Why is everyone so against new cars?

Don't tell me you are on of the retards that say you can repair 2 tons of shit engineering and jewish trickery with more electrical systems bloat and suspension settings.

Heh, they sure as shit do, women all over the world spend 5 digit sums to modify their bodies, whether they have the money or not.

the new SI in the OP pic is lighter than the previous gen. also more fuel efficient

also not to mention it's a better car in every way
falling for the used b/c it's a few grand less meme is insane

>previous gen of 2018 is old
The state of Veeky Forums.

last thing is that people here are complaining that soccermoms are killing the fun car market because they keep buying new SUVs and boring cars and such

we could fix that problem by buying the fun new well priced cars that are surprisingly still on the market
there are so many options but all we're doing is letting them die because we keep buying used (like with the fiesta ST, RIP)

sorry grandpa

>buy brand new civic you can afford loaded with tech, fun to drive and quick enough for DDing
>or buy some AMG for similar price that you cant really afford to maintain because it does 0-60 slightly faster and can burn rubber even though you cant afford tire changes

Lots of people on Veeky Forums pick the second choice

>full coverage required
>under 25
>intent to do shit like track days
>I'M GONNA BUY A FUCKIN SPORTS CAR BRAND NEW YEEHAAW

this

or the old
>buy 3k civic
>10k in repairs/upkeep/in opportunity cost spent working on it
>10k in mods to make it nowhere near close or comparable in terms of performance and comfortability of a new car

the issue is bitching at the new civic being shit and overweight and calling financing the devil because they can only afford a 3k civic from the 90s

Veeky Forums cant afford a new civic or a used AMG

It is in fact, overweight, and overpriced for something you're just going to thrash and crash.

my civic is plastered with toys (that I never use but w/e) and still only weighs 1350kgs

also it has some clever front pillars with increased visibility like the new nsx

I mean I would have loved an AMG and could surely buy one used but it would have been someone elses problem and I actually work so I cant spend all day "fixing" it nor have the cash to buy parts

has warranty so not my problem? lol son

>my civic
opinion discarded

>muh bus
Kay son

>warranty
>fixing something if you broke it
"no"

mechanical failure from ''trashing'' is covered under warranty ftfy

and I pay like 200$ for full coverage a year so??????????????????

oh ya one of my main purchase ideas when I was shopping was an used audi a5 5 door 1.8 tsi. this car is better in every way while being half the price (of a new a5). nvm speed but also quieter at highway speeds and grips great

Like i said in the discord i just dont like the way most modern cars look. although i dont hate them all some i like such as pic related.

civic guy here. if I could afford a porsche (as in, ACTUALLY afford to throw 100k+ on a car), I'd get an aircooled one

new ones are particularly sad to me because of electric steering

Low upfront cost and a retard can perform maintainence. Also cheaper insurance due to the fact that it's only worth getting third party

>Like i said in the discord
nobody cares

People get warranty claims denied when it's discovered that they tracked the car

And crashes definitely aren't so well covered. insurance companies don't like tracks.

Discord link?

yea dude I got a quiet DD that can overtake trucks with ease while keeping 40+ MPGs because I wanna track it

and idk about USA, I know you're basically all cannon fodder for companies, but I street '''raced''' my first car and insurance paid up when the inevitable happened

I can't even think of one new car that is not a supercar that I would want. I am sure they are great and practical for driving to work and getting groceries but I don't feel excitement for any of these new cars.

