If I had to drive one car for the rest of my life it's the RS7. Its R8 fast, while being gorgeous and practical. That being said, I love my S3, fast, practical, and relatively low key.
Might save up to buy a Ford Excursion this summer, opinions?

Damn man that Barina (the little blue Chev) looks god damn awesome, wonder what the mods are exactly.

In America I believe they're called Sonics. I generally don't like the non-hatch version much but I like that one.

That is a hatch one, its an RS. Makes the car ACTUALLY appealing, I wonder if the person who built it has a blog and some more photos up. I would love to know where the arches are from also what size wheels those are.

I need it. I must worship at the alter of Loewy
Went to a junk yard a bit ago to get a new button for my shifter and lo and behold, all the normal accords have been pilfered to high hell.
Found a 93-95 wagon and snatched it's shifter handle and button, because it was the only one left.
Handle screw holes are in the wrong location and the button is made to work with a roller and not just the shaft with an angle.
So I used my old handle and took an electronics bread board cut and trimmed to fit where the contact point is to take up that "extra" room and now it works again. Has some pretty solid plastic compared to the old weak ass blue shit.
Here's my saucy little bitch. You wouldn't believe the pickup this little 250 has.

Chevy should'a just built them looking like that.
All these new designs sans corvette and camaro look like someone was overly stoned and threw up, then took that as a design inspiration.

Someone in one of the groups I'm in on facebook spotted this in spokane.

That looks neat as hell and I don't even really care for Hondas, let alone hatches.
it's also mid engined, I assume rear wheel drive, and the guy shoved a V6 out of an 86 acura legend in there.

The people I seen at school with their shitbox ricers made Honda Civic hatches leave a bad taste in my mouth.
Can't get in to hatches. People say that Fiesta STs and etc. Look aggressive and sporty
It's a fiesta and it will always look like a fiesta, a case of constipation face doesn't change that
needs a v8 :buckteeth:
Finally got the new exhaust and bits installed. Now it pops and backfires like there's no tomorrow. Guess it's Power Commander time!

If I had to guess, the fenders are probably some universal fender flares, the wheels are 236/40ZR18 XXR Rims. Would love to have a parts list though. I am considering getting a little hatch and I do like the look of Barinas (what they are called in Aus) and that little RS looks great.

How "easy" would you say making modifications like installing a new oil pump and oil cooling system be on an engine like this one? I have just about zero experience with working on engines, though I am fairly mechanically inclined. It's bored out to 186cc and while I have no issue keeping it at a good temperature right now with conservative riding, I know I will eventually become a fucking hooligan on this thing. I don't want to order parts and then just be completely over my head and have to take it to a shop who will fuck my asshole in labor costs to do it for me, at least not if I can avoid it.
Boys...

Got afew things to do to it. My boss said the head gasket was blown and dumping coolant into the oil. I ran it for 30min and drive it and it only overheated never had cream oil. Also the fans were moving REALLY slow. So I got some diagnostics to do.

Your Grom is awesome! I've never messed with my oil pump so I don't know. In regards to oil cooling, you could go for a bigger oil cooler, but YMMV from what I've researched it doesn't do too much. With my bike as an example, some have gone to a huge NCR oil cooler for like $600 but temps haven't been more than a ~5 or so degrees cooler at the best case. One person removed his cooler from the loop completely because it sprung a leak during a road trip and he said his temps didn't actually change much from normal. Hell, my friend's brand new Iron 883 doesn't have an oil cooler at all.
[QUOTE=Birdman101;52255087]Is that an exposed clutch?[/QUOTE]
It is. Not what I originally intended, but the clutch cover I originally got for it didn't fit the protruding clutch retainer ring that I had. I ran without it for a while planning on getting one that fit, but I just haven't done so. Been riding over half a year so far without it and nothing has become tangled on it, so I just got used to it.

Washed my car, and noticed a nice crack on the bottom edge of my bumper above my passenger side tail pipe. Wonder if some mf'er backed into me. >:(
