Neh, my car's windshield washer nozzles or whatever are located in a smart position, nothing goes anywhere but on the windshield.
Some might come onto the frame surrounding the windshield if I'm doing like 80kph.

Simple solution, get rid of audio system, save weight, and hear 9000rpm in all its glory.

Speaking of windshield washer nozzles, the ones in my moms Subaru spray all over the fucking place. If you turn them on while not moving, they spray a little bit on the front windshield, while the rest goes onto the side windows and the roof. Once you get up to speed, the wind tends to blow it on to the windshield.
Still speaking of windshield washers, you reminded me that I need to buy a new windshield washer fluid reservoir for my truck. Mines got a hole/crack in it and only holds a cup or so of fluid.

Hehe, that gave me a good laugh. I think you could always re-adjust where they're pointing. Don't know if you particularly care enough, but over here in Winnipeg, the roads are a fucking disaster. It's very wet on the roads due to melting snow and there's fucking sand everywhere. Cars are constantly shooting wet sand onto your car. I probably emptied like 1/5 of a tank of washer fluid today just from washing my window every 5 minutes or so.

Engine sound constantly is a long boring song. My cd-player is a bitch and I gotta switch it out but until then I have no audio in my car other than the engine.
and why did you quote that huge picture? ._.
Today driving home from school, there was a Neon SRT-4 stopped at the light to turn into my neighborhood, and he was revving the engine while waiting for it to change. Once the light turned green he sat there for a couple seconds revving, dropped the clutch, and though it was a good idea to try and steer a torque-steer-galore car through a corner with the wheels spinning. Needless to say he got a few feet before spinning out in the intersection, stalling, and then chug-a-lug-lug off down the road.
I laugh at silly FF drivers.

Ugh, ricers.
Funny thing, before he did it, he put on a pair of sunglasses all cool like and checked himself in the mirror
How do people manage to spin out in a FWD car?

The 2011 looks like a portable vacuum cleaner. I'd take the 1990 over the 2011 any day, even if it was free
I'm with you, I really don't like how the body line continues along the back and rises up so high. I do however really like CRXs for some reason.
For a little jap car, I like that 1990 CRX.
[QUOTE=lemon_lover;19501181]I plan on getting a Grand Prix White S2000 with red/black interior in a year or so. The price is amazing considering the performance of these cars. You can get a relatively mint one for around $12,000 easily. Even though they may have 40,000+ miles on them, it's a honda so they'll last upwards of 100,000 miles.
I hope to get a set of Advan RZ's in matte black in a nice flush offset and a InlinePro turbo kit.
Here's a picture i found that's relatively close picture of my idea, but with a hardtop and larger wheels/lowered car
[/QUOTE]
Only 100,000 miles? My 96' VW Jetta GT is at 301,450 miles now and still running perfectly fine, not a single rattle and the clutch has only been replaced once.
Also my parents 07 Civic SI has around 63,000 miles on it already, hope it lasts as well as the VW.

Same thing with the new CTS-V

Also the Evo X.
Why do so many new cars have big butts?

-Go into a corner really fast.
-Let off throttle.
-Done.
I was planning on buying a '92 jetta off kijiji...I called the insurance company for a quote
C$140/month! (for the most basic PLPD coverage). I guess I am not in the market for a car after all :sigh:
How is it that they'll insure me to drive my parents' 2010 Mazda3 for $70/month but for a car 20 years older and worth 2% (literally) of what the new car does the payment doubles??
Question: how much do you people pay for insurance? (also include your relevant personal information...for example: I am 19, male, and took drivers ed)

I take it the insurance on your parents car is on their insurance? I get the impression the theory is they will be driving it far more than you, or if you are driving it they'll be in the car with you so you're less likely to do something stupid.
Certainly in the older car, they aren't worried about the damage you will do to your car, it's the damage you will do to other people and their property.
I'm in the UK so my insurance really doesn't compare but put it this way, I'm paying £66 per month, 19, male, driving license for 2 years, 2 years no claims on a 5 door 1.6l petrol 05 Ford Focus.
Someone posted his new modelcar earlier, and I was wondering, does any of Facepunchs gearheads collect scale models? I collect models in 1:18th scale and I have quite a few.

Looks weird and bland, compared to the current Focus RS.

It came with a shitty non-working Chinese aftermarket alarm with some crappy immobilizer. It activated and all it does is disable the starter motor but not the entire ignition, it flooded my engine.
Gona rewire a bunch of crap now, wish me luck. :ohdear:
