I was originally looking for a 2005-06 GTO because I mainly wanted something rwd, V8, manual yet something more unique and not common. There weren't any manuals for sale and learned about the first gen CTS-V. All were manual only, and got a 2007 to still have the LS2.

I bought the pontiac originally when I went out to look for an srt4 neon, all the neons were beat to hell but I came across the GTO and found out it was only a little more. Test drove it and really liked it, made a cool noise didnt see many, and had a nice interior.
I bought my lexus because i got tired of putting miles and paying gas on the GTO, but still wanted something somewhat sporty and with 4 doors. Decent reliability and good mpg.

I bought it because it had decent power for my price range. I also like it because it looks modest. Its my first manual.

>the engine runs like a champ
>it sips fuel + LPG = stupid cheap to run

>these are fairly thief proof- depreciation due to rust makes them unappealing. also wrecking yards have plenty of them for parts
>its hard wearing, other cars this age and price level are mostly scrap or worn out, but these old 626`s just keep on running. people just get to know a welder who occasionaly patches it up and there you go, change the oil and putter along. yeah there are VW`s of the same age, but the level of maintanece is higher and the wear down quicker
>yep, its slow(1.8l making 100hp with 16v twin cams. wtf, but good level of grunt in low revs for such top-weak engine) and noisy on the highway, but it hasnt missed a beat once

and it could keep on going for another 150000 km easy, but rust is an issue. 6 holes over time have been needed to be patched up. damn winter salt. i guess i might sell it in autumn, or just properly deal with the rusty spots and. just. keep. on. truck-ing.

it's pretty slow but fun to drive. the transmission is kind of shit, I think toyota used a 6spd from one of their trucks in this car. Girls automatically think I'm rich for some reason.

I'll probably drive it into the ground, no reason to buy a newer car at this point. doing the brakes this weekend and then the radiator and water pump as preventative maintenance.

Well in that case, all post 1995 Imprezas (excluding the Japanese models which had awd as an option) are AWD. As far as snow goes, they're unstoppable with a set of snow tires. Pre 2008 Imprezas with the 2.0 or 2.5 engines are pretty fun to drive because they're relatively light. If you don't care about driving dynamics, the 2008-2016 models are basically corollas with AWD and a more boring interior.

>>16776526
>>16776417
Further note, WRX's have AWD and a rear viscous LSD standard. Fucking hoot to drive, and I'd say they're more dailyable than the STI's because the engine isn't as fussy about what gear you're in. The 2.0L engines are more reliable in general, just make sure you get a catless uppipe.

>>16776556
After 07 they don't have a rear LSD anymore. it's 1 wheel peel front and rear.

>>16778755
Well, from what I understand the direct reasoning for not including them in the USDM 2015 Evo X was because it didn't meet the safety regulations and requirements for the US. Odd, but I did manage to get a good deal for my Evo X, I got her brand new for 32k OTD 6 months ago. 45 miles on the ODO. She sat at the dealership for a year and some change. I had some buying power because of that very reason. Mitsubishi wanted that car sold. I even got a free 100k warranty with the purchase. So, I certainly justify the 6k off from the sticker tag (38.5k) - TL;DR No Recaros, but got a decent deal.

I "daily" drive a '93 Buick Lesabre. Bought it a year ago and is my first car. I had the funds to buy something newer/nicer, but I wasn't going to drive much. Also, my dad owned a '91 and seeing one brought me nostalgia. The glorious interior comfort is something I forgot about. So I did it because it was a great deal too. 75k miles on it for just $1000. Sure, the paint's rough, and the car hadn't been driven for 6 months prior to me which gave me troubles, but it serves me well for a car I need to use 2-3 times a week to drive 5-10 miles. In one year, I've put just shy of 2k on the thing.

I'm looking to replace it though. Might give it to my old man if he wants it.

It has $600 in fees, lien title, the tranny apparently overheats on really hot days or when going up too many hills

Pretty sure the suspension is mostly shot

It's been sitting for 2 years so I have to do all this before I can drive it.

change battery
change oil
change coolant
change/flush tranny
change fuel filter
change oil filter
clean HVAC intake
change motor mounts
replace CVT filter and gasket
check for seized brakes
check wheels for flat spots
check for condensation in gas tank
check for worn belts
(can you think of anything else to check?)

If I jump start it, the motor still turns over and runs fine.

Is this even worth keeping?

Wanted something that was at least a little fun to drive but also cheap to own. Needed to buy something quick as my old Corolla shit out on me. It has a dent in the rear door and needs an oxygen sensor but it was the only one under 3k I could find, got it for 2500 with 130k miles on it, did I fuck up too bad?

0.25 lux at 2300m/1 mile 750yd, and its actually correct

I mean, Rigid is expensive as shit and definitely not the "bang for your buck"-brand, but you cant argue with the quality of the workmanship, the effect per watt and the 5 year full warranty

The only thing I'd consider would be two NBB 225mm/9 inch buckets in pencil-configuration, with a 65w HID swap. They would be aimed to the right and to the left of the main beam of the bar (it has a very distinct long-range beam in the middle) to improve the lighting in tighter corners, as the far end of the corner is often dark

God no, that era of Chrysler products is especially bad even by Chrysler's rock bottom low standards. Maybe if it was a manual it "could" be a reliable car but that CVT is extremely troublesome and failure prone and it would cost more than the car is worth to replace it. Try to get some money scrapping it or parting it out, and use put the money toward a better car. With all that shit it needs done your staring down the barrel of a hopeless money pit which you absolutely don't need in your current financial situation.

1SS. Couldn't find that color combo in an SS with the options i wanted(manual, those specific rims, front fascia extension, media kit) within 500 miles of me. i'm not really slumming it, per say, but my daily became unreliable, so i wasn't about to wait 8 weeks to have my own built. all that being said, i miss the HUD(test drove one that had it and thought it was pretty cool), but that was 15k miles ago and i can say i'm very happy with this car.

There is just something I love about good ole American muscle. I love the sound of a V8 and the hellcat, although being a tank, has a stupid amount of power and it's under warranty. Hard to pass that up. I intend to modify it once warranty is up but I will hold off until then. That's if I don't trade in for the demon. The Hellcat isn't my daily driver though.

If the cobra doesn't wheel hop its way down the road, and neither does the focus. The cobra most likely wins.

We used to have a 2010 Fit, but my mom insisted on selling it because she said it was too expensive to maintain. This POS is as expensive, if not even more when it starts to break.

Also, I lost the front plate in a flood last week so now I have temporal plates..

I have a 2003 Protege 5, and it's surprisingly fun.
My mom bought it new to replace her EK hatch and we've had it since. It's really a great car.
Makes some noise and the transmission needs bushings BAD, but I still love it.

I bought it maybe a month ago and I absolutely love it. I had a forester before this and I sunk a lot of money and it just felt like a rice rocket. I wanted another Subaru but didn't want to be associated with the wrx/sti crowd so this was perfect for me. It ran rough when I got it so I slapped a weber carb on it and now its my daily.

I bought mine out of a junkyard for $300, and the guy also let me pull the turbo off an old 12v Cummins for no extra cost. I never got around to actually building it to take any serious boost, but it sure sounded cool as fuck.

Played around with it on backroads for a while, then traded it for a PS4, flat screen, and games.

2003 G35 sedan VQ35DE 5AT RWD

Got a great deal on it from a friend who was about to trade it in at another dealer while I was working for an Infiniti dealer. I told him I would pay whatever the dealer he was trading to would give him for the car.

My parts discount and cheap help from Infiniti techs when I needed it allowed me to fix the car for pennies on the dollar.

I have had it just over a year now and put 27,000 kilometers on it and other than the known problems I bought it with, all it's needed is a starter.

I got a set of used sport package wheels with summer tires which helped a lot with roll while cornering. Needs some more maintenance but it's been a good car to me.

grats, fellow camarobro!

Car: A32
Why: mildly fast (6.4 second 0-60, tops out beyond 140 [these are my settis, the factory claims were less]) 5spd MT, 4 doors, plenty of space, handles good, oversteer more than understeer, cheap parts, reliable, easy to work on.

'05 Outback, pretty standard-tier but gets the job done and nicely too...
