Why does Gen Z want to larp as the older generation so bad? The fuck wrong with them?
>>520195972the same reason why we millennials feel nostalgic about the 50's
you are the problem
>>520195972Taste! You either have it or you don't!
>>520196131>the same reason why we millennials feel nostalgic about the 50'sLulwut, is this a thing in Finland? US millennials view the 50s as this oppressive hell world where they couldn't suck as many cocks in public as they would've wanted.
Current world is so fucked and they're hopeless about the future, so the only way to move elsewhere is into the past. There's nowhere else physically to go, and they're too weak to make something happen in the real world. Also do not fall for the 'old car' meme, anons. It is not worth it unless you are genuinely wealthy and have a serious passion for it.>inb4 but bro this old car is so cool and not that expensive! trust!No.I got lucky with my "classic" car, it's still great, old beautiful V8 coupe, but that's just it: lucky.
>>520195972Those 850s were one of the best BMW models they ever created. Followed by the more boxier looking 525 series of the mid 90s. All the new ones I see now look gay and retarded and I wouldn't even know they were BMW if it wasn't for the outrageously oversized flared nostrils they slapped on the front.
I was born in the 80s and also want a classic car.
Is this meant to be some big mystery? New car designs are so completely controlled by the boardroom that they look identical.
>>520195972I want a classic because I don't want my car hacked....
>>520195972Driving a classic manual transmission car, even from the 1990s, is objectively good taste. It's not a LARP. Bad example.
>>520195972They've intrinsically associated new with bad and old with good in terms of products, and they're right.If it wasn't for the fact that phones and computers had internet (An old invention) they'd not use those either.
>>520196991Loved that car as a kid, then I forgot it existed for a couple decades.
>>520195972People will always look at older things like they are better. It eluded them so they want it.
>>520195972Any car built after 2010 is a piece of shit, and 90% of the ones before that. Modern cars are fucking whiteware. Some health 'n' safety bitch has kicked all the fun out of them, they're deliberately inoffensive like millennialcore gray walls, and they're built by fucking insects.
>>520195972Fuck off, we just want cars that don't look plastic and gay.
>>520195972Last year I sold my 1986 mint-condition MR2 to a 25 year old black kid. For $25K! I couldn't believe it. He just had to have it because "I love everything about the 80s". He couldn't even drive stick; I drove during the test drive. He brought his mechanic to inspect it, and then agreed to pay my asking. It was in museum condition with only 22K miles, but come on man, it's almost 40 years old. Oh well, I didn't tell him that I paid $8K for it six years ago, and put about $2K into replacing engine components. It was a real head scratcher.
>>520195972People want older cars because they dont have an onboard jew telling them their sensor has blown and their car wont start now
>>520196131I do not feel nostalgic for the 1950s.
>>520195972Based Z, for once. I sold my Integra to an enthusiastic kid.
>>520195972GenZ is living in one of the most sterile/sovless societies ever. Of course, they will lust after anything that has sovl.
>>520195972Modern cars are pretty damn boring and not suitable for a hobbyist wrench monkey.
>>520197607>don't look plastic and gayZastava will do faggot
>>520196552>V8 coupewhat is it ?
>>520198002Monaro.
take all the shitty, overpriced technology out and install the best sound system.child slaves don't need to mine critical minerals (which poisons clean drinking water anyway) just so your car makes a fucking smoothie in the glove compartment
>>520195972I fucking hate journalistsWe want old cars because1. You can actually fix them yourself2. They dont break nearly as common as new cars3. They dont have Goytech (TM) tracking devices installed in them4. Theyre usually more comfortable and better designed (bench seats, ash trays, cigarette lighters, knobs/switches > screens, etc;I was born in 2004, my car is older than I am. All but one of my friends cars are older than they are (excluding the oldheads I know). I will NEVER buy a car made past 2008 (as a rule of thumb).
Modern cars are absolute ASS. soulless spyware ridden nanny overengineered cuckboxes. Buying a 90s or 2000s era car with hydraulic steering, a tested 6 or 8 cylinder motor and not having gay ass screens everywhere is just good taste and prudent
>>520195972It's true though, most new cars look similar to each other, and there are limited colors to cut down on production cost. Everything about the styling of cars today is absolute dog shit and that is a fact. You can just randomly look up an old car from the 1960's and even if it's a fucking station wagon it will have more style than any mass produced car today.
tbqh cars looks a lot better now than they did in the early 00s
Nice shitty low effort thread there op.I'm millennial and I've never had an issue with Gen Z.Your shill farm has failed to make an effect feel bad as you desperately use your vpn's to "debunk" me.
