Car Enthusiast Club [Now Motorcycle friendly!] - First thread to 150k! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[techswede]

This is a thread about cars. If you are not into that then the door is on the right. 'tis also in off topic.

 

It's finally here. The long awaited and often discussed car thread.

Welcome to the Garage. Pull up a chair and have a cold beverage as we discuss cars

 

It's time to get this thing going! It's been talked about many times in various threads and it's time to gⁱt'r done

 

Rules:

Anyone that's interested in cars can join. 

All you need to do is click the follow button. 

 

Fanboying is looked down upon.

Car guys respect other car guys. If you are into Americana,Japanese cars or european cars or anything in between you are welcome

And respect other peoples opinion. I do not like the 2JZ. You might. And there is nothing wrong with that

Blatantly bashing any cars from a certain market. Be it american cars,Japanese cars or european cars. without basis is dumb. And should not be done in this thread.
This is mostly because it's tiresome to read through and can start an argument. Debate is fine. Arguments are just a waste of time.

 

Do not bash another guys car.

Because it's a dick move. And being a dick is against the CoC (harharhar)

 

Respectfully disagreeing is alright. Intentionally bashing something to bait people is not.
Word your opinions properly and bring up fair points or explain your problems with a certain thing clearly.

 

Can i talk about TRAINS!?

No WinNut. No you cannot. No

 

If you quote someone with a picture in their post. Snip the picture. 

The car might be nice but we don't need to see it twice^^ 

 

Bae means shit. For the love of god.. stop 

 

Get stuck in. Get as technical as you want to get. Ask questions and get answers, Post nice cars (Don't post too many pictures though)

Entertain us with car trivia or tell a funny car related story.

 

Illegal activities are frowned upon.

Endangering other peoples (or your own) lives is not cool in any way. All it does is put you on a list of darwin award nominees.

 

Weekly Discussion Topic : If you had to choose one car that you'd have to drive for the rest of your life.

Including maintaining and insuring and all that. What would it be.

Ebay, search for "Oem" + "the part you need" + "car modelnumber"

You don´t need to buy them from mercedes.

 

Edit: Don´t forget the car model number

Start by asking around at your local autopart stores. Most of them can order stuff for you and show you some options^^

That was the Crown Vic. But it wasn't us that didn't make the driveway (we have drilled/slotted rotors with ceramic pads, AKA, the good shit). It was the other person that couldn't go from 100-10 fast enough.
