Title: Random ass car whoring thread.
Post by: timot_one on April 21, 2011, 09:59:13 AM
I've asked you guys to keep the car whoring off the chat threads, but it keeps happening over and over again.  Here is where you can discuss different cars you're thinking about getting.  Please keep it in here from now on.

UPDATE!!
Jeremy needs help finding a car.  He's offered to pay money, donate to the site, and suck your cock (if you have one).  Don't pass up such an awesome deal.

Update numero dos!! (Z edit)
I've been seeing a rise in general banter about cars in other places on the forum. As this thread has been geared towards car whoring and has some of that general banter in it, its now become the random ass car chat thread. kthxbye

Post by: accordguy04 on April 21, 2011, 12:30:24 PM
Mmmm I woulda loved to have gotten a TL, but the 6 speeds were so hard to find, every one I did find was either just out of ny price range or sold instantly.  :(

That was my problem as well, couldn’t find a 6spd to save my life. After having my Accord trans screw up on me, not really looking to deal with that again. That’s why a Cobra would work, T-56 trans is freaking bullet proof. Cobra’s are more rare than a 6MT down here. There is a white Mach 1 that I’ve had my eye on. Not as much HP or styling as the Cobra, but it’s also cheaper. I haven’t owned a Ford product in 12yrs


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: accordguy04 on April 21, 2011, 02:26:26 PM
Yeah I searched for a TL 6MT when I was lookin there were like 400 in my range... 5 of em were stick... and even one of those was the manumatic. haha

I love my buddy bob's Mach, we went the track last year and it hit 12.7.  Thing is def quick ;)

almost got a subby Legacy Spec B. but parents didn't want to buy a subby.

My dream car would be an NSX. Sure there are plenty of more powerful car, but this is a classic for me ^^.

American muscle would have to be a Cherry red mustang or a Chevy Sting Ray

Euro would be Yellow Bird.

Moot point. My Expedition was 4x2 and did just fine through the winter with all seasons. Its the driver that saves from wrecks. Not the drivetrain configuration. Anyway, if you're worried about hauling your kids around, the Cobra is not for you Jer. Might I suggest a Charger RT?

Buy the Cobra they are small and can fit in the back

The cobra has all the appropriate safety features uch as the proper child restraint anchors. What z said is true, it is never the car, it is the operator. A cobra will only go as fast as you tell it to go.

Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Mike on April 25, 2011, 10:23:26 AM
Some folks like to have a car with real power... You can mod your accord until your blue in the face but, the guy with the Cobra can spend 1/8th of the money and make 650 horses. Civic is cheaper and better on gas because its smaller.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: accordguy04 on April 25, 2011, 10:46:23 AM
i know, just bustin balls

But just never was a fan of civics, liked the way the look, hate the way they ride (my bro has one) and just not enough power for me


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: slipkord on April 25, 2011, 01:34:58 PM
Ok, figured out 100% what I’m going to do. Get a good mpg DD and then spend a few grand for a ‘hotrod’ tinker on it, drive on the weekends, hobby, carshows, etc. I’m finally happy with this decision.

That mystic cobra is looking damn good right now lol  :D

Gotta agree with cracker on this one. Had a 5th gen accord, only big problem was the the ecu went but that was on a 15 year old car ... its bound to happen.  I sold it when my uncle GAVE me an '03 monte carlo 3.4. I had it for a year and it was nothin but problems. Nothin big but just like gremlins, one day problem A would occur than the next day/week it would be either nothing wrong, problem A still or something completely different, I got tired of it real quick.  Not to mention the auto trans was slipping after having it for less than a year(which I will take most of the blame for, I got a heavy foot).  And don't even get me started on the resale... I private sold my 5th gen with 150k on it for 2300. When I traded the monte for my 7th gen they gave me 2500... wtf??? 200 more for a NINE year newer car with a little more than half of the miles? That's rediculous, so now im back in a Honda, opted for the better engine this time and couldnt be happier with 3 peddles again.

An SVT vehicle isn't like buying a truck. Everything is hand assembled, and the best parts are used. Anyone that says a Honda is more reliable than anything else is a fool. They have just as many issues as anyone. At the end of the day most cars made today by all manufactures suck. They literally don't make shit like they used to but, I can tell you that everyone in my family owns Fords and every last one of them (6 in my driveway) have had less issues than my Accord. If your buying something like an SVT vehicle, MACH 1, Saleen, or Roush your buying a collecters item at the same time. Find me a 1996 Honda that cost 30k new that you can still sell for 8 - 10k today.

I have to say that it seems like Ford has stepped up their game in the past few years.  Of the big 3, I prefer Ford over Chevy and Chrysler.  I think there was a big wake up call when the bail outs happened.  Unfortunately, Mike is right though.  None of the cars today are the quality they used to be in the past.  We live in a disposable society that was created by the manufacturers.

I still want an 04 Cobra.

Sure man.  Any special edition car like SVT, Saleen, and Roush are worth money and hold their value.  I'm sure the same is true for Chevy and Mopar counterparts.

Post by: accordguy04 on April 26, 2011, 08:42:35 AM
Ah, totally read right through the 1996 part.  Sry Mike, you win.

But while were on the topic of Mustangs, maybe you guys can help me out with this one.  Some guy on one of the other forums pissed me off, and insulted my intelligence.  Now I've never owned a mustang personally but a good bunch of my friends have (two of which having owned pretty much every gen under the sun, except 1st gen and current), so I dont consider myself mustang dumb in anyway.  This guy wrote an intro talkin about his '04 Mach 1 and he kept referring to it as an SN95 body... wouldn't an '04 be a New Edge?  I know the chassis are the same, but the body is completely different.  And up until this point, I had NEVER heard anyone refer to a New Edge as a SN95.  I could understand if he said SN95 chassis, but he didn't, he said SN95 body.  Am I goin crazy?  Or does this guy just not know shit about his own car?  What do ya think?

What does being a car whore say about a girl? Like it's ok for us men tO do it since , let's face it we are men and they shOuld bow to us. I'm sexist btw. This girl I'm talking to goes thru cars like jer does.

The new edge is still a part of the sn95, but no dumbass I've ever known, and I've known some ra-tards, has ever called a new efface sn95.

As far as the collectors items thing, mike could not have said it better, out side of stupid rich kids with daddy's money, people buyvthem to collect. In fact, the Saleen club of America projects the value of saleen vehicles(before SMS) to increase by $4-6k because what little bit of a company Saleen has left has been ordered out of business by it's parent company. The proof is in the numbers, I mean shit, my car was assembled by hand in Michigan. I know thiscforca fact because I've talked to thecguy who put it together. Only 954 people had the ability to own 2000 model year Saleen cars, of that , 252 were supercharged coupes. Most other "limited edition" cars are mass produced.

Sorry Bud.  it will make a nice project car.  Haven't decided if I'm going to keep it a stock, vintage car or drop some serious Chevy power into it.  I've thought about dropping a 572 crate motor into it but I doubt it would fit.  The motor alone cost around $15 grand.

That sounds pretty sweet Jason. Personally, I wouldn't be able to leave well enough alone. I'd be dropping some serious power between the rails of that Vette.

Mike, as for special edition vehicles like the SVT, Saleen, Roush and what not, its still newer than 1987 so I still consider it crap. That can be said for all auto manufacturers. Nothing is made like it was used to.

Country, that's pretty damn cheap but the mileage for that year worries me.

I disagree... Normal cars yes but, when the time is taken to hand build a car it's generally made to last. My Cobra was boosted through the roof with no engine work done, and I put 50K on it with 0 problems!

Easy to add an M90 SC to that car to!!!


Today I've got a few thoughts running through my head today. My car is at about 95K. It's got some small issues that need repair but, I'm debating just moving onto something else. I'm not sure what I should do. I've looked at 4 different cars today, and I'm lost and sort of looking for what others think

1. 04-06 TSX 6 Speed
2. 05-06 Pontiac GTO (6.0L LS2 has fun writtien all over it)
3. 2000 Honda Civic SI
4. 2000 - 2004 Mustang GT
5. Keep my accord and dump the 2 or 3k into it to make it last a few more years..


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: gargantula99 on April 27, 2011, 12:53:23 PM
I would keep it.  But that's just me.  Only way I'm getting out of my car is if it's totaled and blows up.

How much can you realistically get for it?


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

It all depends on what you want out of your next car Mike. Here are my thoughts

1. 04-06 TSX 6 Speed – Nice/Plush/decent power from a K24 (premium gas)
2. 05-06 Pontiac GTO (6.0L LS2 has fun writtien all over it) Lots of power/very poor mpg, but fun factor might outweigh that
3. 2000 Honda Civic SI – decent power, can be had for pretty cheap
4. 2000 - 2004 Mustang GT – same as above
5. Keep my accord and dump the 2 or 3k into it to make it last a few more years.. – HELL NO, SELL IT NOW

Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Jeff Likes Bagels on April 27, 2011, 02:21:39 PM
I know I haven't really contributed much to this thread, but here is my main concern.

If you're looking for a DD, but want something that has a fun factor to it, I would consider getting some that takes regular unleaded. With gas prices on the rise, that would suck to have to pump premium into your DD all the time.

Granted I'm sure you've already put that into consideration, but I just wanted to bring it up. That would be a deciding factor for me if I were to get a new car right now. That is why when I do end up upgrading, I'll probably stick with an Accord v6 6mt. A TSX or a TL would be nice, but having to put premium in it would get really old really fast.

Now getting a weekend car and a beater like you guys have been talking about would be cool. The only thing that comes up in mind would be maintaining two cars at once. Oh well, I don't really have much experience with owning cars, considering that my 7th Gen is the only car I've ever owned.

Mike- for what its worth, last year I sold my 05 EXL K24 with 200,000 miles on it for $7,000 on cars.com.  I'd think you should be able to get more than $8K for yours.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Mike on April 27, 2011, 02:41:15 PM
It's been in a major accident but, of course I will try for more.. I don't really consider the cost of fuel or needing premium into my consideration because my commute is about 6 miles each way to my office. Currently I put gas in my Accord once every two weeks, and generally its about 12 gallons.

Post by: exelr8 on April 27, 2011, 03:14:30 PM
Really, there is not much difference in buying premium , if it's 30-40 cents more a gallon, then you are looking at up to four dollars more a fill up based on acten gallon purchase.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: timot_one on April 27, 2011, 08:22:18 PM
Jeremy pretty much summed up what I would say about your choices Mike.  Another thing you may want to consider with the Civic Si, Mustang GT, and the Goat is that they were probably beaten on.  The TSX may have taken some abuse, but it's less likely.  The other thing I would consider is the age of what you were going to get.  Maintenance for an older car can start to add up over time.

Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: timot_one on April 27, 2011, 09:30:34 PM
It's a different story when you compare a beater DD, when you plan on having a nice weekend car, and when you plan on getting a DD as your only form of transportation.  If it was my only car, I would go with something newer and nicer.  Another thing would be the Si has a tendency to get stolen.  I'd love to have one, but it wouldn't be my DD.  Of all those cars that Mike listed, I'd get a TSX 6MT.  If it was a weekend car, I'd probably try and get the Mustang or Civic Si.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: CrackerTeg on April 27, 2011, 11:01:46 PM
I'm with Tim on that one. When I was shopping for my car, I looked at the TSX but the deciding factor to get me into the Accord was the rear leg room for my kids. As I had the 2nd gen TL, the TSX's rear leg room was identical to that and it sucked. Now Mike, if I were you, I'd look into a manual especially due to your track record with autotragics failing like they have been. Now, if you could find a 666 Accord sedan, you'd have the best of both worlds. Room, and fun factor.

It’s hard to find one cheap enough without having over 100k on it. I almost pushed the button on an 07 G35 sedan but $24k would mean a high note.

Post by: Mike on April 29, 2011, 03:53:42 PM
Pretty sure thats a JDM type R front end or at least the replica of one. It is a real type R the vin number they posted has a 4 as the 3rd character indicating that it is a type R


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: slipkord on April 29, 2011, 03:54:59 PM
Interesting...$9k for a real type R...Is that normal? Seems on the low side.
Teg would be a great DD though, no?

Post by: accordguy04 on April 29, 2011, 04:35:28 PM
Slip,

I sorry, I was just joking, its not an actual 5th gen front end swap... I always just loved the Type Rs because the front end DOES look A LOT like a 5th gen accord... :D


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Mike on April 29, 2011, 05:53:25 PM
Not a USDM Type R looks nothing like an Accord... It's a pretty good price I've seen them as high as 14k and obviously with higher mileage.

pass fr fender has a small dent by the fender blinker
Looks lowered, who knows what he used
Pass headlight is yellow
missing driver side vent visor

Looks like new tires. Interior is in pristine condition. The above can all be fixed for fairly cheap, minus the fender.

Very true! If I were single it would be a cool car to toy with, might still be. I have to think about it. It's kind of a small car. But low miles type R, hard to beat I guess.

Do it Jer. I've always been a huge fan of the DC2 Type R and would go up to Pensacola myself and steal it out from under your nose if you don't jump on it. I'd much prefer one in Phoenix yellow but Flamenco black works. All that shit you mentioned is cheap to fix though. As for size, I was running around in my DA for a while with one kid and the wife in there. Its definitely not family car sized. It sure would be a fun DD/ toy. Can't beat the sound of a high revving B18C5.

Post by: exelr8 on April 29, 2011, 11:35:51 PM
Jer, the only two problems I see with the cobra are: the front plate, and the shift light. The front plate should not have a mount so they may have drilled holes in the front bumper for it... would not really make a difference if you kept a front plate on it, no biggie. The second is the shift light. When someone has a shift light like that installed, they are either old and not very good at knowing whne to shift(more than likely with this car given the miles and other mods) or someone hot rodded it but not very much given the mileage. Another thing to look into is the vehicle history, mostly the miles driven per year. if it has been a lot rod, I would make sure to have it inspected which it should be fine, but things that have sat all of their life and never been driven may run into problems. It looks to be a good cobra and well worth the price.

Found a BMW I kinda like... I have always been drawn to BMW's but the maintenance on them is killer. Caleb can work on them and get parts cheaper than I can so it does not seem so bad..

My issues with it is it has a new front clip, could have been in a wreck. Its missing the original steering wheel, which is usualy a give a way. Wing is missing too. Just too much stuff off with the car. I like it otherwise though.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Mike on May 01, 2011, 10:41:13 AM
That front clip swap is not a sign of a wreck at all. It is the single most common mod among DC5 Integras. Ask them if you can look at it on a lift you will know if it was in a wreck.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: exelr8 on May 01, 2011, 11:46:35 AM
Take into consideration the average owner of a car like that though. Yes I am being stereotypical, but a car like an itr is a lot more likely to be ragged on and molested especially with the fast and furious craze over the past few years


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: CrackerTeg on May 01, 2011, 02:33:46 PM
Mike, the chassis is DC2. The DC5 is the RSX.

Country, not necessarily. ITR's aren't exactly common vehicles. Same as your Saleen. Anyone could make that argument over any sports car. The steering wheel swap is another common mod. The wing isn't a big deal. I've seen most ITR owners remove the wing to make it less of a thief target. Consider ITR owners the connoisseurs of the Integra world much like Saleen owners being the same for the Mustang world.

Title: Re: Car Whores United!

Not to mention that they were sold at a high price so it kept alot of them out of the hands of people who would beat them.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: CrackerTeg on May 02, 2011, 05:11:10 AM
Forgot about that. Also, if you were to compare the value of an ITR with X number of miles versus, say a GSR of the same year, the ITR is worth more and most people wouldn't go for it because they use the argument that they can get a newer vehicle for that same amount of money.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: exelr8 on May 03, 2011, 09:30:48 PM
So I am really giving a lot of thought to another accord... either a 7th or 8th...

or a TL, I found this one, and yes, I do sort of want an automatic...

If I wanted a TL, would I be better served to go ahead and find a Type-S?

The problem comes when you actually tell yourself you're done, you won't be ready to be done.  You'll find that buying an auto you'll be craving the manual within just a few weeks.  I haven't owned a manual car since before I had my accord.. I still miss shifting..

Carfax reports 8 records, and Autocheck reports 9 records for that TSX.

That seems high for an individually owned car, so there's something up with it.

Possibly reported accidents, or the owner moved a lot.  Unless he got all dealer maintenance and the dealer reported all service trips, but I'm not sure if that shows up as a separate record on Carfax.

If you're serious about it, check into the carfax and then make sure to take a look at the car.. Check for flood damage, miscolored body panels, weird gaps, VIN numbers, etc..

Well, a lot of the other cars that I have been looking at have a high number of carfax records. Some had upwards of 20 records. Most of them were when the vehicle registration was renewed or whatever though.

These cocksuckers are pissing me off though! The guy with the TSX and the guy with the white Accord haven't called back at all... why fucking list the thing if you aren't going to pick up your damn phone?

Now we've been looking at Enterprise's used car inventory... you can blame the guy that works there when we went to go pick up a rental car today. He got my mom hooked on it. Here is what my mom's been looking at so far:

http://www.enterprisecarsales.com/carsales/vehicleDetails.do?carIndex=4&vin=1HGCM56317A110173 (http://www.enterprisecarsales.com/carsales/vehicleDetails.do?carIndex=4&vin=1HGCM56317A110173)

Opinions?

I think it looks alright. The guy did say that the top 5% of their fleet cars get sold, so it's not like they're trying to sell their piece of shit run down cars.

I just wish these motherfuckers would call me back!

Listen to Jer, he's a pro at this.

In terms of the rental cars, 9 times out of 10 I return the car with suspension damage because I beat on them like a red headed step child.  Also, the cars get repaired at their own shops not dealers.  Which isn't to say it's a bad thing, just something to think about. On the bright side, nothing drives like a rental. LoL.

i worked at avis rent a car for two years. in a small airport so i knew all the big companies, they all got repaired at dealerships. they were all under warrenty. this is the way we did it in eugene. maybe different somewhere else. but i would never buy a rental car, first because customers beat the car to shit, and second the  employees are just as bad if not worse. mainly the tranny and breaks.

Well, I've looked at accords, a Tacoma, an f150, a Colorado, a Lexus, and a brand new gti. I believe I have finally found something that suits all of my needs, a 2010 ford exploder. My good friend has an explorer and get way better mileage that what it's rated at, plus I can put cheap gas in it :P. I am beginning to feel cramped in my car , as well as tired of the attention it brings. While it brings good attention from females, it attracts idiots that either want to street race or ask four hundred questions about a car that they are unable to pronounce. On top of that, I just need more space.

What y'all think of this:

Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: alpha on May 13, 2011, 03:27:28 AM
I agree on not purchasing a rental car.

I've driven my fair share of rental cars, and I know for a fact that I wouldn't buy one because of the way I drive it.

I don't beat rental cars to shit, but I also don't care what type of fuel I use.  I'll fill up at the nearest gas station to the airport, which may mean Shell or Chevron, or it may mean Arco or Billy Joe Bob's Gas Station.

Plus you don't know how others drove the car.  Hitting potholes, doing donuts, brake slams, e-brake slides, etc..

Usually, people don't do that stuff with their personal vehicle.  But a rental car, that's a whole different ballgame..

Jeff, does your next car have to be an Accord or TSX?  What about taking out a small financing loan, if you can keep up with the payments?  It can help you broaden your selection and help you build your credit.  Interest rates are pretty good right now.

There's also an option of not paying off your next car with the money you get from insurance.  So, say for this example scenario:

Insurance money being received: $10,000
Car cost: $15,000

Say you were to take half of the insurance money and put it as a downpayment.  If you were to finance the other $10k for 3 years at 3% APR, you would be looking at a $291 payment, not including financing any tax.  Depending on your tax and registration cost, you may be looking at say a $300 payment.  Stretch that payment over 5 years, and you could be looking at a $180 to $190 monthly payment.

If that's a manageable monthly payment, then you're building credit for the future, and you have an extra $5k of expendable income to place in your savings account.

You also don't need to keep the loan for its whole term.  You can payoff the loan early, but make sure that you get a loan that won't penalize you for early payoff.

But that's an example.. You don't have to do it, but its another option to think about if you're willing to consider it.

Post by: exelr8 on May 13, 2011, 03:08:48 PM
I got a call earlier at the Toyota dealer. While I was there I found a truck I really like. It's a 2011 regular cab Tacoma 4cyl, 4x4 auto. It is 23k sticker, but I know the invoice on it so I can haggle very well on it. Now I'm stuck betweena brand new Tacoma with warranty or a 2010 explorer with 28k miles and no warranty and a 5k price difference.  

I like cloth better, you dint stick to it, it doesn't burn you in summer and does turn to ice in winter. My .02


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: slipkord on May 13, 2011, 03:54:29 PM
U can put a warranty on the explorer for less than $5k, a better one probably.

Leather is the shit, ill buy nothing else, if u get burned ur a pussy and don't deserve leather and should buy a corolla with cloth


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: alpha on May 13, 2011, 04:32:06 PM
There's nothing like new car warranty.

The 2010 explorer should have the remainder of its new car warranty though.

As for leather or cloth.. I, most of the time, prefer leather..  Does Alcantara count as cloth?

The explorer runs out of factory warranty it was purchased in June 09 and the warranty was activated. I can purchase a private warranty for less, but as mark said it's not as good as a factory warranty I would rather have warranty work performed by factory certified technicians at a dealership without a bunch of bs claims workand paperwork that goes along with it

I just tried to make a deal on the explorer I went off on their sales manager. First when he drove the Saleen he slipped the shit out of my clutch then the jackass sends his salesman out with a buyers guide with an offer of 6 grand because hecthinks it is fake. So I politely in a violent manor inform him of it's origin and pulled him outside and showed him the vin tags then I threw him the keys to the explorer and told him to "practice safe sex and go fuck yourself"

^god speed to that mike..

so I'm getting the itch. and it began with this - I went to get new wiper blades from walmart for the civic.  I didn't realize that this was a hard thing to do.  my year, and ONLY my year, honda decided to come up with some god awful design that makes it very difficult to find the blades to replace it with.  long story short, I had to order them through majestic honda (only $20 which is nice) since no one around here carries that type.

anyways, point of this post is that I'm looking to replace the civic again.  I can't deal with such a shitty car anymore.  Looking to find something in the $10k-$13k range so that the negative equity I'll be inheriting won't kill me.  Looking at altima's and camry's.. my stipulation is that it has to be a 4 door (planning for future).. reliable, and relatively luxurious (be nice not to have the road noise drown out my radio).  I don't want an accord (really only like the coupes), and I believe acura's are out of my price range..

I'm just wondering how this affects you financially and how it affects your credit if you constantly change out cars.  I've never been one to car whore, because I didn't think it would be financially responsible.  I must assume that in the long run, you lose a lot of money and hurt your credit by changing your mind about what car you like driving every month or so.

Its crossed my mind as to how this affects you as well, Jer, buts it's none of my business so that's why i never asked the question. Now that Tim's asked it, I'm curious to know the answer. From my experience, I changed cars once half way through a loan term and I think it added an couple of grand or so to my new loan. Unless you're paying cash right off the top, which is cool too.

Well, my credit took a substantial hit when I traded the accord  what people often do not realize is when you finance through the dealership they send you through every bank to see which one gives the best rate and will pay them more off of the interest rate. I didn't know it. And you generally always take a loss trading vehicles. I had 2300 in negitive equity in the diesel.

Alright guys, here's an update on my situation.

We've looked at about 5-6 Accords, from both dealers and private sellers. Every single one of them sucked ass in their own special way.

Now we've run out of options, so we have no choice but to wait it out a bit. There's an '08 TL-S at a local Chevy dealership, but they won't go below $22,000.

God damnit!!!!

What do you guys think of the new Ford Fusion? I think they look pretty sweet, but I don't know how they are internal-wise.

How much mileage does the TL-S have?  That may not be a bad deal for that car..


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Jeff Likes Bagels on May 20, 2011, 05:50:59 PM
It has like 44k.

We just found a base TL for $16k... it's an 05 with 67k miles. We may jump on that one.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Jeff Likes Bagels on May 21, 2011, 01:07:43 PM
God damnit!!! Everything is getting sold the day it goes online!!!

What would you guys prefer... a TL or a TSX? The reason why I ask is because I can get either for only about $2,000 more than an Accord, which is ridiculous, I know. At that price, I might as well upgrade. The TL's are definitely nice, and so are the TSX's. It's a tough decision. :P


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: slipkord on May 21, 2011, 01:10:23 PM
TSX is smaller, better mpgs, but less power, other than that, their the same. I would get a TL, but that's just me


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Jeff Likes Bagels on May 21, 2011, 01:19:59 PM
I'm thinking the same. I think I would rather get a TL, mainly because you get a lot more car, and the ones I've been seeing are the same price as a used TSX.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: slipkord on May 21, 2011, 01:23:47 PM
TL yiur ging to see more mpg tho, TL is a heavy car.its al abt what your looking for

I'll admit, you made me think for a second there, Jer.

Fucking shit, why does everything have to get sold! I just found this though:

Edit: We just found this:

My parents are hauling ass over there now to try and let us keep it overnight to test drive it. I was out of town, so I couldn't go over there. Hopefully this will be the one.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Jeff Likes Bagels on May 21, 2011, 06:56:35 PM
Sorry for the bump.

We're pretty set on getting that car (link above), despite the fact that they won't go any lower. (like $17k out the door). It's in almost perfect condition (only problem is the paint got chipped on a mirror... easily fixable).

What do you guys think of the price? The sales tax is what kills you, unfortunately.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Mike on May 21, 2011, 09:42:13 PM
Mileage is pretty low that price isn't bad.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

Price isn't too bad but the mileage isn't bad either. Too bad its an auto though.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: slipkord on May 22, 2011, 09:51:17 AM

All the bad luck people have been having here with their cm's got me thinking what I would get if something were to happen to mine.  I'm thinking TL type sh-awd, camaro, an old land rover defender 90, an S2k, Volvo S60.

All with manual 6-speeds.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: CrackerTeg on May 29, 2011, 01:48:15 PM
Since you mentioned the TL SH-AWD, NO!

That thing is fucking hideous. No amount of paint matching the front grille will make that car attractive. As for the Land Rover, I don't know much about those but I don't think they ever came with a manual. I could be wrong on that. The other options are not bad so long as the Camaro is an SS. Anything less than that is crap. My .02.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: gargantula99 on May 29, 2011, 08:12:34 PM
The defender 90 is from the mid 1990's.  They stopped bringing them over back then because of the air bag requirements.  But you're right, they only came in 5 speeds.  

The Camaro would definitely be an SS.  Or be without a car for a while.

Post by: status on June 05, 2011, 12:30:15 PM
country, i dunno how big you are but im 5'11 280, and since i started looking at bikes i said the same thing. but after riding 3 different 250cc, theyre fun, but i wouldnt feel comfortable on the freeway or somewhere where the speed zone is 55+ for a while. i rode a cb750 loved it but it had alot of things wrong with it but in 1st gear you could feel the pull it had and it was intense.


anyways, my .02, on monday gonna look at a suzuki gs500 hopefully get it for a steal.

Thanks Nelson... Yeah I spent the whole week of my most recent vacation taking care of business setting myself up in my new position within my car club and researching rangers... I was originally going to get this 03 sonic blue ranger they had but they sold it before I got there and So I went and looked at a 2011... My monthly payment went up 64 bucks and my insurance went up a total of 14 bucks. Which is not bad considering I bought something Brand new that no one has ever had or abused...

So your paying $80 bucks more for a Ranger?? I would have kept the Saleen and hoped for the best  :mob: :kkk:

This coming from the person who traded in his S2K for an Accord with a bad transmission.  PFFFttttt....
I made a mistake, tried to help him out but nobody listens to me

I drove the HS250h when it first came out just for shits and giggles and it was awful. I don't care about the persona of driving a small hybrid, it was the car I didn't like. I haven't driven the Lexus CT hybrid yet, I'll stop by next time I'm in Nashville and take it for a spin, but I could see it being fun. I think it looks pretty cool too.

There's no reason to pay the premium on a Prius when a Civic can get 40mpg, give or take.  You won't recover the extra money you spend on the Prius over a Civic in fuel savings during the time you own the car.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: accordguy04 on June 17, 2011, 09:54:43 AM
I'll tell ya what NOT to get if your goin for gas mileage.  A Kia Forte.  My mom got on and it gets a pretty decent 31 mpg, but thats NOTHING when you compare it to what Kia "claims" is their mileage, which is 38 mpg.  My moms commute is all highway from Bethlehem to Scranton and the highest she has gotten is 31 mpg (and she is a driving saint, never 2 mph over the limit, lol)  It just really sucks and pisses my dad off because he and my mom have had Hondas for years (Accords for my dad, and an Odyssey for my mom), it pisses him off because with every Honda he's had, what Honda "claimed" the mpg was... WAS the mpg.  So goin from that to it being almost a full 10 mpg off, sucks!
And don't even get me started on the Sorrento (4 cyl), i took it to NYC last month with 4 ppl in it and three bikes on the back and it made 19 mpg?!?!  I made more in my 6-6 with a full car and a stuffed tight trunk on the way down to NC last summer (29 mpg).

Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: wtcii on June 19, 2011, 01:39:22 PM
Speaking of gas milage I drove the LS460 from Nashville to Irvington. It was about 700 miles and drove 80 pretty much the whole way. I averaged 31.5 mpg revving at about 1750 rpms. It had 5 people in it and the trunk was filled with luggage. That plus the fact that it is a 4.6 L V8 with almost 400 hp, I would say it was pretty amazing. Oh, and it is rated at 24 mpg for the hwy. City sucks though.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: slipkord on June 19, 2011, 04:01:04 PM
How in the hell could you hit 7 mpg more than epa??


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: wtcii on June 19, 2011, 04:33:07 PM
I honestly have no idea. Maybe Lexus just rated it low. I put BP midgrade in it one of the fill ups and thats the tank I got 31.5 on. The first tank was premium costco and I got 27-28 mpg.. Around town we get 15-17 mpg. It is rated at 16. I'm guessing the 8 speed transmission just helps a ton on the hwy. Now that I think about one time I tried to be efficient as possible on a drive from Nashville to Tupelo and managed to get 36 in the ES350. That was 59 mph for 75% of the miles. I filled up at the gas station right by my grandparents house then got on the highway then got on the Natchez Trace Parkway. That 36 was short lived and with the AC off. I did have my cooled seat on. Maybe Lexus just rates their cars low. We have 3 RX's and they are all either below or right at EPA.

I was informed of what my car situation is gonna be a couple months ago. So I have 2.5 to 3 years left with the Accord or when I graduate college. I have been driving a RX330 for a while now though. Back on topic to car whores. I'm entertaining the idea of a Z71 Tahoe then on the complete opposite end of the spectrum a M3 convertible. Part of me wants function and utility and the other part wants to go FAST! I could always swap a LS7 in a Tahoe, haha! I'm sure I will change my mind 300 times before I actually pull the trigger.

My uncle had that body style CTS with the 200 hp 3.2L V6.  Fun car, but not really anything to write home about. This bigger engine might have changed my mind, but I cannot say, for sure.


So this won't be happenin any time soon, but I've been considerin my next car.  I'd like to hold onto the Accord, and once its paid off pick somethin else up.  I figure that by the time I'm ready (i.e. better job, accord paid off, home of my own) the 4th Gen TL 6MT's ('10 or '11) should be down to my price range.  I was considering getting one as a daily and projecting my Accord (aka finally getting the CT kit :)).  But another thought popped into my head the other day thats always been there.  Keep the Accord as my daily and pick up a project S2k and probably get that Turbo jawn or an s/c.  Which do you guys think?  The S2k would def be cheaper to buy, but the mod bug would hit hard. lol.

I would pass on the Caddy too.  I doubt you'd be happy with it Jer.

Ryan, it all depends on what you actually want.  The Accord can be a great project car if you want the TL as a DD.  It all depends on whether you're going to be happy with the Accord as a daily or as a project car.  If you were going to build the Accord, I'd pass on the Comptech SC and have Paul build you his M90 SC kit instead.

If it were me, I'd keep my Accord and continue on it's path, get an 08 RL to leave basically stock as a DD/road trip car, and then get a S2K for a fun weekend car.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: accordguy04 on June 30, 2011, 10:45:05 AM
Nice. Lol.  Well as I like the RLs too, I want the TL cause I'm def a stick guy (giggity).  I haven't reached that lazy stage in life (not sayin you have) where I no longer wanna bother with a third petal.

Didnt say cheaper to mod, cheaper to BUY. lol.  I'll prolly end up gettin the TL.  I looked at a 3rd Gen 6MT before I bought my Accord, only found 4 6MTs within like 500 miles... and with every one, they were either just out of my price range or by the time I called they were gone. :(

I know what you said.  I read it correctly.

If I were you, I would keep the Accord as a daily and mod an s2k.  The TL would make a very nice daily though.

But it depends on the condition of your Accord and if you trust keeping it as a daily.

Going to bite the bullet and get a TL type S or 2009+ TSX or 07+ TL.

Been sick as fuck all day so been looking all day and lots of medical induced soul searching. All TL-S I can find are autos, how are those trans? I'm torn between them all but of course the type S is #1. Someone help me, either with my addiction of cars or find me a car.

DO EEET!  Seriously, comparing the reg TL (which you can get in a 6MT) to the TL-S (which im pretty sure you cant... go figure)  The Reg TL is only shy 16 hp.  Throw a CAI on and a Borla Exhaust and you'll be right up with the TL-S.  Then throw on a nice set of Tein S. Techs and your choice of shocks.  All that will just about make it a TL-S.  And it'll still prolly be cheaper than buyin a TL-S.  Oh, I even saw on ebay that they have a TL to TL-S conversion kit (taillights, smoked markers, and some other goodies) its only like $200.  Thats my .02. :D

Sadly... no.  The latest Gen TSX DOES come with the option of a V6, but all of them are Auto... which is retarded, because the allure to the TSX for me was ALWAYS the SHAWEET 6sp.

Different engine options, and the Toyota version has awd issues. The Lexus is a lot better product in this case.

Lol, my 6-6 put down 221 whp with a cold air and a borla cat back... kinda sad the VQ put down that much supercharged. haha

Well, I was lookin at it and a friend of mine thinks its a fake, cause in the movie the exhaust came thru the bumper, which I seem to remember, but cant find any pics on the net to verify.  I def know the guy changed the wheels, in which case, if this is a legit hero car... he is an idiot. haha


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: gargantula99 on July 13, 2011, 02:41:44 PM
I don't remember the side exhaust, but I'm pretty sure it didn't have Altezza lights either.

I do remember it having a park bench for a rear wing.  Just because you need all that downforce to keep the car grounded.  220 WHP and all.

