      @pe-peron8441 Рік тому

      I know Americans are not very familiar with the car cult of old Europe, but driving an ocean liner as your first car is torture. If you want to get around comfortably with a few friends and be safe, take the train. Cars are made to feel the adrenaline as you drive on the limit and risk crashing, but that's the beauty of it, and that's the only reason why you do it. Get an old Yaris or some other wreck instead: you spend a lot less, pollute a lot less and have a lot more fun
      Edit.: I would also add that the Suburban is likely to be petrol-powered, which is a crime against humanity for vehicles of this kind: they are made to be propelled by a diesel engine, so that you can at least feel the power of the turbocharger; and the automatic gearbox is another thing that should never exist in a first car, but I know Americans do not particularly like automatic or sequential gearboxes

    I didn't have a car till I was 19. I had saved up a tiny bit of money but I spent it on a guitar and amp, because my buddy had a 70 Chevelle for his first car. I would rather sit as a passenger in his car than most cars I could afford. I did finally get a 1996 Dodge Intrepid (3.0 V6). Had it for about 8 years, it was pretty fun (for me), but I don't recommend anyone own one longer than 4 years, because the suspension goes to trash and replacing it will cost about half what the car is worth.

      @@spinnmotion9704 Not true. Title would only say "1996 Chevrolet". Old car. Cheap insurance. Insurance companies don't really charge based on what it is if it's old.
      If you tell them how much you paid or the miles, then you messed up.
      If you're making payments, you basically have no choice but to pay full coverage. Most of the time, it's required.
      When you're getting insurance on an old car say like a 79 Camaro ("1979 Chevrolet"), just be like "yehh It works sometimes. It's a real beater. Just gonna drive it locally down to barber every couple weeks."
      On my '68 Pontiac which wasn't even running yet, I told them how much I paid for it and the miles were 38,000, and they were charging me over 300 a month and it wasn't even full coverage. Big mistake.

    Well here we are, been watching for a few years now and boys, it happened, I bought my first car, it’s a 1988 Toyota supra. It’s an automatic and is n/a but for what I paid for was definitely worth it. Obviously it’s not the smartest choice of a first car I know that already. I just wanted to say thank you donut for getting me in to cars this wouldn’t of happened without you guys.

      Ohhhhhh, did I want one of these back in the day! Wait, I still want one. My 2nd car was I think probably the closest analog of the time, an 85' 300ZX (bought around '96), first car being an 85' Honda CR-X, oh yes, Si (both manual). I would have traded the Z for a Supra in a second though. It is a bit too bad that it's an auto, but you can still have fun with it, and it's still a cool ass car. I say well done son.

To end the story , once hf a yr went by nd after I put good part in the master cylinder, someone slashed my tires n put water in the gas tank so once I got new tires it blew the head gasket n didn't run on 2,3 cylinders. Rest in peace red zx2. 😢