>>520195972Old cars are more reliable too
>>520198049solid effort
>>520198126how did we go from this
>>520198299...to THIS???
>>520195972Ok boomer
>YOU WAN CHICKEN RICE??
>>520198299Don’t you do it…
>>520195972>jews create an entire era based on cheap chinkshit which is generic and soulless with planned obselence>people naturally flock to an era in which things were built to last and had more interesting designswhat a concept
>>520198299>transformers sticker
>>520198332I blame women, and fags.
>>520195972>boringmore like gay
>>520198299maybe I'm thinking mostly of every day Japanese and American cars. Shit like corollas, civics, Mazda 3s, ford focus, etc. The early 00s were extremely soulless
>>520198575>any decals/stickers>anything dangling off the mirrorDegrading. Still great era of BMW. I still miss my E36 despite it just being a naturally aspirated straight6, nothing special performance-wise. But was beautiful, aged very well inside and out. E30-E46 have aged gracefully.
>>520195972New ones have crayola colors and designs
>>520195972Pop up lights are the most soul thing on a car
>>520195972All new cars look like brand because of European and American regulations. Most SUVs are classified as light trucks and mandatory crumple zones and tall head lights are required
>>520196131>we millennials feel nostalgic about the 50'sHHAHAHAHAHAHAH whaaaat?!?!?!?
>>520198332The ugly grille is for the Chinese market.
Boring? Or completely overpriced dogshit?
>>520195972the little zoomers around town fucking love my fox body mustang, I'll tell you that much
>>520198753si si vergarossa, go fuck yourself and your shitty cars
>>520198737>>anything dangling off the mirrordisagree to some extent is your monaro a cv8?
>>520195972Gen Z gets more based by the day.
>>520198299also reminder that the 00s produced blobshit like this
>>520198731That looks like a happy car with a nice character. It's an econobox and doesn't pretend to be anything else. Even styling 20 years ago had more class. Now everything is angry and covered in vents pretending to be a sports car. The newest civics dont look as bad as the fk8s but still it's everywhere. Even the rav4 looks le angery for no reason.
>>520197722I love my AW11. Just hit 200k and I bought a spare engine and tranny combo that has 110k on it. They are awesome, but I wouldn't pay what you asked for one.
>>520198952Nah. Because we have this now. People need to apologize to chris bangle right fucking now
>>520195972Don't blame them. New cars are overpriced, unreliable dogshit that looks like they were designed by matchbox/hotwheels infatuated children on bar napkins.End to end, soulless dogshit. Go on, find me a single exception.
>>520198119Cars had identities back then and now it's the same goyslop design for every brand.It's like race mixing, it just give uglyness and inefficiency.
>>520198816And yet it's sold everywhere. Curious that.
Why would zoomers like anything marketed to them and why is that something you want?
New cars just suck with the way the stick unnecessary stuff in front of you and try to kill youhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HauQtcj7UTM
>>520195972Im a millenial and sympathize with them. Everything is fake and gay now.I fully appreciate how so many Gen Z kids want older cars and are listening to the same music I did in middle/high school.>>520197188>>520197607>>520197753>>520197851All of this
>>520199188Yes this is just one of the many downsides of integrating our economy with Asia. The worst being an increase in Asian eccentricities like normalized corruption in our society, causing an immune response.
>>520196336I'm wish could get a preludethose were the coolest semi affordable car
>>520196336That's because you are a faggot and need to be forced back into the closet.
>>520196131Do you?I'm GenX, I just want my 80s and 90s back; I don't want anyone else's pretend nostalgia.
“They don’t make em like they used to” is especially applicable to automobiles where you can’t even perform basic work yourself.
>>520199572kek
>>520195972>tfw you will never owe a r34
>>520199527>wrong wheel drivenah, 240sx was the real affordable hotness
>>520195972You can't honestly tell me that a Prius is sexier than that car.
>>520195972>too boringBecause they’re unreliable pieces of shit and fixing anything is much harder.
>buy modern car>filled with computers and gadgets>fixing it is a pain in the ass, if even possible without sending back to the manufacturer>buy old car>everything just works>anyone with some tools and youtube can fix it unless it's serious, in which case any shop canModern cars suck dick and everyone knows it
>>520199709by r34 you mean an r34 GTR right? kids seem to just say "r34" like that alone is good, an r34 base model is nothing special
>>520199633OBD2 systems aren't expensive. The cars work the same, and yes you can perform all that yourself. The wiring systems are much less shitty than a British car with Lucas in the 1980s and 1990s.
>>520199718>lhd>nipboxpik1
Why is everybody complaining about how new cars are just unreliable? Nowadays even cheap cars are passing 100k without a sweat which is a far cry from the 80s. Survivorship bias is strong with this argument
>>520199878Because not everyone is aussie autist. I’m not going to specify every little detail just because I want to make your brain suffer.
>>520199998>Nowadays even cheap cars are passing 100k without a sweatnot from what ive heard and seen
>>520199998This is definitely true but it's such an effort to try and parse some sort of nuance in the whole "old car good new car bad" thing in terms of objective measures. Not worth the hassle over any thread on 4chan.
>>520200056funny but its not just you that does this, its a common theme amongst you kiddos
>>520200113Guess things over here are held to a higher standard.
>>520195972They just want to be able to feel what it is like to have been a real person for once in their existence. Modern "life" is so evil that nobody born after 2010 is even alive.
>>520200180no im talking about muttland jew ess aye
>>520199986It's the same car as the s14 but just built with the correct wheel orientation. My condolences to truly brainrotted jdm larpers buying rhd vehicles in lhd countries
>>520195972>too boring>take timing chain off>can't get it back on>car starts blinking UNATORIZED USER STEP BACK BATTERY EJECTION IMMINENTsure. boring.
>>520196131lol
>>520200255For some reason I don’t believe you
>>520199718Depends on the application. For daily street driving a fast FWD is fine. Not as fun as burning out with RWD and dropping the clutch, but it's not like you're gonna be Gran Turismo mode 24/7.
>>520200257akchully thats an s13 with a 180/240sx front, they call this a onevia, the opposite of a sileighty
>>520199998Engines are being downsized and turboed. Overengineered and overstressed. This is because of fuel economy regulations and emissions and other fake bullshit. Engines used to be big and relaxed. Understressed and overbuilt. Look at the old tacomas and tundras with the v6s and v8s and the new ones with the stressed little turbo i4s blowing up. Toyotas reputation is going down the tubes over it.
>>520200328i watch an autist on jewtube
Over 80% of all Porches built, ever, are still on the road. Think about that a while.
>>520200428There's always a naturally aspirated option. I went with a 3.8L V6 pumping out 290 horse. Blows the fucking doors off any piece of shit from the 1990s that wasn't a hundred grand back then.
>>520200377okay I kneel
>>520195972Because they're our grandparents reincarnated. Super fucking tacky, they want big hair, mustaches, beige walls, all kinds of ugly shit. It's the 70s all over again literally because it's the same souls recycled.
>>520200584
What about a black 2006 Jaguar XK 4.2 V8?
>>520196131Wanting obedient women and cheap houses isn't nostalgia, it's common sense.
I haven't drive a car newer than 2011 I am 38 ama
>>520199283Based vett enjoyer. I'm looking for a C4 beater for under 10k right now, I'm gonna beat the ever living piss out of it on back gravel roads anon, and I'm very excited about that.
The zoomettes don't know how what they are doing; by dressing like girls did when I was 14, you are making me vengefully horny.
>>520200428Those types of engines have always been around and tech has made them a lot more viable. Sure it’s not some mopey v6 that barely moves and gets no more than 13 mpg, but it’s all trade offs. Generally things are pretty good now barring manufacturer defects with supply chains being slightly fucked.
>>520200530>naturally aspiratedEven then, it's an electronic fuel-injected engine with computer-controlled valve timing. You can't even put a set of cams on it without having special tools and secret knowledge about who the whole system works. That 290HP V6 is possible due to some stupidly edge mode engineering and trickery that makes the entire thing way more fragile and prone to failures.
>>520199056Dear God, that's like slapping cancer imagery in cigarettes isn't it
>>520195972Zoomers are an enigma. They bashed old shit but now want it. Well they can't afford a classic car anyways. And newsflash zoomers classic cars suck on MPG, safety, maintenance fees and the like. You don't want a classic car. You should get a vintage one. Like a Toyota Celica.
>>520200530What truck, the frontier? That's a good one and I hope they keep making it. If it aint broke dont fix it. Yota didn't listen though. It's a trend overall though. You'll still be able to buy NA V8s they'll just be expensive as hell
>>520200464Don't turn people on to Porches. They think they're money-pits when that couldn't be further from the truth. I miss my old Boxster.
>>520195972Everything after 2001 is shit and everyone knows it. Every car built in the past 15 years is basically the same car, but especially the newer ones with the fucking huge touchscreen.
>>520200608>>520200961BEEP BEEP BEEP BATTERY EJECTION IMMINENT STEP BACK USER STEP BACK
>>520200924It's not edge mode it's just better than what crappy timing a carburetor can provide. When those pieces of shit were blowing out at 100,000km because they were hammering themselves apart a modern engine will do 250k easy with regular oil changes. Yeah it would be nice if you didn't have to buy sensors and any part you could get from a machinist, local fabrication for those is coming anyway.
>>520200969Ford Edge. I couldn't justify a truck, wasn't the money, just don't have anything to tow.
>>520195972I’d pick this Le Mans Blau babe over anything modern any fucking day. Most beautiful sedan ever made.
>>520195972Because older cars are sovl
>>520200857Turbo i4s belong in sporty little cars not a work truck like a tacoma imo
>>520200829Cool. I hope you find one.
>>520195972Why are bitter mid-30s so obsessed with us?
>>520201283>work truck>tacomaPick one
>>520201125Okay, learn the hard way like I had to. Good luck getting parts without part numbers from the parts shop that doesn't sell parts and having completely unrelated parts throw fail codes because of how the sensors communicate with each other. Good luck chasing phantom gremlins just trying to get the thing to pass an inspection to be road legal. But it's fast though, right?
>>520201355Lol well it's being marketed as one
>>520198952"muh blobshit" nigga thats a great design, e60 m5 is literally the best performance sedan of all time
>>520201583That’s cause goyota knows its market
>>520200803i'm the same age, same old cars, AND i have never owned an automaticsomeone beat me>96 ford probe gt (mazda 2.5l v6)>97 cavalier (2.2)>95 c1500 single cab (4.3l)>97 miata>92 cheyenne (350 v8)plus a few motorcycles.
>>520195972They aren't wrong.
>>520199998The thing about new cars is that there are so many modules and management systems that the manufacturers won't supply or support after 5-10 years. So your 7 year old car winds up being cooked for something that previously would be a simple fix.
>>520201313Because you suck literally and think you can make your generation culturally relevant by rehashing over and over. You tried to invent your own slang which failed. You tried to invent your own hairstyles which failed. You tried to act mature which failed before your time. And now you are trying to look mature as well which will fail by lusting over classic cars. And worst of all you zoomers think you can push Millennials around before your time. We never messed with GenX like this but you think you can mess with us. You are going to fail just as you do every other scheme you try.
>>520196336Here it was the decade when we actually started catching up with the 1st world, transforming from a mostly agrarian society into an urban, industrial one. Plumbing, electricity, household appliances like washing machines and fridges started becoming normal rather than luxuries for the rich. But there was also the looming threat of the soviet union, our politicians had to choose their words wisely and foreign policy was more or less dictated by Moscow.Interesting times but I don't know any millennial who's nostalgic for that era specifically.
>>520201859>>520201895correct terminology is generation Y
>>520195972but new cars are boring. >alsoWhat the fuck is up with every new car being this unbelievably tacky plastic looking NPC grey? What the fuck is this color and why is every car painted in it? Its almost demonic how soulless this shit is. >dur its cheaperI've seen $100k SUVs in this shit. Are you really telling me you paid that much but won't spring for a color that doesn't look like rolling depression?
>>520201218That's a beauty. Classy, elegant, and more than capable of handling it's own. I love the color too.

>>520195972They know deep inside that modernity is cold and empty.
>>520195972Because cars made after 2000s are objectively estrogenized fag shit that just looks like formless blobs of metal, and I say this as a millenial.Won't ever catch me in such a goybox. These things show by their design alone that their only purpose is to get you to Mr: Shekelbergs for punctual waging and back to your pod in time for goyslop, nothing else.
>>520200829Are you looking for one with an LT1 or an l98?. 87 GTA Pontiac trans am. Man I miss that fucking car had something like and 250+ foot pounds of torque at 1800 rpm. It was very fun. That too important injection motor was a torque monster. Fucking really miss it damn I'd like to go back.

my 98 Mazda protege had pver 300k miles on it.was half submerged in a ravine full of water, wrecker pulled it out..it cranked right up.had to have hood clamps.. wire hangers holding fenders on.. a/c would kill the car if you turned it on at a red light or in city traffic had an oil leak where it had to have oil put in every week and a halfhad to replace a couple belts that would come off occasionally and it had a few other issues too but.. finally I got tboned in it. smashed me in the side ..windows busted..was facing the opposite direction when it was over ..I didnt even know wtf happened. couldnt open either door on that side anymore. frame was fucked. I was sad. I drove it for a week before they got the motor out. people would point and laughBUT MAN I LOVED THAT FUCKING CAR AND WOULD ABSOLUTELY BUY ANOTHER ONE IF I CAME ACROSS IT. sadly its kind of impossible. 99s you can find used sometimes for sale but no 98s :(my dad ended up selling the motor some guys. because it still fucking drove.
>>520201859Sounds like someone is coping and seething at being outperformed.
>>520196131You mean 80s, only boomers want 50s shit
obama destroyed the used car market. hes directly responsible for the intentional destruction of countless decent, good condition cheap vehicles https://youtu.be/5OOwvcHAnQoif 'gen z' wants a 'classic' car. they will pay out the ass
>>520203963it looked like this. exactly like this.but beaf tf up.>engine manufactured in Hiroshima>radiation superpowersThese things are underrated . too bad when I was looking for a new car the only Mazdas I could find in my area were fucking SUVs. I hate crossovers like you wouldnt believe. They should be banned.
>>520196131Millennials grew up in the late 90s are you on crack?
>>520196336>US millennials view the 50s as this oppressive hell world where they couldn't suck as many cocks in public as they would've wanted.Not chuds like you. What a retarded post to write out glorifying the 50s while you conplain about how no one glorifies the 50s. Fucking retards like this are the backbone of America.
>>520204309anon this video is depressing.interesting though, because I thought the cash for clunkers and "i buy junk cars" was just some scam some local dude was doing. Didn't know it was all over.
Why is everything grayscale now though?
>>520201859We should have done that to xcucks, the entire nightmare world is largely their doing.Joss Whedon is the antichrist.
>>520199873>in which case any shop canShops in my town can't even replace a whole engine out of my 30 y/o shitbox, so I can maybe work a better job farther from home.
>>520195972This. My generation would never do this. Kids these days. They have no idea. Back in my day, we used to *verbal diarrhea and boomer coping mechanisms*
>>520204234Outperformed at what? Everything zoomers do is net negative superficial face value stuff. Go ahead get that classic car but i already mentioned it's a money pit. When i was zoomers age i just hardcore gamed and didn't try to paint myself as someone i wasn't. Driving around in classic cars and wearing big boy pants won't change the fact you still don't have your own house, wife and kids. I don't understand zoomers at all. They want to put on a facade baldly.
>>520203205Funny that yesterday I was just thinking about a friend who bought an '88 brand new. I was wondering what the fuck the 'A' meant in GTA and had to look it up.It was pretty cool 37 years ago but its interior really shows their age.
>>520195972Deloreans are great
>>520196131I think you mean Gen X even though I always thought the 50's nostalgia was cringe
if you dont drive a CamryV6 in the year 2025 you are ngmi
>>520204759
>>520195972Gen Z doesn't even want to drive wtf are you talking about?Also driving a "classic car" like that 90's BMW is a bigger sign of wealth than driving a new car these days because parts are expensive, shop rates are $200/hr, and no zoomers have their own garage.
Pretty based desu...Sadly the cash for clunkers seems to have wiped a lot, and the 90s era stuff you used to be able to get for 2k is now 8.The new nissan 300, whatever it's called is 40k... And all these cars have too much computer related stuff.
>>520197110What hack? I remember years ago there was monthly reports of Teslas being hacked and taken control of while driving.Now that's unheard of and even Chevy, Ford, and others have never been hacked. It would be awesome for people to hack and bypass all the subscriptions.
>>520204670You're seething. The only impact millennials have had on the world was emo culture, stomp stomp clap music, and failing to adapt to the modern age. You let boomers beat the hell out of you without doing anything back. It's pathetic.
>>520205459Cash for clunkers only claimed 677K cars. That's not all that many when 15M new cars are sold in America each year. What actually happened is old cars broke and it cost more to fix than they were worth. Nobody wants to pay a shop twice the value of their entire car to replace the transmission.>2k is now 8.That sounds in line with inflation.
>>520196552>'old car' memewhat the hell is the old car meme? and how the hell could an older car be more expensive than modern compouterized pieces of shit thata are designed to break? older cars are easier to work on, so once you're over the initial learning curve, you're golden and you can repair just about anything yourself, saving thousands and even tens of thousands of dollars over time.
>>520204670>>520205756these two are 1 year difference in age by the way
>>520205756Stomp stomp clap was the 70s.
>>520204626It won't change anything. Our generations are systematically oppressed by the jew. The last generation to get participation trophies was the boomers ironically, They always harp on about no freebies but they were given a somewhat clean slate. >>520205314Because its a farking larp. Zoomers just want to larp with these machines.>>520205756We were raised Christian that's why. There's literally no solution until the economy implodes. You zoomers won't accomplish anything by pissing away your time on these machines.

>>520205944Can't change a head gasket in an apartment. With an old car you need your own house/garage which immediately makes them unaffordable.
I just now sold my 1999 toyota solara. It still ran but needed a few repairs. 26 fucking years on the road.Bought a 2014 ford focus a few years ago and it broke down almost exactly on the day it was paid off. really makes you think
>>520195972because 1980's aesthetics are so cool.
>>520206164just do it on the street wahmen will love it
>>520206164>head gasketso you're gonna just pay someone $3K to do it for you, and not even *try* to find a way to do it yourself? you're the easily-defeated type, yeah?
>>520206178Man I love the 70s and 80s Jap inline, carburated look on bikes. I used to have a 79 Suzuki GS and I loved that thing.
>>520195972That's nothing new. Back in the severities and eighties, boomers like driving these things.
dammit. this is also a bot thread. seem the goal was to talk more about shitting on zoomers or millenials rather than old cars.
>>520195972>lust provoking image>irrelevant time wasting questioncar guys have always wanted classic cars to mimic their dads/unclesquit hating masculinity, JEET
>>520206272kek>>520206424How would you suggest someone living in an apartment go about this? Rent a garage? Oh and how do they get to and from this garage and their house? How do they get to work? Oh they need a second car. Do you see how this goes? Old cars are a rich man's hobby. You just don't see it probably because you're working on your car in you parent's driveway and borrowing their spare car.
Come on, lets post some real deals
>>520196131Are you referring to the Raggare/Rockabilly subculture in Scandinavia or something?
>>520206527god that is the ugliest era of cars everabsolute shit box
>>520206527The cool ones did. Most just used the money they made making pizza part time to buy a brand new car.
>>520206858It handles like shit too, horrible mpg, weak engine, burns oil, no AC, vapor locks, no safety features. But it's got chrome to get you home.
>>520195972Perhaps cause everything new is gay, spyware, or DRM ridden
For me, it's the humble Volkswagen Lupo.
>>520196336You're definitely in the minority on this one burgerbro
>>520206975How much was average wage and gas prices in comparison to today
>>520195972These are glorious times for someone like me who likes 30s and 40s cars since their prices are hitting rock bottom as more Boomers die out. Millennials and Zoomers are too busy gobbling up 90s JDM and Euro cars and asking dumbass prices for them.
I yearn for great grandpas car
>>520207558Well the average boomer could buy a house while working as a checker at the local grocery store so I'd say the average wage was pretty good. Gas prices idk. They did have that oil embargo in the 70s.
>>520196991fucking v12 gulps le gas
>>520195972It has nothing to do with LARPing, OP. Thanks to the internet and a lot of content dealing with previous generations, specifically the 80's, 90's, and 00's, Gen Z/Gen A are realizing just how amazing that stretch of time was for white and asian nations. And they're not wrong: they were a great time, truthfully. There is nothing around today, outside of maybe the internet being faster, that is better today than it was back then.
>>520208096Got to see that in person back in May and it's fucking beautiful. Pictures don't do it justice.
>>520208627lucky you, where was it?
>>520208263Zoomers should be thankful they were never promised an amazing future like we were. No broken promises, no forgotten dreams.
>>520196131No, I don't.I feel more nostalgic about the 70s-80s>t. millenial
New cars are gay and shit while older cars are cool.
>drive a porsche>some teens think im rich and ask my tiktok handle>"huh?">walk away confused
>>520195972people want "classic" cars because they workno NSA killswitch, no faggot ass emission standardsno telemetry reporting exact speed and distance driven to report to the tax authorities.
>>520208807Truly. We were all told, from a young age, that if you worked hard, got an education, went to college, you'd be making 6 figures a year. Who knew boomers would destroy there children's future so hard and so quickly. >>520208951>Old car: Goes from A to B, has radio. Cost you $10,000 new, $4,500 used. Looked cool. Maintenance was easy and cheap.>New car: Goes from A to B, has Spotify, Tidal, Apple, Google, and a whole slew of things tracking you. Costs $50,000 new, used is $45,000. Looks like every other car.Maintenance is hard and expensive.
>>520208729The St. Louis Art Museum. They had a whole exhibition over the summer featuring French cars, art, fashion, and so on from the interwar period.
>>520196991Always loved the 7 series
>>520209180Do you always believe everything you’re told? Or maybe try thinking for yourself and looks the reality of the world around you and use that to make informed decisions. Common sense would’ve told you taking on debt at a young age with.l no income doesn’t equate to making money, it’s litterally the opposites
>>520205196>CamryV6But what about the glorious V8? Can it be upgraded? I refuse to drive anything without its mighty roar, it is unbecoming.
>>520203658Europoors lived with 34hp 3 cylinders in those years. Nip engines were simply more powerful in that time.
>>520195972Because theyre gay>>520198332>>520201646Not reallyUnreliable ugly moneypit literally the most dogshit one.How is this better than the e39 m5???
>>520195972>>520196131I feel nostalgic of the era when I saw no niggers in public spaces or in buses. Kids these days have it rough
>>520209377Not at all. But that was what was instilled in millions of children around the United States. During my time in school (thankfully private), I watched as Gym, Home Economics, Trade based classes, Practical Law, etc., quietly disappeared from curriculums and instead got replaced by "goto college or you'll die poor" rhetoric. College was also not as expensive when I graduated in '09, but it was starting to balloon to unreasonable levels. Sure, more expensive than the 70's, 80's, and 90's, but still had an actual value to go and get a degree. None of those ridiculous degrees floating around then.

Where's the source for the claim in OP. Oh there isnt one?
>>520209838Monsters, Inc. came out around the same time Hillary Clinton was harvesting adrenochrome from little girls on Epstein's island.
>>520210175why was steve buchimi lizard the bad guy?
>>520195972its true, modern cars are god damn ugly, all nearly identical in design style. cars stopped looking good at around 2012.
you mean people aren't content to choose from 1,000 identical models of homologated chinky-jeety SUV??????
>>520210404Con Air had just come out and Buscemi really nailed it.
>>520195972all the cars today are shitty blobslopwe want boxkino again
>>520210949overrated but solid movie
>>520201895The fuck are you talking about? We started to get our shit to together only around the 70's.
>>520197241Oh the Jetta horribly reliable. When it works it’s fuckin fun, but not up to par with maintenance on the DSG transmission and the water pump, it’ll go to shit. 2.5L was honestly their best engine and great for swaps. At least vw has fixed all the gimmicks on the 1.8 and 2.0t series. On the gen 3 and gen 4 series of the engine. The fuck would they put a plastic oil pan and make the transmission oil fail and drain from the bottom.
>>520196177
>>520206742>You just don't see it probably because you're working on your car in you parent's driveway and borrowing their spare car.no, i bought an old motorcycle for $500, and i found. a garage in town that let me rent space in their back lot. it's not impossible, unless you're *looking* for reasons to fail.
>>520195972Even they are now aware how zogged and soulless they are.
>>520196131This is absolutely not true. Millennials don't give a fuck about the 50s. Maybe the 80s to a degree, but millennials grew up in the last good decade of the west so their nostalgia is for their own days. Zoomers and new generations won't have good times so they can only pine for old times they never got to experience.
>>520195972This is a boomber who wants his children to buy tesla.
For me it's the 2005 Saab 9-3 Aero, black edition.It has sovl. I feel sorry for the faggots around here who spend $2000/month on modern shitboxes.
>>520199283>>520200829I really like the Toredor car from GTA V Online. I know there is a real life version of it, obviously without those game perks.
>>520212001When I was a teenager it was classic muscle or ricer. Nothing else was cool.
>>520199572110%, fuck all these loud as fuck faggot millennials who think they're the majority when they aren't. And The kike loving boomers who enable them. They think they're the majority opinion but in reality they were just a squeaky wheel who got what they wanted because not enough normal people spoke up out of fear. So glad the tables are starting turn and these miserable fucks are learning the truth and are being forced back into their gay little closets. Im nostalgic for the 50s sure, but I'm even more nostalgic for the times prior to 1945, hell maybe even the 1860s. On a side note I just finished replacing the alternator, serpentine belt, and ac belt in my Silverado and it fixed my "service battery charging system" notification on my dash but also fixed a persistent tmps light issue it was having as well. Fuck yeah.
>>520195972I think it says it right in the image OP.
>Be a young guy looking for a car in 2015/16>You can only afford a car from the 90s >tfw like old cars now>10 years later, you can afford a new car >"Designed" by millennials carslop
>>520196131lol, what? millennials feel nostalgic about the 90s and maybe the 80s for some real old fucks. no one can be nostalgic for a time before they existed except for maybe homosexuals on reddit.
>>520201991I friend of mine bought this car from USA and it was cheaper than in our based b Poland even after customs, taxes. Poland is a fucking socialist shithole and unlike Germany, France etc... you get fuck all in return.
This is my daily driver along with my 98 civic I drove only in the summer. I just don't fucking care what people think.
>>520208189They aren't too bad, it's 2 old 325i engines put together.
Sounds like they have good taste and realize that this clownworld we live in is gay.
>>520209491No, you want the 2JZ-GE engine. It is superior.
>>520212717What does it mean
>>520195972The ones made from 2000-2008 are actually a good option. It seems that capitalism died on 2008. Cars are all real pieces of shit now

>>520195972great more competition for the classics i grew up with, except zoomers will probably fuck them up acting like niggers in them
It's bad when you're being looksmaxxed by a fucking ford focusI've been wanting to get myself an older subaru impreza since parts should still be bountiful
>>520196336>US millennials view the 50s as this oppressive hell worldFaggots and women think this.
>>520196991i had a 1994 530i with the 3.0 v8 back in 2013...it was cool as fuck but quite possibly the biggest whore bitch to repair and maintain. i can't imagine it's gotten any cheaper or easier
>>520205944>what the hell is the old car meme? People like old cars for some reason. >and how the hell could an older car be more expensive than modern compouterized pieces of shit thata are designed to break?>laughs in BMW maintenance schedules
>>520195972I think it's pragmatic. New cars are shitty, break often and come with subscription plans and gps tracking. Anyone smart wants proven automobiles that might last to 1 million miles. Zoomers want a car that simply drives when you press the gas, no unnecessary bullshit. That choice is obviously a better than a $100k shit mobile with 10,000 different electronic features that constantly break. Auto techs get paid starvation wages so you'll wait 3 months before they touch your broken shit box because kikes can't take home $30 million a year unless everyone in the chain gets exploited to the maximum. Gassing the kikes is optimal but taking little steps to not play their game is the best bet.

Almost like modern cars are bloated soulless pigfat you can't even wrench on yourself and are expected to pay a subscription for.
>>520200449The only way the autists make money is if they post car gore rage bait. Everyone is either a shill or Scotty-lite when it comes down to it.
>>520216330thats tesla and the jeet hand is the cherry on top, well done elon.
>>520216982Came to say just this. Nobody wants a fucking iPad on wheels where everything is made of plastic that breaks and the thing bricks itself from a failed software update. Where you have to pay a subscription fee to use features built into the car.Those vehicles are what's on offer, I hope the zoomers just refuse to buy. They will - the economy's shit and the dealerships are raising prices to make up for lower sales volume.
>>520208096Morgans are still for sale in britain.
>>520216968well, sure, you gotta be smart about which old cars you choose. also, don't fucking buy things from a shop that have to be ordered, if you can help it. find a pick-a-part, or, if possible, buy a second version of the same car that you can cannibalize to keep your main one running. again, be smart about which car you choose: pick something that has lots of cheap parts available.

>>520209293So does your mechanic
>boringThe article spelt "BURNING" incorrectly...
Man the upkeep is just too much sometimesLike I love my old car but mechanics always pretend to fix shit, charge you, and it breaks in two days. After MONTHS of this they actually open the engine up and fix it. This country has too many thieves for you to ever have a single good to yourself.
>>>/o/a superior board because the posters actually have testosterone
>>520195972Why, you millenials larped as niggers. We cannot larp as the generational nigger?
>>520195972I think they just want nice things, and most new things being made aren't very nice. So they reach for what they can get.
>>520211362I want an old 240 series Volvo, but in the hunt for one I found this 2007 V8 S80. Cosmetically in pretty good condition but mechanically fucked, slowly been fixing shit. It used to leak oil everywhere, misfired, doesn't anymore. Been hunting for missing trim pieces etc.Figure I'll keep it as long as possible because Volvo doesn't even make a 6 cylinder anymore much less an 8.>twin charged hybrid 1.6 in your 3 ton SUV?>It's more likely than you thinkThat shit is frustrating as all hell. How the fuck am I supposed to fix something that is turbocharged, supercharged, VVT, and hybrid electric?My brain is tapped out fixing a lawnmower man that shit can go in the bin.
>>520222822Nobody on o has a car
>>520195972>new cars are too "boring"Uh. Right. Sure.Please disregard serviceability and the complete lack of model selection.
>>520223450There's quite some truth to that. There's an awful lot of "I heard this so I'll parrot it as universal truth!" and probably even more of "I lust over this and that, therefore it's the best! What, no, I don't own one, or have even driven one."
>>520195972>Gen Z distrusts new cars with all their tracking and computer nonsenseNot surprising. They got to experience the enshitification first hand. They don't want their car to "vibe code" them off the interstate.
Things that belong in the bin:>twin charge>hybrid>anything with 3 cylinders>anything with a wet belt>touchscreen infotainment, it just makes the car look old after 3 years, buttons are timeless and easy to fix>emissions recirculation - fucking your engine to save the environment >the entire indian subcontinent >israel That is all thank you for your attention to this matter