This is the best I could find on the net, you can just barely see the exhaust stickin out, right behind the passenger side rear wheel.  But I know I remember seeing it when he burns out leavin Doms house.

When he burns out leaving dom's house, you see the driver side of the car, not the passenger side.

I don't see any exhaust on that photo.  I think the Jetta was the one with the side exhaust.  Mike, check out the race wars scene for the Jetta.

You might be able to see it on the Maxima when he pulls up to Torreto's.  The sandwich spot, where nobody likes the Tuna.

Regardless, we've given this POS maxima too much time.  A Fiat 500 could beat that thing off the line.

Post by: accordguy04 on July 13, 2011, 04:50:23 PM
Look at the pic!  Right in the middle of the Jettas bumper theres that little nub stickin out from behind the wheel = side exit exhaust.  

http://youtu.be/cWAVIZcYXew (http://youtu.be/cWAVIZcYXew)
And you do see part of the passenger side when he burns out (0:04, and you can just barely make out a glimpse of the side exit exhaust and pause it at 0:07 to clearly see it)... MOTHER FUCKER DO NOT CHALLENGE ME ON MY FAST AND FURIOUS! :D

You know what... I loved the hatch's when they came out and wasn't much of a fan of the sedans, but I keep seein this WRX sedan on my way home from work.  I don't know it its the color, or what, and it looks stock, doesn't look lowered or anything, but it is justa MEAN lookin car. :D

I'd say go with the WRX though. The STI is only .2 of a second quicker to 60 (with an extra 50 hp... try explainin that).  That's what I'd do, buy a WRX put the 5-10k that I saved from the STI into it and WALK STIs left and right. :D

So.. I have been thinking about trading my car here lately. I was planning on getting an S2000 this time of year, but I decided that a 2 door convertible didn't make much sense for a sophomore in college to have. Then I decided that I was going to buy my Uncles Ducati. I decided pretty quick that I don't trust myself with a bike. I should have a little bit of savings when I start school. I'm thinking about applying my savings to trading my car on an E46. I think it would be a little more fun and a change of scenery. I'm kinda thinking if I could find a manual it could be kinda fun. What do you guys think?

Post by: wtcii on July 19, 2011, 01:02:06 AM
That's kinda what I figured. I am not sure how reliable Edmunds is but from what I can tell the 01 isn't that bad. It was rated "good" in everything but engine. It said it had moderate problems and listed them. It was about a $400 repair. Overall it received a 5 out of 5 rating. The 02-03 had significant problems with the engine and moderate with the transmission and drive line. The 04 was a little better. It didn't have any "significant problems".

I'm honestly really sad that they are discontinuing it (or have they already...)  It only had one Gen, thats hardly enough to perfect anything.  I wanted to see a 2nd Gen that was more of a truck and less of a Chevy Avalanche... and a God Damn V8! :D

There are some kit cars I don't mind.... Old Shelby Cobra kits for instance.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: timot_one on July 21, 2011, 08:57:16 AM
True.  The Factory 5 kit cars are really nice.  I just really hate the body kit cars where you take a run of the mill junker and make it look like a high end car.  At least the Factory 5 Shelby Cobra is a complete car, and not just a body kit for an existing car like a Miata.  I've wanted to get a 32 Ford three window coupe from Brookville Roadster, since there's no way I'll ever own an original.

So, I was driving around Cincinnati today and came across a white G8 GXP that sounded like it had an exhaust and a cam.  I thought it sounded fairly decent and went on my way.  I was talking to a supervisor at one of my accounts, and know that he has a bone stock turbo Cobalt SS.  He was telling me about the same car I ran into and said he ran it.  Kinda sad that his turbo Cobalt SS beat the G8 GXP.  He thinks the owner has the a/t and is just a shitty driver.  It sounded fucking mean, but it must have been all bark with no bite.

I'm lettin the B.S. flag fly on this one...

No way is a 250 hp Cobalt Turbo beating a 402 hp GXP...sry I just don't believe it, unless the Cobalt did a ricer flyby and called it a win.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: timot_one on July 26, 2011, 12:29:33 AM
Well, I wasn't there.  I said the same thing to the guy with the Cobalt.  He was also surprised.  He thinks it's because it's an a/t and the guy is a douche and just doesn't know how to drive.  Either way, I should find that fucker and take him.

Well an at would make a difference from a dig. It wouldn't miss a shift or take as long to shift and can launch better with the right driver... Those gxp's are no joke we had one put a few cars on us in my friends stock ls1 camaro.

Dream on, the NSX (1st gen w/ the flip lights) is just BEAUTY to me.  I would love to have either a a blue one or the red with black roof two tone. I see a couple around town with undeserving pricks driving em.  With ugly ass pep boys chrome rims (seriously).  I kept seein one at the garage down the street from my house and I asked whos it was, the mechanic told me it was the owners son and he was having them put this haggard ass exhaust on it, and that it made him sad cause he knew it was gonna turn the symphony that is the C30 into a raspy pos.  I also see this red one on my way to work in the morning, the kid can't be any older than me... makes me wish my mommy and daddy had more money. But then when I think about it, I'm happy with my life, so I'll just have to save up and get one. ;)


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: alpha on July 26, 2011, 04:22:41 PM
Oh, don't get me wrong.  The NSX is a fantastic car.  One of my friend's has a red one, with a bunch of jrzs and taitec stuff.  He is looking at possibly selling it, so if you're interested, let me know..

But.....  It's also a 20 year old car..  I'm a fan of new technology, very few old cars that'll get my attention.  Granted the NSX is one of them, but at this point, I don't really dream of owning one..

Now cars like the 599 GTO, SVR 458 Italia (minus the ugly front fender thingy), Carerra GT, 918 Spyder..


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

Just for shits n' giggles, I looked up on Autotrader for any nearby NSX's. There were only two, and both of them were going for about $60,000. I think one of them had a Comptech S/C on it. The other had a completely redone interior. I didn't realize they went for that much!

depends on the year.. NA1's can be had much cheaper than that.. what you were looking at must have been NA2's, and even then, that seems high..


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: accordguy04 on July 26, 2011, 11:52:52 PM
The cheapest one I've seen is for just under 20k for a NA1... which is what I would want... I'd add a Comptech myself ;)

I saw another si, so two on the block:
07 51k certified $18k black
09 26k $20.6k white

I hate the Mugen front lip... I'd rather just buy an Si and put a JDM front and Mugen spoiler, not sure if you can swap the rear end...
Only real difference is the tail lights and they do swap over. I saw those up close a lot in the mid east.

For 2k more get the one with half the mileage.  I'm 6'-2", and when I sat in the driver seat of an si sedan, nobody could sit behind me.

Torque steer from hell
Get a chiropractor on speed dial
Reliability issues

Look at it this way...  its a short term relationship to begin with plus there is no such thing as a perfect car (not even the CM i.e. last week's recall for tranny issues).  Buy a car that works, drive it for a few years and move on to the next one.

That could be a simple fix.  You can either make them fix the problem, or make them knock off like $2000 from the price and fix it yourself.  Most likely it's a bad CMC or CSC if you're not getting any pedal pressure.

It's kinda sad that Chevy does a lot of shit talking in their commercials (or at least did in the past) about other manufacturers, but their cars are still cheaply built.  At least one of the big 3 seems to be stepping up their game.  Too bad Chevy and Chrysler haven't figured out why their cars suck still.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Mike on August 12, 2011, 11:52:45 PM
I think the big three lost momentum when they tried to enter the same turf as the imports. Build what you good at. The 5.0 and straight six were great engines then they moved to a 4.6 V8, and 4 cyl shit. It's mostly the 4 cyl cars that gave for a bad name. Trucks and Mustangs have always done pretty damn well


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: timot_one on August 13, 2011, 12:02:58 AM
I think they started to decline when they realized that it was better to make cars that were disposable instead of making them reliable.  IMHO, they got too greedy and made their cars too shitty to last longer than 5 years.

'32 Ford 3 Window Full Fender Coupe
'55 Chevy 210 with a 572

I cannot refuse it... He has a black 77 hard top Firebird. It is in a shop right now having the engine rebuilt. He had a head gasket go out on him and went ahead and spent about 3k worth of parts on it and it needs to be rebuilt, but all the parts are there. It just needs to be transported from cookeville TN to my house and I can handle the rest. I cant tell you guys the price on here, some may get mad.

My buddy just picked up an '07 S40 T5 AWD 6MT.  It had 27k on the ticker and needed a new front end (all cosmetic, no frame damage)  Picked it up for 8K! Put 3 or 4k into it and now its pretty bad ass, he got a badgless grill it looks pretty cool.  So he got an '07 T5 6MT with under 30k for under $12k... crazy shit right there.

I was going to say that this is the 73rd time you've thought about getting "another" Accord.  I'd say make a decision and stick with it.  I wouldn't expect the car you drive to bring you happiness.  I haven't driven my car in 3 months, but get to walk past it every day in a dismantled state as I get into my 2007 Chevy Uplander.  Yet, I'm still content.  Just not with the Uplander.  ;D

It’s a cool blue metallic color, now sure how I feel about that color. Definitely don’t see many of those around. I’m moreso leaning towards it because of the low miles and certification. Maybe with 17s and a lip it would look better.

Well, I wouldn't say that.  A Type S has a much better motor when compared to the K20A3 found in the EP3.  Realistically, it's not exactly the practical car he wants for the family or the sports car he wants for his mid life crisis.

I disagree I love that body style. However that is the wrong year for power reasons. Its the early years of the switch to the 4.6L You would rather have a pre 1996 which still carries the 5.0 or something from 03-05 not sure when they stopped super charging them but the blower makes the 4.6 okay.

Yeah yeah, 800 channels and nuttins on, either.

OK, so I got the whole sports car thing out of my system. I’m going to go buy a 06 Honda Pilot after work today. This choice actually feels right. I want to be able to fit both kids in there comfortably. I barely got them in the mazda last weekend, was NOT fun having two kids screaming two feet from my ear. Plus, the van is getting higher miles, would be nice to go places, NOT in a van, if you know what I mean. Oh well, we shall see. 58 pages, I think this is the first rational thought I’ve had.   ::)

4Runner interior isn't that bad considering its a Toyota, lol..  but I can't stand Toyota cloth, so it has to be leather..

There's a lot of cars even over $25k that don't have leather..

Nah, honestly we went to the dealer to look at a Mazda3 (pretty sure it had water damage, condensation in taillights and a puddle in the rear footwell...) ended up walkin around at the other dealers in the area and she liked it.  Went back the next day to test drive and ended up buyin it.  Its nice, not somethin I would want, but def nice.  And its got the full 10 yr/ 100k warranty which lets me worry less. :D

Put it in the headphone whores thread...


And the system isn't TOO bad, but I haven't used it much.  Its nice that it comes with XM for 3 months for free, but after that shes not renewing, they $16 a month for that shiz!  Stupid, but my dad said if you hold out and keep havin them call back, you can get it for dirt cheap.  I guess they are doing horribly so any money is better than no money.  And the car is nice cause it can broadcast music over bluetooth, so she can play Pandora on her iPhone and have it come thru the speakers (clean, no wires).

And if any of you do have XM, check out Jason Ellis on Faction, whenever I'm in my dads Rento I listen to it and it cracks me the hell up! :D

Post by: gargantula99 on September 29, 2011, 10:44:14 AM

I believe that was the original plan or atleast a V8 (which would have given the Ridgeline and RL V8 options), but they scratched it.  Then it was a twin turbo V6, now its a hybrid V6.  I'm startin to come to the realization that the NSX is just Honda Great White Unicorn, and it sucks to think that.  

Someone is sellin a '92 on Tristatetuners, 170k on the ticker and he wants $19k.  If I had 19k to play with, I would be on that like white on rice.  They are def on my hope to own one in this lifetime list.

Like the title says, find me car. I’m sick of looking and I’ll pay someone to do this, sort of. If I wind up buying the car you find me I’ll PayPal you $20 and I’ll give $20 more to ECM.
Requirements:
100 miles from zip 36602
Sedan
Up to $21k
Low miles (50k and under)
Everything else is fairly open. Of course I’m looking for a Honda but if you see something else pass it along too. If you have any further questions PM me or email me your findings – carpenter3jhc@gmail.com
I am fucking serious about this, so take it as such. Yes I’m a car whore, yes I’m trying to convert some of you into whores. Deal with it. I’m giving you monies!

I don't think so he's looking for help with something and willing to pay for it plus donate to the community. Please don't post in here unless you are attempting to help out. The car whore thread is what it is but, lets keep this one on topic.

Price seems decent for an 07 with 60k miles..  probably because its a non-navi equipped car.. that being said, for an 07, i would hope for less mileage..

I'm not a fan of tan interior..  that color combination would look a lot better if the interior was all black, imo..

it might just be the lighting in the picture, but from the front shot of the car, the gap on the left side of the hood looks bigger than the right side..


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

Here's my point.  This topic has permeated the whole forum.  We've got guys in the car whore thread that are posting links for you and you posting links for cars you're considering.  Then there's this thread, which is exactly the same thing, except you're offering money.  You do realize that you're the driving force in the car whore thread, right?

He's dreaming in a fantasy land beyond the Milky Way!  It's a 5 year old car that had an initial sticker price of ~$29,400.  Especially with that kind of mileage, I wouldn't pay a dime over $12k to $13k..  and that just seems high to me.. but i also owned the same car, variance of color, lol..

Not cheap actually.  That's about right for a 91 NA1..  at least, i expect NA1's to go anywhere from $17k to $20k..

Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: timot_one on November 04, 2011, 09:34:07 PM
I think the issue is that Jer is expecting a used car to be in the same condition of a new car.  It's time to realize that whatever used car you get, there will be faults.  You can either live with them or fix them.  I'd get the one with the bad clutch and replace the clutch.  To me, that would be worth the expense of a new clutch.

That S2K was pretty bad.  The shitty part is that you know that moron beat the shit out of it if the motor is dead.  Considering that you'd need a new motor or to rebuild that one, and you have to find OEM parts to make it look nice again, it's not worth it. 

I passed an 04 Cobra today that was for sale.  I would have stopped if it wasn't yellow.

Ford is the best choice for domestics right now.  It seems like they're the only one from the big 3 that realized that making a better product is how they're going to stay in business.  If I was going to get a domestic, it would be a Ford.  I still want an 04 Cobra.

Why? because of the 12k OCI, or because how he drove it?  If it's the OCI, I would be curious to see a UOA of the oil.. I wouldn't be surprised to see that it's ok..  Honestly, 3k, even 5k mile OCI's are overkill..  I still do it though, lol..

Post by: timot_one on November 13, 2011, 01:03:25 PM
It's not just the amount of power, it also has to do with the weight of the car to determine what's a quick/fun car.  Why do you think people are swapping stock k24's in EK hatches?  A 200 hp EK will still walk me because even though my Accord has more power, it's also a lot heavier.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: slipkord on November 14, 2011, 02:11:30 PM
I understand that Tim. He just threw me off my saying Kia lol

After going back and forth, I’m sick of it too, I think I’m going to try and find a 7th gen. Got a couple in mind, no 6MTs around sadly, so going to have to go back to a K24 auto. That should keep me happy for a little while at least. I’ve been wanting to boost something. Had a thought of buying a Fit and boosting it, on the small side but turbo kits start at $3k…evil thoughts indeed.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: timot_one on November 14, 2011, 07:50:58 PM
Jer, if you want my honest opinion about getting an Accord, get a K24 MT.  The best thing you can do is swap a TSX 6MT in it and it will be way more fun.  Fuck, if you get a MT K24 Accord and a 6MT, I'll do the fucking swap for you.

If you get a Fit, get the MT and get the Rotrex SC kit.  The AT Fit sucks.  Trust me, I drive one all the time and it sucks the life out of me.

Really appreciate the offer Tim. I’ve been scouring the web and haven’t found any 5MTs worth buying, even within 150 miles of here. A 6MT K24 would be awesome though.

There are a few MT Fits around here, they look small as hell though. I bet with the SC kit it would fly.

Post by: timot_one on November 15, 2011, 11:03:04 AM
Jer, the Fit is bigger inside than you would expect.  I'm still surprised at how much room it has.  I'm sure it would be a quick car if you built the motor.  You could even K swap it.

Sure, but I don't know what I'm doing with the J.  At least I have a half clue with the K series.

Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: slipkord on November 17, 2011, 08:20:59 AM
S2K still the first?

Well of course the S2k is first. So if you guys had a couple kids and were married what car would you buy? Just getting some perspective. Trust me, a 6MT is what I want but there are none around here so I’m left to get whatever else I can find, which isn’t much. Here’s my opinions on what each make has to offer. Yes, I’ve thought about this too much.

Acura – prices are way too high
Audi – Unless it’s an S4 I aint bitting
BMW – same as Acura
Ford – see GM
GM – NO
Honda – A LOT of 8th gens around here. Not many 7th gens, a lot of K24 autos (which is what I might go back with).
Infiniti – Same as Acura, prices are high, but there are a few 2007+ G35’s out there. I found one sweet G35S but the fucking paint around the steering wheel controls is peeling off (every fucking 2007+ G35 does this WTF, is this worth not buying it, I dunno?.)Also found a FX35 which I fucking love, we’ll see if that pans out.
Lexus – I can get my hands on an IS350 but the backseat is so damn small, is it worth the sacrifice to get the power?
Subaru – Feels like a GM product.
Toyota – Not a big fan
VW – Maybe a GTI but has to be a 4 door, which of course aint around here.

I didn’t name off all brands, just a few..back to fucking work.

