>>27607234It's bad because it gives designers an excuse to be lazy and create cars with horrible blindspots.
>>27607262

Discuss any activities you have done with your vehicles involving offroading, camping, or similar outdoors activities.
>>27607093Fake n gay
>>27606810Yes, last midsize with a solid n/a V6.
>>27606428Offroading was one of those things I always wanted to do in my early 20s but everyone worked low entry jobs right after high school. Everyone's daily however was either a crew cab truck, early 2000s SUV, and the occasional Jeeps mostly grand Cherokee, few TJs, and whatever subaru outback at the time. We never attempted anything all that technical nor that required low range other than to show off going up a dirt hill or through sloppy soft mud. Though we never needed 4 wheel drive all that often either. A 2wd sedan with some momentum could tackle 98% of the trails we went to regularly in the summer or late spring. Everyone had worn out tires that only had business around suburban streets. I think all of the fun got sucked out of the hobby/adventures due to it being someones daily driver with shitty tires, high mileage, and need of an oil change. Shit wages and little ability to travel all that far along with only short spontaneous back road places to enjoy a tall beer and smoke. While still being paranoid about getting home as it near towards sunset on a Friday or occasional week night. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMyd4sfyNz0
>>27606956sounds like you need to explore BLM or NF land in the western mountain states. avoid the few popular hiking/side by side/shooting areas and you will be alone for the most part

Fucking rust, how do I fix this shit
>>27607123You don’t
You become one with the rust.
>>27607123Spray this shit everywhere there is rust, let it soak for 24 hours. Then clean the goop off at the carwash with the high pressure nozzle.
>>27607231After it dries, then spray this on everything that was previously rusted.

Every man should have the experience of buying a brand new car AT LEAST once in his lifetime. The new car smell, knowing nobody has farted on your seats, knowing all the maintenance will be on you and seeing an impeccably clean engine bay and flawless paint job is just a unique experience, like having sex with a virgin girl
>>27606985wait a minute those pumpkins make a butthole
>>27607087And not just any butthole…
>>27606625>new car smell Ah yes the off gassing of various plastics, and other chemicals, surely will enhance your health and boost your hormonal profile (if you're a tranny).
>>27607098I love the ability people on this site have of taking things I like and shitting on them in a way I can't disagree
>>27606959no they sell them as demo cars. Dunno which hellhole that anon lives in, probably the south.
>see car for sale>saw it at the auction last week>literally didn't even bother taking new photos, they are just listing it using photos from the auction
>>27600748Fuck you bot
>>27600713The hilarious thing is some dealerships use an app where you punch in the make/model of a car and it will put an outline on your screen that you line up with the vehicle, except it still looks terrible because they're phone shots at high angles because fat fuck dealership monkeys can't be assed to do more than the bare minimum amount of work

Somebody tell me theres a turbo kit out there for this shit.
>>27604607Don't worry about the jacket, I got a theory that it fucks with cameras.
>>27604681Ehhh. Indian quality leaves a lot to be desired. They're ok. But cost more overall
All turbo “kits” are garbage (trask, etc). You’ll make the same or more power N/A. If you want to boost it, start reading about turbocharging fundamentals and do it right. Anything less than 200hp isn’t worth it in a turbocharged application.
>>27604508Is the air mask for more efficiently huffing your own farts?
>>27606230No the bitch's. You get a nice braphog from a local bar who is stuffed with wings and beer. The fatter ones brap more but you have to account for the tail weight. My personal advice is find a 200lb or less wrinkly skinny smoker chick. They brap almost as much but in smaller burst, though they are shaky and have a weak grip so watch the wheelies.

>>27606896It's a Changan sl03 with a body kit
>>27606896Idrc about Mazda iibqhwy
>>27606896not sure why ppl are upset? It's a chink car only for chinks, wake me up when import laws allow this to be exported to relevant markets
>>27606896Somehow worse than "I wish Mazda made a rotary range extended series hybrid", and then they made a SUV, because nobody buys cars, but nobody bought the SUV either.
Is it just me or was Renault unparallelled when it came to D segment interiors in the 80s? Seriously I look at this and the 190D looks very low rent in comparison.Related to that (but from the 70s), I think the W123 was a big step down in interior design quality for Mercedes. It seems absolutely tacky to me. I love the W124 though.
>>27605123>if youre not a woman transition now you freak, you certainly are already making the same purchasing decisions as oneoooof
>>27605315"great v6" is an oxymoron. V6 is an emissions compliance device, not a valid engine configuration for performance
>>27607002I don't see how engine configuration has anything to do with emissions. Packaging efficiency sure, and a v6 is objectively a better configuration for performance than an inline 6 because of polar moment of inertia, you could even argue it´s better than a boxer 6 because it leaves more room for manifolds and venturi tunnels.
>>27607027>I don't see how engine configuration has anything to do with emissions.Good place to stop reading
>>27607107So you don´t read anything sensible, no wonder you are wrong.Hell the first version of the renault 25 v6 turbo didn´t even have a catalytic converter.
How does someone from the states import a euro wagon that’s newer than 25 years
>>27603640Most of the replies in this thread are wrong. That specific car was imported as a tourist vehicle that was supposed to go back to Europe after a year, but the dmv issued a license plate when it wasn't supposed to, when the owner tried to renew, someone found the mistake and the feds were notified. Leading to a choice of either exporting it (to a non-land border country) or have it scrapped.
>>27603640Register in Montana or South Dakota. You can register any vehicle and don't have to live there.
>>27603640bmw e61 tourings up to production date 09/1/2006 are exempt from the 25 year import ban. Get a 535d.
>>27605882How can you tell what’s exempt from the import ban. Also e61? Does that mean the m5 e61 is exempt
>>27603640Get your Canadian citizenship lol.
celica alltrac or eclipse GSX?
>>27603580Let's ignore that nippon 1000x folded steel still rusts much faster than any other brands under the same conditions
>>27605332>>27606750Initially Diamond-Star Motors was a 50-50 joint venture between Chrysler and Mitsubishi. However, in 1991 the Japanese company purchased its partner's interest, and thereafter the manufacture of Chrysler vehicles was on a contractual basis. Chrysler sold its equity stake to Mitsubishi in 1993, and Diamond-Star Motors was renamed Mitsubishi Motors Manufacturing America (MMMA) on July 1, 1995.[3] Despite the departure, the two companies have maintained various co-operative manufacturing agreements since and considered all vehicle produced until 1995[9] as Diamond Star Motors. No Mitsubishi Sirius engine, no DSM.
>>27606798Every car company has their rotboxes. 1990s-2000s GMs and Fords (even 2010s like GMT900s rot out QUICK)MkV VWs W210 Mercedes E36/46 BMWs (even E90/92s are rotting out)Now try to find a rusty 2000s Toyota or Honda. They actually got them right by that time.
>>27606992>2010s like GMT900s rot out QUICKcan confirm mine was new off the dealer lot and rusting beyond believe 3 years after buying.
>>27606989Well according to your logic the 2G GSX isn't a DSM either. I've owned a non-turbo 2G DSM, there were DSM stickers under the hood.
I even seem to find a video of it without them advertising some kind of a product brand. Do you wax it and how often ? How long does it take ? Scotty says wax every 3months.There is an option to "water-wax" on manual carwashes but I don't think it helps much given it cost 50 cent.
>>27607050this takes tar off
>>27605830I wax ur mum's muff
>>27606364>1-2x per yearthat's bullshit. as long as you use the right kind of soap and microfiber cloths you only need to have it applied every ~3 years. It depends on how often you wash though too, if you're washing every week all year long it might be less than 3 years.
>>27607061I was shocked at how nice that stuff is to use
>>27605830I have never waxed a single of my cars in my life and the only time I washed one of them I drove through a field and got actual bullshit on it and didn't want it to get inside

Who makes the turbos for GMs, and are they the same company that makes the turbos for the CHAMP/Indy cars that are faster than F1?I'm surprised they don't also use Mitsubishi like every Jap company since those are pretty dependable. 100s of miles on some ppls here in the US. I have 90k on mine. So. . . who makes GM turbos and why do they suck so much? Why does Mitsu make the best despite them being a shitter auto company.
>>27606942BorgWarner probably
>>27606965Well on their website they only do the Indy cars and don't confirm the passenger cars. >>27606942OP, turns out, of all the fucking people Garrett makes them.https://turbochargersdirect.com/new-genuine-oem-garrett-turbocharger-for-chevy-cruze-sonic-trax-buick-encore-1-4l-tur-101467-gtn/I wouldn't believe that if I didn't read it.
IHI
>>27606942>I'm surprised they don't also use Mitsubishithey did on the typhoon/cyclone.
>>27607053Not in the know on turbos. Why is it surprising that Garrett makes them for GM?
Imagine if people had to post their own car with proof (or lack thereof) before criticizing another car. That would reduce discussion on this board by 93% haha. Would be the ultimate troll LOL.
>>276040811/4 times would be better.
>>27605301>Many have never even been in a BMW much less owned one.It's always the poorest of the poors ready to open their mouths about what cars they can't afford should be like. Newsflash, BMW is not interested in selling third-hand base model 3 serieses to you, the only kind you can afford. You are not the target audience for any manufacturer for that matter. You eat sloppy seconds of others, so shut the fuck up.
>>27604081Meh. I'll proudly post my Corvega and then laugh at your boring shit box.
>>27607020
>>27604081I agree. If you can dish it but cant take it youre a faggot. I dont trash anyones cars but I dont mind anyone shitting on my civic since generally people hate eggshits anyways
