>>28785528what's the poor son yappin about?
Just buy a new car if you want it exactly how you want. What's with these poors complaining why used cars aren't what they would spec? Buy new if you want it a certain way.
>>28785466I will never understand convertibles. Fuck idiot boomers paying more for a car with the roof chopped off and replaced with a piece of cloth.

>>28785497I don't like the styling and it's fuckhueg. I am coming from Miata/8th gen Si/Integra. This POS feels bigger than the B5 Audi S4 was.> Then why buy it? Like what is even the point? You're buying a car with one of the most sophisticated track tuned suspensions ever put in a car of its price category to... drive around town in it?Exactly. I wanted an upgrade, which the Si is not given that the new one has 200 hp which is the same as my 8th gen Si. Furthermore, I think the total cost of ownership will be the same due to faster depreciation on the Si. To be fair, I didn't expect needing two set of wheels and pads being a shitton just in parts - don't want to wrench anymore, but definitely doing stuff like pads myself like usual.See above on why I didn't get the Supra. Other than that, the only thing in the running was really the GR86. I can't handle the Z not living up to its looks.It basically came down to there is nothing else to get and Hondas being fairly reliable, more so than really anything else in my experience. Plus I can wrench on it without checking the manual for anything other than torque specs. But again, I don't want to wrench anymore, so this is more if I have to. I don't give a shit about cars anymore. Maybe would if I had literally endless money and spare time. It's a small joy once in a while though.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>28785513>I will take your word for it, all I saw was the CTR getting smoked.Maybe watch the video you link? Like they literally go into depth about these things in the very video. The driver of the CTR's entire strategy was waiting for the GR Corolla to go into limp mode and catch up to it then. That strategy didn't play out as the video showed because there was too much built up time advantage before it went into limp mode, but that was the whole premise of the video. Did you just search it up on YT and link the video sight unseen?To be fair to the GR Corolla, you don't actually need that much modification on 2025/2026 model year GR Corollas because they updated the stock suspension in 2025. The new stock suspension is much better and it's no longer a requirement to replace it to make it a decent car. And, there is a permanent solution to the transfer case problem, if you're willing to void your warranty. So the GR Corolla can be made into a car that can be fun to take on track days -- it's just going to cost you more than a CTR will. The question becomes what's worth more -- a car a little bit faster on the track than a CTR, with no warranty, is substantially more expensive because of the aftermarket work needed, and with an absolutely awful interior and possibly the worst sound system of a car in its price category, or a car that is track capable full stock, has a really nice interior and sound system, and is cheaper? If you aren't married to getting an AWD car it's a really hard sell.
>>28785533¯\_(ツ)_/¯The GR is nu-male coded.
Just get a 911. Can track and daily it. Not that expensive to own due to low depreciation.
>>28785557I don't believe you 911 fags. It's the same problem as the C7 - fairly expensive, very high performance car that will have incredible wear if driven as intended and needs constant inspections and maintenance and you stealership is unaffordable.

i bought a brand new suv 2 years ago and today it has 20k miles and i checked the tranny ATF fluid and it already looks somewhat brownish.Should i change it? owners manual says to service it every 100k miles

White chad avoiding brown "people".
>>28784465No, that's actually me
>>28784375Congrats on not listing what vehicle or tranny. Stellar job. If it's a Subaru with a disposable CVT, get the fucking trans fluid, which will cost an arm and a leg, changed around 35-40,000 miles.
I am going to bed now and when I wake up I am calling the owner. I have found one in good nick low Kms good price less than 10 years old.

Post and discuss automobiles made in the past 10 years that you blieve will become prized classics that people will lust after in the future,try to abstain from obvious choices such as exclusive supercars and extremely low production models.
>>28784561>Golf Mogs Civic stockEven a Gulf R gets stomped by a Civic Type R. And that's comparing AWD to FWD. The FWD VWs are not even in the same performance category.There's a reason why the fastest lap time set by a FWD car at basically every track in existence is a FL5 Civic Type R. If you were right then that wouldn't be the case... but it is.
>>28772365Ignore the crybaby retards on this board. LC500 is definitely a future classic. They're holding their values remarkably well.
>>28784649that isn't what makes something a classic THOUGH
>>28784564lap times dont matter in the real world, I could also mebtion that the Golf Quarter mile record is currently 2 seconds ahead of the Civic quarter mile. In the real world EA888 is absolutely dominating the 4cylinder world and even spanking V8s well above its weight class like Honda USED to do. Everyone else is trying to play catchup with VW, copying their exact engine philosophy. Even if an example of a Civic is faster, it is because it adopted the technology that VW pioneered with common-rail direct-injection turbocharged cars.But the thread is questioning what's a classic, how could the modern Civic become a classic if its copying its drive train and exterior and interior styling from VW?
>>28785399>lap times dont matter in the real worldYou are missing the point so unbelievably hard I think it's intentional trolling at this point.>I could also mebtion that the Golf Quarter mile record is currently 2 seconds ahead of the Civic quarter mileYou're literally looking at base models. The Type R is not a base model. The Type R curbstomps the Golf GTI at these metrics. The FL5 Civic Type R has a 13.5 second quarter mile, whereas the Golf GTI has a 14.3 second quarter mile. Nearly a second faster.Your post is retarded and you are not paying any attention. The point I'm making is that this is the last generation any car company will produce a FWD "sports" car, and at the current moment the FL5 Civic Type R is ahead of every other FWD car in basically every metric that could be considered "speed". Normies love it when you can do a retrospective 10 years later and say "this 10 year old thing is still the best in its category", which is what the Type R is going to end up being. And that's what is going to make it a future classic.
Do RR cars have a single genuine advantage over MR cars, or do they simply exist for bragging rights?

RR layouts are great because they force you to not be a little bitch by killing you if you refuse to stop being one.

china is banning the one thing that is killing people in electric cars.i'm surprised that american and european automakers never thought of banning retractable door handles before china.https://www.autoblog.com/news/china-is-banning-tesla-style-retractable-door-handles-over-safety-concerns
>>28784496It's pretty intuitive. It looks like a door handle so you won't go searching for it elsewhere, it has a textured dotted spot where you'd want to put your thumb, and if all else fails, poking and clawing at it you'll eventually get it to pop out. It'll take a couple seconds more than a regular pull handle, but it'll open, unlike Tesla's handle.