Thoughts?

my thoughts...

audi- whats wrong with an A4 1.8t?
honda- gen7th gen 2.4  5mt. and do the swap like tim has offered to help with?
infiniti- if you find one thats awesome minus the paint thing ask for it to be fixed before you buy
lexus- if a s2000 is an option i imagine the seating in the back of this is better.
volvo- s60r ?

Call the better business bureau!  My friend did that.  They had an '07 Si listed at $17k,  he went in and they told him it was a misprint and the actual price was $2x,xxx he called them up and after 6 hours of arguin with the dealership drove the car off the lot for $17k   :D

Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: alpha on November 21, 2011, 11:43:16 PM
Discussion.  Pros and Cons.
2000-2001 AP1 had a plastic window softop.  maybe including 2002.. not sure when they started the glass rear window, it was either 2002 or 2003.

AP1
No traction control
9000 rpm redline
Faster steering ratio than base model AP2
Need rear driveshaft spacers when lowering
Lighter flywheel than AP2
Cable throttle
16" stock wheels
AP2 headlights are a direct swap, but AP2 taillights are not

2004-2005 AP2
8000 rpm 2.2L motor
Cable throttle still
Driveshaft spacers aren't a necessity but they could be (this applies for all AP2s)
17" wheels stock
Heavier flywheel (makes street driveability better)
Slower steering ratio than AP1
LED taillights (I think it's on all AP2s)

2006-2009 AP2
Introduction of Traction Control and Drive by Wire throttle
Electronic Cruise Control

2008-2009 CR
No softtop
Black Hardtop standard on all 4 colors
CR specific interior (seats, shift knob and shift boot, carbon kevlar trim, tonneau cover, steering wheel, door panels, radio door, floor mats, etc.)
CR specific wheels
CR aero
CR suspension
rear strut brace under tonneau cover
No spare tire
TPMS
Faster steering ratio than base AP2
reinforced trunk
CR specific exhaust
lighter than base AP2

There are die hard AP1 fans, but overall, the AP2 is a lot more refined and is regarded as a better car.  There are suspension differences, as well as color option differences throughout all the years.  I believe there is a color difference in the headlight lens between AP1 and AP2 as well.  AP2 and AP1 bumpers, front and rear, are also different.  Exhaust is different between AP1 and AP2.  AP1 is also higher from the factory.  There's also variations on audio packages available, but for the most part, its not great.  Although, AP2 is vastly better than AP1 in terms of audio.

The AP1 is a bit twitchier also.  AP1 or AP2 is an amazing car, but you still have to be careful driving it.

I'm sure I'm forgetting stuff, but that's the stuff I remember off the top of my head right now.

Wow Mark touche!  You really know your s2ks! :D

I had originally looked at a couple s2ks when I bought my 6-6 but my insurance company wanted a premium that was TWICE what the car payment would have been (I had some tickets and points) and I dont think it would be practical as a daily.

A friend of mine drove his cousin's AP1 this weekend and was GUSHING about it, which is weird cause hes a VW guy and is always talkin shit about my Hondas.  He said it was litterally probably the most fun car hes ever driven... fml.

So I've been doin a lot of thinkin about my next car and toyin with diff ideas: TL, STI, etc.  And I think what I'd really like to do is pick up an s2k and keep the 6-6 as a daily.  You can get an AP1 for around $10k (give or take a few grand).  Which would give me about the same payment I have now, maybe less.  But I still have 2 years left of payments on the Accord to think about it. lol

So thanks again Mark!

Hey Mark, what is your opinion about using the s2k as a daily driver? It seems like the general consensus is that it's not a good one. I was just curious as to why. I was thinking about how the s2k would be instead of getting the Accord that I have now. I drive in Orlando traffic, so I'm constantly hard braking and having to stay clear of reckless drivers.

It would be fun as shit to have an s2k, that's for sure.

Mark’s a pussy and never daily drove his S2k. Me on the other hand…  :D

It’s small, cramped, the ride is rough as hell, it creakes even over good pavement. It’s like driving a go cart every fucking day. It gets old quick. If the top is down and it’s cool out then it’s a different story. However, if it’s freezing out and the top is up then it sucks and it will depress you if you want to have the top down a lot. Or when it’s 100 degrees out, which it gets in Orlando, top down in that shit is no fun. I loved my S2k but DDing it sucked. It would be nice to stretch out in the Accord, and have an S2k for the warm sunny days.

My thoughts EXACTly. :D

Maybe after I get the S I'll trade my 6-6 coupe for a 6-6 sedan.  The majority of the parts should swap no problem, right?  Exhaust might need some adjusting tho.

uhh, what?

Hey Mark, what is your opinion about using the s2k as a daily driver? It seems like the general consensus is that it's not a good one. I was just curious as to why. I was thinking about how the s2k would be instead of getting the Accord that I have now. I drive in Orlando traffic, so I'm constantly hard braking and having to stay clear of reckless drivers.

It would be fun as shit to have an s2k, that's for sure.
I actually drove my s2k everyday for at least about a year, and prior to that, at least 2-3 times a week.  There was a period in time when it was my only car.  I traded in the Lexus for the 4Runner, and then I gave the 4Runner to my dad (although I still pay for it), so I don't really consider it mine.

I agree with Jer, it gets old..  It's fun as hell, hands down the best car I've ever driven (that includes the M3)..  By far, the best transmission in any car that I've ever personally driven.  It's small, yes, but it's also just about right.  It gives you just enough space to be comfortable, but no more.  No stretching out, just enough to be comfortable driving it.  If you fit..  there are things that you can do to fit better, such as lowering the seat.

It's RWD and its twitchy.  You really have to pay attention while you're driving.  You can get in trouble fast, especially in inclement weather.  It's a fairly raw driving experience.

At the same time, I'm a bit jaded.  I miss having it be stock, clear everything, and still fun to drive.  Not have to worry about being as careful.  

When I did daily drive it, it was already lowered and had mods.  In my opinion, the KW V3s are a lot smoother than the stock CR suspension, in terms of shock damping (even with the higher spring rates).  It being lowered is actually what got really annoying to me, not so much the small interior.  The interior is really well placed, everything is accessible to the driver, and I just have a love for the interior that none of my other cars have yet matched.  But when the car is low, and you have to worry about which route to take where, how to avoid certain dips, certain speed bumps, how to angle certain driveways, worry about three wheeling it and having to have someone sit on the trunk to get you up the driveway, change how you approach driveways with aggressive wheel fitment, etc.. that's when it really starts getting annoying.  It's a sacrifice of any lowered car, but the s2k gets reeeeeeeaaaaaaalllllllyyyyyyyy low.  There is a huge difference between lowered Accord and lowered S2000.

I'll have to disagree with Jer about the top up vs topdown thing.  I much prefer the look of the car with a hardtop, I think the softtop makes any convertible look cheap.  I'm not a fan of convertibles, and if Honda make the car as a coupe, I would have bought it instead.  

I will agree with the fact that the car creaks, and that gets annoying too.  When the softtop/hardtop latches get loose, it starts to rattle.  There are random creaks when you go up driveways after a while, so that gets annoying too. (this may not be as much of a problem with a completely stock car, but creaking noises are normal for any convertible) All little things that you appreciate having a quiet interior for.  But let's be honest, when you're driving the s2k, little things like that go out the window.

San Diego traffic is no joke, its not quite as bad as LA yet, but it's getting there and at times, it could be really bad.  San Diego also has some of the worst roads in the country, so knowing your routes in a lowered car are that much more crucial.  Driving around a lowered s2000 sometimes means taking the route that takes an extra 20 minutes, or parking in the lot across the street because the car can't make it up the driveway.  Sitting in an s2k in bumper to bumper traffic can get quite annoying.  The seat is comfortable, but not traffic comfortable (by traffic i mean bumper to bumper for like an hour type traffic).  I honestly get more annoyed by a manual transmission in traffic than I do sitting in the s2k.  I still have stock seats though, so its not as bad as sitting in a bucket seat during traffic.

Driving around a stock s2000 as a daily could get annoying, but driving around a modded s2000 as a daily just gets straight tiring.  One day, I just decided that I didn't want to deal with it anymore, and then started looking for a new daily, which led to buying the BMW.  Since then, my s2k got even lower (something I always wanted to do but didn't because I was daily driving it).  It's slammed, and as much as I love driving it, it sits because its honestly too low.  I'll drive it more when I am not too lazy to have a proper alignment done (it rubs a lot).  There's a few things I want to do to it as well, but I don't have the money to spend on it right now.  To give you an idea, I measured the front bumper to the ground, and its ~2.5 inches from the ground.  This is not the lowest part of the car, and I'm not quite sure how much the frame overhang is.  Without measuring, I'll venture to guess that the frame sits anywhere between 1.5in to 2in from the ground, with a rear diffuser fin being closer to the 1.5in figure..

That being said, it depends if you have any plans for the car.  If you keep it stock, I think you'll be ok with driving it around the city everyday.  If you lower it, you could still get away with it, unless you slam it.  Aggressive wheel fitment makes it even more annoying.  But it does look amazing!

In my opinion, its not a car that I would enjoy taking a long road trip with, especially with the lack of trunk space.  I have driven it on 2 to 3 hour trips, and that was ok.  Anything longer, I would be annoyed.

TL;DR: Drove daily for at least a year, stock s2k could be fine as a daily, longer trips could get annoying, lowered s2k gets tiring to drive everyday, creaks (nothing out of the ordinary for a convertible), small but comfortable if you fit, manual transmission is amazing

Was only joshin ya Mark.

I agree with everything you said, but I will say this, I love having the top down and I hated the soft top. Luckily mine wasn’t one of the years affected by the dreaded rip. If I still had one and I would invest in a hard top and just take it off when I really wanted to drive around topless.

Well they lowered the price on that FX another $500 yesterday, I was going to stop by, last day of the month, but decided against it. I’m on the fence as usual. It’s a really nice car. But I need some help. Is it worth paying a premium for this type of car. It literally has every option and I would be saving $7k off retail, I’m still not sold though.

Thanks guys. I wish I could say I bought it but my grandma actually bought it and surprised me with it. Alec, they say the interior is saddle brown but I would say it is more of a terra cotta. I love it as well. I think with the black floor mats it will wear well. I really couldn't be happier with it. Im getting about 15 mpg so I am def glad it's a V6 now haha.

Mike, yeah it has been a while. I was pretty slammed with school and everything else last semester. Hopefully, I'll get some more time now that I have finally established some study habits, ha.

Tim, I read Consumer Reports while I was test driving them and the 2012 was rated very well. Hopefully it will remain that way.

The paint is peeling off the steering wheel controls and the DS grab handle WTF. This is a common and known issue with G35s, cheap ass fucking material. I wonder if they would replace it all if I buy it, that’s the $1M question. They actually have to replace the whole wheel and probably the whole door panel, a lot of work (4-5hrs) and whos to say what the replace it with is any better. POS Nisfiniti!! Just wondering yall’s thoughts. I’ve fucking never seen a Honda or Acura’s interior peel like that, roof/hood paint on the other hand…Still eyeing the 08 TL in case this doesnt work out.  ::)


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: gargantula99 on December 27, 2011, 04:35:11 PM
my door handle is all scratched up but not peeling.  It's scratched from my wedding band.  No other peeling that I'm aware of.

Jer, these issues are part of buying a used car.   If you can't deal with them then i would suggest buying a new car.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: slipkord on December 27, 2011, 04:48:11 PM
I have OCD issues Nelson, I can't afford a new car, depending on what it is I guess.

Maybe I'll look at a certified Acura TSX or TL, those are typically cleaned up pretty well and mostly free of issues. I mean the G35 is spotless, other than the paint peeling. I just can't see myself looking at that flaw every single day.

Dude, Nelson is right.  You can't expect a used car to be perfect.  Either do one of two things, buy a new car that will be perfect, or lower your expectations.  You're just not being realistic about this Jer.

Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: gargantula99 on December 27, 2011, 06:11:38 PM
I mean, if the G35 is spotless except for those two things, see if they'll replace the handle the the covers on the steering wheel controls.  What's the most that it could be?  a couple of hundred bucks if you let the dealer do it?

Or if you know a body shop guy, I'm sure they'll give you a decent price.   The other thing to look at is, realistically, how long do you plan on keeping this car?  Two years tops?

I wasn't trying to sound like a douche when I said what I said above.  I realize it may have come out that way.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: slipkord on December 27, 2011, 06:30:57 PM
Nah man, u were spot on, I didnt take it the wrong way. I might lower my price, that way spending maybe $16k, I would expect flaws, rather than $23k


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: alpha on December 27, 2011, 07:31:44 PM
You may not keep it long, but having a better condition interior will help with resale.

I would negotiate them replacing the parts.  If they don't want to do it, tell them you would take it if they knock off an extra $500 in the price in order to replace the parts.  Then find the parts somewhere and replace it yourself.. a steering wheel and a door panel are easy enough..

Well I've decided to lower my price quite a bit, looking at a 07 TL 80k miles $15266 or a 07 TSX 69k miles $15999 with nav

Thoughts on either? Never purchased a higher mileage acura before


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: CrackerTeg on December 30, 2011, 09:40:13 AM
I bought wifey's RDX with about 73k for 18. So far, that thing has been great and I beat on it regularly. Frankly, since you already had a TSX and got rid of it shortly afterwards, go for the TL.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: slipkord on December 30, 2011, 10:00:20 AM
The TL is spotless, CBP/Blk no nav but its clean considering the miles, its at Acura so can work a deal maybe.

I like the RDXs alot hard to find em cheap though

Meh.  Hummers turned into soccer mom mobiles when they came out with the H3.  They just made them look bulky, but they're really small inside.  I've never liked how the FJ's looked either.  If it were me, I'd get an IH Scout.  Those things are built to last and aren't all that common.

Never mind, I just googled it and no.

There's a company called Icon and they sell hand built fj40's.  I would do that if I had and extra $100K lying around.

So, since my car is almost paid off, about ($1,500 short right now)  my wife and I are contemplating purchasing her a vehicle next year.  I was thinking about the new CR-V, but I'm not a fan of the spare tire being inside of the trunk.  My mom's 03 CR-V had the spare on the rear door and therefore giving us more interior space to use.  Any thoughts on another, smaller SUV / wagon, it has to be economical and AWD or 4WD.  Also, it needs to be under $30K.  The reason why I'm looking for that is because we like to go camping and what not.  When we load up my car with our gear, there is literally barely enough space for the two of us.

the trail editions start at $38K, $8K over my budget.  I'm looking at new instead of used because, like you, I'll never be happy with a used car.  If I see a scratch on it, that's all I'll see.  Besides, as much as I would love a 4Runner for myself, my wife will be the primary driver and it's probably too big for her. 

This will be her first car, so used might be the smartest way to go.  I have a year to figure that one out.

Are you looking for luxury of any kind?

RDX? They start at $33k MSRP, but towards the end of the year, you can get a pretty good deal on them.  Acura tends to have dealer holdbacks towards the end of the year, sometimes during.  and the RDX doesn't sell that well since Acura's biggest sellers are the TSX and the MDX.

used X3?  the new bodystyle though, 2011 and newer.. granted the new ones are pricey but since BMW is a European car, their resale value isn't that great.  you can probably pick up a couple year old one for a decent discount.

Speaking from experience, your wife and yourself will thoroughly enjoy the RDX. Its a great car and my wife likes that she sits higher than others on the road even if it isn't that much taller than our Accords. Mine is also AWD. Completely unnecessary in S. Fl but its a nice feature should we need it.

Touché.

Well, I like 4Runners.  It's body on frame, not unibody, so you sit on a truck frame.  If you like that, then its a great vehicle.

I had a 2004, my dad had a 2004, and now we have the 2010.  They are comfortable if you get leather interior.  Toyota cloth is terrible in my opinion.

The 4th gen 4Runner ran from 2003 until 2009.  Some folks reported sunroofs leaking, but if the model you are looking at doesn't have a sunroof then you shouldn't worry.  The V6 is an aluminum block, which I believe was the first time Toyota put an aluminum block in a truck engine (when it was new in 2003).  All of my 4Runners have been 4WD, so gas mileage was always expected to be low.  That being said, for a fairly heavy SUV, it was pretty good.  Given that the one you are looking at is 2WD, you should get a couple mpg more.

The one pictured also has the 17" wheel upgrade, which means it comes with 265/65/17 size tires.  A typical upgrade was to get 265/70/17 size tires for a little added height, but also because the 70 profile tires tended to be a bit cheaper.

The oil filter is on top also, so its really easy to change the oil.  I believe the engine is rated at 240hp/270tq, or something similar to those numbers.  It's a pretty good engine, fairly powerful, and has a rated 5000 lb. towing capacity (I believe the v8 had a 7000 lb. towing capacity).  It's for the most part fairly quick, but it can be a tad slow driving in the mountains.  Not sure if its a feature on the 2WD or not, but the 4Runner also has Downhill Assist Control.

I also don't recall Toyota giving you the option of leather interior on the SR5 model.  That may have been added aftermarket (which is fine, I had Comfort Soft Trim leather added to my 2004 when I bought it, and in my opinion, felt softer than the Toyota leather).

Any specific questions?

They seem pretty safe, but my recommendation would be to check out the IIHS ratings.  I was never involved in an accident with either 4th gen 4Runner, so I wouldn't know first hand how they hold up.

Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: slipkord on January 10, 2012, 03:46:58 PM
OK, here’s my thoughts guys.

