2010 VW Golf 2.5l

Love: manual trans (only one I've ever driven a lot, I think it's actually supposed to feel like shit compared to others) sounds after CAI; comfy seats; handling; decent acceleration compared to my previous corolla; interior is awesome for a basic hatch

Hate: stock speakers; it's not a GTI; ride quality; steering wheel shakes at 70mph and up, and I've tried everything to fix it; gets dirty fast (black) steel wheels;

>hate
understeers like a bitch obviously
more than 10% throttle in the rain and my wheels spin despite decent all seasons
beam axle suspension and big sidewalls mean my rear end hops all over the place when navigating rough turns
its sterile, boring looks (give it a sleeper vibe though, so its cool)
the white-faced guages with white-backlight

Overall, I love this thing. But the convertible fact just kills me with the downsides. If I didn't get it for so cheap, I'd say not worth. But I can keep up at the meets easy enough, so it does the job for now.

Subaru BRZ
Love: Handling, cornering, smooth shifter, kicking out the back end easily
Hate: lack of torque, lack of trunk space, hard to get out of such a low car, no heated steering wheel

ITT

>old cars are old, need repairs
>new cars are awesome, want more gimmics

>>16843494
hmm well thats possible ofc. but since there is no adjustable suspension i can´t change anything about it. i wouldn´t change anything though.

what i can say that tyres are influential as well. if you mount grippy ones like michelin pilot cup´s it´s more than with normal pirelli pzeros

>>16843628

No but it's something I would like to have. I would trade the heated seats for a heated steering wheel any day of the week.

>>16843648
>would trade the heated seats for a heated steering wheel
What?! Heated seats keep you way warmer. I experienced heated steering wheel on a loaner ES 350. Nice, but not crucial.

I would never buy another car without heated seats. It's too nice in the Winter.

I remember driving to work in my old shitbox Civic and it would just start to heat up as I'm pulling into the parking lot. Ugh...

>>16843664

The thing is the heated seats in the BRZ are not the greatest compared to heated seats on an Acura TSX for example. They heat up your butt cheeks a little but definitely more gimmicky rather than useful. A poor attempt at heated seats in my opinion.

>>16843672
That's a bummer. Mine are great. I've never experienced bad heated seats.

I can say that my cooled seats are kind of gimmicky though. Just blows a little breeze up your taint area. Nothing on the back which tends to get sweaty in Summer.

>>16843681

Well I bought mine used with 25000 miles on it so maybe they're just worn out.

Love the car mostly tho

>>16843729
I've witnessed 100 and none were vapers. The meme is a lie.

>>16843601
they're not too bad. i got mine for 18k with 90k miles (109k now). i knew going it there would be repairs that could bankrupt you if you had them all done at a dealership. but as i said i was prepared to do as much shit myself as possible, and its been a great learning experience. i also think the value on the e39 m5 will be much like the e30 m3. i think i bought the car it at the lowest point they will ever be valued; 18k for a car thats sticker was 70k 15 years ago is pretty fuckin sweet. i think the appreciation in the coming years alone will pay for all of my repairs eventually, even though i honestly dont think i will ever sell it - they truly are amazing cars.

>>16843822
Your life is a lie.

>>16843717
That's probably because people who drive V8's aren't displacelets trying to compensate.
Or they think you rebadged a 328.

Pros:
>RWD
>Great power
>Great power delivery
>Solid handling, even at high speed
>Dat exhaust note
>Great aftermarket because shares many things with 370z
>Decent visability
>Robust drivetrain, people regularly take these well over 200k miles

Cons:
>21mpg AVERAGE on 93 octane tune
>Leather is getting beat up now that it is over 100k
>Stupid option packaging - Want LSD, BBK, and body. But don't want backup camera, heated seats, nav, and other shit that just make the car heavier and "more valuable to normies" so I didnt get the S version. Saved $4000 but OEM parts I'm looking for are high demand so they either aren't cheap or hard to find.

I like nearly everything about it. I do prefer some different stylings on other models but I'm more or less content. It holds the road very well, between second and third gear I can still pull away faster than I ought. It never fails MOTs either, very good. There is a slight design flaw inherent in these cars but it's not serious.Regular servicing will keep it sprightly.

I don't dislike anything about the car more that I wish I could afford to lavish money on her to really do it justice.

Hey guys, I need your help.

A friend of mine is getting his car repossessed. It's a 2011 Nissan Altima 3.5 SR. He told me he is going to let them take it monday, and that I can take any parts off it that I want.

My car is a 09 Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec V. It shares some parts with the Altima I'm pretty sure.

Is there anything I could remove to sell or add to my car?

What's wrong with it? $900 for a car with a rebuild 36K ago (and paperwork for it), a good look, mint seating, minor quibbles, working AC and heat, and new-ish tires on the rear. I mean it runs great and only has to make it through college.

You being so elitist on a chinese forum primarily dedicated to 90s asian shitboxes is completely unnecessary.

>>16847035
oh no it's slow as shit, that's why you floor it. The brakes are meh, I have the conversion kit to 4 rotors ready but I'm waiting on it to stop raining to do it. Steering is better than anything I've used so far.
Drove my brother's 1.5L I4 2016 Fusion and hated that shit. The steering is numb but either too light or too heavy depending on how you looked at it before turning and flooring that creates no noise and no speed. There's a also a fucking delay in pressing down the throttle which further diminishes any hopes I had for his car.

Anyway, it's just a college beater as my family is poor and my job doesn't pay too much (Wendy's + High School).

