Your first car

What's was your first car, Veeky Forums? I got my license a while back and I've been saving up. I'm around 5K euros at the moment. What do you recommend? I've been looking at an MG ZR 160 but I'm by no means am expert.

1996 Volvo 960

ZRs are great. Just make sure the head gasket has been changed to the uprated one and it'll be reliable as hell. Also the facelift ones look better

1990 Cutlass Supreme International

It was in nice shape, but I wasn’t really into it. My dad kinda pushed me into it because “jap cars are tin cans, small, and you can’t get parts for the,...”

You retards here at Veeky Forums would have loved it though. It had a digital dash, split bench seats, burgandy velour upholstery, and a very early 90’s aftermarket Pioneer stereo.

After two more garbage W bodies, I told ,y old man to stuff it, and bought imports since then. Much happier ever since I transitioned to imports.

Looking at a couple options for my first car as well OP. Just really easy beginner stuff though. Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic/Accord. Any advice on these ones as well?

What is your budget?

For anything from 2007-2016 I’d be looking at the accord over the civic. Honda dropped the ball on civics over those years.

Get an Acura TSX. Multilink suspension

Budget is around $5k. Although I'd prefer to keep it below $3k but I understand that is probably just a pipe dream.

Seems most Acura TSX are around $5k, how do they compare to the Honda Accords and Toyota Corolla?

lel, my dad was and kinda is the same way unless it's German, he doesn't mind German imports but God forbid if it's a nip car
He bout flipped his shit when I pulled up to his house in a Civic
'82 baby btw

It's basically a Euro Accord Type R, it's a mid size sedan so it's bigger than the Corolla and the gas mileage is a little worse, but it drives like it's on rails for a FWD sedan and it's reliable as all hell, especially from 06-08