I could walk to work if I wanted to. Of course I bought a car to track it.

well I couldn't. not that my commute is long (lel @ big city dwellers) but I road trip a lot and neither a used VAG piece of crap or 3k civic could put up with 15 hours of quiet straight driving

miats and that new all road mercedes e-class whatever it's called. I know it will spend half the time in the shop getting it's suspension jerry rigged to work for another 8 hours but damn hot. and imho not even overpriced like most mercedes

Jealous poorfags that can only afford other men's trash

in the long run used cars are almost always more expensive. unless you're the kind of normie trash that trades out his car every 2 months

>in the long run used cars are almost always more expensive
>used cars are more expensive
>used
Was that a typo or do you mean that?

no it's factual. you throw your money to keep the car on the road while the new car just runs

I'm talking about 5+ year ownership. I know you guys lack real passion and think everyone goes through 5 shitboxes a year, but that's not true

Lmao my first car was bought in 2009, which was a cheap 1999 accord. I beat the shit out of that thing from 40k miles up to 180k miles without any repairs on anything that wasn't a wear item. At one point I broke a strut so I replaced the front 2, but I literally slammed that car's rear into a pole in winter one day and sold it to my coworker for $50 since I just bought the 2010 accord with cash. Fluids, plugs, a couple batteries, brakes and tires are all that thing ever cost me.

I paid $6000 for that accord in 2009. I delivered pizza in it for 2 years, and my coworker today parks it next to my current accord so I have my first car still around me in 2017. It still runs perfectly fine and needs nothing - he just gave it another timing belt and water pump.

I've had no car payment to pay for 9 years of car ownership. Feels nice. Not every car is built by VAG.

>financing
>your car
Pick one and only one. And new cars aren't cheaper to maintain, you will have to bring the car to the dealer for every basic service and always respect the schedules if you want to keep the warranty.

I have 2 reliable shitboxes. Stay mad when I park within inches next to your new idiot transporter

Comparing it to my car
>10€/ye insurance
>No interest because it was 500€
>Built just like I want it because I rebuilt it
>Maintainance cheap and easy
>All the choices look like fagmobiles
>I'm not an insecure virgin
>You really really don't

my second car was a brand new 2008 l200 with the 2.5 which currently has 270k KMs on it and I didn't even change the original break pads until 140k. shit it was even on the original factory battery until 2015 and this is a DIESEL

only issue was turbo going into limp mode at 180k and it just needed a new fuel filter

that's factory quality. you will never get a car that reliable from someone else

also I had said 180k after 2 years and so warranty was bye bye. the secret is that nobody else got their incapable ass in that car

I'm gonna keep it as a hunting truck until it becomes an issue and then pay some guy to ''crush'' it on paper and just keep it parked in my garage and dust it

that's not a problem just don't dent it or I'll lawsuit your ass :(

You have a point but I feel like car companies need to realize that what they think is affordable isn’t affordable for a normal person. I wanted the new Type-R when it came out. I make over 60k annually but still couldn’t fit that into my budget when it came down to payments and car insurance

Literally everything u just mentioned and I hate keeping card stock especially new cars.

Old shitboxes > deprecated new shit with nannystate crap pig fat heavy shit

>one or two available interior colors
>about a dozen available exterior colors
>selecting one option often requires adding several other options
>tons of standard equipment you can't get rid of
>one or two available engines

>"""""choice"""""
>"""""built just like you want it"""""
Y'all are retarded.

If it's not brand new, yeah it's old

They're poor and like shitting on people who aren't.

>used cars are almost always more expensive
Are there actually people who genuinely belive this?
You can defend a new car for being new, or being made to your desires, or having the latest and greatest distracting bullshit built into it. But megalol at trying to defend it on cost.

I got my A4 in 2007 for 4k. I've had it 10 years and I've spent another 4k on fixing all the stupid things that broke along the way.
A new A4 in 2007 was somewhere around 25k for the lowest possible spec.
>25 > 8
>used car cost 32% of new
And that doesn't even take into account all the bullshit the dealer will bill you for for as long as you take it there to be serviced, OR the interest on the dumb loan you used to "buy" it.
Nor does it take into account my laziness and just throwing money at the local mechanic. That % would be much lower if I gave a shit about doing things myself.

Fuck me. I can't even. I really hope this is b8. People, actual adult people cannot really be this dense, can they?
Just kek.

>3k car generating somehow generating 10k in repairs
???

you may want to ask whatever mechanic you're taking your cars to a few questions.