>>16846996
Meh

>>16847066
My key point remains: it was $900 for a good-enough car that runs well. This POS can at least be fun enough and cheap enough to throw around and not have to worry.

>>16843485
My brother has an '06, idk if the seats are different but personally I don't find them very comfortable, unless you're talking about the ride quality which is breddy gud.

I do agree about the absolute lack of anything that resembles steering feel though.

2014 Fiesta ST
Love: Handling, handling, blow off valve, handling
Hate: Everyone always asks me why I didn't get the Focus

>>16843114
2003 Mk4 GTI 1.8T
>Pros:
Nice and peppy, Can fit things in that trunk that I never thought I would, nice and light, put in a nice stiff suspension and some decent set of tires, handles nice when not understeering.
>Cons:
Understeers from hell when taking real tight turns at high speeds, a tune is needed at stock to make it any amounts of fun, also, the turbo is solid until 100k+ they can crack at anytime after that for some reason, also bad electrical placing in certain areas that can be fixed with just moving them around.

Love: handling, pedal feel, the overall driving feel is about a perfect match for me. i even think the power is just about right, even if its slow. also theres a fuckton of space with the rear seats folded down.

2006 Corolla LE.
Love: dead-on reliability. Starts every time. New tires give new lease on life. Handling's actually not bad. Quiet interior. Parts and maintenance are dirt cheap.
Hate: Hello plastic, wind noise at speed, won't handle as well as, say, a Honda or a Mazda, rattles and creaks that come with age, underpowered af with slushbox. Unmanly green.

All the people I shoot the shit with about cars like the FiST more than the FoST. Thought it was agreed upon the lil bit more torque and speed the FoST has isn't worth all the weight.

I also drive a 14 Ingot Grey FiST

>Pros
Small as shit and easy to park, handles like a dream, and the Recaros are easily the nicest seats I've had.

>Cons
It's small as shit. It's a glorified 4 seater, unless you're a kid, girl, or a manlet you're probably not fitting comfortably in the back. Ford really should have given the US the two door FiST option also.

Yes: Only fits one passenger, good on gas and tonnes of aftermarket/documented mods to be done
No: The shitty /o/-tier stigma of M.I.A.T.A, never truly feel like you can drive under that truck but it looks tempting, current lack of roll bar, ABS and airbags.

hate: semi automatic/ automatic transmission. Makes me not want to mod it in any way because I feel like it'll be a waste of money. Is is worth doing things to it if I plan on having it for a couple of years?

>>16848269
The size and weight difference is what turned me off the FoST, but nobody I've spoken with IRL gets that. As for the back seat people just deal with it; better to have leg room taken up by size constraints than piles of trash like most people's cars

2002 WRX Wagon

Like: Nice power, good utility, can slap the snow tires on and travel confidently in winter, tons of grip with summer tires on, handles well in general.
Dislike: Not that nice or comfy, paying the premium fuel meme tax sucks

Honestly it's hard to knock it. My last car was a normal Outback wagon and the only things I really wanted were the power and handling to be better, so WRX had the answer to both while retaining the upsides of the wagon.

>>16848939
The car shaking at speed has nothing to do with it being "light." It's a pigfat car. Get your wheels balanced.

Why do you all call your cars shittboxes?

you have low self esteem because you do not have the Audi?

FORD FALCON STATION WAGON 2002 AU
>what i like:
- its a big comfy couch
- motors so quiet can have a conversation
- was a one owner
- done under 300,000 kilometers (these cars will easy do one million kilometers)
- was run out model before BA (barra 6 engine)
so its one of the last ones
- barra will go in quite nicely will make good sleeper...
>what i dont like:
- some fucken idiot broke off aerial before i got it. so have to replace it
- headlining hanging down because AU and used shit glue
- factory headunit needs replace as cd player wont play cd's, any cd's in the bin it will go.
- passengers electric window not working
- paints fucked: needs repaint because clear coats fucked.

pepare for wallet rape when head gaskets and oil pump drive goes. these things EAT head gaskets oh and water pumps. had one been there, got rid of that

>>16849017

Thanks for the advice, but I've owned a few Subarus in the past and know their tendencies to lunch HG's and other things. If the engine goes, I order in a used EJ205 and put it in. Cheaper to just replace the engine than to re-do head gaskets and shit.

>>16849027
forgot to mention any parts on or for a subaru are expensive.

my first turbo rx7 had a 3.9 or 3.7 diff (80-90mph in 2nd gear, mild street port stock everything else). and ps deleted correctly with the seals cut out of the rack, was so easy to turn unlike this one. seller said the popups were broken, they were just unplugged

Car: Nissan S15 Silvia
Love: The power (tuned for 240kw at the wheels, or about 400hp at the engine), handling, braking. Fairly lightweight, rwd with a proper LSD. All-round awesome fun to drive. Good on fuel when driven off-boost. Styling. Been reliable too.

Hate: How much money I've dropped into it with mods. Exterior paintwork needs some attention. Dented rear quarter panel at skid-pan/drifting event. High theft target. Headlights glaze over easily. Button clutch is a PITA to drive on the street, but needed for the power level. Power/torque level is also at the limit of what the gearbox is capable of handling before exploding, so paranoia

97 F-250 HD

It was the last year that trucks still looked like trucks
So far it has towed anything I've thrown at it with no effort whatsoever
8' bed is awesome to have

speaker system is somewhere between subpar and just outright bad
