[QUOTE=evilweazel;51960677]Well, that's probably the nicest vehicle owned by an FPer, so congrats on that! :v: [editline]14th March 2017[/editline] Nicest owned by someone who hasn't killed someone street racing anyway [editline]14th March 2017[/editline] Unless you have something you need to confess?[/QUOTE] There is a jag person here that has some fancy blueish jag or so.
[QUOTE=Meller Yeller;51960731]I've liked the newer Cadillacs for a while but never realized they were actually in my price range. I think I got a pretty good deal at 16k (~50k miles) for this one.[/QUOTE] Really? Huh. That's a chunk cheaper than I thought. I mean, I guess it is a 6 year old luxury car, so depreciation and etc. But still, I really like them carz.

[QUOTE=evilweazel;51960823]Really? Huh. That's a chunk cheaper than I thought. [/QUOTE] Not gonna lie, that's a big part of what sold me on it. There's not very many around and everyone assumes it's way more expensive than it actually is.
I need to hear your guys' opinion about whether the following is responsible or not. I'm close to getting my drivers license and I would love to get my own car that I can use to go to places in the weekend, have fun with and gain experience with. However: I'm still going to be a full-time student for the coming four years. I will have to get a loan to pay for school and I'm not quite yet sure whether I can take a job next to school. I will have the money to pay for the car itself. However, the taxes and insurance will mean I don't have much cash to spend on other things. I can take a bigger loan but after 4 years of ownership this will add up at least 3-4k to my final debt. Thinking about it now it doesn't seem too much when paying it back in terms when also having a job.
[QUOTE=evilweazel;51960823] Never saw that, neet. What model?[/QUOTE] I think it was an XF, had a real nice blue colour
[QUOTE=The Decoy;51961359]I think it was an XF, had a real nice blue colour[/QUOTE] thanks for the backup bro I just knew it had pretty dilly's was blueish and was a jag.
There are several jags, a couple Mercedes, someone had a s2k, another guy who doesn't post in here all that often has a model S
Why don't they flaunt their cars around? Oh nevermind they probably would make us fell like peasants. :'( [sp]get that cheap o chebby off the top of the OP how dare you have two mediocre vehicles[/sp]

I mean, c'mon, that's a VERY eccentric collection. And this would have been a mailed letter, yet the paper doesn't have any folds in it. It's EXTREMELY unlikely they would send a full size envelope for a single page, which this appears to be. And the poster deleted his account shortly after this thread was made.
Ugh I'm a petty showoff cunt. Don't forget my Jap Ferrari :v: [URL=http://s465.photobucket.com/user/isaact1234/media/Mobile%20Uploads/DAF48570-9BF4-466A-8CA0-658D193DD6AC_zpsmo4gmmpw.jpg.html][IMG]http://i465.photobucket.com/albums/rr13/isaact1234/Mobile%20Uploads/DAF48570-9BF4-466A-8CA0-658D193DD6AC_zpsmo4gmmpw.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

[QUOTE=Lerlth;51959584]Hmm. I thought you had an electric trans? I was thinking about changing my Daytona over to a RMVB but then I'd need to figure out how to lock it up. It'd be kind of stupid to hook it up to the relay. Hit it at a dead stop and stall the engine, heh.[/QUOTE] Well it did have a big clunky 5 speed, but Im going with a 48RE which is an electric trans, but the RMVB bypasses all the computers and leaves all the shifting to you. All it is for the lockup is a positive and ground wire, once they complete a circuit I think its a solenoid that opens and that locks it up, same for the OD. For this I dont think it allows lockup in first gear (depends on the valvebody specs) but you just have to remember what you're doing or you can stall it :v: Its certainly different to drive, but unlike anything I've rode in.
Bradley's buddy, who's name I can't remember, had the s2k, and an ~84 supra [editline]14th March 2017[/editline] There was a other guy with a 1jz swapped mk3 supra too, but I can't remember his name either. :v:
I almost bought a Mark II Supra a few weeks ago but it lacked tires and I desperately needed a semi-ready car, which wound up being the Sunfire GT. Got bought before I could look at it anyway, even if I had managed to find a friend with a trailer.
Fedex: We cant ship that box because it has a grease stain on it Me: You shipped it with a grease stain to my front step. Still paid $8 for a box to put the box in

[QUOTE=Del91;51962521]I have an 85, parts are...Uncommon.[/QUOTE] I love the looks of mk2 and mk3 Supras, even more so than the last gen. But that's always what I hear about them, that the aftermarket is very sparse for them.
[QUOTE=Strontboer;51959236] -New pressure bearing thing? (Whatever its called in english) [img]http://i.imgur.com/ZxWp6K5.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE] We call it a throwout bearing. :)
Here's one for the front page, DP [t]http://i.imgur.com/Z1efzz7.jpg[/t]
[QUOTE=DuCT;51963998]I love the looks of mk2 and mk3 Supras, even more so than the last gen. But that's always what I hear about them, that the aftermarket is very sparse for them.[/QUOTE] It's more worth my time to just swap in a 1j or 2j and mk3 running gear just so parts are easier to come by. :v: Can't afford that shit though. One of the really big shops that made parts for them shut down like 2 years ago too. :\
[QUOTE=evilweazel;51961598]Where are all these people?? I have only seen people's (including my own) shittyboxes[/QUOTE] I've got a 2015 F-150 Lariat SuperCrew that is the most luxurious thing I've ever ridden in, I just haven't done anything with it yet. Still paying off that ~$50k note.

I normally ship with UPS because FederalExpress can suck my dick [editline]15th March 2017[/editline] It also took me 30 minutes to ship this despite only needing them to put a box in a box unexpectedly. Some old guy didnt have a label, or box, or packaging, or anything. Just the item. And then was surprised when it cost $85 to ship it to the Canary Islands.
well, i bought this thing a few weeks ago, as my first car [T]http://puu.sh/uKwCn/ebfd6d29a7.jpg[/T] 206cc is the only good peugeot
