hey /o/ so im going through a midlife crisis after a lot of consecutively bad things have happened in my life. after driving an sensible econobox for decades im looking for a car to give me a little joy in life that has aura and presence. I don’t mind if this is a project car. I want something that looks cool, that I can maybe get for a good price and that I can work on. I will still drive my econobox to work but want this to be a cool car for going out. I’m thinking an older MB a 560SL, an BMW 850CI, MB 380SL, some Porsche? Open to any type of older cool car.

>>29018592>i need attentiontruck might be more your thing
>>29018607I’m not a truck guy, no use for it. Mercedes-Benz 560SEC
>>29018600Get a mk 2 Toyota Celica Supra, they pop up pretty regularly out west at decent prices, and most have a 5 speed manual. Also lots of documentation on engine swaps if an i6 isn’t your thing!
>>29018610Love Japanese cars but they just don’t have the same aura has some of these euro cars
>>29018610>>29018606>>29018602Oh yeah this is exactly what I'm looking for I'll get right on it
>>29018610That is very boyracer. OP is looking for an adult car.
>>29018642a60 celicas boyracers?? lolwut.if anything it's gti golfs and 3rd gen onwards hatchback mercs, especially if they have a spoiler, high chance they'll be weaving in and out of traffic and/or have a diarrhoea exhaust
>>29018600I'm just going to post interesting stuff I see

There's always a bunch of these MGBs for sale. It's the boomer miata.
I have no idea what your budget is
Now THIS is kino
>>29018592Fuck yeah brother I'm going through the same.Here are my random recommendations (i'll talk mostly about benzos cause i'm not so familiar with bmws):>s klass (pre-2006)>old school e300 with unkillable om606 engine>w214 (the classic)>1st gen slkIn Europe, used, they're about 3k€ if that goes into your budget. No idea about the price in the USIf you like Audi, the 1st gen TT or the old school A4/A6 are more sober but still excellent to drive.I'd also suggest you take a look at some old Jaguars..... they aged like wine
>>29018642CorrectI’m trying to find a nice car with aura that looks high class and has that classic ssx appeal not scare the hoes or attract jdm abg types Pic related
