>Or am I a dumbass for even considering this overpriced cali shop?

$100

The 92 is probably the better, most likely fixed any issues the previous models had.

As to whether you should buy a R32 or not, I don't know. $17k is a lot of money.

Traffic Jam Wave

Balt Wave

Needed coffee, did a run before I hit the store.

It smells like absolute ass and the long stretch and first few corners are stained brown. Our touge is scarred!!!!

I'M FINALLY FREE MOTHERFUCKERS

Welcome back to dry land, you salty sea dog!

I would go with the '89. It looks like it's been better taken care of overall. Is that bubbling on the passenger side of the dash on the '92?

Sorry, but it's not worth that much to me. I'm too much of a bitch to go without cruise control anyway.

I feel like the interior is in better shape on the 89, so $1800 extra on the 92 is paying for basically 8000 miles and an intercooler.

As to the second point, it IS a lot of money for an R32, but I'm kinda broke too, so I need to
f i n a n c e
and that means a dealer. Montu only imports junkers these days, JDM Auto has super limited inventory, and Jap Classics is hit or miss.

Thank you. Now I need to find out why the MGB won't start despite being moved only two weeks ago. I don't know if it's out of gas or the battery's dead or the starter's fucked up or what. It barely turns over slowly, and then the starter just grinds on the flywheel.

I think it might be the battery, honestly.

On a side note, I was prepared to buy JC's all stock 92 Toyota Aristo 3.0V but someone else beat me to it literally minutes before I called.

That said, I took a look at this Taurus today. Was in pretty good shape, and liked what I experienced. I don't know how people can call that cockpit cramped.

houstoncargovans.com/2015_Ford_Taurus_Houston_TX_268571340.veh

Honestly if it wasn't white I would have tried haggling over it today. Going to be taking a look around at other cars for the next week now, though.

To each their own. I'm the Skyline guy, and it seems we have wildly different opinions on how to spend $17k.

People call the inside of the Taurus cramped?? There's room to hold a banquet inside those things.

I already have a "fun" car. Right now I'm in the market for a comfy DD that I can actually drive in Houston traffic.

Yeah. They said that the big center console makes it really cramped.

why spend $17k when you can buy a cheap ass volvo and be comfier than any motherfucker on i10

Probably due to what looks like a double wide, and fairly tall center stack.

Fair enough. It looks like a great deal, but keep an eye out for Aristos. Seriously, I'm still kicking myself for missing on this one:
japaneseclassics.com/vehicle/1992-toyota-aristo-3-0v-2/

The fact I'm a hungry skelly prob helps it seems roomier.

Wise words

What part of town do you live in?

Hey, a double wide center stack just means a double armrest; and everyone knows that's all you need come rush hour.

North

Pluss you can play solitaire!

Because at this point I want a car that is less than 5 years old, and I know the only new Volvo that would be at that price at that mileage would be that hatchback they made.

Jersey Village now, the "okay at best" part of town. Former resident in Pearland.

plus you really don't want a volvo made past 1995 minus a few exceptions. At least you know what your looking for.

ayyyy, my third trips of the week

It was kinda scarred before. Give it some time with cars driving over to clean the road.

well done brother sir

this is why night wave is my home

Night Wave is my city.

So meet Saturday at Otto's?

I didn't know sully smoked

Thick pillars and thick console makes normies cry

>British engineering returns
>Spoderstang returns
who is next

I'll be honest, I'd love if I could find one with AWD. But those just aren't common in Texas. There's one at the Carvana "vending machine" out near Katy, but that would require me to give money to Carvana.

Or I could pay $500 and wait 3 weeks for Carmax to transfer this one from Colorado once its title gets worked out.

carmax.com/car/14985192

Neither option seems that good.

any reason why you want AWD?

I think that's the plan. I'll be there, although I may not be able to get there by 7.

Dracula. Dubs confirm.

Because I've literally never owned a vehicle that didn't have power to the rear wheels. I've got an irrational desire to have at least some power going to them, even if the Taurus' AWD system is biased 55-45 at the most.

damn nigga, those are some fancy quads.

if dubs

dracula comes back

if dubs ur gey.

you didn't need dubs for that

wtf i love dubs now

...

I tried

Alright, enough of this nonsense. Back to Houston bullshit and cars please.

Yes Sir

No.

MEET ON SATURDAY

Let's fucking do this

I'm going.

>friends having a welcome back party for me on Saturday
>MGB returned to its natural inoperable state

Well rats.

It's getting there

Well shit. Might be able to ride with someone.
That's about what it is down here.

23.5MPG

not too bad

That's better than the Fiesta (22.5) and the AW11 (18?). What are you, some kind of hypermiling fag now?

Grandma mode, minimize braking and acceleration.

How the fuck are you getting 22.5 on the Fiesta?

Boiracer mode, minimizing braking distance and maximizing acceleration.

I wonder if any of these lurk here

Well I guess I could go test drive it to see if it feels any different than the FWD one.

7 is good
