You've got 25k to pend on a car, what do you buy?

spending $20k-ish on a new car and then putting 10/20/30k of mods into it != "good car" || > luxury car in any way.

1 thing for sure, I would not spend $20-$30k on a new model car where its prior year models already litter the interstate with broken down versions of itself ( older mustangs, camaro's, etc )

Not saying some of those cars aren't nice though...

Don't confuse him with elementary mathematical symbols, he can barely read and write as it is.


I think the best thing for the OP to do is go and drive a bunch of cars and see what he would prefer.

What would you rather get into in the morning, what would you rather have on a winding open road, and what would you like to be in when you pull up in front of a bunch of friends at a party? If the answer is a Toyota Yaris, then go for your life. I'd just prefer a RWD manual with 50/50 weight distribution, a 16:9 TV, leather and solid materials, and an engine that will keep me planted into the seat.

Anybody that owns a four cylinder car that isn't an Evo or Impreza doesn't deserve to say the word "automobile".

And what's this talk about TV? The only televisions in cars I've found useful are in six person limos. Anything bigger and you're just showing off.

I guess you missed the "made up audi" part?

The Audi R8* V10 + V12 Tdi(speculation) are some of the best cars and engine combos on the road. You have no fucking clue.

You do not understand the concept of a "Good car", all you have is a chip on your shoulder about making a shitty car go fast. Anyone can do that. My first 8 cars were shitty cars with big hp engines. So eat a dick and be quiet.

I was talking about the Audi Q7 (not R8 - my mistake) so shut the fuck up. Ever saw an new R8 for $70k? I guess not.
Audi R8 is a killer but I think you can get more for your money.

So like Dare Devil wrote: "Everybody's entitled to their opinion, you know what I'm sayin'?
They're like Escalades...everybody's got one."


So... anybody wanna drag race? ;)

Faggots drive luxury cars. They spend a lot of money on overpriced "sports cars" with 500 PS on 1.5 tons and think they're gangsta. I love it when some super cool asshole is trying to race me with his shitty Audi Q8 and doesn't expect the power of a light car.
I really can't understand how people spend $70k on pure junk.

Yeah and I love pulling up to "Faggots" like you in their shitty little spaceship civics or WRX's trying to race me in my S4 and I fucking destroy them every single god damn time. You suck.

And the Q7 is a fucking SUV what is that doing in your little bitchmoan cunty car-racing posts?

Everyone who talked about racing here, I sure hope you're all driving manual tranny. Racing autos is for pussies.

I personally don't like jap cars, although I do accept they're up there in terms of reliability. I go for german engineering, drive an '05 1.8T jetta and I couldn't be happier smoking retarded fags in daddy-owned 3 series.
 
BMWs are awesome, but they are pricey as shit.

Get used to spending 3x on repairs, 2x on oil changes, and other such crap. It really ads up fast.

Since I'm in saving mode right now, I'm actually getting rid of my 325i *sniff

I'm going to miss her, now I'm just driving an econo box.

I concede parts are pricey, but they last 3x as long as equivalent parts found on non-Euros.

If oil changes are more expensive, you're buying wrong or taking it to the wrong guy. I do my oil changes myself and it costs as much as it does to do on my Dad's Civic.


Don't get me wrong -- I don't think 4cyl cars are shit at all. I bought my Dad his Civic, my Mother her HRV, my Grandmother her Civic, and my brother his Swift. They're all great cars. But if you've got US$25k to spend and you consider cars being MORE than just transport from A to B, then a Euro is the only way to fly.

And get fucked if you think bolting on a turbo to a 4cyl FWD is a good idea. It's awesome fun until the third time you hit boost and blow your gearbox/drivetrain/headgasket. Or even worse: you have to race somebody on a road with corners. Get some self respect for fucks sake.

"ZOMG EUROS ARE SO UNRELIABLE JUST BUY A HYUNDAI AND BOLT ON A DISCO POTATO AND YOU'LL WIN EVERY RACE EVER" Pfffffft.
 
I got a '98 Volvo S70 I picked up for $1500. The engine was skipping, supposedly junk. Hey dumbass, its a turbo - special plugs and wires! BWAAAAHHAAAAHHAAAAA! He had the wrong shit installed!

I love it because I don't give a fuck. Its loaded. It's got a 100 airbags. It's a tank in the snow. It's got a turbo so I can spank by the old ladies when I'm running late. It's got heated seats to keep my dog warm while she hangs her head out the window and sprays drool all over the passenger side. I drive right into shopping carts and push them out of the way to create parking spots. There's 4 sedans and 3 wagons in the local junk yard to pick parts off from for pennies. It costs $136.52 a year for excise tax/registration fees. Leaves more money for me and the G/F to spend on the destination. If we want to raise hell, we take out my '67 Pontiac (and stop at every gas station, LOL).

For $25,000 I could make a dozen trips to Vegas and rent whatever exotic car I want for a day or two and get the thrill out of my system. It's kinda like that old joke: "Hey, let's run down there and fuck that cow!". I'd rather walk down and fuck them all.

I don't know if this is hearsay, assumption or just plain BS. Sure a stock civic isn't any more than a reliable, economic car, but when you open the options of aftermarket as you did this becomes a different ballgame. Civics have over the years done very well at autocross racing (road with corners). Without a turbo my nephews civic will keep up with his brothers 06 Z06 to a hundred or so and it will run forever.

BTW, worlds fastest BMW is 7.0s @198mph, fastest civic 6.54 @ 211.73mph.