An Accord would be the most reasonable choice, and I can get a certified I-4 auto for a good deal, but that would be my 4th auto Accord

I can get a 6MT with almost 70k miles, would be fun but hesitate to buy with those miles. And I’d have to sell my car first.

4runner is in the picture too, I don’t know these cars too much, but know they are reliable. It would be nice to haul the kid(s) around, go canoeing/fishing/camping etc.

I’m always going to want a fast car, always secretly searching for a Cobra/Mach 1/etc..

I have a lot of wants, very little needs. My wife wants me to just get something but she’s kinda partial to Mustangs. I’ve ripped the automotive space time continuum a new asshole and it’s paying me back by fucking with my head. I just need two cars, a 4runner and a cobra. Easy peasy.

Yup, same here.  They were supposed to bring back the Eclipse GSX too as a Turbo diesel with two hundred some hp and three hundred some tq.  But that was a few years ago so I guess it's not happening.

Can't believe No one has said anything but... what do you guys think of the 9th Gen coupe? I actually like it, a lot!  The concept is basically just a flared out 8th Gen but I def can't wait to see what the production version looks like.  I can almost guarantee the exhaust won't make it, but I could see something like the 4th Gen TL exhaust tips working their way in.

I actually think the 9th gen coupe concept is ugly.

I like it but, the actual car tends to move alot from the concept.
Honda is actually pretty good about keeping the production car close to the concept.  Considering there will be some changes to make the production car meet regulations, the production car shouldn't change that much from the concept.

It looks pretty good, but one word killed it for me though.  Hybrid.  I just don't like how they're trying to make performance cars hybrids.  
Actually, I don't mind that its a hybrid.  Honda is tending towards advancing technology, toning down some styling in order to focus on the technology.

I can't deny the technological innovation they came up with in the NSX.  The handling they have been able to achieve by ridding of the drivetrain in favor of electric motors controlling the tires is awesome.  It's an electric AWD system.

Honda is actually heading towards replacing the automatic transmission with a dual-clutch system as well.  The automatic transmission they will be using in the 2.0 4cyl engine of the ILX is going to be dual clutch.

They even went as far to implement the electric AWD system in an 8th gen Accord, and it has been stated that it handles extremely well, and I believe some magazines reported that it is on par with some supercars.  Also, if you look at the HSV-010 GT video of it on Nurburgring, you'll notice that it stays flat through the corners.  It is using the new electric SH-AWD system.  Now that is some handling characteristics that I can certainly appreciate.

I agree with Mark.  It's pretty bland.  I'm guessing that it's based off the Civic.
but it would probably sell.  it's not as aggressive, and it plays towards the masses.  in my opinion, it is bland.  but people like bland, they like cars and designs that they can get used to.  it's not a love it or hate it design as much as it is a "i can get used to this" design.

Haha we actually did a whole restoration on one of those trucks when I took my autobody course. The whole deal, body off frame, sanded down and painted frame and totally redid the whole body. I wish I had finished product pics but I only have progress pics. So much fiberglass...:p someone repaired the back portion of the cab before but they freaking BRAZED the back panel in. Warped everything to hell and just covered it in fiberglass we fixed it proper though ahaha.

Hell yeah!
Well the Coronet sold so it’s on to the truck. Seems kind of off to rebuild the motor and don’t get it running then say fuck it and sell it. I guess some projects get old. My immediate plans now are to just find something that is fixable to drive, then down the road get into really fixing it up. Putting in some new hardwood planks sounds like a good idea. Just to get it running right and sounding mean would be my #1 goal.

Not being a fan of old cars doesn't mean I don't respect the heritage.  I understand that the history and experience learned from old cars paved the way towards the technology we have today.  There are a few old cars that I like, but the ones that I would actually consider owning are really expensive.

Let's say someone were to spend $100,000 restoring a 1972 Camaro.  I would rather spend that money on a Corvette ZR1, Cayman R, M5, etc..

Looks like my previous options sold, so heres what I got now:

1950 F100 all original sandblasted and already primed $4k
1958 Chevy C10 350 stroker motor all new interior $3,500
1966 F100 long bed $1,500

Any of these would be bad ass, I like the idea of the 66, you don’t see many long beds, especially all fixed up. And it’s cheaper than the others, the difference would be a set of wheels/tires and bags.

I hope it's still for sale!

I'd take a '67 Chevelle SS any day of the week. I love that body style of Chevelle. I wasn't a huge fan of the '68 and up.

As with any car. Its hit or miss.  As you said mike, Some have minimal problems, some have door handles fall of.

It's not that much.  I drove a boosted STI putting 350hp to the wheels.  Whatever you do, don't pop the clutch and try to light up all four tires.  The owner doesn't like that for some weird reason.

Kinda redundant there Nelson.

As far as turbo cars that make a good amount of power, I have to agree with Mike.  As long as you keep the revs low and stay out of boost, they're pretty tame.  The only problem that I have with turbo cars is when you cross over from vacuum to boost, it can be fairly sudden and unexpected.  That's when it get's a little hard to handle.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: gargantula99 on February 09, 2012, 11:32:25 AM
Kinda redundant there Nelson.

Sorry, what I meant by boosted is that he was pumping, i think, 18psi out of the turbo, as opposed to what I recall being the stock 12psi.  There were other elements involved as well, like a bigger down pipe and exhaust and what not.  Again, my apologies.

The only problem that I have with turbo cars is when you cross over from vacuum to boost, it can be fairly sudden and unexpected.  That's when it get's a little hard to handle.

That's exactly what happened to me.  Being that I wasn't used to that and his clutch.

The Genesis sedan is a really nice, as Mike suggested.  To me, the G8 is meh.. but I'm not a fan of Pontiac, especially since GM stopped production on them.

What are your actual requirements in a car? What are your must haves vs nice to haves?  How much do you want to spend?


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: slipkord on February 15, 2012, 10:21:55 AM
No more than $26k
Must haves and like to haves are a very thin line. I would like to have it loaded out, although nowadays most cars are equipped with leather/roof/etc…I guess the only like to have would be Nav.

Honestly something like a 08 TL or 08 G35 would probably fit the bill, but paying over $20k and just getting a plain jane car seems like an dumb decision IMHO. I would like to have something big enough for the fam (4 doors). The rest is pretty open.

I can get an 07 TL S but its $22k and has 58k miles....rather pay more and get less miles

True. I am trying to find the perfect car, at least the perfect car for me. Trying to find a car within 100 mile radius down here is ridiculous. Plus, I don’t know what I want. Well, I want another S2k but that’s not happening. I found a nice 08 TL but it’s just a base auto. If I could find a low mileage TL-S 6MT I would buy it quick.

So, when you look at the list of features Nelson listed which is most important?

Performance
Space
Fuel Economy
Reliability

Put those in order of priority and be realistic about what you're getting.  In this circumstance, you can only pick 2.

Honestly Tim, an S2k is the only thing that would make me truly happy. Everytime I see one I can feel my heart breaking. All of the ones that are newer are overpriced at $20k.

This 01 isnt a bad deal at all:

What's wrong with it?

Why is it $11,000? Is it because it's 11years old? That's low mileage.

Shows a wreck...looks like the bumper is very slightly damaged on the pass side middle portion. Leather is a little worn, otherwise looks in good shape. Worth checking out for sure.

Why has the car been sold 4 times?
4 times?  It looks like the listing is gone, but I didn't read the listing to see how many owners have owned that car..

probably one of those s2000's that didn't stay long with the owner.. it's 11 years old.. if each owner kept it 2 to 3 years, that would explain having been sold that often.

72k miles for an 11 year old car is low, but for an s2k is about right.  There are some ap1's with even less mileage.  One of my buddies has a 2000 w/ 38k miles..

Imported from the UK, odd…

Other than it being yellow, this would be a cool second car. Something I can rip apart and beat on (or an S2k but their expensive to mod). I’ve been looking at older HB civics to mod, throw in a K engine. I need to be realistic here. I really don’t want to buy a $25k car. I would be content selling my car and buying maybe a 7th Accord and then this older Si. Done and Done. I think I need more Hondas in my life, srsly.

My bro wants a two seater...heres our text convo.

Him- U ever miss ur s2000? Scary to drive in traffic being soo small?
Me- yes! Its not that small
him- I looked at a 08 350z, and a Saturn sky redline and a solstice GXP. The are like the Honda so thought I would ask. I just want something fun and cheaper
Me- Saturn n Pontiac are POS, dont buy one. if you have to get something get an S2k or miata with a hardtop, they make a mazdaspeed turbo.
Him-The engines in the two models are great tho and the styling is awesome. They are gm's first direct injected engine. 2.0 with 260 hp and torque but with j ust a tune you can get a safe 300 hp and 350 torque at the wheels in a 3000 lb car. Pontiac made the g8 and they kick ass. Gm makes good cars. I test drove a GXP and it was fast just not use to something small like that. Mazda has too many issues with their turbos and I don't want a hatch
Me- I still disagree, all gm products are crap, if u get a sky I don't know u lol. How u gonna fit ur son in there?
Him- He's a big boy lol the front seat has a good view. I just like the look. Minus the gay ass wheels. The saturn interior looks better. Gas going to 4 dollars a gallon it would be nice to get 27 mph with the top down instead of 17. Plus they have an e85 tune that makes 60 more hp and I can run 100% e85 so th at's like 30 cents cheaper a gallon atleast. Idk I doubt I will get a small car but I'm def debating.....


WTF!!!!!!!!! Do u see the shit I have to put up with...i tried guys...i will flame him if he gets a Sky.

Post by: alpha on February 27, 2012, 01:13:49 AM
I'm looking for opinions, maybe you guys have ideas that I haven't thought of yet.

In my next car, I'm looking for it to fit the following criteria:

  • Performance
  • Somewhat practical, at least more practical than an S2000
  • Comfortable enough to daily
  • At least somewhat luxurious
  • Prefer a coupe, but would be OK with a sedan.  would prefer that it not be a 2 seater.  NO softtop convertibles!  Actually, I would prefer it not be a convertible at all, but I may consider a hardtop convertible depending on the car.

Essentially, I want a car that is fun to drive, somewhat practical, and I can drive everyday.  Ideas for a car that would fit the bill?

I would prefer that it be a late model car, nothing older than say 3 or 4 years old, if not new.  I think I have narrowed it down, but I want to hear ideas just to make sure I thought about most of the options before I decide to pursue my current target car.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: wtcii on February 27, 2012, 04:10:32 AM
Not sure how you feel about BMWs but a 335 or a M3 would fit the bill perfectly. Both are fun, luxurious, and comfortable enough for a DD. I have more experience with the 335 but from my personal interactions they are great cars. Much more reliable then their reputation would allow you to believe.

Bill, he has a BMW already and wants an M3.  Mark, stop mindfucking yourself and the the damn M3.  You know you want it.
Bill, Tim is correct.  I already have an e90 335i, but what I was not mentioning above was that I have narrowed myself down to an e92 M3.

Tim, I mostly wanted some other ideas, just to make sure there wasn't a car that I missed before coming up with my short list and narrowing it down to one car from there.

IS-F..... CTS-V
I thought about the IS-F, but I don't know if I could pick IS-F over M3.  As for the CTS-V, I don't know if I could get myself to purchase a GM product, especially since they took bailout money that is funded by the taxpayers.  It's a shame too, I would have considered the Z06, if I could ever get past how bland the interior is.

And that goes to show you how out of the loop I am haha.
School is priority, so I understand why you're out of the loop.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

Only others that come to mind are the RS4, and C63 AMG... Think your mind is set on that M3 though.
I'm going to take a look at the C63 AMG, probably test drive it if I get a chance this weekend.  It's a traditional automatic with a torque converter, but I'm going to give it a chance to see how the handling compares.  Thus far, every Mercedes that I've driven doesn't compare to BMW in terms of steering feel and suspension feedback; I'm sure the C63 AMG handles really well, so I am going to give it a chance.  It is faster than an M3, but I honestly don't plan on tracking my next car, so all out speed isn't that important to me.  I'll be happy with "fast enough."

I thought about the S5 and the S4, and I love Audi interior; but Audi does claim that burning about a quart of oil every 3k miles is normal, wtf?  Now the RS4, I didn't even think about that, might have to drop by an Audi dealership.

Yea i seen it on car and driver mag they say it part of there skyactiv technology to remain using gas engines and get more mileage out of them , there one of the companies who will not be picking up hybrid versions. i think is a good idea if something like that would come to honda from factory i could see the builds already lol

So I'm planning to take a look at the Shelby GT500 and the Boss 302.  There is a 2011 GT500 at a local dealer, its new, and I wouldn't be surprised if its been sitting there a while and the dealer would be willing to give a pretty good deal on it.  They have a few Boss 302's also.

There's also the 2013 GT500 that will have 650hp..

I know you like the new car feel but, if your considering a Stang I would probably look for a lower mileage 2003 - 2004 Cobra. They came factory SC'd, and if you put some cash into them you can easily make more than 650 HP. Could probably get a pristine car with more power for half the money.

The reason I prefer new is because of warranty, but I am willing to look at low mileage CPO cars that are clean.

I would like a car that wasn't modded; and if it was, I would prefer no engine mods.

To be honest, I'm kindof getting over this whole modding the car thing.  A few cosmetic things, like new wheels, front lip, side skirts, etc. but that's it.  I would like a car that performs well out of the box, and one that I would hopefully not fall down the same path of modding suspension, engine, etc.

At least, that's my goal for my next car; and one I hope I can stick to.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

Well, I got the Jeep cleaned up for the first time since I got it in December. It only has 900 miles on it. For future reference, it's great. Anyone looking for a somewhat rugged SUV, this is a great option. I couldn't be happier with it. Other than the gas mileage. I'm getting 14-15 in the city and 17 on the hwy.

Bill I've been looking into the new grand Cherokee. The danger ranger is working its ass off to keep up with me but it's becoming a pain in the ass to load my four wheeler in and out of it. I have new wheels and tires on the atv so I have to drive over the fenderwells to load and unload. I've racked up the miles on it. 12.5k and climbing. I broke down and got a credit card so I can go buy a new trailer. Which kinda defeats the purpose of me having a truck.

Oh and Jeremy,  My recommendation for you is a C5 Z06... Bang for the buck, best car. granted its a two seater, but it has factory mods, lighter body, better suspension, and a Bose Sound system that even Tim would enjoy ;) haha.

Thanks guys!  I actually spent the good part of the afternoon performing a new car prep on the MDX; at least, I gave it an interior detail and washed it.  I plan to do an exterior detail on it next weekend, providing the weather forecast changes since they are expecting it to rain.

I'm thinking either FJ Cruiser or STI.  I know.  Two complete opposite ends of the spectrum, but that's what I'm thinking for myself at the moment.
 :(

What are your pros and cons for both?  Are you leaning towards one over the other?


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: gargantula99 on March 26, 2012, 07:03:50 PM
Pros -

They're both either awd or 4x4

STI 305 HP runs on 93 octane
FJ 260 HP runs on 87 octane
Both are reliable enough to last me 10 years.
-in my opinion they're both fun in their own way.  I've driven both of them.
- they both have good stopping power which blows in my Honda.  It's been horrible since day 1.
- both have good solid suspensions.
- Both come in manual transmissions.

Cons -

STI - Not as spacious as I would like it to be.  Interior trunk space and space behind front seats (wagon).

FJ - bad gas mileage especially now when the cost of gas is sky high.

FJ - spacious but access to back seat is annoying.

- both are in the $32k - $34k range.

Side note: jer in the time that it's taken me to wreck the same car twice, you still haven't found your unicorn.  I thought that was funny.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

So I believe I will be in the market for a new truck soon. The ranger is becoming problematic. I am considering a used gmc Sierra 1500 Denali you know, loaded out like a boss. Or a 2008-10 f250 with the 6.4 power stroke. With the power-stroke I can buy exhaust and intake and tuner thru my buddy who runs a shop at his cost and he will tune it for me for free and I can get 24 mpg out of it.

Post by: Rushzer0 on April 11, 2012, 02:36:10 PM
We use Tacomas for our work trucks. So I can list off a couple things that tend to go wrong with them.  The leaf springs are pretty crappy, we don't even put alot of weight in them id say 700lbs max and we go through a set every year on both trucks. We had to replace the steering stabilizer(?) (the little u joint that connects the column to the steering box) in both trucks (and my friends Tacoma). Also the reverse light socket had to be replaced on one truck twice, due to moisture somehow getting in and corroding the contacts. Other then that they are pretty solid. Hardly any front-end work or bearings replaced.

Buy an F150 and beef up the suspension... Raptor = Overpriced, and over rated. Jer.... If you put a trailer hitch on a Cobra we will have a fist fight.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: exelr8 on April 11, 2012, 04:38:58 PM

I don't know. Jer does have that spider monkey hopped up on mountain dew demeanor.

If I were to get a cobra id just go ahead and get a lightning. Easier to find better priced and not very expensive to mod. Also considered a new dodge ram1500 express. The express is basically their performance minded truck. It's a lower priced truck yet comes with a 5.7 hemi. Plus it has that fuel saver thing dodge has where it shuts down two then four cylinders to aide fuel Econ


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: status on April 13, 2012, 09:50:02 AM
I imagine even on gas saver mileage still sucks and you'd have to drive slower then grandma to keep it in saver mode.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

There is an AE86 Trueno GT-Apex for sale here locally, in really, really good shape for $5000. I would love to have it...I got to drive one once (actually it was a Levin) but on one of the cruises the guy let me drive it up and back down one of the mountains...so much fun. LoL! I would probably just get it painted to look like the "Fujiwara Tofu Shop" 86 from Initial D though :D

Post by: timot_one on April 19, 2012, 01:15:52 PM
Getting good gas mileage is all about how you drive. You can still get good gas mileage if you drive economically. That just takes the joy out of driving a quick car though.

