling minimal front-and-back and side-to-side G-forces and road noise.
>>
>>16526482
as somehow who takes non sporty cars and drives them like racecars its much more fun

That said i am slowly turning my old barge into a racecar for the lols and it actually GRIPS

Wish i would have seen this thread earlier.
I realized this about 5 years ago. Im 30 now.
I sold all my sports cars and bought a comfy light truck and a dual purpose bike.
Life is so much better not trying to act like a cool guy or impress anyone with muh sports car and hooning.
Havent had a ticket since then, or a near death experience.

Can confirm. When me and my buddies were young and stupid ever near miss we had was from some oblivious and/or careless asshole either drifting out of their lane or not looking or signalling before changing lanes. That and pedestrians and especially cyclists and people in wheelchairs have a death wish and will take every opportunity to jaywalk they can especially when there's traffic. The pedestrians have no excuse and most of the drivers in question were noticibly going under the speed limit and whether we had been doing 1km/h or 100km/h more than them and they cut us off it would've been at least partially if not 100% their fault for being careless.
>>
>>16526582
Also all the motorists in question were always the only other people on the road and we were in the other lane well ahead of time. They had absolutely no reason to leave their lane and a lot of the time drove with their lights off at night.
>>
I never really had a chance to be a "driver" when I was young, I had a long, sad line of econoboxes because I could never afford anything better.

Now that I can afford a good car, I appreciate the car's abilities a lot more.

I am just a person that stays within my car's limits

my new car slides at the speeds I used to do corners at in my previous car, and I have decided that I want to keep this car as comfy old guy cruiser instead of wearing it out or breaking things from hooning.

it's a 99 Acura RL, so turning it into something it's not would be a huge waste of money. I would just use a different car if I wanted something to thrash about

Don't know about a prius, but I'm 39 & just got a 2012 Avalon. Every other Avalon driver I see on the road is 70+. I still have a Harley, but haven't really rode much in the last 2 years. I'm currently looking for a 70's land barge. Mostly likely a 77-79 Lincoln Continental.
