V6, V8, V12. What do we actually need and which one is overrated?
I5 is best
>>18326250I hope to God this is bait
>>18326981Those have been swapped into E30s
>>18331829Redneck spotted.
>>18335581But he's not wrong
Best first car for around 20000€?What I had in mind:-Toyota GT86-Nisan 350z-Porsche Cayman (not sure, would need to be an old one..)I don't want it to be too expensive to maintain. I don't want it to break and be a fucking mess if I need to use it daily for a while.I was considering the 350z but got told it's too expensive in the gas department or something. I got told GT86 is cheap to keep and pleasant to drive.
>>18333566show me a car with good quality and cheap maintance? if you wanna spend 20k, than you dont buy a peugeot
>>18333563i dont like how it looks mate
up
>first car>no experience>350zRip Op
>>18332113In Germany they sell for 10k-20k since they have the brembo brakes used in the NISMO build stock. Plus they're pretty rare.
What's going to be the next meme car after the aw11?when I first came here it was the E30, then it necessary the Miata, now it's this.what's next?

>>18333233GT86. It will be a while til they get down to chump change meme level, but I can definitely see a wave of 'just get a used FRS' posts for those whose budget is higher but still under 10K.
>>18335428I love that car and I want one

It seems 9/10 cars are either white, grey or black, why aren't more bright colours? are people scared of bright colours these days or something?
>>18326363Well. don't kill yourself just yet anon!
>complaining about car colorsthere are these places that will paint your car any color you want if you give them moneyor you could diy if you're feeling kinky
>>1832613410-20 years ago, most cars were tan Camrys. 30-40 years ago, most cars were silver or brown. Nothing has changed for commuter boxes. There was no golden age of Chad drivers driving flaming yellow Pintos. Pencil necked accountant drones have always driven beigeboxes to work, and the average blue collar worker wouldn't give a rat's ass about the color of his work truck. Besides that, most commuter boxes are being styled ridiculously now as a response to your sort calling 90s and 00s cars boring as fuck. That's why we now have an edgy Prius that looks like it just drank dog piss.

>>18333827PortalsWay too hecking heavy to be worth it. But portal axles are a thing.
>>18334870Portals are nice, but good god they're fucking expensive. I'd almost rather bust a diff than pay for that shit; better yet, just tack on some cheap armor.
>>18334870Reduction hubs don't necessarily have to be portals. Heaps of earthmoving good and agricultural gear use planetary drive hubs in an effort to minimise crown wheel and ultimately diff pumpkin size. Also an expensive retrofit.Guess my point is there's a reason diffs on heavier duty vehicles get physically bigger and bigger externally.
>>18335039>earthmoving goodFuck you phone
>>18333536It's indefensible, XJs are gay. That's why they're called CheroCars. Body on frame is the only real way to have an off road truck/SUV. XJs are basically "battlewagon" tier.

Are they any good. And what the best ones for my shitbox corolla 2006
Self bump
>>18335444Maybe go for some Michelins. I would say their better.
>corolla Doesn't really matter. If her continentals or Michelin, and nothing wide. It's your shitbox and you don't want to slide in the rain because boy racer wanted wide tires for his commute.
>>18335493>>18335501I second both of these cant go wrong with them. Get some all season or something along those liens to get max mileage out of them and still decent handling/ride quality.
How much fresh can you handle?

Why does E85 smell so good?Also what octane do you fill up your car with, /o/? You don't cheap out and go with a lower octane because you're poor, do you?
>>18335320Oh yeah? Well, you're gay.
Diesel. I simply use the pump that says diesel on it.
>>18335312are you sure not an abo?
>>18335320COrrect...until get an actual 93 tune, my car recommends 87.
>>18335312I run 95 in my beamer because it's all you can find around here.98 is only available in big cities
Post you are car! It's been a while since I've seen a comfy bread :)
Before I cleaned it up a little. Had to take off body panels to assess the damage.

>>18334042Thanks anon. Sometimes I think how easy it would be to replace with any other car, but I just can't let it go.

what do you think, /o/ ? stuff to note:>it's very fast
>>18335371>The 570S/570GT are by far their best-looking cars.the 720 looks way better.
>>18335376I completely disagree. The 720 looks fussy and overdesigned.
>>18335372When he struck the wall, the wheel slammed against his head, pressing it hard against the headrest, and also the most fatal injury was that a part of the suspension pierced his helmet and his skull, which basically made him brain dead almost instantly
>>18335313are you sure?
>>18335427It's amazing the differences the 'invisible' safety improvements make. Senna would have walked away if he was driving a modern F1 car.
So insurance just totaled my car after i hit a deer last week. I'm getting roughly 7 thousand back and i live out in the country and own livestock so i'd like to buy a truck. Can /o/ please give me some advice and or tips about buying trucks?
>>18331577What's your price point? Was the totaled car financed?
>>18331931Drove one for a week while my car was being worked on. Decent power, comfortable (but boring) interior, I hauled a bed load of cut wood, with a trailer full of the same. I cant speak for the reliability personally, but all in all, a good all around, no frills work truck.
Be ready for crappy handling, if you can even call the wallowy wobblematic suspension of a truck a form of handling. I'd suggest smaller Japanese trucks, as they're still decent road going vehicles. Alternatively, go full on dually diesel and drive slow as crap but also haul a literal house behind it. Big trucks that aren't huge just sacrifice work ability for exactly the same awful road manners. Small trucks can at least be driven like a normal car but have the bonus of being able to haul a bit.
>>18331577F250 crewcab 4x4 turbo dieselBest truck you can buy

is an smg convertible the cheapest way to get a well cared for e46 m3?they're cryptonite to fuccbois and ricersnice as nice looking as the coupe but a hardtop helps, and the exhaust note is real nice with the top downthe smg isn't great but it's actually not difficult to convert it to a 6 speed manual since the smg is literally just a 6 speed with motors bolted to it
>>18332267>the best fuckin kindThat hardtop looks terrible though, the roofline looks all wrong at the back.
>>18329752Just watch out cuz scummy teenagers will stab your roof and rip the fabric.
>>18332537i dunno, feels kind of older bmw boxy
>>18333789No, it feels like someone used the box transform tool on a E46 coupe roof, stretched it rearward then up in the back. Looks like it was designed by a person with bad vision, not like a homage to an E30
