I'm going for an 80's aesthetic on my next car I get. However, I'm not loaded with money and I have trouble finding a nice, affordable car with that 80's vibe. So, I challenge you to...
>find a car made between 1980 and 1989
>have it be under $10,000
>has to have every 80's aesthetic possible
>bonus points for gullwing doors, pop up headlights, spoilers, etc
>bonus bonus points for automatic
Good luck!

Subaru XT
In the meantime, I'll post aesthetic pictures to keep the gears turning
>>16995325
Something something Nissan, something something MR2, something something FC RX-7.
Real answer, if you can find one thats original or not beat to shit, is a Mitsubishi Starion/Chrysler Conquest

>Mitsubishi Starion
Came to post this
>>16995342
Very affordable, only $2,500! Give's me ample room to allow paint jobs, rims, all the little touches that add up over time. Very nice!
>manual
Fuck, looks like I'm learning how to drive stick.
60 series Celica/Supra, Nissan Pulsar, MA70 Surpa (lol headgasket)

My fucking fellow african american gentlemen.
>>16995433
if you prefer auto there are plenty of auto Firebird's out there
>>16995433
Alternative to >>16995496 and Camaros
>>16995342
Also came to say Starion, total money pit but that styling.
Honorable mention:
Porsche 944 - can you still get one of these for under 10k?
Saab 900 Turbo - no 80's aesthetic really except the goofy overall look.
Nissan Pulsar NX - pop up headlights, masked taillights, probably dirt cheap.

>0 to 60 in just 7.2 seconds
>thanks to its 5 liter V8
And they wondered why people buy Japanese.
>>16995559
While the 305 was a piece of shit and 7.2 seconds is slow, keep in mind the fastest japanese car in 1984 was the Z31 turbo while could only manage 7.4 seconds.
>>16995516
In Germany the 944 start at 3k€ and you can get a decent one for about 5k

Is this aesthetic enough?

>>16995325
73-87 Chevy either single cab pickup, 3+3, blazer or suburban for sub-$3000 and the rest to ls swap and suspension on it.
>>16995605
They're dirt cheap just about everywhere.
You can't get a decent one at any price though, those simply never existed.
>>16995325
Sure it's MY 1995 but the car itself is from the 80s

A couple people in my city drive these. I always get excited when i see them.
85-88 Toyota Cressida
2-3k for a decent one
great if you like 80s boxy look
>>16995867
>>16995756
Good luck finding one that looks like that.
Get a BMW 3 series E30.
>>16995863
Why? You have a thing for Swedish tanks?
>>16995516
>pulsar

(You)
You are demonstrating EXACTLY why your country/ISP is banned.
>>16995906
You could buy a 4chan pass and bypass the country/ISP rangeban.
>>16995906
You don't get banned for no reason. Evidently you posted like a retard, and your narcissistic "I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE" attitude confirms this.

THE ONE DAMN THREAD WITH ANY POTENTIAL ON THIS GODFORSAKEN BOARD AND IT ENDS UP LIKE THIS. I WANT THE OLD /O/ BACK

>>16995877
Yeah I'm pretty sure I never will but I did find this:
https://orangecounty.craigslist.org/cto/6083306904.html
Yay or nay?
>>16996000
whats matter
>>16995876
god damn that is one supremely ugly interior. the fuck is up with the breadbox with the fake molded plastic stitching in the middle of the steering wheel? they didnt even have airbags back then what the fuck in inside of that thing? why does the brutalist architecture steering wheel have only 2 vertical spokes? what is it supposed to be, a hydroelectric powerstation dam? this kind of forgettable cancer should have followed it's course-- being forgotten but no, here we are in 2017 and shills keep rehashing this FUCKING OFFENSIV EYESORE TRASH over and over and over and over and over and over and over
>>16995325
Here, have a C4 Vette. The dash in these is pure 80's retro-future.
>>16995800
Hell yeah, ive got mine sitting outside
Honda Preludes were nice looking cars.
I know they're not super high HP cars or anything, but best of the 80's.
>>16998675
I think it's neat.
Easy. Volvo 480 Turbo.
>>16998650
Matter is what you're made up of, anon.
>>16995756
Still sad I will never have one.

>>17000338
>slow and ugly
Sounds like its right up OPs ally. Old cars aren't powered by magic, they're slow as shit.
Obviously a Fiero with a body kit
>>16995325
Any turbo dodge from the 80s. Can be had in any body style (including a mini van!) as well as auto or manual. Plus easy as hell to pump boost.
CA5
>>16995516
NA 944 can be easily found for $5k and lower. The turbos start to creep closer to 10k
:D ITS SO 80S!
I can here the synthesizers in my head just looking at it.
>>16995333
Are you the same neo 80s faggot that keeps making threads on every board dumping the same fucking shit over and over?
>>16996000
OP here, thank you! I personally didn't think my thread would live for more than a few hours. Glad to see some appreciation for cars from such a beautiful era

nope, this is actually the first thread I've ever made on /o. I mostly lurk, but I thought this thread was a good idea
