Sporty But Reliable (Touring Capable) Cars Driver 12/05/2018 (Wed) 20:59:20 Id: 285deb No. 17391 [Reply]
So I'm going to be in the market for a second car soon. I want something I can have fun in, but still carry passengers and drive across the country in. 2 seaters maaaybe (I've been looking at some 90s MR2s) but preferably at least 4. I am a very big fan of long distance driving, but I want to actually do it in a fun/nice car for once.

>>17403 I second the VW option, you can get some nice sporty cars in their range and they always feel and drive like they cost twice their actual price. I drive a Golf mk5 R32 which I picked up for 10 000 dollarydoos with the DSG gearbox (manual was quite rare and cost 5 grand more). Most people don't know about them and don't know that VW made an entire range of R cars BEFORE the modern Golf Rs. It's 4 wheel drive, has a 3.2 litre VR6 and the best sound an engine can make. No exceptions. idk how much they are in burger land, I'm pretty sure they only sold a limited run, but worth a look anyway
Lexus IS250/IS350. Fairly comfy, good reliability, 4 doors, RWD, and it even has a V8 option if you really look.
>>17464 What years for maximum comfort?

This summer I'll have a little saved up and I plan on dirtbagging my way through Utah/Arizona/Colorado up to Montana. I'll probably stay on public land and basically go motorcamping. Some tips >reflectix+black fabric window covers >electric fan >cooler w/ bubble wrap/extra insulation >power inverter for laptop/electronics >shovel in case of getting stuck I prefer the sleeper/stealth camper look. I like to keep it as low profile as possible to minimize the risk of attention from unwanted faggots. Not really so much of a problem when you're boondocking, but in case of emergency if you're stuck in a city or whatever, it's best not to put out the "I'm a poor homeless weirdo living in a van" vibe
>>17424 This is giving me some "tiny house" vibes,

>>17405 Doesn't matter; more for the scrapheap for when their planned obsolescence runs its course. Driver's cars will be coming back sooner or later. 2030 at the latest, when everyone starts building exclusively electric that almost no-one will buy.

Any name (or number) will do as long as it's not some faggot shit like "T-Roc"/"T-Cross"/"Grandland X"/"XT-Gay!" that only a middle-aged woman or a stupid chink would like. I've also noticed that stupid gay cars carry equally stupid and gay names.
>>17387 I have to disagree. The RX-7 isn't so famous among the layman and I believe some of that inferiority comes from it´s bland name. Same goes for the 911 and F40: if you don't say beforehand that it's either a Porsche or a Ferrari, most laymen would look at you wondering what you meant. On the other hand, if you say "Corvette" or "Alpine" to some lost kid he'll know what you mean.

Wheel arch laziness Driver 09/27/2018 (Thu) 08:48:06 Id: 3b2e00 No. 16921 [Reply]
Aren't you furious about that new trend of designers? That fucking trend which makes car designers make flat wheel arch on the side of the car and break the whole car flow altogether? Well I fucking am. Fuck that shit. Make wheel arches great again like the Challenger does. There might be others cars having good designs regarding this situation, but for affordable cars, this is the only one I can think about. Discuss and convince me this isn't an issue, because it pisses me off.

Where would one learn skills to revive dead cars? Is it possible to bring even scrap heap finds to working order with just your own skills and tools? Or is a car dead forever once it passes a certain point like for example a rusty chassis? Pic is just for illustrative purposes, I don't think it's possible to revive that one at all, rip R5 Turbo…

>>17066 You can't 3d print a forged piston.
>>17066 3D printing a shit for anything other than prototyping. Terrible tensile strength compared to ABS plastic or fiberglass reinforced plastic.
>>17049 Mechanic here (industrial tho). Most stuff you can learn from books and videos and trying for yourself. Biggest hurdle is imho the tools. Access to good tools and machinery is the key and that stuff is expensive.

Car mechanic simulator is pretty good for this. You start a slow pace and work up too bigger things till you just start buying cars to rebuild. I played 2015 a lot then got 2018 a few months ago.
