Someone tell me about cars

[Chun Liroy]

Yeh wasn't replying to you there. As for the convertible that is a Mazda Miata; that one wasn't really a suggestion though since convertible and shit.

I see. I think my head would go through the roof of a miata, rofl.

accord coupes look similar to civics but are much better constructed imo

Will keep in mind broseph, thanks all. My family buys Mazdas, my dad has a 2000 626 which I drive a lot. I dunno why I never thought of getting one tbh.

accords are great but if you're looking for godlike gas mileage the civic is king

[Sera]

Need to know a few things:

How far will you be driving it routinely?
Will you be taking it on long distance trips at all?
How much $ are you willing/able to drop on gas?
What is the one thing in a car you can't live without?

Day is correct, buying new is terribad. Also, skip import cars that are not asian-made -- they're lovely but expensive to fix.
Camrys will run 500+k miles, easily -- but the gas mileage on those isn't god tier. It's passable.

It all depends on how you're going to use the car. Highway driving or city? Long distance? Daily? A couple miles a day? Need to know more about your daily habits to really give good advice here.

This is where the cars live. Getchu one.

can't not hear his voice

[Howie Roary]

buying new is fucking retarded btw

I just saw my brothers buy one for 6 grand or less and sink like 1600 in repairs and then 900 and then 450 and bla bla, what a mess

Well to be honest, currently it wouldn't be much. My job is on campus, I live on campus and classes are on campus. It would be for other things, grocery. Random trips to Miami, or beach or wherever, movies etc. Currently, having a car is not imperative, but that could (read: will) change in a year once I go to grad school, and who knows what my driving habits will be there as well.

oh, your version of it in the US sucks, I think it's like 8 bucks an hour here

and lol at you asking something in a thread and not googling it after that whole stink before, yeesh

[Chun Liroy]

Still mad about that? yeesh

[Howie Roary]

not mad, no, just always thought it was so ridiculous, that when I see you do it I'm like

[Howie Roary]

it's one thing to troll with that approach, but you seemed serious and I always thought that was so goofy

[Chun Liroy]

it's one thing to troll with that approach, but you seemed serious

I guess we'll never know then huh

[Howie Roary]

Someone entertain me. I had to watch my two little nephews today because my sister had a stroke last night.
