A week before I sold my AE86 and got my MR2, I drove across a beautiful winding highway besides the ocean.
The 86 is slow but takes corners like a champ, specially with my Tokico HTSs and other suspension mods. Every corner, I was driving balls to the wall, having the rev happy engine scream, making great use of my Koyo radiator and stock oil cooler, so much so that my floorboard was melting my shoes.
I had some overconfident Merc with tons of body roll try to catch up with me, it was so fun, I miss her so much.
I didn't get a chance to drive my MR2 much this summer but I hope I can have the same fun with her next summer.

Doing a brake stand in front of my high school in a 1979 Ford F-150 with a transplant 429 thunderjet. Guys jumping up and down in the box to get the smoke to twist like a horizontal tornado. Racing the guy who sold me the truck in his Mustang GT (1991), again in front of the school (rural), and coming a car length behind in the quarter mile. Drinking brewskis on spares in the student parking lot.
Man those were the days.
Jack Johnson
I had an 02 Mustang GT too. Loved it. Old blind bitch tried to kill me

>buying a bmw and not expecting to pay 3x its value for repairs Even better >buying a bmw without the knowledge to fix shit yourself But by far the funniest thing about this >buying a bmw while working at a job where you dont even make min wage half the time Those reciepts put you ~3k in the hole, how much did you pay for the car?
Gavin Ward
Us pizza boys at high volume stores do absurdly well, for the record.
Paid 5 and change plus bullshit dealer/tag transfer fees/state tax for the car, came out to like 6.5? out the door i think. Dealer wanted 37% finance rate (No credit at the time), nah fuck that lemme call up Wells Fargo, Bam, 5k loan at 4%
I had an idea of what I was getting into, but I did not anticipate this. I didn't just throw it into the shop by the way, I did all the brakes, control arms, aux install, speaker wiring, subs, i re-wired one of the $1200 swiveling xenon headlights..
also it's a vert 330ci

>dent side with a 429 Oh yes
Carson Kelly
Maybe youll get lucky and winter will be as short as last year.
Kevin Clark
Not everyone is as technically skilled as you are. Not trying to come off as crass or jelly.
Sebastian Phillips
If you can afford 2 bmws on a delivery guy salary im clearly in the wrong line of work. What work did the shops do? Those more expensive reciepts make me think engine or trans work
Aaron Moore
>technically skilled not even there are 1000 youtube videos instructing in detail how to replace every single e46 part
Anthony Stewart
SAME my e46 3 series drinks oil like a cunt.
Liam Murphy
the big ones are for the *entire* suspension ball joints lower control arms tie rods bushings, tires, struts, all that shit, the $200 is for a KEY
a seven hour shift at my store, you'll make over a hundred in tips alone every single day. I made $180 in eight hours on 26 deliveries.. killed a tank of gas that shift alone clearly..
mine only leaks a little from the oil pan

You don't have time tracks in your town user?
James Bailey
This sounds like something he made up on the spot.
Jaxson Cruz
This. Please explain.
Adrian Rogers
Also used to deliver pizza with my 3-series. I babied the thing and then it up and decided to blow out the coolant reservoir and melt the upper radiator hose. Never truly recovered after that. Keep a close close eye on your cooling system mate.

Good times, man. Stupid, but good times.

Also >winters of 9 months You do not live here you lying fuck. It's like 4 months of snow at most.
Samuel Powell
Could be worse. Buffalo, NY used to routinely get snow from October to May.
Of course, lately, there have been a couple of green christmases, so I dunno anymore.
Dominic King
man I want an AE86 super bad not just because muh initial D but its just so damn comfyyy

We've had green christmases for so many years here in MN I've stopped expecting anything else. Although that El Nino shifting cycle thing supposed to flip back soonish IIRC.

When I lived in rural Indiana, I remember several green Decembers, but the 10 year old kid from Buffalo in me always feels a little let down when there's not 2-3 feet of lake-effect snow outside to make tunnels in.
Camden Wilson
Can you show us where these time tracks are?
Ethan Evans
You are going to love your mr2, trust me. It feels like you have a rocket strapped to your ass.
The most fun I ever had in my aw11 was taking it to the angeles crest highway at sunset with one of my best buddies and blowing out a tire for the first time drifting up and down a 30 mile stretch of pure mountain beauty.
Luis Davis
Before I ever owned my own car I delivered shit in a crappy old dodge caravan owned by my boss. There was one freeway that I would always take the interchange at a reasonable speed and overtake everybody for fun.
On the streets I would drive to the limit around turns while obeying road laws and try to pass people if I could as well. Eventually some faggot in a cuv got pissed that I was trying to pass him in my older car and decided to block me. Whetever, I will just merge in behind him right? Nope. He slows down to block me off and I end up taking a mirror off on a bus due to my poor brakes/heavy load and get fired. I hate LA traffic.

>Finally got a decent car in comparison to the 20 year old dying shitbox I owned, 1.6l 1991 mitsubishi gallant >buy a 2016 Fiesta S >Feels a million MPH faster, very tight gearing >driving up and down, speeding through ledyard twisties
Never driven an actual sports car but I'm pretty happy with how responsive it feels.
Dont know about all that rust stuff, my Gallant has like no rust anywhere on it and I drive it all through the winter and never washed it
