What's it like to play chicken with lung cancer?

You tell me poorfag

What's it like to be a the ultimate gentleman?

What is it like to take pictures of other people's car and pretend it's yours on the internet?

Those wheels are hideous

If you guys aren't larping, this thread has a serious case of "daddy gave me money but I have no taste"

It doesn't matter what kind of car OPs parents bought him. He's addicted to sucking drugs out of little white paper cocks. He is an adult dependant on pacifiers. It's sad and pathetic.
And even though his car is expensive, it's really really fucking boring.
So to sum up: drug addict, pacifier dependant, boring car.
Nice work OP, try again later when you've grown up some.

> Feels great actually
That's the issue..it distracts you from the fact that it is bad until your laying on a hospital bed dying with your family sitting over you crying.

You tell me with that 5k old ass range rover

Kinda like having a bad habit that will eventually make you look and feel like shit.

I've used both man and honestly the bus is not as bad as going through all that.

If we had 24/7 busses, maybe I'd agree, but I can't sacrifice my freedom to conform to some bus route.

Having a mental handicap does not qualify you to park in those spots. They're for a physical handicap, kind of like your stubby penis.

did he died?

if you're poor you're just glad to have a car

good thing he wore face protection.

You're all poorfags.

Nice 300 with a body kit poorfag lmao

Sometimes it's not all that bad though. I've had break downs become kind of enjoyable moments.

Its not your car u cuck

Someone post the civic pasta with a few simple mods so we can end this thread already

on Taiwanese Domestic market a/o/tomotive trading card website<
doesn't recognize g wagon

Literally worth less than my motorcycle; I just bought a run-down Rolls Royce for fun, too, because I like owning shit cars and fixing them. I bet that, if given a socket wrench, you'd try to shove it up your ass instead.

Hire a professional photographer shitskin

This pretty much summed it up. Thanks for reminding me why I bought a brand new car this time around.

I can pretend I drive a Bently as well! I actually know what biturbo means though!

what shitbox do you own?

I'm still mad jelly of those bikes. You need to get pictures the next time you're out there

Gladly, but, it will be a while.

Why is it that rich people like us only ever have blurry, awkwardly positioned, dark cell phone pictures of our cars that we own?

Because the funny thing about rich people is they tend not to know how to use their expensive shit for some reason.

Great minds think alike.

Nice, mine didn't have that cool LED diagram of the engine, that must be an EU only thing

>>no AC anyway, only heat
oooh look who's all fancy over here with his working heater.

How does a heater even break? Isn't it literally a tube that runs from your engine to the cabin? Even if the fan doesn't work, the heat still gets in if the vent is open

Heater core starts leaking, so it gets bypassed.

The Buick I bought was like that.

In order to replace the heater core the entire dash had to come out.

No biggy, but everyone knows plastic doesn't do well in negative temperatures.

Ended up using a big buddy heater inside the cabin to warm it up to get to the heater core. Never again.

Dash creaked and squeaked after that, despite the fact I didn't break or bend a single tab.

Buy replacement heater core, run hose to said heater core on the floor, zip tie computer fan to it for winter use, bypass in summer; problem solved.

i dunno
my grandparent's bought me my first car when i was poor and they felt bad for me and i haven't been poor since

normally you have to pull the engine to access that. you got lucky

Mine has more power though.
$300? Lol, try 910€ per set

what its like to be rich and waste money on some shitty brick that gets rekt by a civic?

>He's addicted to sucking drugs out of little white paper cocks
I think op is a faggot but it's hard to find anyone being an enlightened fedoratipping kissless, friendless neckbearded virgin like you.
And I am vaping right now.

Can someone explain what is happening here?

For such an expensive car that is some seriously cheap and nasty design and assembly.

The rail is being flexed similar to how a catapult works.
When he cut the metal theres nothing holding the rest of the rail down so it springs back into its straight position.

its built better than your civic poorfag.

you people are so salty

Better than being asian or living off my husband's wealth.
:^)

>What is it like to be poor and drive a bad car?

