RIPJust got sandwiched between 2 cars, rear-ended when stopped by some black teenager going ~40. Not posting the accident pics til insurance is settled. Manual and wishbones. She gone.ND Club or bust. Either that or an 86.
this will continue until TND is enacted
>>28662224What does the Tunisian dinar have to do with the op?
Man it was almost 6 years to the day after my NA got rear-ended when I was stopped at a light. Fucking A.I'm really picky. I want manual, RWD, LSD, <3000 lbs, and wishbones at least on one axle. It's just miatas and 86s, right? The older the better. I can't think of anything else I'd want to drive.Anyone know about ND miats? Anything I should know?I was getting good at powersliding this thing. REE.Last song played in the Subaru, for good measure:https://youtu.be/-0ZjPHeHCvo>>28662224My city is 2/3rds black, it's to be expected. Though I lost my miat to a white chick in her 20s.
>>28662262Didn't read, total namefaggot death
>>28662264Been posting here with this trip since '08 when half of all posts were by trips. I've been posting as anon for years but felt like this deserved a trip post like old times. Get over yourself, historically /o/ has been the most-tripped board.This EJ253 managed 150k with no issues at all, gottdamn shame.
>>28662262>My city is 2/3rds blackGenuinely how do people live like this
>>28662293It's called "white flight," I live in the boonies out of town. Literally in a swamp. 30 minute commute.But I gotta tell ya, I wish there were more white women - they all left after high school.Property taxes are basically nonexistant and there isn't as much competition for engineering jobs. I've lived in black-majority cities most of my adult life. It is what it is.
>>28662293Shit is absolutely brutal and your life could be ended over something trivial daily. >>28662301Stay strong.
>>28662205ND has bones on all four. 86 just on rears. Still fun though.
>>28662205Sad to see it happen man. NDs rock though, love mine. Hope you enjoy it brother
>>28662205I've seen this thing around for a while, damn
>>28662306I'm gunning for an ND Club (that's the only trim with an LSD, right?) I'm pretty set on it, the 86 is like 600 lbs heavier. Super excited about it. My Impreza had wishbones rear only and it was a nice setup actually, but nothing like my old '95 Miat.>>28662307Thanks dude, anything I need to look out for for NDs? I'd take a cut in power not to have a SIM card.
>>28662315I've got money down on a GR86 but man, part of me really thinks the ND would've been the more fun choice.
>>28662262Hey I remember you. Whatever happened to Frosty did he ever get out of jail? Some say he trooned out but you know, I can't take that on good faith
>>28662205fark, rip.>>28662372he definitely did. every now and then someone will post pics of him post-troon here. used to tripfag as 'claire' but havent seen him in a while
>>28662301>I live in the boonies out of townthat's how I deal with it, only problem is every other time I go to town to get gas some fucking dusty ass nigger approaches me at the gas station.always with this "can i have a dollar""you got a lighter/smokes""hey can you come help me with something""can you drive me down the street"like fuck off man, tried to hit one with my car after he just stood next to my window after I told him to fuckoff, get the fuck out of my space.
>>28662372Yeah, like >>28662374 said he got out of jail and trooned out.>>28662376>every other time I go to town to get gas some fucking dusty ass nigger approaches me at the gas station.That's how I get weed lol, the crackheads at the gas stations. Heroin and meth are misdemeanors here but even delta-8 (or any weed) is a felony. Any amount, felony. I hate this place. Good driving though.
>>28662379>I hate this placeWhy not just move?
>>28662205RIPIP
>>28662374>>28662379Wtf really? Wasn't he fat greasy and hairy? Why did he troon out
>>28662315Not too much to worry about with NDs, ND1 has a CD player which is nice, but not really worth considering with a weaker engine and transmission. ND2 (2019-24) has a stronger engine and transmission, and 1 or 2 nice qol upgrades. ND3 (post 2024) isn't too different from the ND2, but has a bit more electronics in it which I find unappealing. Also all ND2 GT trims have the club options (Bilsteins, LSD, strut braces) as well as a more insulated top and option for Brembos. No Recaro seats in the GT though
>>28662416reasons the sane will never truly understand. or maybe an anon that knows more can enlighten us
>>28662416the prison economy runs on booty, and guess who's supplying
>>28662496>>28662511Kek unbelievable. What about his crypto riches and shitboxes
>>28662425ND1s are a bargain ATM. You can find one for $14-20k all day long while the ND2s are still $20-30k. They're not dramatically slower than ND2s too. Andy Hollis was 0.7 seconds slower in a ND1 over a ND2 on a 1:30 course with the same mods tires and setup from a GRM article when the car first came out
>>28662588Isn't the ND1 manual tranny made of glass?
