Mocking Each Other's Poor Choices OP the Fag 11/18/2015 (Wed) 01:02:31 Id: 40061f No. 7247
I can't seem to find the thread where we post recent purchases and then collectively laugh at our shitty judgement. Just bought a '97 Grand Prix GTP because I got a good deal on the price and the only other thing I could afford was a mechanic's special. I give it 8 months before no single electrical component inside the car works any longer. How about you, /o/? What black holes of money have you recently saddled yourselves with?
>>9058 Well it happened to be that I didn't trust the ppl I lived with so yeah another bad decision. But I was fucked up on opiates and making bad decisions. I own up to it though and have rectified my life. I don't have any regrets either. I was banging an amazingly hot girl, making shitloads of cash and partying day and night. Now I have to be a grown up. 300C on it's way in the next few months so I can get rid of the cockblocking tbird.
>>9059 >now I have to be a grown up >buys a 300C nigga you just went from looking like an up and coming street pusher to the dedicated neighborhood dealer
>>9060 Nah "nigga" this was my dope dealing car. The Audi was the "I made it" car. And the tbird is the "welcome to reality" car. The 300c is something I'm legit working hard and saving for. Its really not that niggerish… it's been owned by my father a business owner since 2005.
>>9059 >grown up >driving 300c Isn't that an oxymoron?
>>9143 I hope you get shot and die slowly bleeding out on the street. You're a fucking degenerate and deserve nothing better.
>>9059 300 is like a fedora: it's only for kids that want to pretend, or grampas that can legit pull it off.
>>9143 i like the deville better
>>9143 >that cadillac what is your skin melanin concentration, anon?
Just bought a 6.0L V8 Commodore (VE series II SS). Picking it up in a few days, will post pics.
>>9261 Oh neat, a straya poster. Now we just need a Japanese poster who drives some country exclusive car and we'll have all our /o/ bases covered.
>>9272 Well we did have someone here who went to the Tokyo Motor Show last year, see >>7040 for further information
>>9272 I'll try not to shitpost too much. I might also make a webm, the exhaust sound fantastic.

I need to get some better pics, but here's a quick one of the VE Series II SS Commodore.

>>8935 Perhaps change the kidney grills to gloss black. It will match the gloss black side trim and might look better with that colour paint. Also spacers all around and maybe dinan springs/bump stops. Not a bad car if you have the msport suspension.
>>15762 The post you replied to is literally exactly 2 years older than yours. Did you look through the catalog to find a post like that specifically?
>>9376 T-tops, 0/10.
>>15931 that post is from 2016. I doubt that anon is even here anymore.
My boss turned up at work this morning with a Honda CR-V he got in a police auction for 1k European Pesos. 1.6 engine with intercooler, runs great, all wheel drive works. No hook to attach anything to it, and it's only 4 seats. I think that car is totally not suited for anything work related. Besides carrying 4 people and a bucket in the boot, which is tiny. TL;DR CR-V is a shit car. Prove me wrong.
>>16031 which CR-V are we talking about?
>>16031 >>16032 Probably a '12-'16, since that's the only gen that came with a 1.6 (N16A1, a turbodiesel). If that's the case, then I agree, because new cars in general are shit-tier. My old '98 is nice, though.

I bought a 2019 Volkswagen GTI Golf, bought it since its just going to be a 2018 version with slightly better performanceand can get manual since its much harder to find in burgerland. I hate having a car with previous owners because there is always a stain or dent they caused that drives me up the wall. Not to mention I don't trust people to do basic maintenance. Good news is I got it for the same price as the 2018 model.Thought it was a fun drive, which is what I want in a daily and will hopefully last me at least 10 years with proper maintenance.did I fuck up bad?
>>16097 Does it have a timing chain or a timing belt? if it has the former, do find out what the recommended interval is for a new timing chain, because they like to fail from fatigue.
>>16098 From my understanding its a timing belt.
>>16097 The GTI isn't a bad bet in itself. The thing is, it has a motherfucking SPEAKER for "better" engine sounds. Disable the shit and you'll have a reliable, fun hot hatch. Not a bad buy, even from a European pov.
>>16100 >A speaker for "better" engine sound WEW, seriously? I knew it sounded too good whenever I put it on sport mode. I did think about that RCR review of the 2017 model to, but didn't think they kept it.
>>16101 Yes. It's called soundaktor or something like that, mounted to the firewall. It should be easy to unhook it. If you want better sound, you're better off removing the hood liner, engine cover and oil pan cover.
>>16102 Thanks anon.

>>16104 Eh, it's still mad gay. Funnily, VW's best sounding engines are their diesels. I own the 2016 Polo 1.4 TDi with three pistons, and with all the sound deadening plastics pulled off it sounds really nice.
>>16104 Wtf Renault Renastella 2038 Pastis flows >>16105 The GTD sounds great tbh.
>>16104 Disgusting

>>16120 If you are painting it why stop and not go all the way? Just going to make it look worse than before.
>>16122 It was all the way.
>>16124 My bad, your picture gave me the impression you did it halfway.
