At what point is a car no longer considered a shitbox

When it's not American.

>when it is scarce
>expensive to buy
>you can't afford to lose it (sentimental or financial reasons)

>If it's made after 2006

Idk thought they were all shitboxes. Thats not just a thing we call them? Like calling people autists on here. Everyones an autist and everyone drives a shitbox.

No, a shitbox is generally a car that someone has kept alive beyond the point a normalfag would have sold it. Typically 150k miles or more. Tiny hatchbacks and entry level sedans are "econobox" when new. Everything else is whatever it's normally called, unless it's old/battered enough to be considered a shitbox.

Everyone actually is an autist here and all our cars actually are shitboxes, that's why you hear the terms so much.

It is considered a shitbox if it's running costs exceed its resale value.

For a car not to be a shitbox it needs to tick at least 4 of the following boxes:

>at least uncommon
>more than 3k - 5k
>not dented to shit/other visual neglect
>less than 100k miles
>not repaired on the cheap/nigger rigged
>not modded to shit (actual upgrades are okay)

Age doesn't mean shit when these criteria are met.

Anyone agree?

When it's well taken care of and old enough to be a classic.

You are correct in everything but the >100k miles thing

Some cars (as in AW11s and SW20s) are near impossible to find with less than 100k miles, and when you do find them, they are over 15k at least.

>toyotas
>not shitboxes
ha. nice meme.

Anything some autist online doesn't like is a shitbox if they throw a loud enough tantrum.

So does my 1992 Lexus sc 400 with 246k on the odometer classify as a shit box?

When it's worth 6k or more.

when the engine bay contains a rotary engine

>>17189472
Yes.

Way too many miles for a normal car, even though it's perfectly fine for a Yota.

Did you also brush the rear (visible) part of the bolt carrier yourself?
Also

Nigger thats the cheap paint from the century paint peeling off the carrier from use.The only corrosive ammo i own is 8mm for my hakim.
Also the hand guards are not laminate that's just the grain of the wood.The dye i used really likes to bring out the grain