>>28662591You really have to be abusing the car to break it and iirc Mazda replaced the ones that had issueshttps://grassrootsmotorsports.com/project-cars/2019-nd-mx-5/giving-our-triple-threat-nd-miata-a-proper-bluepri/That said $2300 for a whole motherfucking nigger ass transmission from a dealership is dirt cheap
>>28662301oh, so that's why you are pandawhitey, but get skidmarks from contacting blacks
>>28662205For what it's worth you can get into a pre-facelift VA STI for under $20k pretty easily.https://www.fb.com/share/19grzJv44n/
>>28662588Eh, for my money I'd rather have the more stout drivetrain. But I'm planning on keeping my car for a long time, for people who just need a car and want something fun, the ND1 is fine I'm sure. ND1 is also easier to tune I hear, but I reckon the 2+3 will overtake it in aftermarket support eventually
>>28662205Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you get enough to buy another one.
>>28662262>manual>RWD>LSD (for about $150 at the junkyard)>2800 lbs>V8>front bones>tons of aftermarket>old>fun to slide around>easy to wrench onSounds like you need a Tbird.
>>28662376> "hey can you come help me with something"More like "hey can you come somewhere where it's easier to rob you"
>>28662345My Dad has a ND, it's really small (duh) and wouldn't work well as your only car. The GR86 is a great car that is the 240sx of our era.
>>28664210>0-60 the same as a 40 year old economy coupefucking grim
>>28664250It has the same 0-60 as a 30 year old M3 actually, the 40 year old economy coupe was closer to 9 seconds 0-60
>>28664210I had an NA8 for 11 years. I can manage.
>>28664210Counterpoint, I've had an ND as my only car for 4 years and it's been perfectly fine. If you have a whole family it's obviously a bad choice, but so is an 86 at that point
>>28662205>rear-ended when stopped by some black teenager going ~40>>28662262>I lost my miat to a white chick in her 20s>>28662224>Total /n/ De-car-ificationyou mean. These retards don't belong in cars. Driving licenses should be ten times as hard as they're now.
>>28664330The problem is fun car ownership and car ownership for pleasure works off the economies of scale unless you want a situation like Western Europe where a 120hp Hatchback is seen as the equivalent of a Lambo or a GTR and your average car enthusiast is some faggot teenage carspotter who spends half his time bench racing supercars. Unless you have a upper middle class career like Doctor/Lawyer/Business Owner/Engineer youre lucky to even own anything remotely enthusiast oriented there vs Americans where a dumb nigger with a $23/hr FedEx warehouse job can get approved on a 500hp V8 Charger the same day at most used car dealerships.
>>28664256the 85 stang was a 6 second 0-60toybaru shitboxes cant compete with reagan chadmobiles
>>28664356Actually that dumb nigger with a 23$/h fedex warehouse job stereotype exists in Europe. It's called muslims going into financial suicide to finance a bmw m car or a mercedes s class/amg.In general you can in Europe, but our culture and schooling here is different so we have less people like that.Sincerely, Euro who owns a nd miata.>>28662205Go for the nd rf if you want a fun coupe. Go for the Brz if you need more space. ND is the funner car but the Brz is the faster and bigger car.
>>28662205Let me buy them rims cheap for winter use.I mean sorry to hear that happened. TND won't be soon enough.
>>28665128Unfortunately to get an insurance payout you've got to give up the whole car.
>>28664996Cars are just cheaper here and purchasing power is stronger. You could pull that off in USA if you live in a cheap area to insure and it was a full time job:$23/hr * 160 (40 hours 4 weeks) = $3680 a month before taxes (gross). Assuming at worst 40% taxes between fed/state and local its $2200/mo after taxes ($2600/mo if its 30% taxes) net pay. $30,000 car = $510/mo @ 60mo 6.64% APR (rare, probably will be closer to 2x this or 11% APR = $560/mo after $8000 down). https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/vehicle/2c3cdxgj0lh166452Still will have $1600-2000/mo to take home. Insurance is the killer if you live in a urban area. Most nigs will just put it under their parents/grandparents name (or even have them cosign for lower interest).The only European country that's comparable is UK and that's because they have the cheapest used car prices in the world other than maybe Japan
>>28665181Americans just dont pay that much tax on cars in general. We get turbo fucked here with pollution tax on top of 21% vat on cars. My miata costs 50k new. So I got it second hand for half off. At least the roads in my country only ranks behind Singapore and sometimes Switzerland for the best road network in the world. I have never seen a single pothole.
>>28665160Not shocked, then they will part it. Sorry about the loss tho for real.
