as someone who likes ridiculous cars, a regular ol' daily driver that gets the job done and can fit some poo poo in the back is just as noble as any Hennessey Venom GT :patriot: :911:

Yeah I'm not that into cars so I just bought a Getz because it's cheap to buy, cheap to run and cheap to fix. Also very reliable. Has done almost 155,000 kilometers (96k miles) with no major issues.

It's basically the modern day Beetle.

Yo, I don't care what y'all do,how y'all do or where y'all do it, just keep it gangsta and never pay for an av change, have someone else do it- Ya boy Pixie
I just want a car that drives itself. A car I can just plug into a wall when I get home and not have to worry about getting up early to go put gas. It could look like poo poo on the outside for all I care.

The problem with new cars is that it's impossible to get one that weighs less than 2500 (sans Miata) because of regulations. 25 years ago that was any Japanese C-segment car.

YEah, it's awful. Can you imagine if modern shelbies and challengers weighed even under 3500? And roadsters under 2500 are just missing in action

Alfa Romeo makes some good poo poo still, but that's over the 50,000$ hump and most people spending that much want something thats at least GT sized

I wish I could post a video showing every car everyone here likes pre-1990 and show it going into that masher thing from the Brave Little Toaster.

I'm not good with video making though.

jastiger, i'm going to change your posting limits.

From now on you have to post nice things. Compliments, fun, humor, jokes. etc. If you complain about anything or make a negative comment, I will probate you. If you veil a negative thought in a facade of nicety, like a sorority girl from an SEC school, I will probate you. There is no mercy. Stop being a terrible poster.

Hyundai is just on the brink of starting to really figure out cars. I wouldn't buy any of their stuff yet but it's something to look out for

The Veloster Turbo is almost cool.

Hasn't Hyundia been pretty solid since 2000? I know they had a bad rep in the 80s/90s.

Press the "post new thread" button, see on the left where is says "don't use these tags" next to all the box where you type in the post? You likely used one.

Agreed my 1990 Tempo was so awesome the oil changed itself on everything including the fanbelt, and it pretty much caught on fire while idling at red lights. Some really shifty greeks sold it to me and I'm pretty sure the chassis was frankensteined from multiple wrecks.

Buy a poo poo car drive it into the ground eryday.

They're not bad, but they're not on the list of poo poo to recommend for either economy, luxury, or sporty. Kind of like how Toyota is now: Lots of fair to good poo poo but no amazing deals on economy cars (Solid, but pricy nowdays) and their sports car is OK but underpowered and overpriced. Hyundai isn't overpriced but it's maybe not as good a deal as other things.

I'd buy a Genesis Coupe before I'd buy any of the other cars in its class :shrug:
