bros, how do we cope with being the most excluded car economy in the world? you cant buy any cool cars here without forking up 15k out of pocket, for no beneficial reason, so your car runs Worse (emissions complicance)the only cool cars are pre-2000s, back when they DIDNT have jewishly faggoty niggulationsthe only companies that do care to make a cali-compliant car are obviously going to have to make their money back...what are we supposed to drive now?what do my cool calibros drive? carbureted cars still worth wrenching on?
>>28610883>4door cope machineIt's not the gtr you'd get if you didn't fail at life. Nothing if value was lost.T failure
>>28610883california is not the most excluded car economy in the world. there are countries that are much worse off for enthusiasts. cool cars are entirely subjective. "jewishly faggoty niggulations" have always existed and are only interpreted that way if you agree with them or not. california emissions compliant cars are practically the standard when engineering a vehicle in the modern era. improving the efficiency of are very flawed method of propulsion is necessary to make better vehicles. drive what you want to drive. there are 49 other states in the USA that adhere to different regulations and laws. think critically.you are yelling for help to be saved from drowning, despite the fact that you're standing still in a puddle. wrench on what you want to wrench on. it's your time, do what you want with it.
>>28610883Anything made before 1975 doesn't need to be smogged, so buy something from that time period. I am.
>>28610883Every mexicant, which is basically every person in California, has a 4 door Datsun, you fucking moron. What is the difference this shitbox and a Maxima? You are a millennial ricer faggot, you will never turn a wrench, get a 4 Door Sports Car it's different and it will be all you can handle.>>28610920>cool cars are entirely subjectiveMaybe on your planet.
>>28610883Every car enthusiast I know in California registers their cars out of state, some even have out of state DLs.
>>28610981expand your horizons. you deserve to know more than what you know now.
>>28610883I don't care because my reliable Honda is smog legal and I drive around in beautiful weather all the time
>>28610888A sedan gtt sounds pretty nice as a daily desu Not for that price, but still.
>>28610985yeah, i checked that up, however its still illegal for a cali resident to drive a non-emissions-compliant carpassing through is fine, but getting pulled over once means getting your car towed
>>28610920NOx regulations mean new engines are legally mandated to be less efficient, suboptimized, and technologically backwards, not more. The people making the rules for you today are retards who hate you and want bad things to happen to you, so of course the results are to make things worse, not better.
>>28610883CA is the best place in the country for cars and had the best car culture until recentlyIt's a shame we are run by satanic communist faggots, they are destroying this place
>>28611712>CA is the best place in the country for carslolCalicuck thinks its 1960 still
>>28611822>Calicuck thinks its 1960 stillThis is a shop down the street from meLast time I went I counted 10 959sTheres more exotics in single California shops than your entire flyover state.
>>28611840>immediately seethes about flyover countryNigger there are more people in Florida, Pennsylvania and New York states than there are west of the Mississippi
>>28611840good car culture is more than rich retards buying status symbols that they never drive. the fact your immediate kneejerk reaction is to seethe about flyovers and talk about muh exotics (and to claim a porsche is exotic lmfao) tells everything. your emissions requirements and pozzed faggot cities ruined car culture in your state decades ago.
>>28610883Calicucks are experts at cope, they ignore all rational thoughts every day of their lives, delusion is second nature to them. Like >>28611840.
>>28610883if it's that old you can smog and register it.you'd have to put emissions shit on it though.
>>28611840This is true. California is the heart of car culture not only in America but globally.Poorfags are just seething that they can't afford to pay to play.
>>28612929Hasn't been true in many years
>>28611840Oh no I hate it here in not California
>>28610883t.not a yankcan't you just register in another state?
>>28611840You can't afford any of those and they're registered in Montana/Arizona/Nevada>>28613252If you're rich yeah but if you're poor CHP tries to track you and force you to register by claiming you live here most of the year. Usually from a neighbor snitching or license plate scanners.
Frenchfag here. Car-wise, we're probably just as fucked as Cali : over-regulations, EV's only zones in cities, you name it.Best solution IMO : - get a shitty econobox for daily drives (Dacia is a strong contender over here).Basically no maintenance, you can get a new one every 3/5 years.- get a gently used Porsche 911 for the rest (997 or older) : reliable, not too bad mpg, RWD and naturally aspirated, manual... fun. The only thing is maintenance : don't skip on it. But don't go to a Porsche dealer, they'll fuck you raw. Get the address of a good independent Porsche specialist.
>>28610883OP asked about carsThe whole thread is faggots whining about Calilmao
>>28613326He asked about California. Can you read? >how do we cope with being the most excluded car economy in the world? you cant buy any cool cars here
>>28610883Genuine CA homosexual male here: the answer is the CA does not have safety inspections, and only smog checks 1976 and newer, making it one of the best states for enthusiasts.
>>28613486That's worse than most states...Even most of calirado doesn't have any smog or safety inspections.
>>28613501Colorado is just as piss-yellow as CA.
>>28613527This is a horrible meaningless chart. If you have 1 county without smog checks your state would be just as yellow as a state with only 1 county with smog checks. Either way, this just proves that California is far from "the best" when their restrictions are some of the worst in the country. There's a reason Montana is where everyone registers their cars if they can.
>>28613501>Colorado
>>28613559Yeah it fucking sucks I wasn't saying colorado is some automotive mecca, I was explicitly using it as an example of a state that's rapidly becoming california but is still less shit than california.
i get it registered in montana duh
>>28610883>$27,500 for a 27 year old Nissan>But it's JDM, yo!lol get fucked.
>>28613476>The minivan up on ramps to check for performance modsLMAO what a waste of time. I'd almost say it should be illegal but this wastes so much traffic enforcement time and resources that it's circled back to being based.
>>28612029>good car culture is more than rich retards buying status symbols that they never drive.ya "good car culture" isn't the cars that are universally loved....its what exactly? you know whats coping, your seething reply with no substance face it, the objective fact is CA has the best car culture and driving roads on the planet DISPITE the commie government, thats how powerful it is compared to the junk your shit state has
>>28615151CA has the best roads and car culture, but the rest of your post reads like someone who's never been a part of it. Greetings from Long Beach, norcal bumpkin!
>>28615170>Greetings from Long Beach, norcal bumpkin!Nice, lets bring So Cal faggotry into this thread as well
>>28613535This, it makes DE looks worse than PA. DE has state run inspections which only check functionality - does the OBDII system say you're good? Do you brakes stop the car? Lights and wipers work? PA has mechanic-run inspections so you're starting with a conflict of interest, and they do a deep dive on components and even body rust. I moved to good ol' inspectionless FL and my only complaint is the irresponsible people driving absolute disasters, but that's the price of being free.
>>28615151>universally lovedYou'll mature eventually
>>28615151>good state culture is owning expensive stuff and relying on other states I think are inferior You're the reason the entire country hates cuckifornians. Leaving that shithole is the best decision I've ever madeExotic cars are fucking boring. There's a reason that every car show you'll see a swarm around the cool car someone built while the half million dollar investment on wheels gets a few passing glances. They don't drive their car, they don't know anything about their car beyond what the brochure told them, and they don't care about their car outside of how much money they spent on it. And you think that's culture? fucking laughable
>>28613527Tx no longer requires safety inspections. And emissions testing is only in a few counties. So unless you live in Houston, DFW, Austin you're golden
>>28616012>Unless you live where people live then you're golden.I'm sure the 5 95yo grannies and dozen wetbacks living in tumble weed towns are thrilled by this news.
>>28615151>best car culture>rich faggots who put around in their fancy shit once in a blue moon>stancefaggot ricers>blingfaggot niggersHmmm, yes, truly the best car culture.
>>28613246Gorgeous bike, anon. 750?