Austin, you should get the 86. I've always wanted one as a "fun" car to drive around.

Country- The new focus/foci are fairly attractive aesthetically and financially.  The power and features aren't that bad either.  If you're into that "stance" movement, they can be modified to look fairly good, IMO.

They lowered the price of the CBR250r and Honda has the same awesome financing incentives I got on the Four wheeler. So Tuesday I am probably gonna go work on trading in the Four wheeler.

Don't go new, pick up a nice used 600 for $3k. Ur too big for a 250. I'm not being mean, it would be like riding a 80cc dirt bike,


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: exelr8 on April 26, 2012, 05:16:00 PM
I've ridden the 250. It does just fine. I can't buy a used one because banks won't finance used crotch rockets. Plus the 250 will hold its value exceptionally well. Plus I have to get rid of the four wheeler. And I can come out well trading it in

From these two, I would go with the TL.

Aesthetically, I like the TL more.  I just think it looks better. 

The Maxima has more hp/tq but unless it has an LSD, it'll also have more torque steer.  The TL doesn't have an LSD except for the TL-S.  This is a moot point if the Maxima doesn't have one either.

Honestly, I wouldn't worry too much about an auto trans in a 2008.  You should be fine.  Now if you said, 2003-2004, that would be a different story.

I am also not a fan of CVT transmissions, so I wouldn't care for the Maxima in that respect.  If auto is boring, then CVT is on the, "I would rather sit in the backseat drinking coffee and reading a newspaper.", level of boring.

Acura's NAV system is one of the leaders in the car industry; at least in terms of accuracy.

The TL also has better resale value.  For the amount of time you'll probably keep the TL, you'll have a better chance of losing less money or breaking even with the TL than the Maxima.

Fun to drive but, feel kind of small.

I have this issue in my friends STI.. they are a ton of fun, but realistically, they're cramped (and I'm a short guy 5'8'' 185lbs).  and four doors are only useful with that car if you're an infant sitting in the back seat. leg room is non-existent.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

^This. I feel that's the case with any generation of the Impreza.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: accordguy04 on June 28, 2012, 10:12:34 PM
Idk... Im seriously considering getting one next, after the Accord is paid off.  Trading it in of course.  I have to drive it though, I drove my buddys Impreza wagon and didnt mind the size.  But I found a couple not to far from me, '08 STIs with 40k on the clock for around $22k.  But wouldnt be for at least a year-year and a half, so I didnt wanna tease myself with it. Lol

I still love my Accord, idk Im just startin to get the bug for something new.  It seems like every month its a new issue that I need to resolve with the Accord.  Right now the front runners are an '08+ STI hatch and an S2k.  The thinking on the S2k is, better get it now before I knock up my GF and need something kid friendly.

STI would be nice and fast with a couple bolt ons, and the S2k from what ive heard is just about one of the funnest cars to drive out there.  But ive had two friends buy AP1s with bent valves... Which kind of has me worried. 

But its a while away, so well see what happens. :)

Honestly I would leave it if it works maybe add a cooler. But, when it fails just get a new one. Mazda speed 3 seems okay. A kid I know has one and beats the shit out of it, and it still runs but, it's also still pretty new. The problem with a used one is that it's probably taken a beating.

Post by: slipkord on July 02, 2012, 08:30:55 AM
All mazda turbos have issues, oil leakes pass the turbo thru the exhaust. I think their mean cars, they say there are fixes, like heavier oil


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

Fixes the issues at the turbo but, probably has long term effects on the oil pump.

My friend owns a Mazda Speed 3. Has about 50,000km on it and the turbo smokes like a bastard. Oil leaks out and burns off. Like it was said earlier, they are notorious for it.

Don't know about newer 4Runners but I had a '00 4Runner SR5 V6 and it was a beast... put it through all kinds of hell, including off-roading and it never quit or even gave me any troubles. If it didn't get totalled 4 years ago I would still be driving it.

Shit... Fml.  Oh well I dont have a wife. ;)

No I mean I do love my Accord but its been almost 5 years and im startin to get the itch, shes almost paid off.  So im thinkin in the spring ill put up a FS thread and start lookin.  Ive been limboin between an 08 STI hatch and an AP2.  The STI will cost more, but has longer stayin power,  I.E. adaptable, if I do get married and my wife gets preggo.  The AP2 would be cheaper, but not very practical.  The thing about the AP2 that im thinkin is, if im gonna do it, I gotta do it now, before my life spins out of control, in a good way.  

In either case, im only gonna pull the trigger if I can find the one that I want, at the price(monthly pmt) that I want.  Because while I do want a new car, I am still tryin to move out of mom and dads house.  Which is possible, im just waiting on GF to find a job up here, but shes havin no luck.


Or... I could just pay off the Accord and buy Theins CT kit... Haha I wish, dont have the bread for that kinda purchase. :(  But it would be titties.

Post by: gargantula99 on August 01, 2012, 07:44:28 AM
New wranglers are crazy over priced. If I were to go with a wrangler, I'd do the 4-door soft top. Hard tops are a giant pain in the ass to take off the rear portion on your own.

Idk, just not into the 4 doors, I mean I understand what theyre goin for, I just dont like em.  And yeah I saw the new ones for like 25k and was like... Da fuck? Lol

I have a Suzuki Samurai at my brothers house.  When i used to have it here in NYC somebody slashed my rear window on the top.  It probably took more effort to slash the top than it did to undo the snaps. Like WTF?!? And they didn't take anything bc I never left anything for somebody to take.

I've been thinking about my next project.  I'm unsure if I want to get a decent daily driver/road trip car or if I want to get another project car.  If I get a daily/road trip car I'm interested in an 08 RL or a 1st Gen Pilot or MDX.  If I get a project car, I'm debating between a K Swapped Honda or a domestic RWD V8.  The Hondas I'd want are either an EK, EM1, or DC2.  I'm not sure what domestic I would get, but I'd probably want a 2nd or 3rd gen Camaro or something completely obscure that could be a total sleeper.

Yeah and every car guy would be hating you for having it, including this guy.

On another note, I spotted a B13 Sentra the other day for sale for 500. Not a bad winter beater but knowing me, I'll want to restore/ mod it. Could be a bad thing.

Grand Nationals are still around, but you guys should be jealous if I got my hands on a GNX.  A friend of the family has a Grand National.  I think the next time I see him, I'm gonna let him know that I'm interested in taking it off his hands when he's ready to sell it.

That Grand National is a bit steep for another project car.  I've already sunk way too much money into the Accord already, and I still have a few more very expensive upgrades coming up over the winter.  If I could find a GN for around $5-7k, that would be more in my price range for a project.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Mike on August 12, 2012, 12:08:38 AM
GN in that range would probably be in rough shape but, I guess if your looking for a project it works.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: timot_one on August 12, 2012, 12:14:38 AM
Yeah.  That's why I'd get it as a project car.  I'd probably keep it "looking" rough and only build the motor and suspension.

A truck would probably be even worse because I'd get into off roading.  I'd want to go crazy with that too.  I'm just poking around for something to do next though.

That'd be awesome. There's a dude on a forum I visit that built a 99 or 00 Sonoma (can't remember the year) that swapped in an RB25DET and tranny along with a Z32 IRS. Still uses the truck for what its meant plus rips it when he isn't hauling shit. Cool thing is, he made all the mods bolt on and can revert to stock if he wanted to. The thing I don't like about the truck is he took it too far with stupid taillight mods and air suspension. That's the kind of project I'd like to do minus the ridiculous body mods. If you're curious, its called the Skynoma.

I've been looking at '55 Chevy 150's, '68 Camaros, and '70-73' Camaros.  Probably not gonna happen right now, but I was just poking around and looking at prices.

So I decided to get in on this whoring..lol for the longest time there have been two cars that I want to get my hands on and build/mod.

#1 - 2000 Integra Type-R (DC2)
#2 - '69 Chevy Camaro with an L88 427 from the '67 Vette. <--- I know this is a pipe dream... but what a dream! lol

haha I really do want to get a 69 camaro the problem is finding that 427 big-block.. not the most common engine around. Of course there is always the crate option, but that's not the same.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

Your right its not the same it's more powerful!


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Fanitron on August 15, 2012, 08:14:22 PM
I'm not really interested in the power per-se... it's more to be able to say that I put an L88 inside a Camaro. I love the body of the Camaro but everyone knows that the 427 was Chevy's nastiest street engine of that era. Ever hear a '67 Sting ray rolling? sooooooo good. :D

So since I see a lot of you talking about getting s2k's, I have something for you guys.

My friend(guy that repainted my front end) is selling his s2000 with a 2jz swap. I'll upload pics of the car later.

Selling for $40k with hardtop and other accessories, $35k firm with no hardtop and no other accessories.

Currently has a fully built cage, new seats, carbon fiber fenders and front bumper. Making 600whp, also with 50/50 meth.

Step it up boys!

Nowhere near 2jz fun lmao. If you want an s2000, youre going to want to build it so why not buy one with a unique build making 600whp and still improvement for more? Also with a puney soft top with how the s2000 comes? Lol

And yes Mike, I will upload it.

because no matter how many mods are on a car, it doesn't appreciate the value of the car.

that being said, some people will pay more for a car with certain mods on it.  BUT, in the s2k world, those mods have to be authentic.

Selling for $40k with hardtop and other accessories, $35k firm with no hardtop and no other accessories.

Currently has a fully built cage, new seats, carbon fiber fenders and front bumper. Making 600whp, also with 50/50 meth.
 Who built the cage?  Brand of the seats?  Brand of the fenders?  Brand of the front bumper?

The reason I ask is simply this: a brand new OEM front bumper will not add value to the car.  a brand new authentic aftermarket bumper may, but a replica aftermarket bumper will not; i.e. ASM front bumper may add a couple hundred or so, but a Shine front bumper won't add value.

oh, and not all s2000's come with a soft top.. ;)

plus, $40k for an s2000 is ridiculous, no matter the cost of mods put into the car.  even more ridiculous if it is an AP1.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Arielit0oo on August 16, 2012, 06:08:00 PM
Yeah I'll get you all that information later, it's not my car that I'm selling. It's not a half ass build at all, the car has been built properly. At the end of the day, theres probably like 1 or 2 other 2jz s2ks out there built properly amd I only am letting you guys know since you want an s2000, so why not buy one that blow the doors off of almost any car and be a reliable daily?

You're going to pay $20k and change for a bone stock s2000 and still mod it so why not buy something you don't see at all? and arguably the best swap in an s2000? :flip:


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: timot_one on August 17, 2012, 02:21:52 AM
I doubt anyone would pay that much for a bone stock S2000.  My buddy got an AP1 with an AP2 front end, JDM headlights (yes actual JDM), HKS Hi Power exhaust, CT SC with upgraded intercooler and blow off valve, tuned to 309 whp.  He paid under $15k for it.  :flip:


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

Nope.. Typically, it won't go that high unless it is a 2008 or newer; or its either a low mileage 2007 or a GPW low mileage 2006.  At least, that is for a stock car.  It might fetch a little bit of extra money for mods; but like I previously stated, it really does depend on which mods and authenticity.

S2000 prices will vary upon region and season (because it is a RWD convertible).  If anyone is paying anywhere near $20k for a stock AP1, they are getting ripped off.

My commute is 70 miles a day, so I would like something with good mileage but typically that means slow and boring. I'm wanting a sedan or hatchback, so my thoughts are
Fusion sport
Maxima
Accord
Mazda6
Altima
WRX

All of these are 2010+, wanting a warranty as well. Thoughts? Pros/Cons?  I'm sick of fucking around and I'm ready to buy, just need some help, cuz I have no clue what I want, those cars listed are just ideas, feel free to add to this list. Wanting to stay around $20k, but can go to $25k for the right car.

Most dealerships keep "lists" of people who want certain used cars...the trade comes in and they call the next name on the list...so most people never see these cars, maybe get your name on some of these :) ...some places do a locate for a fee and will transfer the car from elsewhere...

Jer, don't forget you can also fly to an area that may have the car you want, pick it up and drive it back home.  I bet there are some 5MT's out here in OH that I can go look at for you.

By the way, shorten the list to 2 or 3 cars, don't add to it.  Test drive those cars and get what you want.  Stop mind fucking yourself.  It's literally been years that you've been at this.  Shit or get off the pot.

Maybe you're just not meant to have that car, or maybe there's something out there that's better for you.  Sometimes when things don't turn out the way we want them to, it's because there's something else even better that we never even imagined.  Trust me, I know this because it's happened to me plenty.

Elaborate. I think I've hit that "getting old" stage and realized it so the Legacy looks to fill that niche for me. Plus, I'm sure I can get some kid around here to give me 9k for my car as she sits.

As am I. I found one local that they want $12,900 for it. I still owe about 6k on my car so I can sell it to some kid around here as is for maybe 8. My payments for the Legacy would be low as shit compared to what I'm paying on the loan for my current car plus it'll blow the doors off my car and many others on the road. I was just on a legacy forum and looked at a few of the modded ones and I fell in love. Now I just need to convince wifey of my plan, sell my car and get into the new one.

So my work is auctioning off a '02 Ford Explorer with 170k miles with a starting bid of $750.  I've been told no one has bid on it yet so I can probably get it for the starting bid price.  I'd have to pay about $600 to get it transported here from Dallas, $50 to register it, and another $50 to get it inspected.  So it would cost me about $1,500 and it has a KBB value of $3,000.  That is assuming it passes inspection. 

Now I don't really have the money to buy it, BUT we get our bonuses at work in the next couple of weeks which should be enough to cover most it.  Also, I figure even if I don't like it, I can always turn around and sell it and probably make a few hundred bucks. 

Should I put a bid on it or no?

I looked into that first.  It would be about $150 for a 1 way plane ticket and then a 1,500 mile trip home.  With 15 mpg average, we are talking about roughly $350 in gas to get it home.  I think I'd rather spend the extra $100 and just get it transported.

This is my main concern.  Also, I'm worried it might not pass inspection so I'd have to sink a bunch on money into it just to be able to register it.

Sounds like it's a pass on the exploder.  Not really a practical option if you don't know exactly what you're getting into.  For the money you may make on it from flipping it, you'll probably have a bunch of headaches.

Actually, I believe that was Ford finding a scapegoat for their chassis instability and lack of proper design than it was a fault of the tires.  A tire blowout or thread separation should not cause an SUV or truck to roll over; granted that part of it is how the driver recovers the vehicle.  At the point, I still think that the vehicle design of the Explorer did not lend much of a chance to the driver for a proper recovery.

The problem also existed with tires from other manufacturers; it was just that the majority of the cases happened with OEM tire fitment.  At the same token, Ford recommended a tire pressure that was outside the bounds of the range of safe pressure for those particular tires.

Media also added their spin to it; just like the media spun the Lexus/Toyota stuck accelerator issues.

Just swung by the local Honda dealership on the way to the GFs parents house and checked out the new 2013 sedan... DAYUM!  They did such a nice job on the redesign.  I think they are a tad over priced... but still very nice.  I looked at a EX-L I-4 Auto and the sticker said $28k...  Talked to the guy about em a bit, they ALL come with an 8 inch color screen on the dash, just like the Navi on the 8th Gens, but only the Touring has the Navi (IIRC).  They didn't have any coupes in stock, he said they were getting em in Oct 15th and that they ordered 5 with the aero kit.  Im pretty excited,  I may have to throw on a nice shirt and go back on Oct 15th and see if he'll let me drive a 6-6 coupe. :D

I saw a 9th Gen sedan out here since I live down the street from a huge warehouse and the training facility for all the techs in the country (so I've been told).  I'll admit that I really like the way it looks from what I've seen so far.  Here's what I've found out about them though.  All MT's are 6 speeds now.  All AT's are CVT.  The 4 cylinders have K24W1 stamped on the block, but it's in backwards like the B/D/H etc.  The header is now on the front of the motor and the intake is on the back.  The main difference is that the tranny is still on the driver's side of the car.  I haven't got any info about the V6 though.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: cna on September 22, 2012, 12:22:25 AM
The v6 comes with that variable cylinder options so gas saver runs on 3 which is pretty neat and still has power when you need it ,I think the interior is what sold me on one

Ok, all bullshitting aside. Give me your thoughts here

Set a goal for myself, keep it under $20k. Get a 4 door, somewhat sporty demeanor.
09 Maxima SV
09 Genesis 3.8
09 Accord EXL V6 Navi certified

For roughly the same price I can get a 09 TSX, but its slower. Would like an RL but its over my limit.

cons for the accord, auto, kind of ugly
Cons for genesis, first yr production gremlins, fat
Cons for max, firt yr gremlins, premium fuel

Pros accord, certified, nav, honda reliability
Pros genesis, solid powertrain, big, supposed to be reliable
Pros max, small, agile, styling, powertrain

Only to list a few, typing on my phone sucks

I drive my girlfriends '10 Altima all the time and I actually like the CVT.  It doesn't bother me one bit.  I like the nice smooth ride.  I've never driven a maxima though. 

Honestly, I would take the Maxima or Genesis over a '09 Accord any day.  My company has a '09 Accord at the office and I hate driving it.

I bet dealers in Jer's area have a picture of him with a note underneath that states "this man will haggle and test drive but not buy a car!"

