Actually wait good fuck that.

our king has returned

What was the first commodore gen to get an OBD 2 port? I wanna have a mess around with CAN.

Fuck that. How does a competent driver even manage to end up rolling down a hill like that?

>>Jimmy is black edition

coolbeans i dont know what the going rate is for those but yeah mad good luck brah

308s have doubled within the last 2 years.
before you could get a nice mid 80s steel body car for 40k, now they're 80k+

early fiberglass bodied cars are touching 200k usd

noice

Morning all

>mfw car will be stuck at mechanics for weeks because rural and no parts for a 15 year old variable power steering assist rack
kill me

Don't break your car constantly then?

>buy part online because it would be cheaper
>express ship it
>install yourself you lazy cunt or get mechanic to do it
That's what I do you lazy turd.

>LS1
>350ci
Please trip up, so I can filter your posts in the future.

Sell it to me

I cant imagine it being great for actually offroading. Maybe on a gravel road or something like the entrance to Gnangara Forrest sure but once it touches sand you might as well abandon all hope.

>Our savior has returned
I'm excited, also got a shit done on my car lately. Took it for mad skids down at roys road and fucked the steering alignment. Going over 80km turns into Fury Road.

Also replaced the head unit with an alpine speaker so I get to play my music out of the one remaining speaker I have left.

Next step is to start buying better parts, it's a stock 01 Impreza RV. I want to replace the grey parts with stock white bumpers cause it's just not working for me.

Oh jesus

How's ur weekend so far o?

Fucking slow. I was hoping I'd get all my parts in the post yesterday so I could fix my car and go drive it tonight. Instead I've got a leaky rb25 and Jack shit to do

Same

What the fuck it's disgusting

Brother had the front of his civic destroyed by some dude corner cutting last night. Cunt did a runner and couldn't get the plates.

Parents left on a camping trip so I'm having a gatho at mine, gotta get my wheels aligned and rotated. Been marathoning movies all night/day.

I just woke up

>DBT

Dem fuckin hoons at it again, 9/11 story as always

Melbourne strippers, worth every penny

This is why I bought a dash cam with a big battery and memory card, just leave it running all night. Some Habib cooked a skid coming onto my street, totalled the neighbors ve ss and did a runner but the cam got his plate

Will this 2007 Mitsubishi 380 be a good car?

130,000km. Dealer is asking $8000

I don't know much about cars. I just need something reliable to get me around. Do a fair bit of country driving.

Where did you go?

Been spending the weekend levelling up my defence stats

Falcunt LV. 25
ATK: 3
DEF: 14
INT: 0.5
DEX:2

You forgot VIR: 1

>mitsubushit
Yeah i love em last of the aussie made ones before the factory done ded.

Honestly though for 8grand u could get the older AWD Magna which FLIES and its the same price or cheaper maybe a little more k's

FYI 140k is when the problems begin with aussie cars

>Brakes
>Suspention

And other niggly bits but take good care of it and yeah good car, for the money you could get a rwd v8 dunnydoor which uses same amount of fuel or less or even a xr6t.

Good luck user
Yeah nah u also forgot

RAGE: 10

Is $8000 a bad price?

Are you meant to haggle with a used car dealer?

I have never bought a car before.

How much should I be able to get them to take off the price?

What do people think of this 2004 VZ Lumina as opposed to the Mitsubishi?

It has done 110,000km and the guy is asking $6,500.

Yeah u can get the sports version with better everything for like half that price with those k's man just walk away dealers are scum

get a vy.
Alloytecs are shit

Timing chain intensifies

>the sports version
I think it might be the sports version. the ad describes it as:

2007 Series III Mitsubishi 380 ES Sports Sedan AUTO 3.8i V6. Super touring car.

Its the base model go private mate fuck the dealers

redbook.com.au/cars/research/used/details/2007-mitsubishi-380-db-series-iii-87512

he wants too much for it.
you can get a vz ss for 7 grand.

on the topic of vt-vy dunnydoors u can pick up a vx ls1 for around 3-5grand low k's

people dont want v8's anymore = cheap cars.

>people dont want v8's anymore
Lies, everyone i know owns a v8 and wants a bigger one.

Am i a bogan maybe?

If you actually WANT a car.
"What's your best price"
"$$$$$$"
"is that really you best price, that seems like a bit much still"
"That a good deal, let's go in to the office and hash it out"
"B.b.b.b.b.b ut "

Are you financing?

>Am i a bogan maybe?
You are a aussie that loves cars so yes

There's a difference between being a bogan and being an Aussie who likes cars, y'know.

>420
sure weedanon

>Are you financing?
No I have the necessary cash.

I thank people for their suggestions of other types of cars, but I am a bit limited in my options because I live in the country and I haven't driven a car for 7 years so I don't want to have to travel outside of my town to get the car because if I have to drive it home on country roads or in unfamiliar places I will probably crash and die.

So I just want to buy locally so I can take the back streets home and get back my driving skills in a quiet way before I venture onto the highway or into the city.

give us a rough idea where and ill go search carsales and scumtreebay

You can never have enough power

i suppose, i do attend burnout competitions.

try getting 300rwhp to grip in loose dirt

sketchy

Is this your first car?, don't buy an 8k car for your first because you will break it in some way, buy a cheap shitbox to learn in then move up once you're skilled or the shitbox dies

I live in pic related.

iwish there was a skidpad at coffs i was thinking about trying to set one up ill have to talk to the locals see what the go is.

Raleigh Raceway isnt suitable and the closest tracks are in QLD and all shitty qlderness
K give me a sec ill look up ur area so whats ur budget 10k or ?

>Is this your first car?
Yes.

To be honest I thought an 8K car was a shitbox.

I am a responsible person and will not drive recklessly.

>whats ur budget
I really don't want to spend more than 8 thousand but I could spend up to 10 if something was really special.

That ones lardner park, I am fairly sure they rip the burnout pad up every year and build a new one the next year, they have farm world at the same place.

Lol found the car u where looking at

carsales.com.au/dealer/details/Mitsubishi-380-2007/OAG-AD-12848450/?Cr=1

Honestly its overpriced by at least a grand i'd get it below 6000 onroad if i was you and if u cant walk away

Oo that reminds me, immortals burnout was fucking sick, i got 1st degree burns on my face, worth it

youtube.com/watch?v=IBS5FhqgDHg

to the sa user look at something like this

Could easily get the seller to settle at 9 grand max

carsales.com.au/private/details/Nissan-Stagea-2002/SSE-AD-4005565/?Cr=2

Yaris coils going in.
Haltech in tomorrow.
We're getting there lads

post pics ya cockteaser

It looks like a hearse.

There is a lot of driving to get it back home too.

I can't over-emphasise just how important that is.

>get it below 6000 onroad
Is this really possible? I have never negotiated for anything before.

i dont get it are u like 2 hours drive out or something?

How u get around currently?

get a carfag mate to go with u

Or just flat out offer 6000 if they balk go to walk away and if they dont chase u its not worth it

The hearse is located about 40 mins drive away

I really want to buy something in town. The dealer selling the 380 is located just a few streets away from my house.

I currently walk around and catch the bus.

>mate
Yeah I don't have any of them to be honest with you.

I tried to get my mum to let me take her car for a drive to get my eye back in but she refused because she says I will kill myself.

I could book some driving lessons but it would just be such a humiliation since I already have my licence.

So no carfag mates i take it?

Just walk to the dealer, offer them 6000 as its already 500 above market value (ring insurance like aami or whatever beforehand to check this) and offer that.

If they dont take it walk away mate its not worth overpaying for a 9 year old magna as they love to eat money around 100k+

lol i knew that feel stand up for yourself

BE a man

>inb4 im a virgin bla bla bla

>500 above market value
So its market value is $5500? Is that taking into account how many kms it has done?

They don't care how long you've had your license for man, I've been getting driving lessons recently even though I've spent the last two and a half years riding around on a motorcycle.

This, the drivings tests arent a test of driving skill or ability, they are a test of knowledge retention from a stupid book written 30 years ago that no longer applies to the road today.
shit like having to shuffle the wheel around because you had to do that shit in cars without power steering because 1 bump can rip the steering wheel out of your hands without power steering.

Haha anyone remember doing the hazards test?
do they still use that bullshit?

Driving recklessly ain't the point, you're going to ding it and scratch it no matter how careful you are

Not sure about you but to me that seems like a waste of 8 grand

Yeah they do

Yeah I am starting to cool down on the idea of buying a car right now.

I don't actually need one until next year. So I think taking a lesson or two might be the way to go and then borrowing my mum's car for a while and then buying one for myself a bit later maybe a bit cheaper than 8K.

I am just not looking forward to the driving lessons. Embarrassing.

what the fuck?
that shit was out dated when i did it, would think they would have a driving simulator by now a $500 computer would run a perfectly acceptable simulator...

>I am just not looking forward to the driving lessons. Embarrassing.

Again, literally nobody cares man. If they do care then they're shit people and not worth spending time around.

Once you've had a couple lessons and can drive competently enough stick your mum in the back when you go for your next one.

Showing your mum you can operate a car safely will help make it easier for her to go driving with you in the future.

>nobody cares
Yeah it is just me who cares. I don't like looking like a loser. I will have to go with my old driving instructor again too since this is such a small town. It will be awkward as fudge.

>stick your mum in the back
lol no she will become hysterical. She is absolutely nuts.

She says she will let me drive her car if I take some lessons first though.