More like

>What is like to be a poor car enthusiast and not owning a car?

It feels bad user...very bad, especially when you have to use the family car.

Its a Canadian thing but also a women's thing. M5 came in for an Etest, it has the electrical issues so the headlights and fan must be in the off position to start it, 1st thing I see is the CEL I tell the lady if will fail probably, "it's okay it's just a electrical light problem go ahead"

2 cat efficiency codes and a whole lot of abuse to that poor thing.

Christ look at the dust. Get the fuck out of your dad's garage or start cleaning it you little shit

>price == quality
You're a delusional faggot. Civics, especially older models, are built amazingly well. Why else do you think you see so many destitute niggers making them last 200k+ miles on shit maintenance.

hey man can you do me a favor and just red pill me on exactly what I need to buy (with regards to vape products) to blow huge ass vape clouds? no bullshit, I keep asking this question in vape communities (forums, sub-reddits, IRC, etc...) and they all just tell me to fuck off

LOOOOL
even though i hate elitist faggots like the one in this thread but christ man, who is delusional if you are comparing a fucking BENTLEY to a CIVIC

>>>>>>v8
Fucking poorfag, couldn't afford the W12 eh?

>its built better than your civic poorfag.

And yet they still use cheap, multi-part, visible joins, cost cutting fitment and design for key components like the steering wheel.

That is seriously the sort of thing i'd expect to see on cheap, mass produced garbage like a Civic, but not even Honda do that.

It's tacky and cheap.

Tell us about the pictures of super cars you have on your walls next. Exclusivity and price is not an indicator of overall quality, it's an indicator of status.

I'd wager a Civic would actually be built better than a Bentley.

Why are you taking a picture of someone's else car.

>LOOOOL
Back to r/cars, you retarded 18 year old.

wew lad, you can be reasonable when you sperg out on rich elitist fags, you can't win by saying your civic is built better, that's just bullshit.

found the civic owners,

so much better built than bentleys
t. butthurt poorfags

>telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/road-and-rail-transport/11537964/Bentleys-are-the-least-reliable-cars-says-survey.html

a civic is more reliable then a bentley, who would have thought.
this automatically makes a civic a better car i wonder why these richfags don't just buy a civic and stfu

>damage control time

>why these richfags don't just buy a civic
I dunno you delusional child, because a civic isn't a status symbol maybe? Once again, for the third time now, price is not an indicator of over all quality.

Steering wheels wrapped in the anus rims of Tibetan monks are not an indicator of quality. Extinct rhino semen coated laminated shifting knobs are not an indicator of quality.
Unborn african migrant children skin seats are not an indicator of quality.

Why do most poorfags immediately default to

>waaaah fuxk you and daddy's money you shuld get a loan from the banks like me and work a salaried job

Reminds me of the retards who think that having the same plan as 95% of the population will eventually make them wealthy.

>I'll go to school and get a job working for someone and I'll find a wife and have a kid and then die

Nice bait user

I love doing it.

Fuck, are you 12 and just have the fucking DARE program at your school? Grow the fuck up and stop being a fag. If you don't like smoking don't smoke, don't be a fucking SJW acting like you're not pathetic when you're posting on a chinese girl cartoon website.
Also, everyone fucking dies, you should get used to that fact.
fag.


The proper placement if you've ever driven a maneul

A civic doesn't have sheepskin floor mats though.

Having fun detailing richfags cars for minimum wage?

If I was a rich person I wouldn't waste my time here on Veeky Forums.

In addition to what said, it can become plugged by debris in the cooling system. Also, even if the heater core itself is fine, it can fail to provide heat if the coolant doesn't get hot enough, which can happen if the thermostat is stuck open or missing.

> Stop on hill
> Handbrake on
> Trickle backwards
> Have to use the regular brakes too

Don't forget parking on a hill and having to put it in gear because the handbrake just doesn't work.

Even rich people have autism

what it like to be a fucking slav?

Here's the real question. What do you do as a living?