Like a wanted poster, but the opposite.

That's not odd that he said no.  This would just spread to other threads. At least it's contained in here.

Oh and nobody ever helped me stalk my old car.....what's up with that?

Just went online and priced it out with the options I want.  Probably can't afford one, but one can dream. $50K is a lot of cake.

That's part of the issue right there. You don't stick to one choice.

There's a lot of fat to be trimmed out of my choices.  Like does my wife really need the 325 HP/ 354 lb ft of torque in a station wagon.  No.  That'll save me $1,500.  Do we need navigation, nope, but it's nice.  

The list goes on and on.

They had an XC60 Polestar in Papa Smurf blue.  That was nice too.

That's a cool idea.  I just don't think its worth the cost, but it should be fun to see his progress.

One thing I absolutely love about the s2000 is the weight distribution.  I'm interested to see if he can keep that with this project.

Dark colors always show scratches.  It doesn't negate the fact that you're looking for a new used car at a dealership that is below $20k. They don't exist Jer.  You could maybe find it at a private seller.  Up the ante a little and you'll be able to find better cars.

Well. I've came to my senses. Going full circle and plan on getting another Accord. At least I've made up my mind and focused on one model. Actually have one lined up to go check out. Its certified so it should be good to go. Its a no frills auto 4 banger,.but EXL with nav. I can at least do wheels and suspension, make it look pretty, even if its slow. Yes it won't make me happy but nothing will. At least I'll be in an Accord.

Who knows anything about the 2nd gen RL? Looking at purchasing an 06 with 77k miles for cheap. Before I posted on AZ, figured I would ask here. Already test drove and really enjoyed it, just ding research now. Assuming like with any car, if you keep the maintenance up it will last forever.

I don't know anything about the RL's.

Since everything I seem to find is about $20k out if my budget. I decided I'm going to look into getting a certified pre-owned MDX. I can find a 2010 with 30k miles for about $30K.

I don't mind the manual. What I meant was, I just did an 11 hour trip between my mom's house and ours because my wife doesn't drive stick, I'm not doing that again.  If I don't own something else, I'm going to rent a car next time.

At this rate, you'll never buy a damn car. You're not going to lease so the annual mileage shouldn't concern you that much. If you're worried about killing whatever car you're not going to buy, pick up a $500 pile of crap that you can run into the ground. Once it dies, start over.

I think I'm just gonna keep the Accord, run it into the ground and find a beat S2k for $10k. :)

Big mistake. Those things are horrible. My father had one and it was a cramped, underpowered POS. It only looks big and bulky on the outside, but there isn't any more room in it than a Jeep Grand Cherokee. The straight 5 motor from the Chevy Colorado is junk too. IJS

This thread really isn't about car whores, it's about what we would like to buy.


 :D, that said,  :D I will be purchasing a car in 2015.  That is when my 1 point will be removed from my DMV record and my insurance will drop so I could afford to insure what ever I buy and gives me time to save up for a nice large down payment if not the entire thing.

I am debating between several cars. So maybe you guys could give me some insight on what to choose or introduce me to cars to take into consideration. Mainly want I would like to own is a Weekend warrior I could drive to the track something that is low & wide with style and function.

Acura NSX -  currently my top choice, I would love to get a 97-01 with the 3.2 motor, 6-speed & Targa Top, but I really don’t want to spend 40k, so I will mostly likely end up getting a 91 to start off.

Audi S5 - 2010 I know this car is not really intended for track racing and I wont tack it if I do buy it, I just don’t see much of these on the road where I am from but when I do I just get a chubby,  :P  So I have to add it to consideration.

Porches 911 – I know this car will cost me a leg and arm maybe left nut also but I am sure I will be happy with what ever year I get. I saw this video on vimeo and now I want one. 

Dodge Viper – Have not looked into this car much with being reliable or how it handles but I am sure the V-12 would be a lot of fun to work with.

1970ish Datsun 240z – I had one for a year but I sold when I bought my home for extra cash, so I never had enough time to mess too much with the motor, suspension, ect… But I did enjoy driving that car around, it was a lot of fun.

I know this is big write up in the middle of a large thread, but I am bored at work and I want to raise my Rep..  :D

The thing that would concern me is GM going cheap on the build quality.  It may be quick and have a ton of power, but if it falls apart in a year, then...

Given some initial speculation on its price point, this is a valid concern..  I don't care how much power it has if there is plastic everywhere and it rattles more than a rattlesnake afraid for its life.

Yeah, I figured it might have been fake.

I wish I could have done that when I test drove an 08 TL-S... I really wish I could have gotten that car. The only downside was the slushbox, which I'm pretty sure has the same issues as the Accord v6. Oh well. My new dream car is going to be whatever the newest model TL SH-AWD is when I make enough money to afford one, or the NSX whenever they release that. In an ideal world, I would have the TL as the daily driver, and the NSX as the weekend driver. A man can dream, can't he?

Post by: alpha on March 14, 2013, 02:31:14 PM

I never understood why people dress up to go to a car dealership.  I wear whatever I feel comfortable in, no sense in trying to impress a salesman.  If they don't treat you well, then go to a different dealership. 
My cousin said if you take your moms e46 convertible they'll let you test drive anything. Lol
Unfortunately, I find this to be true.  The car you drive up in can change how quickly a salesman approaches you.  But it also hurts negotiating power, as the more expensive the car you show up in, the more they think that you would be willing to pay and the harder it can be to negotiate.

When i worked at Chevy they wouldn't let you test drive a corvette without giving a deposit..
I also hate how dealerships restrict test drives, especially for production cars.  At a minimum, they should have a demo car that they use for test drives.  But when dealerships restrict test drives on cars like the Evo, that shit is just straight stupid.

I had a dealership tell me that I could not test drive a used IS-F.  Really?!?  It's a production car, not hand built, and nothing special.  Plus its used.

I would never put a deposit down to test drive a car.  I'll go find a different dealership that would let me test drive one without it.

How much of an upgrade do you guys think a TSX 6MT would be compared to an Accord i4 5AT in terms of performance? I've been toying around with the idea of trading for a TSX after college if I ever land a big job. Lol. My main goal is a TL SH-AWD, but that will take a lot longer to accomplish.

Like I said before, a man can dream. :P


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: gargantula99 on March 20, 2013, 05:18:48 PM
I'd keep the accord to save up more money for the TL.

I've never driven a TSX before but I have driven a k24 accord sedan and j30 accord sedan, obviously. The difference was night and day for me.

The stock 2.4i's are slow as dog shit. He would want a T5 or T6 at a minimum and that will run you over the $25k mark, unless it's a C30.  I think that's too small for his tastes.

I say get an IS or a Toybaru. The scion is definitely in your price range and it's new.

true true 2011 Ford Mustang V6 and the Chevy Camaro ls are both shy under 25k now adays good bang for the buck. yeah with volvos the T series engines are the ones i like i think there the sleeper underdogs when it comes to power . Scion has alot of support so for the price am sure its a steal depening which model you go for

If I were Jeremy and I could buy a new car, even though it wasn't lightening fast, I would get the Scion FR-S and call it a day.  It's new, all of the issues if any would be covered under warranty.  It's price point is where I want it to be, it has a back seat so both his kids can go for a ride with him.... I just don't see a negative.

Post by: MyNameIsThien on March 22, 2013, 04:10:24 PM
The toybaru isn't quick out of the box. It really isn't practical. Sure it has 2 seats in the back, but it can barely fit my 2 kids back there. I do have to say, it is a damn fun car to drive. Something fast for under $25k would be a used STi, EVO, or something in that nature.

I'd stay away from any domestic made car. Everything is made poorly. Its not as refined as say an import or euro. Look at the crappy body panels on the vette. I'm just putting my 2 cents in. As for the cobra, just be aware you can only go fast in a straight line. Turning corners is a challenge for that car.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: gargantula99 on March 22, 2013, 04:19:15 PM
i still don't see a negative.  One Kid in the front with the passenger seat pushed up a little, giving leg room to the kid in the back.  The STI or EVO would need to be used to be in his price range.  I say stick to new.

Post by: MyNameIsThien on March 22, 2013, 04:22:56 PM
There is a huge negative to this car for jer if he wants the car now. There is a 6 month waiting list for toybaru. Both fr-s and brz. The contract with Toyota and Subaru is that for every 10 brz made, they have to make 90 gt-86/fr-s.

There is none at any of my Toyota or Subaru dealer. I was just at my dealer to get my windows fixed under warranty. They all say there is a 6 month waiting list. I even talked to the Scion Rep at the auto show that is in town here in Colorado. He even says there is a 6 month waiting list. I have no clue, but I waited 2 months for mines. I got one of the first few in the US.

All bullshitting aside. All "jeremy just buy something" aside. Whats the badest, fastest thing I can buy under $25k? Other than a vette? I've got this urge to say fuck it and I want something fast. But its all relative, whats fast anyways? I can get an 09 STI for $26k...ehhh. I dunno. I need options or opinions.
e46 M3..  Space, luxury, performance.. A bit raw, but its a bit more performance oriented than luxury.

Used A5, or if you go up a bit on price, used S5..

Used GS350.. Used G37S..

What do you guys think of the 2nd gen TSX? I personally think it looks nice on the outside (although I still would prefer the 1st gen). However, I'm only looking at certified pre-owneds, and they're all 2009 or newer. An idea was thrown out to give my car to my sister who's about to get her license, and then get me a TSX. I'm not entirely sure what my budget will be, though. Most of the CPO TSXs are around $22-24,000 with about 30k miles.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

I like that idea.  You looking at 4 or 6 cylinder TSX's? I personally think the CPO warranty is an excellent warranty. If you're going to buy used, that would be the route that I would take.

Now I'm starting to lean towards a 2012+ special edition TSX. I really want the underbody spoilers. If I had them added after the fact to a base TSX, it would cost way more than the extra $1000 for the special edition. But then that would put me from a $23k CPO to a $32k new car. Decisions decisions...


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: cna on April 12, 2013, 08:50:29 AM
Tsx are fun and compact  but for a CPO car am not trying pass 20k when you can basically almost by a brand new one for a few more bucks the thought would make Me feel guilty like what if type moments lol.. Any one else like the new diesel jeeps I think they would be a good as a long term keeper


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

And buying brand new gives you instant depreciation. CPO is the way to go if you ask me.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Jeff Likes Bagels on April 12, 2013, 10:09:31 AM
This is true. Although, it's not just a few more bucks for a brand new TSX, it's more like $10,000 more. It's hard to determine if it's worth the extra money to get roughly 27,000 less miles. It sure doesn't seem worth it. Besides, I'm fairly certain that I won't be able to keep up with payments on a new car. The special edition TSX is nice, but I don't think it's nice enough to spend that much more money. I could just have them throw a spoiler on the base TSX and call it a day. Lol.

I test drove a 2010 TSX 6MT and a 2013 TSX 5AT today. I really want the 6MT, but the exterior and interior is in shitty shape. It also has 40k miles on it, and they're asking a shitty price for it. $23,500 is their initial offer, and $8750 for the trade in. Fucking bullshit when I can find a TSX with less miles for less money. I really want the damn 6MT though. It's the only one in Florida right now. As it stands though, it's sounding like a better idea to buy new. It's about $7000 more, and I get 40,000 less miles. Only downside is that I'll be stuck with the 5AT. Even with the paddle shifters, it's nowhere near as fun as the 6MT. Fuck!

We were just getting the car appraised to see how much they think it's worth. I'm fairly certain we're going to pass the car on to my sister.

I really want the manual. It just doesn't feel right though. I'm a perfectionist, and all the scrapes and dings and other shit really turns me off. I'm also afraid that I'll never get to see an MT TSX again. I'm trying to not be picky though. I've driven a slushbox all this long, I guess it wouldn't hurt to continue the trend. The sportshift on the automatic was still a hell of a lot better than the Accord (albeit the gears felt just as long as the Accord).

I'd wait to find exactly what you want if you're not in a rush. Why settle for something you didn't really want to begin with?

We were just getting the car appraised to see how much they think it's worth. I'm fairly certain we're going to pass the car on to my sister.

I really want the manual. It just doesn't feel right though. I'm a perfectionist, and all the scrapes and dings and other shit really turns me off. I'm also afraid that I'll never get to see an MT TSX again. I'm trying to not be picky though. I've driven a slushbox all this long, I guess it wouldn't hurt to continue the trend. The sportshift on the automatic was still a hell of a lot better than the Accord (albeit the gears felt just as long as the Accord).
If you are looking at purchasing new, then why not buy a new one with an MT?

:werd:  Impatience and impulsiveness is actually part of the reason why I've had as many cars as I have.  Don't settle, because you'll always think about it and keep looking for what you don't have.

I never actually considered that. We would have to get it ordered though. And I feel like they won't budge on the price at all if we did that. At that point they know that I would much prefer the MT, and would use that as leverage to be stiff on the price. Compared to buying a car from their lot, it would be easier to wheel and deal.

I still have a little bit of time before I have to make a decision. I think I'll use that time to figure this all out and decide which route will be best. I really don't want to get a car and still be looking for more.

Use the extra time to save for a bigger down payment too.

I also like this idea. If I can save up enough for a $2500 down payment, I can keep the monthly payment at around $310. I was shooting for $300 or lower anyways. I plan on working the max amount of hours at Mitsubishi over summer so that I can make enough.

But yeah, I think I'm pretty set on the manual. I didn't get to open her up on the road because I've only driven a manual for about 30 minutes total before test driving it, but I did pretty well driving it around a private area. I didn't stall it out once. Even just riding in the passenger seat with the sales guy punching it on the highway, I could tell immediately that it was 1,000 times more lively than the 5AT. When I test drove the 5AT in sportshift mode, the gears were very long, boring, and had nearly no pull.

I really want the damn 6MT though. It's the only one in Florida right now.
I know you said you are not in a rush, but as a FYI, you do have options without needing to order.  A couple of these are leftover 2012 models, which you could use the depreciation as a way to negotiate a significantly lower price.  Some dealers aren't willing to budge on leftover 2012s though, so if you are getting a similar deal on a 2013, then I would go with a 2013.

I'm also not sure how far these dealers are for you, but if you are willing to drive, it's worth giving their internet department an e-mail.

Also, I'm not sure which options you are looking for, but these are all SE models.

I have my eye on that black one in Pembroke Pines. That's about a 3 and a half hour drive away, but it's the exact car that I want. I think my best bet will be to wait a couple more months and look again. Who knows, maybe that same car will be there since everybody hates manuals nowadays.

Couldn't my local dealership theoretically have that one transported up here? I don't know how that works. I'd imagine it would cost a lot more than just making the drive down there, though.

It depends on the dealer.  Both dealers have to agree to the trade.

Use that as a negotiation tactic also.  They'll try and tell you that they only have so many manuals, but tell them that you know it takes a specific buyer for a manual car to sell.

Another thing about the dealer trade; if you get your local dealer to trade with them, then make sure that the car is towed via flatbed to your local dealer.  Dealers hire people to drive the cars from one dealer to another, so make sure to specify that you want it towed and not driven.

Hmm, a friend of my parents is selling an '06 RSX type S 6MT with 150k miles for $5000. Thoughts? I could drive that car for another year or two to save up more for a TSX, and give my Accord to my sister.

The only thing I hate about the RSX is how damn small it is. I'd feel safer in the Accord/TSX.

Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Jeff Likes Bagels on April 18, 2013, 02:41:38 AM
I'm going to go check the car out this weekend probably. I'm starting to like the car more and more after reading about it. I think if I can fit in it and feel comfortable, I'll probably end up getting it. It'll hold me over until I get the TSX (or wait long enough for the TLX). I'm just sick of the boring old point and drive autotragic that most of 'Murica has grown to love. Plus I can't really afford a TSX right now.

But yeah, from what I've read, it has nice crash test ratings thanks to side airbags that I thought didn't exist on the car, it apparently has a nice Bose speaker system, 17" OEM wheels, bigger brakes, better handling, 8,100 rpm redline, and 210hp. I'd be willing to give up size to get all of that. It's also silver exterior with black interior. It's not old man beige so that's a plus in my book.

My buddy gave me his keys to his '06 RSX-S 6MT so that I could keep an eye on his car while he is on military leave. 

If there is nothing wrong with the one your parents' friend is selling, maintenance is up to date, and it's a clean title, I would consider it.

Seats are pretty nice.  The transmission isn't quite as nice as the s2000, but it's a good MT.  OEM clutch is really easy to control, easier to control than the 7th gen V6 6-speed, imo.

It's a little small, but it's really not that small.  It has a decent amount of cargo space since its a hatchback.  I also owned an s2k though, so most cars don't seem small to me,  :D


Title: Re: Car Whores United!
Post by: Jeff Likes Bagels on April 19, 2013, 02:14:45 PM
Well, tomorrow I'll be checking the car out to see if it's worth it. I've already got a few questions to ask, like have the CV axles been replaced, engine mounts, does it leak/burn oil, has the MT tranny fluid been replaced, status of brakes, was the 110k service done, etc. Is there anything else that I should throw in that list? I want to make sure I cover everything since it has 150k miles on it.

