Talking about things automotive related and bosting ebin memes So, to those who are reading and to those who care, I'm trying to buy myself a new car here and being poor I don't have a large budget. Should I A) Buy the cheapest shitbox Corolla/Civic I can and just generally not give a fuck? or Buy something a bit nicer, but still a shitbox like a BMW 3 Series or a Nissan Silvia.? I'm genuinely conflicted as to what I should do.

Considered that, but there are a few things stopping me. Uses too much fuel (poor) Bogan image Finding a manual Commodore that hasn't spent most of its life doing fully sik burnouts is impossible

Buy a beater Mustang or Camaro. 2. Learn everything about the car by rebuilding it. This car will be like a son or daughter to you. 3.Paint it a color that truly emphasizes who you are as a person. 4. ? 5. Drown in pussy/dick. Whichever you want. Learn to be a real man/woman.

Pretty much only the body was good. Gutted it, cleaned it and rebuilt it. Right now I'm putting a completely new engine in it. Going with a Z28 5.4. It's also gonna get a new paint job afterwards, it's starting to chip off in some places.

You gotta find the Aussie equivalents then. Maybe a Falcon, then you can go Mad Max all over everybody's ass. EDIT: Oh hey, that red Mustang on the bottom is the same year model and bodystyle as mine! EDIT 2: Holy fucking shit! A 1996 Mustang for twelve grand? WHAT THE FUCK??? That's literally a $2,000 car over here. I could buy them and make mad profit selling them over them over there!

I would love an XB hardtop but boomers and Mad Max wannabes have driven the prices up to the point I can't afford it, Then there's the whole issue of P-plates and not being able to have a V8 or turbo car for a few more years now.

I agree that the Corolla wasn't special until 2010s though (actually it was ugly in many generations!) But if you want something better I suggest: Nissan Maxima 2014-2016 Link: www.topspeed.com/cars/nissan/2016-nissan-maxima-ar167474.html Or you're a Car freak an can't be satisfied until you get Lamborghini and Corvette... then I don't know what to say.

I often use shitbox as a term of endearment, and at my price range the kind of Corolla's and Civic's you're getting are AE82/AE92's and EG's which after 20+ years of use are shitboxes