I've really been thinking abt a fusion hybrid, 35-40mpg is enticing, esp doing 400miles a week. found one loaded, $4k below book. Only problem is, its a hybrid. Ya gotta drive normal to get those numbers, I was thinking.it would curtail my fast driving...maybe.  I dunno if I'm ready just yet....browsing cars.com I just so happen find an 04 S2k in silver with red/blk leather. Im on the edge. Both have pros and cons.....s2k is calling my name, yeah its small, loud, no room, no backseat and will create problems if I actually need a backseat for whatever reason....but I've wanted another s2k since I.sold my other one...life is a cruel mistress

All of the stupid shit wrong with the Accord was really starting to add up.  So I traded it in.  Didnt plan on it, seriously just went in to test drive and see how it was... but I ended up leavin with a 2013 Accord Sport 6MT.  Litterally fresh off the showroom floor, for a hundred bucks more a month than I was payin for the 2004.

I'm really confused as to what you did Ryan. Over the last couple months, you've put in work. I'm talking about mods and shit like that. All that adds up dude. All are things that could've been parted to try and recoup money but now that's all gone. Plus, you're paying more per month for a new car. It doesn't add up.

Test drove the RSX today. It's okay I guess. It actually has 164k on it. The biggest downer is that the owner never did any maintenance on it other than changing the oil. Never did the 100k maintenance, never changed the clutch, and never changed the transmission fluid. The interior and exterior is in rough shape, but that's to be expected for how many miles it has. If he took better care of it, then I would buy it in a heartbeat.

I may try knocking him down $500-1000 to cover the expenses of the maintenance. My parents are saying just get it and deal with the maintenance whenever. It's the cheapest thing we've found by far.

Oh wow.. Well, if the clutch feels fine, then it may be OK; but I would probably replace it also.

I would try to knock him down in price, IF you are willing to pay extra for the maintenance.

Did you hear any unorthodox valve tick?  How bad is rough shape?

IF I were buying that car, I would consider the following maintenance items:

  • Change all fluids (oil, trans, clutch, brake, coolant, power steering, etc.)
  • Change all filters
  • Brakes
  • Valve adjustment
  • Spark plugs

How's the suspension? any signs of blown shocks?  Any signs of oil burning?

Define rough shape for exterior / interior?

I didn't hear any ticking when I drove it, but it's probably a good idea to get it done anyways.

The main issues with the car are mostly cosmetic. The interior is pretty dirty (which could be fixed up if I detailed it). The shift boot is falling apart, and there is a rather large tear on the driver's seat. On the exterior, there are a lot of marks on the paint all over (however at a glance it looks fine; I probably wouldn't care as it'll be a beater). It's missing one of the fog light covers. In the engine bay, it looks okay, just a bit dirty. The intake manifold has a dark color residue on top, I'm skeptical if it's from it leaking oil or something, or maybe it's just dirt. If I could have pulled off the valve and manifold covers to see underneath, I would have.

As far as the shocks go, they felt fine when I test drove it. The guy swore up and down about how "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." Well, the car may have been fine for the 164k miles he drove it, but it's not going to last if all he's done is change the oil. I'd be inheriting a lot of preventative maintenance that needs to be done. I really don't want to buy the car then have it take a shit a week after. I feel like the clutch is a time bomb waiting to go. And that in itself is like what, a $800 job?

I want to get back into the gen7 arena since I've decided not to do a TSX (only ones I can afford are high mileage).. 

I'm trying to decide if this sedan is worth it because I know the V6 auto trans has issues... 07 V6 AT sedan, leather, one owner-clean carfax, 69k miles...  listed for $13,995

The CRX looks so small.  I bet they're fun to drive, though.  A fully built N/A or Turbo D16A6 sounds fun.

I'd take that LS swapped Corolla any day.  Wouldn't mind a Honda CVCC Wagon with engine swap as well.

I would love an S8.  Buy two, Nel, and ship one here ;D... Again, I'd like to drive the Merc CLA 45 AMG as a daily.

First, I wouldn't build a CRX.  Second, the D16 is the stock engine, I believe.  Just upgrading it would be fun.  I would probably do a B20 or K-swap if I was really researching it.

@Mike- GL with the NA1!!  There is a silver one at work that looks to be all stock.  I'm tempted to put a note on the car asking if they're be willing to sell it.  One can dream.... A little OT regarding the NA1, but there's also an R8 in the same lot.  Now that car is freaken gorgeous.

Car insurance is dependent on so many factors, that you really can't relate it to a specific car.  The type of car is a factor, but so is zip code, driving record, coverage amounts, insurance company, number of drivers on the policy, number of cars on the policy, etc. etc.

Meant to say hunk lol. But that 2.7L v6 is a joke. It wouldn't get out of its own way. They are going to look at an 08 that I just found with 58k for 13,800 with 100k mile warranty. If nothing is wrong with it they will be buying it today. The aforementioned 2010 300 had so many problems. It was gonna need new brakes plus, on the test drive, I got into an emergency braking situation and the brakes didn't lock up. No ABS or anything. Plus you could tell under normal braking that the rotors were warped.

Update: well, they ended up buying the 08. Luckily it has the bigger 3.5 v6 and now I get to sell his old car. This will be tough

I've seen those priuses booking it on the Long Island Expressway.  They're not running crazy 0-60 times and it's not a 14 second quarter mile car, but I suspect they take corners pretty well and handle decent enough for what it is.

I don't know about the 2013 but I drove the 2012 Mazada6 for 6 weeks while my car was in the shop.  I wouldn't say it was bad, but it definitely wasn't something I'd ever buy.  It felt noticeably slower than my Accord and I just couldn't get comfortable in the driver's seat.  It was a good looking car in my opinion and I got better gas mileage than my Accord.  However, by the time my car was out of the shop, I couldn't wait to get out of the Mazda and back into my Accord.

If I had an extra $5k in my bank account I would purchase this Chevy traverse that I've been eyeing in Jersey. It's a 2012 With 56 miles on it. It's a certified pre-owned for $10k off of the sticker price.

A 2012 with 56 miles and its used?  What's its story?  Why is it used, with such low mileage?

Since its a 2012 and we are halfway through 2013 (with 2014s on the horizon), you should negotiate off that extra $5k..

I checked carfax.  It was sold at an auction. I think it got registered and then whoever bought it, didn't take delivery. At which point, it has to be sold as a used vehicle. It's Certified, so I think I should be fine.

This is all hypothetical since I'm not really buying the car. So I'm pretty sure this is the right thread for this.

If you actually do sell your car by Monday, do not feel pressured to by something right away.  Rent a car if you have to.  Take the time to find what you want and for a deal you are willing to pay.

Dealers love the people that get driven to a car lot without a ride home..

OOOORRRRRR, it may be a good thing for you to buy something right away.  It's taken you this long already, lol..

Well, that little old lady that traded it in is someone's grandma. That someone is someone else's cousin. That cousin is friends with someone else and that someone else is Country. Country had put the word out which caused a chain reaction of events that led to that little old lady whom he's separated by about four degrees which means, you owe Country a rimjob.

My bad, I was preoccupied when I wrote that and didn't finish. Stance is when you have rear camber so that the sidewall of the tire sits as flush as possible with the fender/quarter panel.

Here is a civic project for you Jer... It's an EK hatch with a LSx 454, F1a pro charger and nitrous. Projected to make 2400hp. Corvette front subframe and corvette transaxle.

It's gutted, they had to make a tunnel for the shaft from the engine to transaxle and back-half the car for the transaxle. All it has in it Is a seat some gauges and a cage. Plus the corvette sub-frame and the engine won't weigh a whole lot. Realistically, I think they'll be doing good to break the 6's(and that's giving them a lot) on a 28" inch tire.

Went to three dealerships today. Bimmer, Acura and Volvo.

Test drove the 2014 RDX and MDX and honestly wasn't impressed.  They're the best bang for the buck, but I didn't leave like WOW! I want this!!!

Was offered $8,500 for my car.

It's now between and X3 and an XC60.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

Anybody here ever buy a demo car?

We were at Volvo yesterday and was offered a 2013 Volvo S60 T5 AWD Platinum package (fully loaded one) with 6,000 miles for $4,000 less than the sticker price.

Some further info:

1. The car was basically driven by the owners wife the whole time.

2. I didn't get to test drive it because they couldn't find it. We spent an hour and a half looking for it in 5 different parking lots. (This is Brooklyn) we finally found it on a lift in the shop after the shop was closed. Apparently it's in the process of having a CPO inspection done.

3.  It also only had 1 wheel.  We assumed they're replacing three of the wheels bc of curb rash?

4. Didn't get to test drive it.

5. Only saw the car from underneath bc it was on the lift and it's immaculate.  Those from NYC would know what you car should look like from underneath if you've driven on these streets. Scratches to the frame, dents to exhaust parts etc... And this car has nothing.

6. Also on the price, that's zero negotiating bc we didn't get to test drive the car. The guy asked me how I felt on the price. I told him I need to see the car before I can tell him how I felt in the price.


Thoughts???

you have to get used to the interior on Volvo and the placement of things like ac vents and switches but there rockets you get luxury and performance all in one package only thing missing is a backup cam but if the price is right and its what you looking for go for it

I haven't even test driven the car yet, just saw it on the lift. I just got some bs about not being eligible for the 0% financing bc it's a demo car.

Don't worry Mike, if I can't work out the deal I want, it might still be a no-go for them.


Title: Re: Car Whores United!

But I haven't even started to negotiate. I can't negotiate a car that I haven't seen the interior of or test driven.  I get to test drive it on Wednesday.

Other thing is I don't like the fact of having 3 new tires and 1 tire with 6k miles. That's going to be an issue for me as well.

Basically it came down to the taking just $3500 off of a car that had 5,500 miles the rear bumper was scratched and had some paint dings in the paint.

My wife and I decided that we would just save up for a few more months and just order the car that we want instead of compromising.

I don’t know, something different. I may wind up getting a truck (90s F250 7.3L diesel). Just a plain standard cab to haul around a dirt bike for me and my son. I just want a diesel truck. I found a 2011 Jetta TDI wagon for the wife, she hates wagons but 18 versus 40+. And im paying the car note, soo.

That’s the plan anyways. Although, I wouldn’t mind a late 50s/early 60s bug. Found a bagged one on CL done up right actually. That'd be fun.

There's a CBP accord that parks right in front of my job every night. For some reason the guy had it repainted and they added like 4 times the amount of metallics to the paint. At night it shimmers. Looks weird to me.  I've never seen that done to a stock color before, only custom colors.

So, I've been contemplating a J swap lately. To get any real power out of the k24a4 requires a rebuild or FI. So the options are to swap for a k24a2 and all of its needed items or swap to a J for less and have more power and TQ out of the box. I've been hunting around and know I'm going to need the engine w/ accessories, trans, axles, engine harness, shifter box, shift cables and ECU but not entirely sure of what else. The plan is to pick up a wrecked from the rear donor (preferably a 6 speed TL so I can snag the brakes and wheels and whatever my little heart desires) then part what I don't need. Thoughts?

A wrecked 6 speed TL is hard to find out here so that's difficult to say. LKQ has the J30 engine for about $500. Not sure if that's including accessories. Transmission is another $500. ECU out of an 05 6 spd Accord is about $300. The engine harness I'm assuming is about $300 but I haven't gotten a definitive answer on that. Other odds and ends being a timing belt, compression and leakdown, new clutch and single mass flywheel, shifter box, etc is maybe another $1k for the miscellaneous shit and I'm shooting a bit high. All labor done by me at school. A k24a2 from LKQ is roughly $1200. Transmission is approximately $800 (LKQ has none available as of this post). ECU about $200 plus all the other jazz I mentioned previously.

J30a4 swap=$2600ish
K24a2 swap=$3500ish

Wow i would've never guessed that a K is actually more expensive than a J.

Is having more power really worth that much to you? I mean, that's a lot of money man. Thats money that you can put towards another car that has more power to begin with or that can be a little more fun to drive like a RWD maybe? Like that you don't sacrifice the reliability of the accord, that is your daily driver after all.

If it was me, i would get that money and buy myself something cheap, like a miata or something, pretty it up, and use it as my weekend toy to ride to the beach and/or drift around corners full of pedestrians tokyo drift style.

It is, but you know what i mean. New wiring, transmission, a lot of things you gotta pay attention to and a lot of variables with the potential to get messed up.
Notice how i started, "is the extra power really worth it to you?" if the answer is yes? Then by all means go ahead!

You would need and upgrade in mounts also and maybe sub-frame and/or bushings. I know some are the same across, but some suspension components are J specific for the added weight. Have you looked at the cost of FI with re-sleeving your current block?

No.

Bushings, sub frame and aftermarket suspensions transfer over. The mounts are factored into that $1k buffer on top of the cost of the engine and other things from LKQ. Re-sleeving my current block leaves me with no vehicle for awhile. I can't afford that. Going FI also costs a lot more than a J swap. If I were to get a "kit" (I hate that word) and modify it to work, I'm already looking at $4k not including engine management. Sure, I could piece it all together with good parts but the turbo would have to get rebuilt regardless of what the previous seller says if I were to go the used route. A new turbo goes anywhere from $1k to $2k depending on the turbo I select. That also goes into the realm of not being OEM reliable.
Just sell you car and buy mine. Settled.
No. Your shit is cursed.

My mom drove an 07 Tahoe (with the V8) before she traded it in for the TL. It was a really nice vehicle, and she wishes that she never traded. It got shitty gas mileage, like 13 in the city and maybe 15-18 on the highway, but the ride was smooth, and the V8 made it faster than my car in a straight line.  :'(

My grandparents also have a 2009 RL, and I'm almost certain they've been putting in regular ever since they bought the car. Makes me shudder just thinking about it.

All they're doing is destroying the motor.  Acuras usually have high compression motors, so running mid grade fuel will knock/detonate.  Such a shame for the person that ends up getting suckered into buying those cars used.

My grandfather kept telling me that he's never heard any knocking/detonating/pinging, which is why he runs regular. The ECU knows to retard the timing anyways, right?

But even then, the knocking/detonating/pinging isn't always audible, is it? So they've probably been silently killing the motor this entire time. Ironic part is my grandfather is losing his hearing at an alarming rate.

There's so much sound deadening in those cars so you can't hear the engine, that he would never know.

Had one for a year Jer. Great handling,  fast, no torque. Bought it for $6500, got $5500 on the trade in for the Accord. Also, insurance was about 25% more than the accord. I do miss it.....sometimes.

"Thinking" of trading in the Ody on an RDX. Wife isn't 100% sold as it's of course smaller. I'm looking at an 2008 and 2011. I think Z said his wife drives one and said they like it. Just wanted more opinions. How's the ride? Typical Acura? Firm? Z chime in bro..

I've never driven one but sat n them at dealership and feels a lot bigger than the outside suggests. How's reliability with the sh-awd and turbo?


Title: Re: Re: Random ass car whoring thread.
Post by: CrackerTeg on March 05, 2014, 08:24:06 PM
It's a firm ride. Think of it as a tall sports car. It handles like something smaller and lower to the ground. As far as reliability, it's been pretty good. The only thing is the driver's seat motor just failed but I think it's because my wife's driving position is much closer to the wheel than mine. The constant adjustment killed it. Aside from that, it is a good vehicle. You'll enjoy it.

We got the 07 a year ago and can't complain. Don't expect the mpg to be anything like the CRV. It's more like an EVO that can go over higher bumps. Oil changes are a little more because of the mobile1 synthetic that's recommended. I did have to replace the rear caliper a few months back but that's any car and if I could have waited until after my trip, my warranty would have covered it. We don't have the Tech package, but the base sound system still sounds great with the subwoofer. Main downside is no navi and a slightly smaller display. Good cargo room and the trunk cover comes off, you flip it to get the plastic liner facing up and use it as a liner that can easily be cleaned later. Do I sound like a used car sales man or what ;D. Go for the test drive Jer and use the paddle shift.

It's a little late with the share, but I picked up a new daily three weeks ago.  I wanted to wait until I had a chance to clean her up and take some decent photos; but I've been traveling a bunch for work lately and I haven't had an opportunity to perform a new car detail.  Hopefully after my next business trip, I'll be able to wash/clay/seal her and take her on a decent photoshoot.

Just got back from GF test driving a '14 Civic LX.  She has a 2012 Soul and already has 68000 miles on it and it's starting to nickel and dime us... seems like everything for the car costs $100. 

For a 3 year lease it would only be $20 more a month than what she's paying for the Soul and she'd plan on just buying it out at the end.  She drives a lot for work but she's trying to find another job where she won't have to and if she buys it out the mileage won't matter.  Plus the Civic gets better mileage so she'd be saving on gas. (30/39 vs 26/31).

I think it's worth it, but I just wanted her to sleep on it and make sure it's what she wants.  And not test drive it and buy it like I did. (Not that I have any regrets)

Also, I'm pretty psyched about it cause I tried to get her into a civic before she bought the rat rod and she declined because they were too expensive... The Soul was $1,000 cheaper...

Not sure yet. Original plan was for her to drive the Accord but she wants an SUV. Then I was going to mod the Accord but after reading some things Tim posted I stared looking back at the american stuff. Its much cheaper to build a fast domestic. With that said I want something different. Thing like a 60's dodge dart or a late model vette have crossed my mind recently. Issue is I really like the aesthetics of the Honda. Its going to be a long road I think.

This... you shoulda got a Speed. :P

It's basically the same engine in the older Mustang, which put out 300hp. So not sure what could swap over. Intake and exhaust should put me close to 285hp. Hell 0-60 in 6.1 seconds ain't bad for what it is. I'm hoping to get a DA polisher and get some scratches out and really clean it up.

Jer, I drove one of those from CT to Ontario once.  It was nice.  Surprisingly nimble for a midsized luxury sedan. Good luck, hope you keep this one lol.
